Liam's POV."What is it you are telling me?" I turned towards the detective behind me with a huge scowl on my face."Sir, we are doing everything possible....""And yet you haven't found her yet?" I cut in abruptly. "We are quite close, it's taking a bit of time but I promise you, we will get to her soon," "It's been a whole week, I made it clear how fast I wanted her found!" My fist came down hard on the bar counter, drawing the attention of others at the bar but I cared less. All I wanted was to set my eyes on Emily again. "I'm sorry...""Leave..." My words were laced with pain and defeat, I was beginning to embrace the reality of my situation. Emily might never be found, she could be on the run from me. Who wouldn't be? She endured more than anyone could. "Sir...""Leave immediately!" I bored out my frustration through a loud scream.I didn't need to raise my head from the bar counter to notice they were gone. How did I ever think that Emily will be found despite all that sh

Chapter twenty two.

Liam's POV.I stirred gently in my sleep, wrapping my arms around the slender body lying beside me. I smiled as the flashback from our tender moment the previous night came rushing into my head.We made love, it was the most beautiful thing, her tender skin rubbed against mine, her soft moans, just like pure melody, filtered into my ears begging me not to stop as I thrust harder into her. I never thought I'd ever experience that with her, I thought I lost her forever. I felt whole again, the unbearable pain and torture had flown off the window the moment I set my eyes on her. I couldn't believe she was really here, in my arms, her fingers digging into my skin as I thrust into her while she moved to meet my thrusts.She was really back, for good. And I'm keeping her forever. I'd be a fool to let her out of my sight ever again, not even for a second."I'm glad you are back to me," I mumbled wrapping my arms safely around her, pulling her deeper into my arms.Somehow, something still

Chapter twenty three.

Emily's POV.Life at London keeps getting better each day. I was treated with so much care and everyone contributed in any way they could to make sure that I remained healthy even when Adrian was out for meetings. I got along so well with the house workers. Over the short time I've stayed here, I could tell one unique thing about them, they cared for each other greatly, like a family, irrespective of their posts, and that I cherished so much. A loud rumbling of my stomach snapped me back to reality. I was starving. It was mid morning and the chefs were taking a rest from the morning meals, it was Adrian's rules following the fact that they all had their respective families too. He let them take short breaks between every work hour and returned afterwards. Yeah, such a charmer he is. They won't stop singing his praise. I had actually eaten to a pulp before Adrian left for work and also dappled on the numerous snacks and fruits that he makes me consume daily but being a pregnant

I have decided to live everyday as it comes.And it wasn't any easier living with the guilt of my intimacy with Nichole. I felt disgusted to the guts each time it crossed my mind. She was the last person I would ever share such intimate moment with. I couldn't believe how badly I wished it was Emily. She was all I craved.My thoughts was suddenly interrupted as my bedroom door flew open. I jerked up swiftly, eager to vent my anger on whoever it was. "Howdy boy," I suddenly heard my mom's voice as she poked her head through the door.I heaved out a deep sigh and relaxed back on the bed. I had thought it was Nichole.It was her new scheme to sneak into my house whenever she wanted. Lord knows she would have been taken away in a body bag if it had turned out to be her. "Mom, what are you doing he

Chapter twenty five.

Emily's POV. The pronounced noise outside the room had shaken me from my deep slumber. I couldn't quite decipher what the noise was all about. The early hours of the mornings here has always been serene. With a slight grumble, I pushed myself up from the bed and headed out of the room. Stepping down the stairs, I was taken aback by how crowded the entire space was. The entire house workers were present, scampering about. It suddenly occurred to me that it was finally the day for the ball. But then, all this for just a ball? Is this some kind of competition? Because certainly, someone doing all this is definitely out to surpass others, is it how it always is? I suddenly heard footsteps coming from the stairs and I looked up to see him climbing the stairs still clad in his night robe. "Emily, you are up already, thought you might need to sleep some more?" He smiled warmly at me. "I couldn't sleep anymore, the house is quite crowded today," I replied. "I'm sor

