Chapter 61 — A Vengeful Encounter

Emelia's POV"So what if I'm pregnant?" I snatched my medication bottle out of Lily's hands. "Get it through your thick skull that none of this is your business to begin with!""It is my concern when you're trying to use whatever tactic you can to prevent your divorce from Victor!" Lily shrieked like a madwoman.Dealing with Lily's incessant need to be in my business was beyond exhausting. There had to have been more to life than simply butting into the concerns of others. Did she not want to see the world? Take on a damn hobby?Did she ever take time to take care of herself?They rhetorical questions, of course. I knew what the answers were.Our colleagues who had just entered the building turned to look at us and the unfolding commotion.I simply glared at Lily and shoved my way past her and made my way to the elevators. It was irritating how she seemed adamant on making a scene in front of others. Hopefully to everyone else, she still looked just as crazy as she actually was.She d

Chapter 62 — A Medical Emergency

Emelia's POV"Lily! What happened?! Are you alright?!"When my vision finally cleared, I craned my head to the side and saw Victor next to Lily. He had his hands around her as if to support and shield her from the rest of the world.Meanwhile, I was laid out on the ground—exposed and vulnerable. Despite being surrounded by so many people, at that moment, I'd never been so alone."Oh, Victor! It—" Lily hissed through her teeth. "It hurts so much! My leg!"Victor carefully rose to his feet with his arms under Lily. "Try and get up, okay? How bad does it hurt? Can you try—""STOP!" Lily wailed. "I think it's really broken this time! I can't stand it! It hurts!""It's okay, I got you." Victor reassured her. "Sit back down, okay?" He then looked out into the crowd. "Quick standing there, somebody, and get a damn wheelchair!""Victor…" I called out weakly.However, he was too busy having his eyes fixated on Lily's leg to notice anyone else but her."Emelia!" Another familiar voice had cut th

Chapter 63 — All We Can Do

Emelia's POVI was slipping in and out of consciousness. The weight of the unbearable pain in my stomach and in my heart was too overwhelming.Lily's psychotic and selfish actions were possibly costing me the life of my baby. I could only hope and pray that everything was okay. They had to be okay, right?But what made matters worse was to see the desperation and concern on Victor's face—like he'd forgotten all the lies and her blatant manipulation.If I had gone through with the divorce sooner, left his company when Alexis told me to, and just let those two be together, none of this would be happening. My baby would have a better chance to live, and I'd get the chance to show them the love we both deserved.It felt like I was being robbed.When I finally came to, I was surrounded by white, sterile walls. Nurses surrounded my bed as they stuck things to my chest and stomach, inserted an IV into my arm, and had inserted a cannula into my nose to help with my breathing. Their movements w

Chapter 64 — A Shattered World

Emelia's POV"The team and I did everything we could, but the damage was too severe. Your baby couldn't be saved." The doctor's expression was grief-stricken. "I… I'm so incredibly sorry, Miss Emelia."The silence that came next was so much heavier than anything I'd heard before. It was crushing and debilitating, and like every hit of oxygen was being stolen right from my lungs.My baby. My sweet bundle of joy that I never got the chance to meet was taken from me.No, I killed them with my stupidity and stubbornness.A wave of numbness crashed over me; a bitterly cold, and empty sorrow flooded my body that sent shivers throughout.The physical pain that I'd felt some odd hours ago had transcended into something far deeper and darker than I thought imaginable. I felt its claws sink into my flesh and latch onto my soul. The weight of this loss was my horrible anchor into the terrible reality of what I never got to experience.My mind screamed in anguish, but nothing was coming out of my

Chapter 65 — A Heavy Realization

Emelia's POV"How could I be so heartless?" I yelled back, the pain in my chest tightening to the point where I couldn't even breathe. "How can you even look at me and say those words?!"Victor's accusatory question felt like he'd thrown a dagger at my already bruised and shattered heart. I'd just lost my damn child! Was he out of his mind?! How could he do this to me while I was going through the worst pain of my life?"Don't act like you're innocent in all this!" Victor fired back. His anger was palpable as heat radiated off his body. "Lily's leg is broken because of you!""And that's what you believe? Is that what Lily said happened? Can Lily never lie to you? How about the time she lied to you while we were gone on our trip to Blasdell? Did you forget about that?!" I fired the questions in rapid succession like they were bullets—and Victor was my mark.His face flushed red. "I was only doing what I thought I needed to! I thought her injuries were serious then! Just like now… Can yo

