Alex

I sat at my desk in my home office, staring at the photo of Emily on my phone screen. She was smiling in the picture, her eyes bright and full of life. God, she was beautiful. Not just on the outside, but on the inside too. She had a beautiful heart.

I still couldn't believe that Emily had agreed to let her children be tested as kidney donors for Phil. After everything I had done to her, or rather, after everything she thought I had done to her, she was still willing to risk her son's life to save mine.

How had I been so stupid to lose such a good woman? How had I ended up married to a witch like Vanessa while Emily was out there raising my children alone?

Anyone would want to be with a woman who had such a kind and beautiful heart. No wonder Phil had fallen in love with her so quickly. Her kindness and warmth were impossible to resist.

I sighed heavily and picked up my phone. I needed to try Natasha's number again. What she wanted to tell me must be something very important for

    EmilyBefore I could even touch the phone to dial Alex, I heard shouting from outside the room. Gunshots rang out, making me flinch violently against the ropes."What the... " Blade started to say, but the door burst open with a deafening crash.Marcus stormed in first, his weapon drawn, followed by four more of my security guards. They moved with military precision, their movements coordinated and deadly efficient."DROP YOUR WEAPON!" Marcus commanded, his gun trained on Blade.Blade reached for his gun, but he wasn't fast enough. One of my guards fired, hitting him in the shoulder. Blade screamed and crumpled to the ground, his weapon clattering across the concrete floor."Fuck!" Vanessa gasped in panic, trying to escape through the back door I hadn't noticed, but another guard intercepted her. She fought like a wild animal, scratching and kicking, and in the struggle, she was slammed against the wall by one of my guards. I heard her cry out in pain as she clutched her side, but som

    Emily My heart raced with panic as I tried again, pushing harder. Nothing. The door was locked from the outside.God, what is going on?A flutter of unease went through me. "Hello?" I called. "The door is stuck. Can someone help?" I shouted, hitting the door, but there was no responseI pulled out my phone and dialed Nathaniel immediately."Emily? Is everything okay?""The bathroom door is locked. I can't get out.""What? Hold on, I'm coming right now."I waited, my unease growing. This was probably just a malfunction. Old hotel, old doors. Nothing to worry about.Then suddenly, I perceived the smell of smoke.I looked down and saw wisps of white smoke curling under the door. My heart began to race."Hello?" I shouted, pounding on the door. "I'm locked in here! Someone help!"The smoke was getting thicker, filling the small bathroom rapidly. I grabbed a hand towel and ran it under water, pressing it to my nose and mouth. My eyes were starting to burn."HELP!" I screamed, hitting the

    EmilyI was reviewing quarterly reports when my secretary, Rose, knocked on my office door carrying a distinctive golden envelope."Ms. Kings, this just arrived by special courier," she said, placing it on my desk. "It's from Stellar Technologies."I set down my pen and picked up the envelope, feeling the weight of expensive cardstock. Stellar Technologies was a company I had personally invested in two years ago when they were on the verge of bankruptcy. My investment and strategic guidance had helped them become one of the fastest-growing tech companies in the country.I opened the envelope and pulled out an elegantly embossed invitation card. The gold lettering caught the light as I read:"You are cordially invited to Stellar Technologies' Annual Celebration Gala. In honor of our remarkable growth and the visionaries who made it possible. Black tie required. Grand Ballroom, The Regency Hotel. Saturday, 7:00 PM.""It's their annual gala," I said to Rose. "They're celebrating their s

    Emily "I figured you'd skip lunch if someone didn't bring it to you," he said, setting the bags on my desk.I couldn't help but smile. "You know me too well.""That's my job," he said, pulling containers out of the bags. "I got your favorite, fettuccine alfredo with grilled chicken, Caesar salad, and tiramisu for dessert."The smell alone made my mouth water. "You're a lifesaver."Nathaniel cleared a space on my desk and set everything out like a proper meal, complete with real silverware and cloth napkins he'd brought from the restaurant. He even lit a small candle he pulled from his jacket pocket."Nathaniel, you didn't have to do all this," I said, touched by the effort."Yes, I did," he said, sitting down across from me. "You've been under so much stress lately. Let me take care of you, even if it's just for lunch."As we ate, Nathaniel asked about my morning meetings, genuinely interested in the business decisions I'd been making. He had always been good at this, making me feel

    EmilyThe elevator ride down from the ICU floor was tense and silent. Nathaniel stood beside me, his jaw clenched, clearly still upset about the confrontation with Alex. I could feel the anger radiating off him in waves.When we reached the parking garage and were safely inside my car with my security guards giving us privacy, I finally spoke."Nathaniel, that was completely inappropriate," I said, my voice calm but firm."Emily, I... ""Let me finish," I interrupted. "I understand you were trying to protect me, and I appreciate that you care. But you can't behave that way. You can't speak for me or make me feel like I'm something to be fought over."Nathaniel ran his hands through his hair in frustration. "I'm sorry. I really am. It's just... seeing you with him, after everything he did to you... I couldn't help myself.""But that's exactly the problem," I said gently. "You need to help yourself. You need to control those impulses. Alex is the father of my children, Nathaniel. He's g

    Alex I walked back into my mother's room and sank into the chair beside her bed, suddenly exhausted."You really messed things up, Mom," I said quietly to her unconscious form. "You destroyed my marriage because you didn't think Emily was good enough, and now she's with someone else. Someone who gets to hold her and call her his girlfriend while I sit here with nothing."My mother didn't respond, of course. Just kept breathing steadily with the help of machines."But you tried to fix it," I continued, my voice getting softer. "You told Emily the truth. That's something. That's more than Vanessa would ever do."I sat there for what felt like hours, just watching my mother breathe and thinking about everything that had gone wrong in my life. Eventually, I heard footsteps in the hallway and looked up to see Emily standing in the doorway alone."Where's Nathaniel?" I asked, trying to keep my voice neutral."He's in the car," Emily said, coming into the room. "I apologized for the confron
