~ Emmerson ~

Our smiles were bright; our joy knew no bounds at our wedding reception.

We’d been surrounded by family and friends from all around the world, and we couldn’t be happier that the day we’d looked forward to our whole lives finally came into manifestation.

My best man, Aaron Hindley, had commented on how lucky we’d both been to be each other’s firsts, and now… We were going to be living a happy ever after.

We’d laughed heartily as the truth dawned on us that we were one of the minori

  • The Billionaire’s Unwanted Wife   “I knew it!”

    ~ Isabella ~I found myself going back on the memory line, to the very first time… I’d heard of Emmerson Winters. I was in junior high school when I first heard about him… the exceptional teen who was already making millions in real estate. The first news of him had caused a stir in our entire school, and almost everyone wanted to meet him… including me.Though unlike the other girls who made their affection for him obvious… mine had been on a low-key level, where I had conducted numerous secret research projects on him.He’d seemed interesting and impressive to me… until I later found out about Sally, his high school sweetheart, and well… took several steps backwards. It was a well-known fact that the best way to experience a bitter heartache is to be head over heels in love with a guy who has a girlfriend he loves and adores… and well, I didn’t want to go through that pain. I’d assumed my feelings had completely faded until we got married in an arranged manner. Though my barest

  • The Billionaire’s Unwanted Wife   “You could be my Grandpa?!”

    ~ Isabella ~“When will you be back?” I read and reread Kane’s text over and over as I sat down on my bed. Though it was a simple question…That could be interpreted as “When will you be back in Australia?”, “When will you be back to work?” and so on.But I knew better. “Soon.” I sent, though I couldn’t promise I’d be as fully sane as I previously had been… before Emmerson came back into my life, and I regained my memory. I couldn’t promise that I’d be fine after all this passes; I could only try. I dropped my phone and picked up the novel I’d been reading… it was titled “Back to Us.”I’d never been a second-chance romance girlie until now… that I have found myself in its spiral.But really… is there such a thing as second chances?Does life really give second chances? Or are these books simply written to give people false hope?But then… I couldn’t deny they gave me hope, in the littlest of ways.“Penny for your thoughts?” It’s been several hours since I’d last seen Emilia Winte

  • The Billionaire’s Unwanted Wife   “She looks like me?!”

    ~ Emmerson ~It’s been over an hour since Isabella and I sat in front of each other in the reception… while the doctor’s ran some tests on Lily. I stole a glance at her, and relaxed when she wasn’t looking at me. Her gaze was looking downwards, her palms clasped on her laps, and I couldn’t help but wonder what she was thinking about. “Mr Winters.” The Doctor’s words interrupted my thoughts and I watched Isabella’s gaze move upwards in sharp alert. It almost felt like she’d been waiting for that moment since forever. “Is she okay?” She spoke before I could.“Yes, she is… she’d be commencing chemotherapy next week and hopefully it all gets better…”“Okay….”“But…?!”He smiled, as if expecting we’d asked that question. “The bone marrow transplant is still very much important… and the soon we’d done it… the better.”“Okay, Doctor….” He smiled, before walking away… probably back to his office or to see other patients.I hated this place!Yet, I sat down back… gazing blankly at the whit

  • The Billionaire’s Unwanted Wife   Exactly like, Lily.

    ~ Isabella ~“Are you my mom?" The singular question had shattered something in me… and all of a sudden, I couldn’t keep the tears at bay… So I let them fall down as I held onto my daughter. The one I never knew existed until a few days ago… The same one I had always longed for, without realizing just how much. “I’m sorry…” I whimpered as her tears began to soak my shirt. I could only imagine what Emmerson had told her about her mom… How much she must have missed me. Oh no…!How could I have missed out on seven whole years of my daughter’s life?I didn’t get to feed her, nor did I get the chance to teach her how to walk or read…The first word she’d spoken wasn’t “Mom,” and the first love she’d known wasn’t the love of a mother… and until now… she didn’t know me, and neither did I.“I always knew I had a mom… somewhere. My mom couldn’t possibly be dead… Her whisper-like words broke my heart. I could only imagine how tough it must have been for her.“I’m sorry, honey…” I replied, hol

  • The Billionaire’s Unwanted Wife   “Are you my Mom?”

    ~ Emmerson ~Leukemia!The singular word kept ringing in my head like a distant echo.Over the past few hours… I had turned the internet upside down in my quest to search for every single thing I could find on the deadly illness.And soon stumbled on an article that talks about how it is a disease that happens to less than five in hundred thousand kids.So why does it have to be my daughter?!But come to think of… If Lily had leukemia… What’s the probability that her twin doesn’t? I’d asked.My fear was eradicated after a few more research as I soon figured that it was very possible for one twin to be affected by the deadly illness and the other left unaffected.“Dad… what happened to me?” were the first words my daughter said when she opened her eyes. Though color has returned to her cheeks… she still looked so frail. And just the thought of what cancer is doing to her body system… makes me want to rage. Oh… how I wish cancer were a person I could take down with a few blows!“You f

  • The Billionaire’s Unwanted Wife   That could be us.

    ~ Isabella ~“Will I make friends, Mom?” Lily asked for the umpteenth time that morning… yet as always, I stared at her through the mirror with a smile. “Yes, honey… you’ll make lots of friends.” “Thanks, Mom.” The word “Mom” causing my heart to skip a wild beat. Though it’s been almost a month since she’d started calling me that. Hearing it never ceases to make my heart soar. We arrived at the school just in time to watch other parents arrive with their kids and walk hand in hand with them towards the entrance.I’d just stepped out of the car…when a particular family caught my eyes. It was a young man and woman with their twin female kids… The identical twins were dressed in similar outfits and had the same brand of school bag strapped around them. They held each other’s hand happily as their parents held their hands on both sides. My eyes met with the mother… and she smiled. It was a genuine smile that could only come from someone who lived a full life and was super happy to sh

    ~ Isabella ~“I never loved you and never will!”“You are such a slut!”“I hate you and your child! Go die!” The words continued, until I felt my body been shaken, rather violently.“Bell!

    ~ Emmerson ~“You slut, how dare you act like you own this house when you clearly don’t?” Sally’s voice echoed in my head, followed by Isabella’s scream as she rolled down the stairs in agony, and by the time she got to the floor… her body was covered in blood.I stood there frightened, unable to d

She was standing in front of me in her signature black and white outfit, which gleamed with her skin tone.Barrister Junie. It still felt surreal to call her that, but that was,
