The Fake Marriage To My Worst Nightmare 47. Getting to know him
EMILY POVIt was my first time traveling out of the country and I felt elated about the trip. More so about Leo who had started warming up to me after our fall out. Martha told me how he stayed up all night, waiting for me till he fell asleep. Then he asked her to prepare my favorite meal while he refused to eat till I was back. He had turned romantic towards me which was a rare sight of Leo Robbins. I was amazed when he proposed the vacation and I got the hunch that he wanted to spend more time with me. So many thoughts were crawling into my mind and I struggled to keep calm as well as to control my emotions. My happiness was almost short-lived when he said he'd be announced the new chairman of the group in a couple of weeks which meant that I'd soon be relieved of my wifely duties. However I choose to enjoy the moment and claim whatever I could get in the present. When we arrived at our resort in Maldives, my mind wandered back to Max who had also dreamt of traveling there with
The Fake Marriage To My Worst Nightmare 48. Are we in love?
EMILY POVTalk about the highest level of embarrassment. I had just made a fool of myself right in front of my crush. He ran over to me and helped me up. I had a small scratch on my knees and I was more grateful because I had no bruise on my face. That would destroy the entire holiday. Leo carried me back in bridal style into our suite. He quickly got first aid and applied an ointment on the spot. I bowed my head so I could avoid his eyes. He began to laugh when he realized my whole face was flushed due to the shame of falling on my face.“I’ll pretend I didn’t see anything so you can look at my face,” he said. His comment made me feel worse and I stood up abruptly.“I… We… Are we still touring the resort today? Or I can just rest in the room,” I said in one breath. It was quite obvious that I wanted to avoid him.“What about going scuba diving?” he asked.“You can do that. I’ll just stand by the beach and cheer you on,” I replied.“Cheer me on? I don’t need anyone to cheer me on,” h
The Fake Marriage To My Worst Nightmare 49. A dream or reality?
EMILY POVOur faces were so close and his lips were almost on mine when I withdrew and stood up all of a sudden. The atmosphere grew tense and awkward but it was better than having sex with him. I was pregnant and I was not ready to lose the baby anymore since I had a fragile womb. I could not afford to have rough and passionate sex with a man who might not end up with me and ruin my life. Since none of us was ready to talk, I left the room. "Are you mad at me?" Leo asked after we had spent a few minutes apart. I was already at the villa with the palette and drawing board I had requested for."Of course not. I guess we can't do any swimming today so I decided to paint," I said."Alright! Let's get to it," he said."You want to join me?" I asked, startled by his surprising closeness. "We've discussed this," he said and sat beside me. I felt uneasy with him staring at me but I was soon engrossed in what I was doing to pay him any attention. I spent the rest of the day working on the

The Fake Marriage To My Worst Nightmare 51. Do what couples do
EMILY POVHis hand explored my underpants as he drew at it. He kissed me hard and long and I was lost in the passionate moment until he kissed my neck down to my chest. I recalled that I resolved not to have any kind of sex with any man till I delivered my baby. I was not ready to risk the only shot I had at being a mother so I opened my shut eyes. His lips brushed over my nipples and I moaned but I had to do something. “Stop! Stop, Leo! We can’t do this,” I screamed, pushing him off me.“What is that supposed to mean? I don’t understand what you’re saying,” he said.“I don’t know! All I know is that this is wrong and we should not do this,” I said covering my breasts.“You’re my wife so I don’t see anything wrong in having sex with you. Stop depriving me of what’s mine,” he yelled.“But I’m not your real wife. I’m just an employee as you always claim. I can’t do this. You don’t even want me to get pregnant, yet you want to sleep with me. Aren’t you being selfish?” I said, avoiding

While he was there, Annabel saw him at the bar and went to him. She seduced him and they both made love. I was the biggest fool in the universe but I did not know. I brought my problem to the cause of the problem in search of a solution. She was my rival yet I took her as a dear friend."Thank you, Emily. I feel so happy about it. I'll fill you in on the details soon," she said and winked at me. I chuckled and sighed."Is anything the problem? I was about to ask why you showed up here unannounced today. It's so unlike you," she said."I have a huge problem and I don't know how to fix it. You're the only friend I can share it with," I said."Let's hear it!" she said and I tried hard to mask my sad feelings with laughter."I had a fallout with Leo.

The Fake Marriage To My Worst Nightmare 53. Guilt like a worm
LEO POV"Have I done something wrong by bringing lunch to you? Jude said you haven't eaten today," she said "And how is that your concern? Get out of my office right now before I do something I might regret," I said. It was clear that my actions towards her were uncalled for but guilt had eaten me up. I could not even stand to look her directly in the eye. I just wanted peace from all the issues concerning women in my life. I had never had to battle with so much emotional strain and stress until Emily showed up. I never liked women. They were just playing things to me and I wanted nothing more but with Emily, I wanted so much more. Although, I felt hurt by her reaction. She has spurred me on by returning my advances but she suddenly had to cut me off with her harsh words. I could see tears gathering in her eyes as I ordered her to leave.

Annabel was all over me, making a simple breakfast for me and smothering me with kisses."I have to go now," I said after taking my bath."But I just made you breakfast!" she exclaimed."I never told you that I was hungry," I replied."This isn't our first time together. You would always eat breakfast when I make one for you. What changed?" she asked."I don't have to explain myself to you or anybody. I'll send the money to you," I said "Is this about Emily again?
