“You want what?!” Isabel screamed at Marcus.“A ring, and my Friday schedule to be cleared,”“You're going to propose? To who?!” “No, I'm going to get married on Friday,” Marcus clarified to a very livid Isabel.“I don't understand you, at all. You've gone crazy!” Isabel yelled at him.“Isabel,” “It's that Elena isn't it? What do you see in her?” She asked and moved closer to him, Marcus took a step back, a little scared of what she might do to him. He had never seen her that mad before.“Isabel—”“No, tell me. Is she prettier? What is it? Smarter? I have been here all this time looking after you and standing up for you, supporting you and what do I get in return?” She continued to yell.“Isabel, I have told you time and time again that nothing can ever happen between us, you are my employee and I can only see you as that. If you have a problem with my life choices you have two options: suck it up and keep it to yourself or resign,” Marcus told her.“Really? You're willing to throw

Elena was having a hectic day. She was behind on most of her work and had spent all of her shift trying to meet up, but that was hard to do seeing as all she could think about was Marcus and how he was going to show up and ask her if she still wanted to get married. Yesterday her answer was a firm yes, now she wasn't so sure what she wanted. She didn't know if it was because of the apology flowers Gavin had sent her or the fact that she did not know how to tell Emily about any of it, she couldn't just show up this evening and say, “Hey sis, remember Marcus, the guy that broke my heart and I wanted to forget all about? Well, he asked me to marry him, and I said yes, it's this weekend, by the way,”. Not to mention the fact that Emily took some tests at the hospital earlier, and they were still waiting to see if it was good news or not. "Elena, are you good?" Henry, her supervisor, asked. He was standing a few feet away from her desk, arms crossed, and a worried expression on his face

"What's wrong?" Marcus leaned in and put a comforting hand on Elena's lap."It's um— I have to take this," she hastily pushed the seat back, almost knocking it over and moving quickly to the restroom."Is she okay?" Derek asked, to no one in particular. "I'll go check on her," Emily said and stood up. Marcus wanted to ask if it was okay if he went after her instead, but he decided that whatever Elena was going through, her sister was the most comforting person she could have around at that point."I'll be back in a bit," Emily said and then went after her sister. When she got to the restroom, Elena was on the phone sobbing. "Yes, I understand," she said between sobs, "Thanks for giving me the news; I'll relay it to Emily as soon as possible and take the necessary steps. Have a good night, Dr. George." "Why did you pick up his call?" Emily asked, annoyance in her tone."Emily—" Elena gasped. She quickly wiped her tears. "I...""Everything was going great. My limp is gone. I have an

"What is going on?" Derek asked as he walked into the kitchen; his expression then mirrored Emily's, mouth agape and eyes wide."Marcus was just, um..." Elena was stuck; there was nothing she could say to salvage this."Yeah, I was..." Marcus trailed off, too, but he got on his feet quickly. "I was just teasing Elena; I wasn't actually proposing." He lied."Then what's that in your hand?" Emily pointed to the small velvet box in his left hand, but he quickly hid it behind him."Nothing," "Was that why your assistant showed up while we were waiting outside the restaurant?" Derek asked."No, no, it's nothing. I wasn't proposing, okay?" Marcus tried to brush it off."It kind of looked like it." Emily pointed out. "Well, that's not what it was, okay?" Marcus said, his tone getting a bit cold. He hadn't thought any of this through, and now he was facing the consequences.Elena put a comforting hand on his back, and he let out a shaky breath... That was why. Whenever he was around this la

Elena had forgotten what kissing Marcus was like. This was a great refresher.He pulled her close, one hand on her waist and the other, cupping her cheek, and he kissed her like nothing or no one else mattered, like what they had was real. That this wasn't a proposal arranged to make her feel better about marrying him for the benefits. Like he loved her.For a moment, she let herself believe it, she let herself go in his arms, and she let herself love him back with everything she had."I missed you," he whispered between kisses, and she wanted to melt into his arms. This man could rid her of her senses by just saying three words if only he knew the control he had over her."I missed you too," "Do you want to—" she was about to interrupt him and scream yes to whatever it was he was about to say, but his ringtone beat him to it.He stopped kissing her and groaned, "Why now?" He muttered."Do you have to take it?" She asked."It could be something important. I'm still trying to close of
