**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”
**Eleanor**“Are you okay?” My mother asked me as I nodded my head, she has been worried about me ever since I came back and found that Emelia was very comfortable living as Liam’s wife.“I spoke to Emma, she will be coming through for the fundraiser. It’s very important that-“My mother wanted to say as I looked at her.‘Mum. I know what I am meant to be doing. Don’t worry about it” I said to her and she sighed heavily looking at me.‘How can I not worry when lately you keep on missing things? Is everything okay with you and Arthur?” She asked me and I nodded my head, I didn’t want her worrying about the fundraiser that I usually organize.‘But what’s happening? You have been zoning out lately and haven’t been paying attention to anything” She went on complaining as I turned to look at her and she furrowed her eyebrows.“Arthur has been distant lately.” I started as she nodded her head. ‘I knew something was wrong with you but you kept on insisting that you are fin. Have you been
**Eleanor**Weeks Later.Arthur. Arthur betrayed me and I was so stupid enough to trust him. I stood by the table watching Emelia and Liam talking, he seemed to be taken by her. He would whisper things in her ears and she giggles looking down.‘I know that look” Amy brought me back to reality as she came to stand closer to where I was. I sighed heavily moving away from her and she shook her head.“No. Don’t even think about it” she said as I chuckled turning to look at her, I knew she has an idea of what I wanted to do.“Let her be. We have been through this road already and you know how it ended for you” she said to me as I scoffed gulping down my champagne.“Why do you always overthink things? I am perfectly fine. Don’t worry about it” I mischievously smiled at her grabbing another glass of champagne from the waiter who was passing by.“Let them be. She seems happy. Don’t ruin it for her” She whispered to me as I smiled turning around, I had already made up my mind on what to do.
