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. She had made lunch for me but I could never taste her meal after what I had done. "If that's what you want, then I'll leave. You can have your m
The Fake Marriage To My Worst Nightmare 54. A bigger dilemma
LEO POV"Should I leave? Your wife isn't ready to give you all this cause if she was, you won't be here sulking like a child. I know you, Leo. I'm here to save you so let me do my thing," she said and unzipped her gown. Her dress fell down and she stood naked in front of me. With all I had gone through that night, she was the relief I needed and I made love to her passionately. It became my greatest regret after I woke up in the morning and realized what I had done. 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? You come to me in search of relief and I give you my enti
The Fake Marriage To My Worst Nightmare 55. Leo loses face
LEO POV"Father and the board must have seen this. This is a deliberate act to spoil my image. The person did a lot of optimization to get it to trend in no time. Get through to our PR department so that they can start a quick damage control. I need to solve this immediately. Nothing can stop me from becoming the chairman," I said and cut the call. I made several calls as I dressed for work. I needed to get in before the pressmen did. When I stepped out of my room, I saw Emily at the end of the staircase. She had a worried look on her face as I approached her. "I just got off the phone with a team member who had to go to the office early today and she said the pressmen are already outside the office," she said. "I have it all under control. You don't have to worry about me," I said, walking out on her but I realized that she might take the biggest hit. The reporters would overcrowd her because she is my wife. "How about we go to work together? There's a secret room that is only kn
The Fake Marriage To My Worst Nightmare 56. Before the scandal worsens
LEO POV"That means you guys should move fast. Get the best hacker to do the job. I know the poster has not been located because he's also good but I want someone better. Get a message across to him and offer him a hundred thousand dollars. We'll move from there," I said. Jude nodded and walked swiftly out of my office. I stood up and paced the grounds of my office. I took out my phone and the notifications that came in could make it explode. I shut it off then a call came in. It was from Emily. I hesitated then finally picked the call."What do you want?" I asked."I want you to know that I'm here for you. No matter what anyone says, I'll be here to support you," she said. In a way, her words made sense to me. I felt calm and peace as I heard her voice."I appreciate the gesture. If it isn't comfortable for you, you can head home. I'll get a driver to take you so you don't get dragged out by those pressmen," I said."I'm fine. I can't run from this while you're trying so hard to sor
The Fake Marriage To My Worst Nightmare 57. Bitten the second time
LEO POV"He has to stop the video from loading, sir. We've got only a minute left before it goes out," Jude said, placing the system in front of him. One of the men stood at his back and another in front of him. They untied one of his hands and he stopped the video before it was posted. The hacker we had found came in immediately and took the computer. He began to work on deleting all the pictures and videos as well as pulling the blog down. While we focused on pulling the blog down, he tried to get himself out of the man's grip and bit his arm but the man was quick to hold him firmly. The men had the poster's hand tied back to the chair. He was starting to grow weak and his body was drenched in blood and sweat."Did you say Emily, my wife, instructed you to post those videos?!" I yelled."Yes, she did. I was simply doing my job," he said and began to cough. I stood up and signaled to one of the men. He hit the poster's head with his hand and when it hit the spot, the poster lost c
The Fake Marriage To My Worst Nightmare 58. Emily in shambles
EMILY POVI had been so worried about Leo all day. I would have kept calling him but that might make me a nuisance. The day was a long one with the company in an uproar. I saw so many faces I had never seen before although I spent the most part of the day in my office. I was sure that the employees would bombard me with several questions if I showed up. There would also be numerous gossips too and I could not stand them. I left the company late into the night and Leo's personal driver took me home. After undressing, I could not eat dinner. My mind was filled with thoughts of Leo and what he might be going through. I decided to stand by the porch and wait for him to arrive because I could not sit around and do nothing. However, Leo's reaction was not what I had expected. It was the second time he had laid a serious accusation against me."I would never do something like that to you. You know I would never do it," I said."I don't know. I don't know you and the kind of person you've
The Fake Marriage To My Worst Nightmare 59. An attempt to clear her name
EMILY POVOn second thoughts, I contemplated what her actions would be if she found out that I was in a contract marriage and my pregnancy must not be revealed. It would be quite awkward to tell my story."I'm worried about carrying a baby for a man who's always in such a mess," I said and I needed no one to tell me that I sounded stupid.Dr. Maureen let out another laugh and held my hand across the table."That's what marriages are, my darling. Sometimes sweet, sometimes sour. Since you love him, work things out with your man. It's already good since you have a little baby coming your way," she said and it made me sad. I wished the baby was out of the way so I would leave the marriage with no regrets or pain."Keep your stress level down. Don't think too hard about it. You've been doing great with the baby and you'll be past your trimester soon. Once you start showing, you'll have to be extra careful," she advised."Thank you, Doctor," I said and grabbed my bag."Have you checked on
The Fake Marriage To My Worst Nightmare 60. Emily meets the poster
EMILY POVI heaved a deep sigh and my lips shaped into a beautiful smile."To everyone who was concerned about me, I appreciate you all. I am so grateful for your love and support. However, I beseech you all to refrain from attacking my husband. I love Leo deeply and can't bear to see him hurt. My husband might have been a playboy before we got married but I am confident that he has never cheated on me after our wedding. You've all been our pillar of support and I wish that you would continue to support us in providing you the best services and products through R & B Groups. Thank you," I said and Jude helped me climb down the podium. Some of the reporters still wanted to ask questions but I gave them no audience. I stepped out of the conference room and the face that stared back at me made me tremble. Leo was there, in his suit and his face held no emotion. When the journalists realized that he was standing outside with me, they all left the conference room to take pictures of us.
