EMILY’S POVI woke up due to the heavy banging on my door,”Emily!!!”Isabella,my stepmother called and kept banging on my door.I groaned and cursed at myself for waking up late,I knew I was done for.Isabella would probably make me starve for days again,I rolled my eyes and groaned.“Emily, if you don’t come out this minute you won’t get anything to eat for the next two days “She said.Great,just what I thought would happen,I facepalmed.I hurriedly got down from bed and rushed to the door, opening it immediately.“No mom please,i'm sorry I overslept, it wasn’t intentional “I said“Don’t call me mother!!!I am not your mother,I can never give birth to a useless and worthless child like you”she retorted.There she goes again,I was already accustomed to those words so it didn’t really have any effect on me anymore.My name is Emily Jones,I'm a 26 years old lady,the heir of my family,but I am now forced to leave this kind of life in my own fathers house.Ever since my dad died,which I found

EMILY POVIt was a bright morning when I woke up and yawned, feeling free because Jezebel and her two little devils, as I loved to call Isabella and her daughter, weren't here to boss me around.I felt relieved,is this what freedom feels like?.I had only been treated badly for a few months ,but it seemed like forever to me.Feeling contented and free,I went to the bathroom and took my bath.I checked the clothes that I brought with me and decided I wanted to appear very simple,so I picked a tight blue jean and black tight fitting off shoulder top,that didn’t require me wearing a bra,because I hated wearing bra.I dressed up and packed my hair in a messy bun,tucked the off shoulder top I wore into my tight jeans and headed out carrying my phone.On my way out,I went to the receptionist post and handed the keys to her.“Good morning,here are the keys,I’ll be back before my time for payment expires” I said, handing her the key.“Ok ma’am,have a nice day”she said smiling.I reciprocated th

EMILY P.O.VI am so excited I got the Job at the Belford’s mansion. At least I would be able to save up some money. Staying with them means I don’t need to worry about accommodation and payment of house rent.The bills will be much easier for me.Granny, the grandmother of the Belford’s,was kind enough to employ me as her personal maid.She is so kind ,humble and polite unlike her grumpy,arrogant,rude and proud son.I always overheard Charlotte and Amelia discussing him,how he is New York's most handsome eligible bachelor and how he refused to date or even touch anyone since after the death of fiancée Sophia.Charlotte always spoke of how she always saw him from a distance each time they went for fundraising or a ball ,she always says she would do anything to be with Ethan,I consider it shameless because that would mean she’s throwing herself at a man,i think to myself and can’t help but roll my eye.Judging by how Ethan treated and spoke to me it shows he clearly doesn’t want me working

EMILY P.O.VThe men who are after me keep banging the door,I look for another way to get out of the room but don’t see any other option asides to jump down throw the window.I peep to window and see that it’s not too high,Luckily for me all my personal belongings fit into my bag.I carry my bag and throw it down and it lands on the floor,thinking fast I fold the bedsheets and tie them up in the form of a rope,tie it to the leg side of the bed and through the other side out the window.I hurriedly use the bedsheets I tie as an assist to climb out the wall through the window.I hear the men chasing me finally break open the door.Luckily for me I am already down and ready to run for my dear life.I see them peep down and one of them shouts”Hey,Emily stop right there”.I pick up my bag and run to the road and hail the next available taxi I see.The taxi driver stops,I hurriedly push my bag inside and tell him to drive faster to the Belford’s Mansion.I look back and see that the SUV is still f

EMILY’S P.O.VOn our way to Ethan’s house,I couldn’t stop thinking about what Granny said. How on earth am I supposed to change this Asshole? Just sitting in his car with him gave me a claustrophobic feeling.But looking at him up close made his handsome increase,his pointed noise and damn he has a kissable lips,he looked like a Greek God,I also noticed he had broad shoulders that would be good for a warm hug ,what was i thinking I shook my head as I screamed in my head”he hates you so you better get your head and thinking straight”I thought and breathed in and out.I could see him through the corner of my eyes,staring at me like I was insane or something.He sat very far away from me. I thought he was going to pass through the door and fall out.I would have been very happy,what a crazy thought,I laughed.He turned and looked at me like I had two heads and asked “what is so funny?”.“This is your car you don’t need to feel uncomfortable because you don’t want to sit in the same place wi
