Emma

I took a deep breath and closed my eyes. My head throbbed from too little sleep, and I was still recovering from the accident. My ribs still ached from my injuries and reminded me of how close I had come to losing my baby. The fear and stress from those long hours in the hospital, not knowing if either of us would make it, was still haunting me. Yet, there he was, unable to get himself a glass of water. How could he be so thoughtless?

And yet, I set aside my physical pain and found myself willing to serve Andrew with his petty request.

Like I always did.

I moved toward the kitchen without a word. I didn’t look at him, but my peripheral vision could see him observing my every move. I prepared a glass of lukewarm water and a glass of jasmine for him just so he could be satisfied with both.

“Still giving me the cold shoulder, huh?” His voice echoed over from the living room. When I turned in the direction of the sound, I saw him standing by the door. His shirt was half unbuttone

    Emma“So, am I supposed to be afraid now?” I countered. Andrew’s smile disappeared and is aw how his jaw tensed. One of the men from Andrew’s group raised his voice. “Enough with this madness, you bitch!” He yelled. I turned to look and remembered who it was. He was one of those 3 CEO idiots who rode into Jessica and Mathilde’s madness. James Celis of Brixton Corp. “She let this small success get into her head. Probably thinks everybody is under her feet.” Another VIP stepped forward, commenting. It was Austin White of Ruby Enterprise. Gosh! Had they not known any better? “Creston City will not bow to you!” It was the scream of the rest of the banned VIPs who walked with Andrew tonight. Their raging voices echoed in the entire hall. They no longer hide any contempt.They looked like a bunch of clowns without makeup. What a shame. I couldn’t even lay my eyes on them for a minute. Most of them were fools and driven by greed. Their personalities were rotten up to the bottom of the

    EmmaI could hear nothing aside from the ticking clock and the pounding of my own heart. The room was filled with silence. I was sitting on the single couch fidgeting my fingers. Each beat of my heart forced the air inside my lungs. Any minute now, I’ll be out wearing a different person. “Did I really make it?” I whispered under my breath, shaking my legs. It still felt unreal. It’s like a wild dream manifested into reality. Everything shifted into reality in a swift time. I was only daydreaming about this moment years ago. Crestwood City… where all shattered pieces of myself were scattered publicly. The very place that pushed me to go beyond my limits was now acknowledging my presence. The years went back flashing in my head. The miseries I carried along with me were slowly fading away. I climbed into the ladder of prosperity and power. From nothing, I built myself brick by brick into something. I could barely recognize myself now. Today, I was going out there, in public, as

    EmmaIt was a typical morning inside my office. Ara and I were surrounded by files, tablets, and half-finished cups of tea inside my office. We were going over the final list for tomorrow’s auction. Everything was moving forward, just as planned, despite the unexpected fiasco that happened last time. “We got final confirmation from the Dravos suppliers,” Ara said while tapping on her screen. “Everything is accounted for, including the rare batches from Blight Coast.”I nodded. “Good. Did you check if the preservation logs match the QC reports?”She tilted her tablet toward me. “I did. I reviewed them myself.”“What about the payment channels? Any system lag?”“They’re clean. Jasmin and I ran two separate tests. All payments went through instantly.”I scanned the files in front of me. “We’re going with full access for the auction, right?”Ara nodded. “Yes. Since most of the old bidders are banned, there’s no need to limit access. The new clients prefer open listings anyway. It helps b

    EmmaI walked out of the building without looking back. People from the Medcare Pharma building were giving me the looks but I didn’t care. To hell with them and everyone in it! I got into my car and closed the door hard. It made a loud sound and turned on the engine. I wanted no time going home. After all, I already got what I came here for. It was up to Emma whether to do the right thing or not. What I wanted at this point was to go home and rest. With all the things that happened these past few days, I suddenly feel the exhaustion now.. But my plan to get home as soon as possible was put on hold because of an unexpected road fix. Really? It really happened today, of all days? I cursed and turned around. I had no choice but to take an alternate route. Although it was one that was twice as long as the road I needed to take. I had no choice, did I? The road in front of me was long and empty. It turned slowly between the trees. There were a few signs and fewer cars on the road. Y

    EmmaHis jaw tightened as he slowly stood up holding his side with one hand. The proud look on his face was gone. He turned serious. He was clearly embarrassed. Well, good. That was what I was aiming for anyway. I want to shame him! I want to let him know that he no longer has a say in my life anymore. I am done being his emotional punching bag.I stayed quiet and he didn’t move. I was with him for so many years so I knew he was waiting for something. Maybe, a hesitation. Or fear. Or worse, regret. But he could wait until the end of the world and he would never get it. For those signs of weakness were no longer a part of me. I already took them out of my system. In short, I was no longer weak. “So you really mean it,” he said after a while. He blinked fast and I felt his surprise to what I did. I coudn’t blame him. This was the first time I hurt him with my own hands and threatened him like I really meant it. “Yes, I do,” I confirmed with my head held high. “You have no right to t

    EmmaAndrew’s eyes landed on mine. For a while, the room went silent. We both didn’t move and remained staring at each other.Smirking, he walked inside and scanned around. He looked like an inspector with the way he was checking everything. The chairs, tables, bulletin boards, everything. He walked confidently like he had been in the place multiple times despite entering here for the first time. I took a deep breath and realized something. Five years had passed and Andrew was still the same. He was entitled, arrogant and insensitive. He still moved like the world owed him everything life has to offer. In his eyes, the world revolved around him. But not in my world. Not inside Medcare Pharma. I stood straighter and stepped in front of Jenna and her team. It was my way of telling them I would protect them from anything stupid Andrew might do. They were inside my territory, it was only proper I protect them. I tried to steady my nerves as I talked to Andrew. “You’re interrupting so
