Emma awakened and found herself in her room. “Honey, are you okay?” Liam asked, his voice full of concern.“Mommy, how do you feel?” Alden asked, holding his mother's hand.Emma groaned a bit and slowly sat upright.“I'm okay,” Emma replied as she saw the worried expressions on their faces.“Are you sure that you're fine, or should I call the doctor?” Liam asked.“Hey, don't make things more complicated. Which doctor would want to come all the way here to examine me?”“There's nothing that money can't do. I can even give him or her a free ride on my yacht,” Liam responded, unconvinced by her positive response. “Mummy, Daddy is right. A doctor should check if you are truly alright or not. We don't want you to fall sick,” Alden muttered and hugged his mother.“I don't want you to be ill either,” Aziel said, resting his head on her lap.Emerald was beside her father, hiccuping. She was so scared when she saw her mother unconscious on the floor. It was her screams that alerted her fathe
“Thank you for sending your men to help me, those bodyguards of hers were close to catching me,”Emma heard her father's voice but found it difficult to open her eyes.The next voice she heard was quite unfamiliar.“Well, you made a drastic move to bring my happiness to me. Why wouldn't I help you?” The man responded to Mr. Crown.“May I ask what your name is?” Mr. Crown inquired, his curiosity piqued.“My name is Jackson Taylor,” He responded.The mention of the last name 'Taylor', made Emma more eager to snap out of her unconsciousness. Fortunately, her body cooperated and her eyes slowly opened.Her vision was blurry at first, but within a few seconds, it cleared. She surveyed her environment and saw that she was in someone's sitting room.She darted her gaze to the two men seated on the couch. Anger surged through her when she saw Mr Crown.“You told me that you were having a heart attack!” Emma cried out as she felt a sharp pain in her head.“I am sure that you would have been pl
“What I'm feeling is none of your business. Just let me out of this place already! Love is by choice, not force!” Emma cried out and hoped that her bodyguards would find her.“You're going to understand the kind of love I have for you after we get married,” Jacked beamed psychotically, his eyes devilishly scrutinizing her body. “The baby will be aborted after we get married,”Emma gasped, and her hands protectively covered her stomach.“I have to endure his children in our home, I won't bear to raise another one,” Jackson snarled, his eyes darkening at her.“I'll kill you if you try to touch my baby,” Emma threatened, tears brimming in her eyes.“You can try. I love it when you're so rough with me,” He laughed like a maniac.'Liam, please find me. I think the pregnancy made me emotional and now, I have committed a huge mistake. Please save me,' Emma cried inwardly.“A man is coming to get you ready for the wedding. I'll get ready too, see you till then,” Jackson winked at her and left
“Hey sis, what's up?” Emma answered as she sipped on her drink. Her eyes danced around, watching the people around the club. “Help! Emma, please come and save me!” Her step-sister, Elizabeth Crown, cried over the phone, causing Emma to jump on her feet. “What's going on, Lizzy? I'm on my way. Where are you?” She asked as she was already making her way to where she saw her sister disappear a while ago. “Room 302” Elizabeth replied, crying. “What's wrong? What's going—” the call ended. This got Emma really scared. Her heart was racing as she raced up to the room where Elizabeth said she was. Elizabeth had begged Emma to go with her to the club. Although Emma hated the club, she did it for her younger sister who had finally found love, and their first date was in a club. Emma agreed to only come along because she knew the club wasn't a safe place and her sister would need help if a case arose. And here was one. She rushed past different rooms, searching for room 302. Nothing shoul
“Alex, I swear, it's all Elizabeth's plan” Emma accused, the moment the whole scene played in her head again. She pointed her index finger at Elizabeth, “She did this. She called me and told me to come into this room, I swear!” She cried. But it looked like Alex wasn't hearing a thing she was saying. With his eyes staring at the wall behind her, he said,“We should end this here and now” Emma swallowed as she forced herself from the bed, “Al… Alex, listen…” Her hand held the duvet to her chest tightly as she made her way to where Alex stood. She was close when Elizabeth stepped in between them.“You don't seem to understand what he said. Let me explain it in two simple words. It's over!” Emma shook her head as she fell to her knees, denying what she heard. She doesn't want to believe it, she cannot believe that her relationship of five years was ending today. And to think it was ending for something she didn't do. “Alex, please listen to me. There is an explanation for this” She
“Elizabeth Crown?” Liam stood up and shook hands with the lady who just walked over to his table. “Yes,” she replied with a small smile. She was wearing a black gown that exposed her cleavages, the slit on the gown was long up to her thighs. She didn't mind it. When she got a call that Mr. Liam wanted to see her, she was the happiest, forgetting to ask the reason for such a meeting. Everyone knows Liam Payne, one of the richest bachelors in Cyprus. “Please, sit,” Liam said to her as he took his seat as well. Since what happened that night at the hotel, he cannot help but still feel disturbed. He had dropped some cash for her that day, but he wasn't sure it helped. He wanted to see her face-to-face and apologized genuinely and also helped her in any way he could. He just wanted a clear conscience, as it wasn't his fault that happened. He was told by his personal assistant that Elizabeth was the lady he had slept with.“Order whatever you like” he urged her and Elizabeth nodded befo
FIVE YEARS LATERComing out of the airport, a young and beautiful lady wearing shades was holding two boys with both hands, while a man beside her was carrying a girl around the same age as the two boys. They were all walking towards a car parked on the other side of the airport.All eyes were on them, not them really, but the three children whom the lady and the man held. People couldn't help but praise the children, who were all smiling and good-looking. Emma just couldn't wait till they got inside the car opposite them. It's been four years already, but she still hasn't gotten used to the attention she gets because of her kids. They were just too good-looking, and she knew very well that their looks came from their father, who she had no idea who he was. “Finally!” She breathed out when she entered the car with her children. Everyone in the car laughed at her, they knew why she was so relieved already. Although the children loved the attention they got, their mother didn't. She
Emma walked into the company, dressed in a chiffon top, black trousers, and her four-inch heels. She walked gracefully and elegantly that no one would believe that she was a mother of three kids. “Miss Emma Lions?” Someone asked and Emma nodded, “Yes. Please, where is the meeting held?” She asked as she took the hand of the man who had asked her the question.“This way,” he said as he walked in front of her, showing her the way to the meeting room. “By the way, I'm Smith,” the young man said and Emma smiled, “It's nice to meet you, Mr. Smith” The elevator opened and Emma raised her brows at who it was that was already in the elevator. Elizabeth was more shocked when she saw Emma. They hadn't seen each other since the day she left Alex's house. She didn't bother to ask about her whereabouts, especially when she heard that her father had disowned her. Emma wanted to ignore the elevator and wait for the next but on a second thought, she ignored Elizabeth and stepped into the elevat