Chapter twenty six

Emily's POV."Don't move," Adrian said to me, climbing down and rushed towards my side of the car.It has become his routine to always pull the car door for me even when it wasn't a special occasion. At this point, I was totally convinced that he was being charming towards me because he wanted anything in return, Adrian was generally a kind man and all the time, he spreads so much delightfulness to everyone close to him without even realizing it. It was one thing I admired about him.Most times, I couldn't help but compare him to Liam unconsciously. I wondered what would have become of my marriage if Liam was close to being as charming as he was. Could our marriage have worked out? Would I still be in New York right now? Would he have been excited that we are having a baby together? Would our marriage have been less terrible? I dreaded to have these thoughts most of the time, but I couldn't help it, the more I tried to push the thoughts out of my head, the more pronounced they bec

Chapter twenty seven.

Emily's POV.It was Elisha.I swallowed hard as our gazes clashed. She had a smug smirk stretched across her face as she danced with an unknown man. "Are you okay?" Adrian's voice sounded through my head, I quickly snapped my gaze away from her."Yes, I am," I flashed him a warm smile. "Are you still bothered about what my mom said earlier? I told you to disregard that alright? She's all bark and no bite," "I'm not bothered about that, Adrian, I'm a little flushed with the number of influential people here," I lied. He pulled me closer to his body, while we moved slowly to the tune. "You are here as my date, Emily, that automatically makes you my woman, and as such influential, don't ever look down on yourself," Usually, I would have blushed sheepishly to his charming words and gestures, but right now, I was far from being moved by his words as my head was in turmoil.The little smirk on Elisha's face couldn't mean nothing. I could tell she was up to something. Adrian was right,

Chapter twenty eight.

Emily's POV."Has anyone seen my phone?" A sudden cry broke out from the crowd and the voice belonged to no one else but Elisha. I stopped dead on the track as the shrieking tone of her voice hit me hard. Her phone was missing? And the ideal place to find it was the dance floor. "Ignore her, she's just throwing a tantrum," Adrian whispered to me.I tried so hard not to let my feet wobble as we made our way towards our table. Elisha was onto something and I could feel it, and somehow, I could tell her mischief has everything to do with me. Soon after she raised the alarm, everyone at the dance floor were slowly beginning to turn toward her, inquiring information that could help get to the phone quickly. "It was right with me few seconds ago," she continued to look around, faking to search around. "Well, you could use mine to dial your phone, you might have misplaced it somewhere close," one of the ladies around offered. I watched keenly as she took the lady's phone, punching

Chapter twenty nine.

Emily's POV."I'm really sorry about this Emily, Elisha is insane," Adrian apologized for the umpteenth time as we walked towards the car.The ball ended a while ago and I couldn't be more glad. After the incident, the rest of the ball went on pretty well, though I couldn't find my comfort till it ended. I wanted to leave right away, I wanted to lock myself up in the room and exhaled an incredible amount of breath. She was really close to ruining my life.I literally saw my life flash before my eyes. I thought that was the end. I was going to be humiliated right before the influential folks at the ball. I wouldn't have stayed a day more in New York if that happened"It's not your fault Adrian, stop apologizing to me already," I groaned. It was getting annoying how he kept apologizing to me at every second that passed."I feel bad for not being able to protect you, despite my promise to do that," he replied. "There's nothing you could have done Adrian, Elisha had everything done s

Chapter thirty.

Emily's POV. As I burst through the door, my heart skipped a beat at the sight of Adrian lying on the floor, his face drained of color. Panic took hold of me as I hurriedly ran to his side, my thoughts racing a mile a minute."Adrian!" He suddenly flickered his eyes open, staring weakly at me. "What happened?" I asked, my voice quivering with concern. "Are you okay?""I'm fine," he replied weakly, attempting to sit up. "I was just taking a short nap," "Nap? On the floor? Really?" I shook my head, my expression stern. "You are overworking yourself huh? what's going on?""It's nothing," he mumbled. "You passed out on the floor Adrian, it's not nothing," I scolded, leaning closer and gently helped him to his feet, guiding him to the bed. He protested feebly, but I was not having it. I covered him with the duvet, my hand lingering on his forehead as I checked for signs of a fever."I'm going to make you some soup," I said turning towards the door. "And then I'm calling the doctor
