"What are you doing in my kitchen?" Emerald followed him to the kitchen. "Didn't I say, I am going to cook dinner?" Clayton rolled the sleeves of his shirt, ready for action. He then took Emerald's apron. Instead of scolding him, a ghost of a smile was etched on her lips seeing him in a small apron. He looked funny but it did nothing to decrease his attractiveness. He became charming even more. Emerald protested no more. She sat on the chair. "Are you sure you know your way around the kitchen?""You'll see," Clayton took ingredients from the fridge. Clayton caught sight that she yawned a few times while washing the vegetables. "Go and take a nap, I'll wake you up when I'm done." "Okay," Emerald, feeling really tired, did not refuse and went to lay on the couch in the living room. In no time, Emerald drifted off to dreamland.Once in a while, from where he was, Clayton would glance at her.Fulfilled that he was able to do the same to her, Clayton's smile deepened. Clayton saunte

How could his father force a marriage to him that he didn't like? Clayton, a person who was stubborn as a mule, when pressed to do something, usually turned unbending, but this situation was an exception. Meaning to say, he liked Emerald. He was just too afraid to get invested in a relationship. He was afraid Emerald would leave him in the end just like Charlotte. So to save his ego, Clayton made her sign a divorce paper on the day of their first anniversary. This time he wasn't abandoned but the one who left first. "To say sorry… for all the pain I inflicted…" He paused reflectively. "I'm guilty… because of our child." Emerald wanted to teach him a lesson for hurting her so she discarded the thought of telling him the truth. She's got to give him a taste of his own medicine."Emerald, my conscience is bothered and please let me make it up to you. I want us to be friends."The fear of rejection overwhelmed Clayton, in the end he drew back from declaring his love for her and ple

"Red is wasted and can't drive his car. I'm going to pick him up," Emerald yanked her hand from Clayton's grip. "You stay, I'll take care of it," Clayton said and strode towards the door. "No, I will pick him." "No," Clayton said, suppressing his rising anger."I will!" Emerald insisted. Clayton lost his head and roared. "When I said, No. It's No! Understood?" Startled, Emerald took two steps backward and stumbled. Clayton was fast enough to stop the fall by snaking his arm around her waist.He pulled her in his arms and hugged her tenderly. Emerald was in a daze that the things she wished in the past was now happening. She wondered what she would feel when a sober Clayton hugs her. Clayton hugged her before but he was drunk. She remained in his arms without a sign of resistance. "I'm sorry," Clayton whispered on the crown of her head, muffling his voice. Clayton lost control of his emotions at the thought that Red would force himself on her. Just as he did to her a month be

Clayton nodded without correcting Tyson, his driver. His response irritated Emerald and she glared at Clayton but he just shrugged his shoulders. Emerald was about to open her mouth to correct him but Tyson walked around the car to the driver's side. Totally piqued, Emerald did not look at Clayton all through the trip. It's not her style to mislead others and let them think that she and Clayton were together again. After her broken marriage, Emerald learned to differentiate between fantasy and reality. Back then, when she married Clayton, she lived in the world of fantasy. Firmly believing that if she puts effort into their marriage and be a good wife, Clayton will love her back. Now that she had broken free from that delusion, she dared not think that Clayton realized that he fell for her and wanted her back in his life. She isn't an assuming woman. Just because Clayton was treating her well doesn't mean that he loves her. She knew where she stood in Clayton's life and she had

"Do you have proof that Emerald did what you said just now?" A cold voice boomed out of nowhere and took both Jonas and Shannon's attention. Simultaneously, they looked behind them and saw the man they least expected to see. The cousins were unaware that Clayton was behind them listening to what they had to say about Emerald. His blue eyes darkened and anger arose to his chest, hearing the disparaging remarks against his woman. Who gave this shameless woman the right to say things against his Emerald. "Clayton you're here!" Shannon lifted her legs to come close to Clayton. "I miss you." But Clayton's bodyguard was fast to come in between her and Clayton thus successfully, blocking Shannon from coming near Clayton. Jonas was embarrassed at his cousin's behavior and pulled Shannon away. "Let me go!" Shannon yelled at Jonas, pulling her arm from Jonas' tight grip but

Tyson's eyes opened wide in shock. He didn't know that Clayton and Emerald were divorced. What he knew was that there had been misunderstanding between Clayton and Emerald which prompted Emerald to run away. Sweat broke out on Tyson's back. The tension in the car was nearly suffocating Tyson.Remaining morosely silent, Clayton tugged irritably at his tie, untied and unwound it, and pulled it. Emerald trained her eyes outside, refusing to look at Clayton. 'This is the last time she's going to let Clayton pick her up.' Alarmed as he sensed that Emerald was erecting an invisible wall between them, Clayton thought of ways to stop her. If he fails to stop her from building a barrier that would prevent him from getting close to her, the schism between the two of them will widen. He couldn't bear to lose her forever.

Emerald bit her lips. As memories of the past came flooding in."I only learned cooking when I was at your father's house," she said but left out the reason why she persevered in learning how to cook. She learned that Clayton loved home cooked food. Being a believer of the saying, "The nearest way to a man's heart is through his stomach." She had high hopes that cooking what he liked would eventually lead to capturing his heart. Perhaps, to some other men food was effective to get to their hearts but not Clayton. "Did you do that for rne?"The pain of being unscrupulously rejected by him was still too acute for her. It was territory he couldn’t yet traverse but Clayton couldn't hold back and asked anyway. "No, I did that for your father. I was grateful to him," Emerald tried to sound calm and composed but within the depths of her heart she was far from it.
