Gwen. I was busy all through the day trying to come up with a better proposal with the planning team for this year's project. I wanted everything to be perfect and want to make sure we get this deal. I’m going to fight Henry for this and I don’t care if we have to see each other the whole time. “I’m about to leave now Gwen, do you need anything?” Alice asked walking into the office. Leaving? She was leaving now, what time was it? I picked my phone up and cursed when I saw it was super late. It was eight twenty and I was still here and she was still here. Why on earth is she still here this late? “You can leave Alice and no, I don’t want anything.” She nodded. “Sorry for keeping you here this late,” I apologized. She shook her head with a smile, “Don’t bother about it,” I smiled at her. “Goodnight Gwen,” “Night,” I sighed and rested my hand on my head. I was tired, I looked at my phone again and suddenly realized I was missing something. I stared at the phone
Henry. I never thought it would be easy to get Gwen’s forgiveness. I know everyone was probably wondering why the sudden change of heart. Why am I so concerned with Gwen when I didn’t do anything for her when I never cared for her even while we were married? The truth was that…..I do not know. I had no idea what was wrong with me, why I was so interested in her business, in her personal life, and why I gets fucking jealous when that lawyer is near her. Gwen has also asked me what was wrong with me, and I don’t know. I had no idea why I was feeling this way and why it felt like a very huge part of me was missing. I got to the company and with how everyone was looking at me, I knew they didn't know about Gwen’s and my divorce yet. They had no idea and that was great, I walked up to the receptionist and requested a meeting with Gwen but instead got rejected right away after I mentioned my name to her. It felt embarrassing but like I said, I was expecting that. I didn’t fight or tr
Henry. She sat there without moving, with arms wrapped around her protectively like she was going to get hurt if she ever let go of herself. “Emily,” I called and even that didn’t get her to bring her head up. She kept it buried between he knees as she stayed there, swaying herself from side to side. I couldn’t help but imagine what on earth happened to her, what happened in this place. “Are you alright?” I asked still standing where I was, I don’t know how she would react if I walked towards her. “Emily?” I called again. I couldn’t take her silence anymore, I walked up to her and knelt beside her. I held her hand but quickly retracted it when she moved back in shock. “Emily,” I called softly this time. “It’s me,” I started, jeez I haven’t done this before. I have not comforted anyone before so how the hell am I going to go with this? “It Henry Emily, I’m here now. You don’t have to be scared anymore,” I said hoping she would at least bring her head up and look at me. I was
Gwen. It was the day we got to know the DNA test results, and I was feeling jittery about it. I have no idea what to do if Jason really turns out to be Emily’s son. I don’t know if I should let her take him or let Jason choose and I did ask him this morning, I wanted to know if he would ever go with his mother if he finds her but that didn’t end well so I let it go. We got to the hospital, annoying Ryan and I….yes I called him annoying because that’s what he’s. He refused to talk to me after our second failed date but I did apologize to him, over and over again. “Wait here, I will go see the doctor first,” he said, and without waiting for me to answer he left. I glared at his back before doing what he said. I slumped on the nearest chair in the hallway as I waited for Ryan, he spent about 5 minutes in the doctor's office before coming out with a little envelope. I got up on my feet immediately when I saw him and rushed to his side. “What did the test say?” Ryan stretched the li
Henry. “What do you mean you couldn’t find anything about him?” I yelled at the man standing in front of me. “I tried searching for him but it felt like the whole thing was wiped. His name wasn’t in the data and neither has anyone with that name associated themselves with Miss Emily,” he answered. I paced up and down, rubbing my hands together. Nothing, they couldn’t find anything about this Ian and neither had anyone with this name been around Emily, so I do not know if what Emily said was true or not. “Is that all?” I asked sighing heavily. “Yes.”“You can leave,” he nodded and then turned to leave but then paused and turned back. “Is there something you need? If it’s about your payment, don’t worry I will send it to you before you get home,” I said with a slight frown. “No, boss. It isn’t about my payment, I found something while going through Miss Emily’s file and I think you might want to know about it,” he said. “What’s it?” I asked, already interested in what he was goi
Gwen. After trying to decide if I should tell Henry or not, here I am walking into Henry’s company with the evidence Ryan found and the DNA report I got from the hospital. Coming here, I didn’t believe Henry would believe what I was going to say but for the sake of the little relationship we had, I wanted to help him. He shouldn’t live with a lying bitch just because he’s in love with her, I care for him. I still do and I don’t think anything is going to change that. The receptionist let me in and I was surprised by it, I had thought Henry would tell his staff not to let me in any time I was here. But guess they do not know about our divorce yet. The secretary Lola saw me and her face immediately blossomed with a smile. “Good morning Mrs Baldwin, what can I help you with?” She asked with her warm smile. I wanted to correct her but I didn’t have the heart to do so. “Is your boss in?” I asked. She nodded and muttered a ‘a minute please’ before going to Henry’s office. My heart w
Henry. I had thought I had heard it all this morning but guess what Steve gave to me was just the icing on top and not the whole thing. Gwen had evidence and she wasn’t just saying this because she hated Emily, I knew she wasn’t. She was doing this because she wanted me to know what kind of person Emily was, and what kind of person she was hiding from me and the whole world. Gwen always has a good heart, and one thing I know is that this was true. “Look Gwen, I’m not saying this to upset you or to make you feel bad but it’s….it’s just so hard to believe. Is this child even mine?” I asked, staring at her confused. But I noticed she wasn’t looking at me but my hand that was holding hers. “Let go of my arm Henry,” she said and I quickly took my hand off hers. “Sorry,”“Believe me or not Henry but you should know this isn’t the first time Emily has been acting this way. I knew nothing about this because we weren’t together anymore, Emily broke my trust so I decided to stay away from
Emily. I paced around the room thinking of what to do. These days had been shitty for me and with Ian’s threat and his wish to see his child, I have been stressed. I didn’t have enough resources to find the child but the little I had I have to pour everything into it. I want the child found, not because I want to take him back but because I want to get free from Ian’s grasp. He was the only thing between Ian and me and I didn’t care if Ian wanted him because he wanted to punish the child or kill him. He can do whatever the fucks he likes when he gets the child. I have done enough for him and yet he still showed me how roguish and animalistic he would always be. He threatened me because I couldn’t send the money on time to him.Those boys, those walls cracks, and the words they said to me wouldn’t leave my head. I was thankful none of them touched me, I knew they wouldn’t because they wouldn’t dare disrespect Ian. To them, I was Ian’s property and no harm should come to me—I heard