Chapter 66 — The Weight of Loss

Victor's POV"Due to the fall your wife endured, since Miss Emelia was only ten weeks along, the severity of this situation was far more dire." The doctor began to explain. "Amniotic ruptures lead to infection, and fetal distress, but in the worst case scenario, they can lead to miscarriage.""M-miscarriage?" My eyes widened as I darted from Emelia, to the paperwork, and to the doctor. "W-what do you mean by that? What are you saying?""Your wife was pregnant. My team and I did everything we could to save that baby, but… we weren't able to save it." Dr. Williams stated.My world stopped at that moment; everything stood in a cold stillness that froze me at my core.The news hit me like a bombshell; the details shredded my heart into a million pieces. When I'd checked Lily into the hospital, I had every intention of confronting Emelia and getting to the bottom of what happened back at the office.This was the last thing that I expected out of this encounter.I could only stand there and

Chapter 67 — Forever Divided

Emelia's POVSeeing the pain reflected in Victor's eyes and feeling it as his hand trembled in mine gave me an odd sense of satisfaction. As heartless as that made me seem, at that moment, I didn't care. At the end of the day, this child was also his. This pain and suffering shouldn't have just been mine to feel. After what he put me through, he needed to feel this, too. He needed to feel the emptiness and sorrow that I did—to understand how his mistreatment of me cost us the life of our child.I just wished it was enough to bring the child back to me. I wanted nothing more than to shower them with the love and affection they deserved. It filled me with even more rage knowing how I'd been robbed of the beauties of motherhood.When I looked up to meet Victor's gaze, I saw a multitude of emotions flicker through the blue eyes I once loved. Pain. Sadness. Anger. It was the most emotion I'd ever seen him display.Suddenly and without warning, Victor paced back towards the wall and punched

Chapter 68 — Blind With Anger

Victor's POV"Tell me the truth, Lily. I won't accept anything less." I stood up and faced her. My voice was low, almost to the point that it sounded dangerous.After everything Emelia told me, it was almost too hard to stomach looking at Lily now. It was almost like I wasn't looking at my best friend—but a total stranger."What do you want to know?" Lily's voice trembled slightly, but she was still able to keep relatively calm."You knew Emelia was pregnant, right?""I-I mean, yeah, but—""So why did you lie to me? Why did you tell me it was her who pushed you down the stairs?" I interrupted her, not wanting to hear her excuses.Lily was hesitant then, but not for too long where it'd piss me off even more. "I mean, I didn't know for long—""DON'T BULLSHIT ME!"She flinched away. "I-I swear! I just found out! Same as you... I had my suspicions because of how emotional—""Watch. Your. Mouth." I snarled."I-I mean s-she'd been so sick, a-and I saw her run into the bathroom to throw up!"

Chapter 69 — Friendly Connections

Emelia's POVEven with my eyes closed, all I could see ahead was a long road of pain and misery. While the events only recently occurred, the grief of losing my child made it feel like years had gone by.I wasn't even sure that there was a light at the end of this long, dark tunnel.The only kind of warmth and comfort that I had left was my best friend, Alexis. She sat next to me as she traced soft circles on the back of my hand."Thank you," I finally managed to say after a long stretch of silence had grown between us. "For everything.""There's nothing you need to thank me for. I told you I was going to be here with you every step of the way. I just wish that this wasn't one of the steps that we had to take…""I… I don't know how I'm going to get through this.""You don't have to know right now." Alexis's tone was soft and reassuring. "Let your heart feel what it needs to, then we'll take it from there."I nodded my head and closed my eyes again. I truly had no idea what I would've d

Chapter 70 — Things To Consider

Emelia's POV"Oh, come on, Em! Don't look at me like that." Alexis laughed. "You can't say that that isn't a good idea!"Actually, the idea was crazy! Mason said he was working for the LuxeLionness Vault, and they're THE biggest competing company against Victor's.At this point, it wasn't about Victor's feelings either. I didn't care about that. What I did care about was making the right choice.The LuxeLioness Vault was an extremely difficult company to join, and I still needed time to recover and think things over… Besides, could I really trust joining THE rival company?Still, Alexis was right—I had to think about finding another company to work for. I definitely didn't want to work for Victor, much less see him. I just wanted to cut all ties with him as quickly as I could.Maybe this could give me the opportunity to finally move on and focus on myself and my career."Well, I think it's a good idea." Mason chimed in. "I think you'd fit right in with the LuxeLioness Vault, Emelia."I
