Chapter 13: Between Life and Death
“Congratulations, darling. It is my pleasure to welcome you back to our home,” said Elsie with the brightest smile ever.
“Thank you, Mother. I’m happy to be back,” Emilia replied.
She’d finally given in to Kane’s request and moved her things back into the Beaumont mansion. Every member of the family showed up to welcome her back, including Jack who still called Emily.
Elsie threw a private dinner a few days later to officially announce the engagement to their extended families and close friends. Chloe was beyond ecstatic to be inside the grand mansion again.
“We’ll be having the wedding next month in Ireland,” Kane announced during the five-course dinner.
Lillian gasped. “So soon? Why the hurry?”
“Why wait? Emilia and I are eager to spend every waking moment of our lives together as husband and wife.”
“Hear, hear!” Jack cheered.

When she woke up, her eyelids felt heavy as if she’d been sleeping all day. She lifted herself to a sitting position and groaned with the effort because her back was sore.“You’re awake,” a man whispered.She turned to her right and saw a deliciously handsome man sitting on the chair beside her bed. He was staring at her as if she was an angel descending from heaven.He was dressed in a sky-blue polo shirt and blue jeans. His black wavy hair was badly in need of a trim and his hazel eyes glowed with awe.“What are you doing here?” She asked him.“I’ve been waiting for you to wake up,” he replied in a deep baritone voice.He reached for her hand, but she shrank away from him. What a creep! It wasn’t enough that he’d sat there and watched her sleep, now he wanted to touch her too.“Are you ok?” He asked.“I should be asking you that question. Why

It was the perfect wedding that they’d both wanted all along.They travelled to three countries for their honeymoon, starting with a safari in Kenya, spicy days in Morocco and steamy nights in Dubai.

“What the hell just happened?”“Emilia, calm down. There’s a perfectly sensible explanation for why Kane did that.”“I’m listening.”Lillian sighed. “Look, it’s deeper than you think, but let’s just say Kane did what he had to do to save everybody’s asses.”“I don’t think I’m part of the ‘everybody’ you’re talking about. I just got thrown under the bus on national TV and you’re telling me my ass got saved. How?”“Kendra’s family was blackmailing us.”“Us?”“Yes. The entire Beaumont family. She knows things about us that will ruin our reputation if the public ever got wind of them.”“Hold on. You mean you guys used me as the sacrificial lamb to save yourselves?”“Stop being dramatic, Emilia. This will blow over quickly. There’s a new

“If anyone finds out that I’m here, I’ll make sure you lose your job immediately. Is that clear?” “Yes, Mrs Beaumont,” the hotel manager said with a quavering voice. “Another thing: while I’m here, I prefer to be referred to as Ms Emilia. Calling me Mrs Beaumont is like announcing my presence to the entire staff and I don’t want that.” “Duly noted, ma’am.” “Good. Now, excuse me. I’ll ring down for dinner at 7 p.m. What’s the special on the menu today?” “Seared scallops and baby spinach with pomegranate glaze,” the hotel manager said proudly. “That’s a special?” She scoffed. “Just send me the full menu and I’ll choose something else.” “Right away, ma’am.” “Thank you, Maurice,” she said dryly and closed the door. As she walked back into the suite, she smiled at herself. Elsie and Lillian would be proud of her aristocratic manner if they saw her now. She was becoming a true Beaumont. “Aw, shucks! I don’t want to be a true Beaumont,” she said aloud to herself. “They’re a bunch of

“It’s so good to hear from you again, Emilia. How are you?”“Annoyed most times, but I’m fine. What about you?”“I miss you,” he blurted out. “I know I shouldn’t say that but it’s true. I miss you a lot.”Crap! Maybe this phone call was a mistake.“I shouldn’t have called you, Matt,” she said softly.“Please, don’t say that. I didn’t mean to offend you. I know you and Kane are married again, I was just saying…”“It’s fine. I’m not offended. I just don’t want you to think that I was trying to get back with you again. I just felt like talking to someone who isn’t heavily invested in my current situation.”“I understand. I wasn’t expecting to leave your husband for me either. I know that’s impossible.”She chuckled. “I still love him but I’m

“Welcome back home, darling,” said Elsie. She hugged Emilia warmly. “I am so sorry for everything that happened.”“It’s ok. Kane told me everything,” she replied graciously.“Now you know we’re a bunch of crazies in this family. I hope you’re still going to stick by us regardless,” said Lillian.“I vowed to love Kane through thick and thin, for better or worse. I’m sticking to my vows.”“Please…” Samuel scoffed.“Seriously?” Jack asked him. “You’re one to talk.”“Don’t come for me, junkie. I’m not in the mood,” he fired back.“What did you say?” Jack asked, taking a step towards his brother-in-law.“Ok, that’s it, guys. Stop!” Kane ordered them. “You’re supposed to be welcoming my wife home, not making her feel uncomfortable.”“It’s ok. Family fights sometimes,” Emilia said with a smile.Oddly enough, she liked seeing this side of the Beaumonts. It assured her that they were real humans and not a group of robots with impeccable manners.They heard footsteps on the stairs and everyone

“We will not be threatened into silence,” Joyce Banks said to the interviewer. “My daughter must get justice. The Beaumonts must pay for causing her death. She didn't deserve that.”“What do you want them to do for you?” The interviewer asked calmly.“I want compensation. Kendra was the breadwinner of our family. Her father has been terminally ill for years, her brother has been in and out of rehab and she was the one paying for that.”“Ok…”“I can’t work as much as I used to do because of my frail health,” Joyce continued. “Kendra provided for all of us and we never lacked whatever we wanted. Now, she’s gone. The least Kane Beaumont can do is to compensate us accordingly for our loss!”“Please, turn that thing off,” Elsie said distastefully.Lillian picked up the TV remote and switched off the 75-inch HD screen. She too was tired of listening to Joyce’s endless ranting.“They’re not going to stop, are they?” Emilia asked wearily. “They’ll continue to be a thorn in our flesh.”“This m

“The twin-girls poll seems to be taking the lead as more well-wishers appear to believe that the Beaumont babies are going to be shrouded in pink swaddles when they’re born. This speculation was fuelled by a report from a source close to the family who revealed exclusively to us yesterday that Emilia Beaumont’s personal shopper was at the family mansion early in the week with what looked like bags of pink baby attires.”“Gosh, these people are clowns!” Chloe laughed and switched off the TV. “The way they make up fake stories with so much confidence is amazing.”“That’s why you should never believe everything the media tells you,” said Emilia as she folded another outfit and placed it inside her suitcase.“Aren’t you too rich to be packing your own bags?” Her sister asked.“I don’t mind. I find it therapeutic.”Chloe sniffed. “Can nev
