Emily. I was scared the whole day, I had thought that Henry must have heard something that night but to my surprise, he didn’t mention anything about it. Right then I knew that I had to do this soon, if I wanted to leave this place with what I wanted then I didn’t need to dally any longer. So the next day I drove out of the mansion, to Riley’s place. I know she would be surprised to see me but I had no other choice but to consult her even though I knew she would talk me out of this. “Emily,” she called in surprise as she opened her door. I smiled, “can I come in?” I asked. She stared at me weirdly before opening the door and created some space for me to go in. “Thank you,” I muttered as I walked in. The place was looking the same as before but I noticed she got new things, that kinda reminds me of something. “Why didn’t you tell me Riley?” I asked, turning around to face her. “Tell you what Emily?” She asked with her hands folded across her chest. “Why didn’t you tell me Ian
Emily. I stayed frozen in shock in my car as I took a closer look at the young boy, there was not a single doubt that he was the exact copy of Ian. He had the same hair as Ian, and even though that was the only thing I could see right now I already knew who that child was. But what he was doing with Gwen is what I had no idea of. That was definitely him, or was he perhaps the reincarnation of Ian? Was he sent to torment me more?I drove out of the place when I was done looking at them, it doesn’t make sense that a miniature version of Ian is living with Gwen and no matter how I think about it I just can’t come up with anything that will give me some explanation why Gwen was with a small version of that demon. I was going to find out, I have to find out what’s going on. I drove to the hotel, parked, and entered the lobby. Since I was frequent in this place, all I had to do was give the receptionist my card and then I was allowed in. The elevator dinged and I stepped out, my mind w
Gwen. It felt like I was being watched. I know this feeling, I had it when I was still a little girl and when I almost got kidnapped for being a rich man’s child. I have the same feeling now so I know what I’m talking about, it isn’t just a hunch, it is more of a sign or warning. This feeling means that something bad is about to happen. But I have been too busy to worry about that, I have been too busy making sure everything we do from a week from now would be perfect, I want us to get that contract. I’m too busy trying to keep up with Henry’s sorry ass and I’m too busy taking care of the kids and planning Jason’s birthday. Yeah, you heard it right. Jason will be seven in two days from now and I had no idea what to do. I came to know that he hadn’t celebrated his birthday since he was born and I felt bad about it so I decided to plan a surprise party for him. Mother and father decided to help me plan the party and even though I disagreed they insisted I knew this party wouldn’t be
Emily. I have tried for a long time now and nothing was working, I couldn’t get his damn signature on the file. He wouldn’t even look at it, he do not give two fucks about me at all. The only time he cared was when he decided to follow me to the hospital for my regular checkups, and up until now I still had suspicions about his five minutes meeting with the doctor when I wasn’t there. I had planned to get him drunk but that didn’t work, I tried mixing it with his office files so he could sigh without noticing it and that didn’t also work so I’m going for the last option I had and that was getting Henry so high that he wouldn’t know what he was doing and then he would say the papers and I will leave. I knew it was a foolproof plan, all I had to do was get Henry home early and then do everything. I know Henry and one thing I have known about him is that he can’t say no to my body even as I am pregnant.So I got everything ready, the room decorated, my lingerie on and the file at the
Emily. No, no. This shouldn’t be happening, it can’t be. Henry does not know about it. He shouldn’t have known, not now when I’m almost close to getting what I want. “Do you have any idea how heartbreaking it is to know that the one person you kept dear in your heart is actually the one person that has and will cause you more pain in your life? That’s how I fucking felt when I was handed this report,” he opened his briefcase and threw a pile of files at me. Still unable to believe what was going on I bent and picked every single piece of paper on the ground and each of them had proof of my infidelity, there were also pictures to back up the claims. He had everything, there was nothing here that wasn’t believable. “Henry….” I called. “Don’t!” He ordered, I couldn’t recognize his voice anymore. He sounded so different from the Henry I know, he sounded pained and hurt and angry. “Don’t you dare call my name bitch!” He warned.I gulped and nodded with my eyes still glued to the file
Gwen. I woke up this morning feeling excited, it was finally Jason’s birthday and I couldn’t wait to know what mother and father pulled off. I jumped out of bed and rushed to the little guy's room, I smiled when I saw him soundly asleep with Jasmine by his side. I cleared my throat and then walked slowly to the bed, I started singing the happy birthday song as I clapped my hands. They didn’t wake up at first but when I started singing it again, Jason got up. He yawned loudly, rubbing his eyes with his hand, and then blinked when he saw me. “Good morning aunt,” he greeted with his morning voice. “Morning Jace. Happy birthday dear!” I told him. At first, he didn’t react to it but soon enough his lips curled up in a smile. “It’s my birthday?” He asked pointing at himself. I nod my head up and down. “Yes, it is you are a year plus today,” I told him. “Is it my birthday mommy?” Jas asked as she got up with her hair all over the place. I chuckled and helped her arrange it
Henry. The guard I appointed to follow Emily around secretly came back with disturbing reports although I expected to hear that. I didn’t want to act rashly, so I decided to do the last thing that would maybe connect Emily and me even if she was out of my life. When she had a test with her doctor I decided to do the DNA test in secret and the result came out. I was shocked when I saw it, it was right there staring at me. The child wasn’t mine, all this while I had been hoping and praying for the child to come out quickly but it isn’t even mine. I abandoned my own child because of another person's child. Was this my karma? Was this the universe's way of punishing me? I couldn’t help but laugh at my predicament, this…all this happening to me right now sounded funny. First, I divorced my wife because of her, ignored my little girl's needs because of her, and yet at the end I didn’t get the happy ever after I was hoping for. It was gone, gone a long time ago. Maybe I was destined n
Henry. The shocked expression on her face was what I wanted to see; she couldn't believe I knew about this file. “Where…..Where did you get that?” She asked, still looking at me with wide eyes filled with shock and fear. I didn't bother answering her as I went through what was written in the file—I knew she missed this file with the ones I had in my office but I had no idea what was in it, I didn’t bother to read it— and I couldn't believe what I was reading. It was shocking; I did not expect this from Emily. She did not love me; she only wanted what I had which was my money. I stared at her in shock, it was my turn to be shocked. I had no idea what was inside, so seeing it for the first time was shocking.“Great, you do not fail to always surprise me, Emily,” I said without taking my eyes from the file. “I,…it’s not what you are thinking Henry, believe me,”“Believe you? You want me to believe you after everything you have done?” I asked and she bobbed her head up and down. “You
