" Yah!" Emily yelled angrily.Joel could no longer help it as he bursted into laughter.Emily looked startled as she watched her husband. 'what's funny about what I said'After calming down, Joel looked into his wife's eyes with a wide smile plastered on his face."Emily my darling, if you don't like something, say it out." He said."And I'm sorry about that. When we get to the villa, I'll have a thorough bath and I will dispose these clothes.” He added looking down at the shirt and trouser he was wearing.Emily nodded her head meekly."Good" Joel smiled and kissed her on her lips."You should have just slapped her hard and told her never to touch your husband again." Joel teased.Emily sneered, eyeing him.Joel bursted into another round of laughter and kissed his wife again, this time,more slower and longer than before. He kissed her tenderly, their soft lips dancing to a tune being played by their hearts.After a few minutes, grudgingly, Joel pulled away and smooched Emily's forehe
'Isn't this Vincent's house...?’ She thought.Joel got hold of her hand and squeezed it lovingly as they walked into the mansion. He know different thoughts would be going through her mind.Emily looked up at her husband and he smiled at her reassuringly."You knew we were coming, didn't you?" Mrs Chen asked as soon as she sighted her parents seated on a couch.She was sure her parents had spies spying on her and her family.And she knew that even though they had told her they wanted to have nothing to do with her, they still loved her."Why are you here, you disobedient child?" Old master Choi's voice rang out.Although the man was old, his voice still held authority in it.Mrs Chen inhaled deeply, tilting her head to the side as she forced tears back. She fell on her knees."I'm sorry for being disobedient… you were right about him... Please forgive me... Jebal. Please..." Mrs Chen stuttered amidst tears.Old madam Choi who could no longer bear the sight of her daughter who she hadn
As soon as Joel got in the car, he picked up his phone and dialed Dr. Clinton's number."Are they still in the hospital?" He asked as soon as Dr Clinton picked his call.Knowing the 'they' that the CEO was talking about was his brother and his brother's family, Dr. Clinton replied with a "they left the hospital a while ago.”Joel nodded his head like Dr. Clinton could see him from the other side of the phone and hanged up without saying another word.He kick-started the car and drove out if the mansion.Since the Chois also lived in Grand Residential Close, it didn't take him much time to arrive at the villa."Is my brother back yet?" He asked as he parked his car and stepped out of the car."Ye." was the guards' replies.Joel nodded his head curtly and walked into the lounge."Uncle JJ!" Little Pumpkin who had missed his uncle squelched as soon as he saw Joel walk in.The young boy was seated between his parent, watching a movie when Joel walked in.Joel grinned as he carried his nep
After a short while, Emily appeared and the duo walked out of the lounge, hand in hand.***"Call me when you are through with work, and please don't stress yourself at all." Joel pleaded.The couple were now in EWEI and Emily was preparing to step out of the car."Arasseo." Emily replied with a grin on her face.She leaned in and kisses her husband before stepping out of the car.Joel smirked and chuckled as he watched his walk into the the broadcasting building."Go." He ordered the chauffeur."Wait!" He retorted almost immediately as soon as his eyes caught the sight of someone.The chauffeur who was about to start the car stopped.Joel's gaze followed Stephanie as she walked with her manager. He smirked and looked away.It was showtime.He picked up his phone and dialed Noah."Boss." Noah voiced out as soon as he answered the call."It's high time Stephanie left EWEI. Do the needful.""Ye."With that, he hung up."Move it." He ordered the chauffeur and soon, they were out of EWEI.
Slowly,she stood up on her and walked over to Stephanie.Without giving it a thought,she landed a hot slap on her cheek.***Stephanie stared into Emily's eyes in anger and frustration. She would have hit Emily back but on a second thought, she also knew she deserved the slap.She stood up on her feet and scurried out of the hall in shame and disgust.Emily wiped her tears with the back of her hand and helped herself out of the hall without looking back at anybody."Should we go after her?" Min Ah asked Maria as they watched Emily walk out dejectedly."Ani. She needs time alone." Maria replied,sighing.Emily sobbed silently as she walked to her office. She had been such a fool to believe Stephanie had really changed her attitude towards her.She sniffed, turning the doorknob to her her office. She stepped in and froze at the sight of who was sitting on her chair."Why are you crying?" Joel asked, looking into her eyes.Emily pouted her lips sulky, blinking her eyes rapidly as she retur
She smirked and walked down the corridor.***"You caused this!" Stephanie yelled at Carmen as she packed her few belongings.Her body was shaking vigorously in utter anger, "You caused all of this! I regret the day you became my manager!"Carmen who had been trying to keep her cool flew up in anger when she heard Stephanie's last sentence."Mbo? Did you just say you regret the day I became your manager?! I should be the one regretting the day I set my eyes on you!You are so selfish, stingy, arrogant, and aggressive! You complain even at the slightest thing! Nothing pleases you! You accuse other people of sleeping their ways up to the top like you didn't do the same, you fucking whore!" Carmen snapped.Writhing with visible anger, Stephanie raised her hand to whack Carmen's face.But before her hand could land on Carmen's face, Carmen stopped her mid air as she gripped Stephanie's wrist roughly."I'm done!" Carmen stated and pushed Stephanie's hand away.She bounced out of the office

Within a twinkle of an eye, he took of his clothes and raced to the bathroom before his wife would say she had changed her mind.Emily chuckled and thanked God silently for the man he blessed her with. Who would believe a low life like her could send the CEO of Empire World Corporation running with few words.Slowly, she extended her hand towards the drawer and placed the wine glass on it.She unzipped her dress and slipped out of it, leaving her body left with a black bra and pant. She wore Joel's bathrobe that was lying on the bed and headed for the bathroom.There, she saw her husband under the running shower, running his hand through his hair.Taking in every detail of his nakedness with her eyes, she blushed; he was even much more handsome when naked, with water running down his body.Since Joel had his back to the doorway, he didn't see Emily step into the bathroom. With her eyes still on her husband, Emily slid down the bathrobe and silently, she tiptoed to Joel and wrapped her
