Enemies but lovers1 Chapter 26
Chapter 26"Emma?" He asked as she wiped her tears."Why is there a plaster on your shoulder……and your hand?" He asked her once he saw the one on her hand. How had he missed it?"What?" She asked him as she wiped her tears."Were you injured? How?" Emma took a look at the cute plaster on her hand. She was sure the injury was from when the bullet had grazed her. There was no way she was going to tell Brandon that. She had no idea who was behind the attack. Who had wanted her killed so much that they sent people to actually do the job? "Emma?" "Let me down." She said to him,He held her tighter."Tell me what happened." He said to her,"It's none of your concern, Brandon. And let me go." She said to him as she struggled to get off his leg."Emma." "Get your hands off me, Brandon. You can't hold me like this just because….."Brandon moved his hands and touched the plaster on her shoulder. Emma flinched immediately but tried to cover it up. Although there was no need for that because
Enemies but lovers1 Chapter 27
Chapter 27"I should have known." He groaned out.He took her in. She only had on a leggings and a sweater. His sweater. But he knew there was no need in pointing that out. She had no make up on and her hair was tied in a ponytail. No jewelry or accessories. Nothing at all. Which meant she had finished dressing up a long time ago. Thirty minutes had been too much a long time for her to put on what she had on. She did it on purpose and judging by the smirk on her face and the way she folded her arms cross her chest, she knew. "I told you Brandon, you can't boss me around. You don't tell me what to do." She said to him."It's the hospital, Emma. It's not like I'm kidnapping you or anything." He said to her."Really? I thought with the way you were speaking, you were going to kidnap me." She replied to him with an eyeroll.Brandon sighed again. He had no time for this and he knew Emma was just trying to get on his nerves. Well, he had no time to exchange words with her. He was worried s
Enemies but lovers1 Chapter 28
Chapter 28Brandon watched Emma with a small smile as she ate the doughnuts. She wasn't a messy eater but she was fast. It was as if she was inhaling every doughnut she picked up and she had instructed him to not say a word as she ate until she gave him the go ahead.Brandon's phone beeped on the table and he picked it up to see it was a message from Benji.Benji: Where did you get this?Attached to the question was a picture of the object they had collected at the hospital. Before moving to the cafe, Brandon had given it to one of his bodyguards who had taken it to Benji immediately. He had a bad feeling about it and he just wanted to be sure what it was.Brandon: Just tell me what it is.Benji: I really need to know how you got this. Are you hurt or injured? Do you need me to tighten your security? Increase the amount of guards?Brandon: Now you sound like Kevin. There's no need for that. Just tell me what it is.Benji: Dude! Are you trying to tell me you don't know? Where the fuck
Enemies but lovers1 Chapter 29
Chapter 29"You are getting married?" Brandon asked Emma with a small frown.Emma gave him a frown of her own. There was no way she was getting married. At least not that….oh. Her eyes widened when she realized what was going on."Let me see the headline." She told Brandon."Emma….""Just show me the headline. The article. Whatever it is. Show it to me." She said to him and with every word, her voice increased an octave.Brandon wasted no time in giving her the phone. Emma immediately searched for the news and there she saw it. There was a picture of her and Brandon. She had no idea how the press had gotten the picture but it made them look closer than they actually were. And then there was a picture of her and Hugo from the engagement party. There was also a date for the wedding. A date she had no idea about. The last time she had talked to her grandfather which apparently happened to be the previous day, she had walked out on him. On all of them. Emma felt tears pool up in her eyes
Enemies but lovers1 Chapter 30
Chapter 30Emma finally gathered the courage to step out of the car. There was no way Godson would be in her house. He hated coming to her house. He preferred sending her a message anytime their grandfather summoned her. And besides, there was no need for her to be scared Godson. It wasnt like he was the one who had sent the men who had attached her the previous night right?"Okay, let's do this." She said to herself as she exhaled but then, there was a sudden knovk in the window.Emma flinched in her seat but turned to look at the person who signaled she should let down the window. Emma swallowed. The man looked intimidating with tattoos up to his neck. But something about him seemed familiar although she couldn't quite place it. There was no need being scared, she thought to herself as she opened the door with all the courage she could muster.The man adjusted and gave her space as she came down from the car. He gave her a small smile as he scanned the dress she was wearing. Emma wr
Enemies but lovers1 chapter 31
Chapter 31Emma froze. Brandon's lips were on hers. It wasn't like she hated it. She craved his touch from time to time but she wasn't expecting him to kiss her this way at least not in the presence of company. Her eyes were wide with shock. The kiss didn't last long. It was hardly even a kiss. Just a touch of lips or so she would like to claim. "Better?" Brandon asked her.Emma gave him an eye roll. She could not let Brandon be aware of what he did to her. Of what his kisses did to her. It made her weak in the knees but there was no way she was going to tell him that nor was she going to tell him that she actually appreciated being kissed by him because it stopped the incoming panic attack."You really couldn't think of another way?" She asked him."Yup, you are okay. Let's get out of this place." Brandon said to her as he stood up."Wh…what?" "I know you don't want to let the police in on this yet but still, we are trespassing in a crime scene. We really shouldn't touch anything a
Enemies but lovers1 chapter 32
Chapter 32Emma woke up and dashed to the toilet to relieve herself. She felt like the baby was sitting on her bladder. She had very little control over it and just taking a small amount of water brought the urge to use the toilet. She moved back to the room after washing her hands and sat on the bed. She was exhausted and hungry which was why she did not notice the phone on the bedside table until it had reached the ground. She was lucky there was a rug on the floor to cushion the fall. She picked the phone up and checked to see if there were any cracks. She had no idea whose phone it was.'Perhaps it belongs to Brandon?' she thought to herself and with that thought in mind, she moved out of the room, downstairs to locate Brandon. Maybe he had forgotten it, she thought to herself as she walked down the stairs. But then, the scent of something delicious wafted through her nose and she traced the aroma to the kitchen where she saw a lady whom she suspected as the cook, placing chicken
Enemies but lovers1 chapter 33
Chapter 33She tossed and turned and turned again. She wasn't hot nor was she uncomfortable but Emma found it hard to sleep. With a sigh, she got up from the bed and moved downstairs. She had a sudden craving for ice cream. Maybe not being able to sleep made her crave it, she had no idea. She moved to the kitchen and opened the refrigerator and to her surprise, there was a tub of ice cream. Mint chocolate chip ice cream, the exact one she was craving.Emma wasted no time in taking it out and placing it on the island in the kitchen. Her only issue was finding a spoon. The kitchen was built differently from hers and had every top grade equipment one could ever wish for. Although Emma had no idea how to use most of them. She tried opening the cupboards but there was no handle. "How do they use this thing?" She asked loudly, filled with irritation."Swipe." She heard a voice she clearly knew was Brandon's say from behind her.She had no idea how he had gotten there or when but that was t
