**Emelia**A week laterThe words of Daniel lingered the entire night, I was going to be meeting Liam’s father tonight months after we got married but It seemed like I was not ready.“Emelia?” Liam’s voice came from the bedroom bringing me back to reality, my outfit was ready for the night but I wasn’t.“IS everything okay?” He asked, worry written all over his face as I smiled vividly nodding my head as I approached the wardrobe to pick up the clothes I was going to wear. Looking at how hot he looked in his black tuxedo and white shirt made me wonder if I was the woman for him“You are not ready?” he asked me and I nodded my head approaching where he was standing. ‘Yes. I was just thinking of what will happen when your father meets me. I mean we have never actually meant before” I said to him as he smiled coming closer to me wrapping his arms around me as h looked into my eyes.“I think it doesn’t matter what he thinks of you. What matters is that I am with you and you are with me”
**Emelia**“Ricardo? What In god’s Name are you doing here?” I asked him, my heart racing fast as he looked at me. “Can we talk in private?” He asked me as I looked back at Liam who was following me behind.“Of course,” I said grabbing him by his arm as I walked away from the building heading towards the back of the house.“How did you get to this party?” I asked him and he smiled vividly his eyes trailing on my body as I swallowed ahead waiting for his answer.“You look very beautiful” He finally said something to me as I scoffed.‘Surely, you didn’t come here just to tell me that? What the hell are you doing here?” I questioned him as he moved closer to where I was and I took a step back. I knew better than having him close to me.“I missed you,” He said almost in a whisper and I just had to look away from him. “Emelia, I only realized what a dick I have been after you left and I kept thinking that what if I had don’t things differently? Would we have been together? I kept on t
**Emelia**I made my way through the house, how was I going to get home if I came with Liam? “Emelia! Emelia!” My mother called after me as I walked out to the fountain, I rolled my eyes turning to look at her. What did she want?“What mum? What is it?” I asked her and she walked over to where I was standing.“Are you okay?” She asked me sounding concerned about me as tears filled my eyes. “Come on mum. You don’t care if I am fine or not! Please just leave me alone” I said walking away from the yard‘There’s no Uber around here.” She shouted after me and I just continued walking away without turning back to look at her. I just wanted to leave this place but there was no hope for me so I guess I would have to endure everything that was happening.“Going somewhere?” I heard Michael’s voice shout as I sighed heavily looking back to where he was standing. “I am fine. I just want to walk around and get some air” I said to him and he walked to where I was standing.‘Surely you don’t
**Liam**I kept on looking at Emelia even as I dove home. She wasn’t talking to me but her attention was focused outside. Is it because of Eleanor? Is it because I didn’t tell her that her sister would be there? Why was she always so insecure around her sister even when she was with other people?We got home and I pulled over, I didn't come immediately and she unbuckled her seat belt opening the door.“Is everything okay?” I asked her as she turned to me nodding her head but I didn’t believe what she was saying to me right now. “Emelia, You haven’t said a word stop me since we left the party,” I said to her before she could step out of the car, she took a deep breath turning to me as I looked at her.“Are you asking me that? Are you sure you want me to answer you?” She asked me as I sighed heavily wanting to hold her hand and she removed her hand from me.“No. I am tired, Liam. I should go and rest” She said getting out of the car and beginning to walk away without looking back. I
**Emelia**I sat in the bedroom looking at the new projects that I was going to work on for the next couple of months. A knock came on the door and I lifted my head to look at the door. I sighed heavily getting up from the bed as I walked to the door.I held the doorknob and opened the door to check who was on the door. “Daniel?” I furrowed my eyebrows.“Good Morning,” He said with a straight face as I looked around wondering why he was here knocking on the door. “I came to pick you up for your lunch meeting,” He said to me as I frowned what was he talking about Lunch meeting? “My lunch meeting? I don’t think I have anything like that with anyone” I said to him confused with what he was talking about. I didn’t have a meeting with anyone.“Mr. Anderson asked me to take you to meet him for lunch,” He said to me as I furrowed. Liam did what> Why didn’t he tell me anything?“I am sorry, But I wasn’t aware of this. Let me call him and tell him that I can’t make it>” I turned on my hee
**Liam**“Hello? Emelia?” I said on the phone, did she call me by mistake? Who was she with?“I hope you don’t mind me asking this. But why don’t you and she not get along? Is it because of something?” Daniel’s voice came on the phone as I swallowed hard. Did he go into my bedroom> With Emelia?“I have always lived under her shadow. My mother always treated me like an unwanted child. Ever since I was young, She used to abuse me” she replied to him, Wait she was abused? By her mother? I needed to make sure that I get the rest of the conversation“Abuse you? What?”“Not like what you think”“Every single time Eleanor made a mistake, she would cover up for her and let me take the blame for her. I would always get the punishment on her behalf” she said and you could hear her voice almost breaking when she said that.“When my father died, my mum asked me to choose between being her daughter and getting my inheritance” “What do you mean? She asked you to choose?”“Eleanor wanted t
**Emelia**“I love you,” Liam said to me as I swallowed hard looking at him. I didn’t know how to respond to him because for the first time in years someone finally confessed that to me.“I love you so much” he whisper to me after he held me tight. I sighed heavily looking at him. “Don’t ever think that what I do, I do it for Eleanor. I just don’t want you to be hurt by everything that’s happening” He assured me as I nodded my head.‘Okay. I understand” I said and he pulled me closer kissing my forehead.“Can we now have lunch in peace?” He asked me as I shook my head. “I have a better idea” I suggested to him and he nodded his head.“Where are we going?” He asked me as I walked with him to the car. “Just give me your car keys. I will show you” I said to him as he furrowed his eyebrows. “Please just trust me,” I said to him and he sighed heavily handing me the car keys.I got in the car and started it, driving off. “Where are we going?” He asked me and I just kept on driving. “It’s
>>>> **Emelia**After getting home from Lola’s restaurant, Liam had gone back to the office and I went straight home because I wanted to finish walking on the projects I had.I went to the kitchen to get myself some water to drink and I ended up bumping into Daniel. ‘I didn’t know you are back” He said to me as I nodded my head while drinking my water.‘Yes. I came back not long ago.” I said to him and he nodded his head looking at me.“Really? How did it go?” He asked me as I pulled a chair sitting down, ‘I think great? We talked about us and had fun” I smiled at him and he reluctantly nodded his head.“Daniel. I wanted to find out something from you” I said to him and he sat back looking at me as I swallowed hard looking at him not sure what to say or how to start.‘That night when you dropped me off at Liam’s house, you said something to me but you never told me the reason” I said to him as he lowered his head.‘I am sorry, I might have just said it without thinking carefully”
