Covering with lid, I placed the last food container on dining table before placing spoons and folks around the plates. Miranda helped me carry all those as she still thought I was weak with all those late night sleeps. I requested her to go sleep early as she did work all day and she could be sick anytime the way she was pushing herself considering her tender age. So I was glad for once that she complied and went to her room to rest.
Rose was still taking shower, while Michael stood beside Edward, giving him report of whole day and the recent heartrending incident. His views about Rose made me think he was visualising her as some convicted criminal or serial killer affiliated with some dangerous Mafia.
"Sir, I still think it wouldn't be very good keeping that woman in this house!"
I smiled. "But Micheal, she's my friend. A friend of your Sir as well! So I assure you she's more of a kind-hearted person in real
Emily's Pov:Mia! What was she doing here! Did something bad happen!?"Emily!",she yelled, her eyes filled with tears and her cheeks all puffed up from crying."Mia! Why are you crying!? Did something bad happen!? Mia-"Mia shook her head, throwing her arms around me and started to cry hysterically, her tears not willing to stop. "I don't know ...what to do..anymore... Emily! Help me! I don't want to live anymore! I can't do all of this anymore!""Shh.. Mia. Never say never. Let's talk it all out! I'm here! We'll sort out everything! Don't cry!" I brought her inside and offered her a coffee. "Here. Drink it! It'll help you recover from your emotions!"Mia hesitated a bit, before extending her arm to take the coffee and drank it all up in one shot before wiping her lips with the back of her hand."Good!" I patted
Emily's pov:I was preparing breakfast when Edward came down sleepily, his hairs all ruffled up like a bird nest and he muttered something about how I dragged him away from bed so early."Don't mutter like a girl and stuff your ass! We have to hurry!" I slid bowl of hot vegetable soup in front of him and he nodded absent mindedly, still leaning to table sleepily and digging his spoon in table to eat, and not in the real bowl.Sighing loudly, I grabbed the spoon from his hand and put my hands fully on his cheeks, making him look at me. He tried to open his eyes but fell on my shoulder, snuggling closer to my neck when I felt his soft lips pressing firmly over my hickey. I froze right at the spot, trying to contemplate whether to push him away or pull him closer."Mmm. You smell so good, Lily! I want to kiss-" his mouth opened a little to press firmly on my neck, his lips starting t
Mia's Pov:It was awkward!So awkward!Sitting beside Jake while he was driving furiously to god knows where!He didn't even spare me a glance and the speed with which he was driving, I was sure we would end up reaching Mars in no time.Gripping my seatbelt tightly, I nearly toppled over my seat when he suddenly roatated the steering wheel and the car turned to some undecided destination.."Jake!?"No response."Jake!?"Still no response."Jake, are you okay!?"His fists were bleeding and the white cloth he wrapped around his fingers were soaked red now. I was getting worried for him. I knew he was angry with me but did he really need to be that moody now!Without thinking, I put my ha
Mia's pov:Loud sound of thunder and incessant strong rain made me open my eyes and I squirmed in my place, seeing darkness still surrounding the sky, dark clouds visible from the window.I felt tired. Very tired!Someone tucked the blanket draped over me and all tiredness flew out the window as I realised I was not alone in the bed."Mia" Strong pair of arms encircled my waist, pulling me closer. My mind was still half asleep until those masculine hands rubbed against my bare stomach, going slowly above to settle on my chest.Bare chest! Over my bare breasts!I was lying with my back to that person but I didn't dare to turn around!Oh my god!Let it be anyone else, but not him!No, No! Not anyone else!But not him either!Gulpi
Emily's pov:"Lily, I can't find my office files and where is my folder!?" I heard Edward calling for me, sound of things falling down coming from our bedroom."See there! Under that black cupboard inside your closet!" I yelled, stirring my stew before taking some in a spoon to taste.Too spicy!I added some water and vegetables, breaking two eggs and poured them over boiling stew. Chopping fresh parsley, I sprinkled it over my cooked stew."I can't find it anywhere! Emi Seriously, where the hell is that damn folder!"I sighed loudly, shooking my head and turning off the heat of the stew.Quickly I climbed over the stairs to see him all frustrated and half dressed, ransacking all cupboards of the room."Eddie! See properly there, will you!? I'm trying to cook you a proper breakfast here!"
Emily's Pov:He was still and silent as a rock, his eyes widening like saucers, as if I had asked him the toughest question in the world.I sighed. "Are you my real husband, Eddie?!"He thought for a moment, then shook his head slowly."No, right!? Then you don't have any right to stop me from talking to any men!""But he is just some stupid sales tax manager!""I don't talk to people for their money, Edward!! Do you think I am your friend because you are a businessman billionare!?"He hesitated. "I didn't mean it-""No. I don't care about your fucking money or anything! I care only about you and trust me, Eddie, money is not the thing I am looking for in my life!""So I don't love you and I am not your real husband is the reason you are talking to that dickhead gu
Emily's POV:My best friend's girlfriend!One woman. One beautiful woman who changed both of our destinies. One who destroyed my hopes of living happily ever after with Edward but gave him the best happiness he could ever get in his life.Her Love.They say that 'to love and being loved in return is the best thing in the world!'They say right though, I must admit!!Things worked out for them pretty well I suppose.I always thought that Lara was a big obstacle between me and Edward but years passed by like seasons and I never realized when I ended up becoming obstacle between the two lovers.I took reluctant steps away from their love, admiring my own love from afar and just being happy by that only. It was tough at first but years of practice made me somewhat habitual to
Emily's Pov:I was as shocked as a bull deprived of water after ploughing fields in strong sunlight all day!I stared continously at Lara, who was still crying hysterically, hugging the album close to her bosom."You have a daughter, Lara?!!"She nodded meekly, wiping her tears like a little girl with the back of her hands. My motherly love kicked in and without thinking anything, I pulled out handkerchief from my purse and handed it to her.She looked at the piece of cloth and then at me and I smiled at her, encouraging her to take it, coaxing her with my sympathetic eyes."Here! Come here!" I made her sit on the sofa and immediately poured a glass of water for her which she drank it, her tears still flowing from her beautiful eyes."I won't ask anything else if you're hurting so much because of it!" I patted her back, assuring h
