Emilia Peyton“ She has to be here because the marriage is between Liam and Emilia my dear.” Liam’s father says. Emilia could not believe her ears. She must have heard wrong. “ What do you mean.” She asks looking directly at Liam’s father. He couldn’t be serious because as far as she was concerned, she was not going to be getting married anytime soon and even if she were, it was going to be with someone she loved. Not that she had any.“ Exactly what you heard dear.” Liam’s father says with a remorseful look that she couldn’t quite understand.“ Okay, okay, I think there’s a mix up here.” Aaron speaks up.“ Mr. Kings, I think you have the names all mixed up. Well, it happens. Your son, Liam will be marrying my daughter, Julia, not the niece.” He says while laughing. Julia walks up to Liam, who had left her side minutes ago and attempts to hold him in the arm but is brushed aside by Liam. “ You see, Aaron, we’re not denying the fact that the initial plan was to marry Julia, but seei
Emilia PeytonAfter the dreadful meeting, Emilia had immediately booked the next flight back to Canada. She wasn’t going to stay there a second longer, not after what just happened.Since she left Geneva late in the evening, she had arrived in Canada at 3am. There was no way she was going to be at work tomorrow, she wasn’t supposed to be anyways. She was supposed to spend the night in Geneva and maybe come back the next day, so she wasn’t going to make it to the company either ways. Tomorrow was going to be more like a holiday. Instead of going back to the Peyton Mansion, she had gone to a hotel. Her uncle and his family were going to be leaving Geneva tomorrow and she didn’t want to be in the house when they arrived. She wasn’t ready to face them. It took everything thing in her to not react to what her uncle had done. She couldn’t. Not yet. She hadn’t gotten what she wanted. It was the only reason she still lived with them.THE TRUTHThe truth behind the changed will. She was goin
Liam Kings“ Nothing Lucy, send her in.” He says as he adjusts himself in his chair.A few seconds pass and a slight knock is heard before the door knob turns, indicating that someone was entering.Emilia Peyton comes into view and it takes Liam sometime to realize that she was the one. The last time they met she wore a casual clothing which made her look like a normal person.‘An extremely beautiful normal person’ he thought.If he thought she looked like a goddess the last time he saw her, then there wasn’t yet a word to describe her right now. She was beautiful.“ I see you are already back from Switzerland Mr Kings.” She says as she walks into the office. Her hips swaying without effort. ‘ God damn this woman. '“ I could say the same to you Emilia. Please, call me Liam. ‘ Mr Kings ‘makes it look like you’re referring to my father.” He says standing.She gives a small smile that doesn’t go unnoticed by Liam as she looks around his office. “ It is your name you know, whether it
Emilia PeytonThe meeting with Liam was a bad idea. She admitted it. Not only was she not able to change his mind, he somehow made her speechless.Growing up, Emilia never had a boyfriend or even hung out with boys, hell she didn’t even hang out with girls although she was loved by people because of her looks. It was part of the reasons she had no friends presently. Since her parents died when she still very young, an early age of 7, she could only focus on trying to survive without being trampled upon. So yes, she had never been touched by a man, or woman. She didn’t know what it felt like to be held by a man, well not until earlier today. She was barely managing to not loose her sanity in front of Liam Kings. Inside, she was a complete mess. Emilia started craving for things that she never gave so much thought to. When he came close to her she could swear that her breathe seizedAnd his hands on her waist. Good lord! He knew how to work his hands, she gave him that. “ Oh Go
Emilia PeytonEmilia was glad she made the decision to not check out of the hotel because it looked like she was going to be spending a few days there. She had already packed all her belongings from the house and sent them to one of the many apartments she owned. She hadn’t bothered to furnish them before, she didn’t see the need because no one was living in them. She would move into the house but it was still empty. She would have to put it in order before she could settle in and that would take a few days. So for now, the hotel was going to be her home.She was tired and hungry. She had forgotten to eat with all the trouble going on. She was staying at the royal pavilion hotel, a well known hotel. It was owned by her father’s friend, Mr Daniel McKay. The only person she trusted in this cruel world she was forced to live in. He treated her like she was his daughter and when he heard that she was staying in his hotel, he made sure she got only the best treatment despite not being i
Emilia PeytonLiam wasn’t aware that she had moved out of her uncle’s house. She wasn’t even sure if he knew how to locate the house as she had never seen him there before but then, he was Liam Kings and according to him, he had his ways.She considered calling him but after looking at the time on her phone, she realized that it was already too late and she didn’t want to disturb him or give him something to tease her with. She would have to call him tomorrow morning.**********************************************************************************“ I’d you’re calling to cancel then my answer is no Emilia.” Liam says over the phone. She had called him first thing in the morning. She didn’t want him going to the wrong house. He didn’t sound like he was just waking up from sleep unlike her. His voice was low but steady. But then, like he said, she was jobless.“ I didn’t call to cancel. I gave you my word and I don’t intend to break it.” She replied.“ If you say so. Why did you cal
Emilia PeytonHer neck snaps towards him so fast she was sure it would cause an ache later. “ Two weeks? Are you being serious right now?” She says trying to maintain her calm. “ I am. It would be better that way, for the both of us.” He says. “ And you’re telling me this now.” She says. “ You don’t have to worry about anything. All the arrangements for the wedding will be handled by my sister, Hailey. You’ll be meeting her today. All you have to do is attend the wedding okay?” He adds. She was going to be a guest at her own wedding. The idea wasn’t so bad. After all, this wasn’t a normal wedding. Nodding in response, she turns her head away from him and gets lost in her thoughts. ************************************************************ The car pulls up at Bistro Le Cep, a popular French restaurant that only the richest in the country could afford. Liam leaves the car first and goes over to Emilia’s side to open the door. A valet approaches them and Liam hands the keys over
Emilia Peyton“ How is that possible dear. Liam did not go to Milan two years ago.” Lucia says and the entire room falls silent. Uh oh! I look at Liam, my eyes begging for help. “ Yes I did mum, you seem to have forgotten.” Liam finally says and I nod in response. “ Did you? Oh my dear, I’m so sorry. I’m becoming too forgetful these days.” Lucia says with a sad smile and her husband, Richard gives her a pat on the back. “ It’s alright, it can happen to anyone. I happen to remember because it was the day I met Liam.” I say smiling. Good gracious. Lying to someone as sweet as Lucia was hard. “ A day that changed both our lives.” Liam says looking directly at me. He was such a good actor. I feel my heart beat quicken. It felt almost real. If I didn’t know better, I would’ve thought he was being sincere. “ Would you look at that Richard. Liam finally found love, it feels unreal. Thank you so much Emilia, for coming into my son’s life.” Lucia says as she reaches out to hold my han
