After Samantha had finished speaking, Emily opened her mouth to speak, but no word could come out. Whatever answer she gave to Samantha’s question would only further implicate her. She was lost and could not save herself, even though she so desired to."No... no, hold on. I see that the question is just too much for you, so let me rephrase it. So tell me, Emily, did you or did you not give your virginity to Don Nick, the CEO of your company, on the first night you met him?" Tyler asked.At this point, all that could come out of Emily’s mouth was a scream, and crying profusely, she rushed out of the house without looking back.*Emily continued to run in the street without caring about where she was running to. Her whole world had crumbled before her, and she might as well end it all. Of all that Samantha had done to her, Emily believed this to be the height of it.And to think that just a while ago, she was considering finally moving in with Tyler, and now this For Emily, her world co
"See, we should just leave here already," Alpha Xavier said, lifting her by the hand.When she stood up, she asked again. "Where is this place?" she looked at the dark surrounding environment."At a garden by the roadside," the second man replied as they all walked out.Soon they arrived by the roadside, and that was when Emily was able to see the men clearly.She had seen Alpha Xavier before, but on that day he was on his bike all through, and even though she could tell that he was tall, she never imagined that he was up to six feet and seven inches. With his height, he was way taller than Emily, who was barely up to five feet and three inches. She could see his hazel eyes as they sparkled even with the light that barely shone brightly. His shirt was tight and exposed his six packs, and the loosened buttons at the top of his shirt exposed his hairy chest, leaving much to be imagined.Even with teary eyes, Emily could still notice his biceps, which were revealed by the tightly fitting
"Hey, you stop." Don Nick called on Emily not to leave the office.It has not been easy for Emily to work directly under Don Nick. He is a very busy man, and ever since he returned, Emily has been able to avoid him even while working as his PA.Anyway, he does not need her to do much. Her major task as his PA was to set reminders and ensure that everything that had to do with him was within schedule.She ensured, among others, that his meals arrived on time, his meetings didn’t overlap, and his appointments were kept. It is also within her duty to travel with him on business trips, but there has not been a single trip since she resumed, and she hoped that it would continue this way.Today he is having a meeting with some top clients, and she stepped in to hand over the urgent report that just arrived at the office to him. It was at the point of her wanting to leave after handing over the report that he called her back.She was nervous when she entered and completely avoided his gaze,
Emily immediately looked up at Don Nick."I have been calling you for some time now, but for some reason best known to you, you seem not to be here," he added."Sir... I..." she stuttered.It was at this point that her eyes went around the room, and she saw that it was just her and her boss that were inside. Every other person has left, and she does not know when they all left. In her anxiety, she tried to locate the time to know for how long she had been absent-minded.He went on. "I have been calling you... ehm...""Emily sir, my name is Emily," she put in."Yes, Emily. I know that," he said. "Do you still want this job?" he asked, staring sternly at her.Hearing his question, she immediately sprung to her feet. Yes, sir, yes, sir, I love this job," she replied anxiously.He taps his fingers on his table and rolls on his chair. "I doubt you do..."Emily, sir..." she added.He grinned and continued. "If you do, you will not depict so much mediocrity""Sir..." Emily was stunned. "I ap
Emily stood at the company’s premises, staring blandly at her phone. She was so confused, and she does not know what to do next. This is the seventh time that she has called Tyler today, and yet the call keeps diverting. She does not need to be told that he blocked her number from reaching him, and it hurts her so badly that he despised her.This past week, she had done everything she could to reach out to Tyler and get him to listen to her, but he had refused all approaches. She had been to his apartment on several occasions, but on such occasions, he would not open the door for her to enter. She had even sent countless text messages to him to express her sincere apology, but even that had not moved him. He read her numerous messages but never responded.Emily loves Tyler so dearly, and she does not want to believe that this would be the end for her and him and the love they once shared. He is one person who gave her hope and made her believe that life was worth fighting for even in
The door opened, and Tyler brought his head out. Seeing that it was Emily, he hissed. He was about to go out, and that was the reason why he did not bother to know who was at the door before proceeding to open it. Moreover, he never expected that Emily would try to reach him even up to this time considering his cold response to her pleas.Tyler," Emily said with a smile she forced herself to put up.She could not believe that she finally got to be face-to-face with him after such a long time, and this gave her soul joy. She missed him, and seeing him standing before her, she felt like wrapping herself up in his embrace."Tyler, I have been calling you... all along," she tried to ignore his coldness towards her. "But... but... you..." her voice became teary."Stop it, Emily!" he yelled. "Just how pretentious can you get?""But... but... I... I tried to..." she tried to smile as she spoke with her teary voice, but she could not hold back the tears any longer.Seeing her tears further in
"What do you mean you gave her leave to do that?" Elise Lee yelled at her husband, Oscar Lee."Come on, darling, what do you have me do?" Oscar replied and slouched on the fancy sofa in the sitting room.Elise remained standing in front of him. "You could have just said no, isn’t that logical?" she persisted."We need this money, and there is no denying that fact," the exhausted Oscar Lee replied.He was tired of the idea of Elise having to question his authority every other time, especially when it had to do with Emily. She was still his daughter, and even though he does not qualify to be called her father, he will still try to do right by her."We may need the money, but that doesn’t warrant giving her too much leverage. She should always remain under our watch. You know what we are trying to protect," Elise said.Oscar heaved and tried to adjust his sitting position. This is the truth that he was trying to hide from Emily, and he would do everything to achieve that. It started with
"Daddy..." Samantha began."Yes, my precious daughter, I am listening," Oscar replied with all the patience that he could muster."Actually, it is about Don Nick, Emily’s boss, the one she had traveled with. I mean... about her relationship with him. Her illicit affair with him," she replied."Okay, I see..." Oscar nodded.Oscar thought about what Samantha had just revealed, but he could not see the big deal in such a thing. However, he felt bad that Emily had left the house using a different excuse.Seeing that her father was not getting the gist, Samantha quickly added. "He was the one she had spent the night with after the party. She had lured him into the act."At this point, Oscar Lee was shocked. He knew that Emily had gone beyond what he could vouch for, but he never imagined that it had gotten to the extent of luring a man to sleep with her. "She did..." he stuttered."Yes, daddy. And I tried to talk her out of it and make her see a reason to stick with her boyfriend, Tyler, b
