When I opened my eyes, I was standing before the congregation, holding a wedding ring, and ready to tie the knot with Daniel... I was back to five years ago, when I first married Daniel. In my past life, I gave my all to the people around me, but still got broken. My adopted parents forced me to absorb the life of their missing daughter... I always wore her favourite dress, eat her favourite meal, learned to act and speak like her, and even answered her name. Still, I didn't complain, but once they finally found her, they abandoned me. I was going to take everything and pretend I was fine, but where I drew the line was when my sister asked for my husband, Daniel to marry her in order to make her wish come true. He agreed, I filed for a divorce, but before I could leave, my sister murdered me in cold blood. I thought it was all over, but here I am, standing before Daniel, ready to marry him again. This time, I won't make the same mistake again...
Voir plusEMMA POV I stood at the entrance, eyes fixed on El and Daniel. He was leaning towards her, wiping her lips with his thumb. Back then, I would've felt jealous, but I felt nothing. Not even the tiniest bit of anger or jealousy. I sighed when I recalled that this is the newly opened restaurant that Eleanor told me about. I had gotten a text from Chloe a few minutes after Eleanor left the house, asking that we hang out here for dinner. Chloe sent me the name of the restaurant and the address. How could I possibly know that it was the same place these two were hanging out. I saw a flicker of smirk on her lips before she waved at me, “Over here, Emma,” I stared for a moment. Since I'm already here and that bitch has been craving for a show, then why not just give her? Let's see what she's got up her sleeves. Daniel looked back at me over his shoulder as I approached them, shock creeping up his face. I pulled out a chair and sat at their table. El smiled. That kind of smile that
ELEANOR POV “It's the newly opened restaurant in the city. I heard they have nice meals there. So, will you come?”Emma stared silently for a moment, then replied coldly with a ‘NO!’ My jaw tightened, but I remained calm. I wore a soft smile and nodded, "Alright then. That’s a shame—we were really looking forward to seeing you there.". I turned and left. Let’s see how this plays out. If she shows up later, then my hunch will be right.But first things first, I need to confirm if she still loves Daniel. That way, I can have something to my advantage. Back in my room, I texted Daniel. ‘I suddenly remembered that I don't have anything to wear. Can you help me pick out a dress?’ His reply came in almost immediately. ‘Yeah, sure. I'll send a dress over’ A smirk curled round my lips. Perfect! This is working according to my plans. A few minutes later, I got another text from Daniel. The delivery guy was here already. ***** I walked into the living room gracefully
EMMA POV Chloe was already waiting in the café when I arrived. I stood at the door, staring at her with a smile on my face. Chloe has been my best friend since middle school. She and Daniel were the only one who ever cared about me. At least that was what I thought until Daniel's betrayal. After Eleanor came back and I was neglected at home, Chloe was the only one there for me. She was the sister I never had. She beamed with smiles, waving at me from where she sat. Had I really died back then, I wouldn't have gotten to see her beautiful face again. That thought made my chest tighten. “What are you waiting for? Come over here,” she said, and I smiled before walking up to her. “Hey, sweetie!” She squealed excitedly, standing up to hug me. “I've missed you so much,” “I've missed you too,” We settled in, and she ordered my favourite coffee, taking note of little detail… as always. “So, did you say you found something?” I blinked, full of hope. While dad has been
EMMA POV I was forced to join the ‘family’ dinner after what happened. I didn't want to, but was curious about what Eleanor had up her sleeves. The first thing that caught my attention when I walked into the dining room was Eleanor's dress. She was cladded in a white see-through top and bum shot. “Hey… You're here?” She smiled as she quickly stood and pulled out a chair for me. Memories of what happened earlier clawed back into my mind. That would've broken my heart had that happened back then, but I had since lost faith in my parents, so whatever they do is their business. I've made up my mind that I won't let any of their actions get to me. I stood staring at everyone for a moment, trying to remember if this had happened before, but I was sure it didn't. My eyes met Eleanor. I knew she was up to something. She didn't just set this dinner for nothing, and that's exactly what I'm here for. To find out what she's up to. I ignored her and pulled out a chair to sit. El sighed,
