Emily Foster:"Here, take this medicine and go to sleep. You need rest." Lucas said after helping me sit on the bed and placed the pills on my hand with a glass of water "The doctor asked you to rest as much as you can and take the medicines on time to heal faster.""Thank you." I thanked him and gulped the medicine "Where is Lily?""She is in the backyard having the tea party with Mr. Cuddles, Mr. Blueberry, Mrs. Pots, and Miss. Ginny," he replied making me laugh because all of the names he took belonged to Lily's stuffed animals and her dolls "Don't worry the guards are looking after her. She is safe over here. No one can enter without my permission." Lucas tells me with a smile and kisses my knuckles "Call my name if you need anything. I will be in the next room working.""Ok," I answered and laid down, he put on the comforter on me, and left me alone. I closed my eyes and thought if this all could be real. If Lucas, Lily, and I can be family, I know this is impossible because ever
Lucas Bennet:When I saw Emily walking towards the door with Lily, I lost it and couldn't let that happen again. Lily and Emily are my life now. They both are my family and now I don't care about any consequences as long as I get to be with her for my whole life."No, Emily and Lily, you are not going anywhere. You both are my family." I announced, meaning the words from the bottom of my heart. I pushed Isabelle away from me in a hurry and ran towards Emily, took Lily from her in my arms, and hugged both Emily and Lily together in a family hug. This act of mine surprised Emily because she looked at me with widened eyes."What are you doing, Lucas?" Emily asked shocked "Let go of me, I don't want to be called a homewrecker.""You are only going to call my wife, nothing else," I spoke and landed my lips on her for a deep and passionate kiss, leaving Isabelle shocked in her place with her mouth hanging open and heard her gasp. Emily resisted me for a little while but gave up eventually a
Emily Foster:I was on my way to the kitchen to take a glass of milk for Lily when I heard the whispered yelling voice of Lucas coming from his study. My curiosity took over me and I decided to eavesdrop."Dad, you can do or say whatever you want, threaten me with anything you want but I don't care. At this point, I don't care today. I am not going to listen to you or Mom. I am done spending life according to you. I don't give a fuck about anything. You can do whatever you want but I am not going to marry Isabelle. I don't love her, never did, and never will. Emily is the only one for me." I heard him yell. I thought he was talking on the phone but when I heard his father's voice I gasped."You are willing to leave your luxurious life behind for that gold digger who is only trying to take over your wealth and nothing else. She is trapping you but you can't see it. I know the woman like her, they want nothing but your money. That stupid whore left her husband when he got broke, which t
Lucas Bennet: I woke up early in the morning to fix breakfast for Emily and Lily because I felt like we three were going to be just fine. I feel so relieved to know that I am free of my parent's clutches and free of the engagement with Isabelle. Now, I can just focus on Emily and Lily. "Yumm, it smells really amazing. What are you cooking, handsome?" Emily asked from the doorway of the kitchen and let out a yawn as she stretched her arms in the air " I am famished." "That's because you didn't eat anything last night, my love." I spoke as I walked towards her, wrapped my arms around her waist, and landed a kiss on her lips "How are you feeling now?" "Much better now that I am in your arms." she answered, wrapping her arms around my neck "Let's not talk about me, tell me about you. How are you feeling?" "I am feeling so much better, actually amazing. I have never felt this peaceful and relieved in my arms. All my life I have been controlled by my parents, as a member of Bennet, I ha
Lucas Bennet:"What the fuck do you mean by that?" I demanded after putting Emily down on her feet and looked at her "Take Lily to the room, love. I will be with you soon.""Ok," she replied in a low and nervous voice. I can see the worry in her eyes for me which made me glad to know that she cares and worries about me."What do you mean, old man?" I asked once Emily was out of sight "The will of Grandpa and the property papers clearly state that this place belongs to me.""Indeed it does, Lucas, but like always you don't pay attention to the details because if you have done that then you would have known that you would only get to have this place called your own when you get married to a woman who matches our standard and give birth to an heir."These words pierced my soul like a brick wall. I had always known about the circumstances mentioned in the will and property document, although it never crossed my mind that my father could turn around on me. While marriage meant taking respo
Lucas Bennet: It is comforting to know that Emily’s words reassured me because they calmed my anxiety at the thought of her accompanying us through anything. I hugged them and held their hands tightly. “Thank you, Emily. I will make our lives comfortable even if we start afresh,” I whispered, giving her a loving kiss.Slowly, we started the process of putting together our belongings. The time for me to leave this place that had been my home came at a bitter-sweet moment for me but I did make up my mind that it was the best time for Emily and Lily in particular. Our connection was priceless more than any commodity.Even though Emily’s apartment was not big, it turned out to be a warm and inviting one. I am not used to living in a small place but Emily's apartment felt just right for me because it was lively. Lily went running to her room to do her school homework Emily asked her to do. "You can put your stuff in my closet and share the room with me," Emily informs as I follow her to
Emily Foster: One month later. "Lucas, did you see the invitation card that came from Isabella?" I asked Lucas after entering the room where he was busy working on the laptop. It has been one month since his father has disowned him but he didn't let this affect him instead he was working really hard to build his own business empire. Lucas is one hell of an intelligent and smart man who has saved a hasty amount on the side in the forms of shares to start his own business one day but he wasn't getting the chance now that he has, he is planning not to let the opportunity go. The last month together has been nothing but blissful and Lucas has been nothing but a sweetheart to me and Lily. He has made sure to provide Emily and me with the best and even adjusted to live in this middle-class society just fine, he likes being here and surrounded by love and happiness. "I have already seen it, love, but we are not going. Isabelle might have come and apologized for everything but I am still n
Emily Foster: I woke up early in the arms of the man I love and smiled. He has done so much for me, walked away from the luxurious life he was born in, just so that he can be with us in peace and share the love and care only. I haven't returned him with a proper favor for what he has done until now, which is why I have planned a couple of things and really wish that he likes them. I kissed his forehead and slipped out of the bed and his arms as quietly as possible because I didn't want to wake him up. He looked so peaceful in his sleep and I don't want to take that away. He has been working really hard, and barely taking care of himself. I took a quick shower and changed into a sweatshirt and leggings before heading to the kitchen. I decided to cook something for Lucas, something that is his favorite. As I was busy doing that, Lily came out of the room while rubbing her eyes and looked at me with a morning smile. "Good morning, mommy. Are you making breakfast?" Lily asked "I am hun
