Emma Watson "Me..." I had asked. The room was dead silent, with everyone waiting for Alex to speak. "There's a note on it," he stated. "Read it," Rayian said, munching on his food. Alex hesitated a bit after opening the letter, his face twitching as he went through its contents. "Can't you read?" Rayian asked. I was in the middle of all this. I wasn't expecting anything from anyone, at least not anytime soon. "Abel, take it from him." Rayian commanded.Abel snatched the letter from Alex and glanced through it. He froze too. "What does it say, Abel?" "Sir, it reads here that... 'Sorry about last night, sweet... sweetheart.'" His voice wavered slightly at the last word. I could already suspect who sent the letter. "Is that all?" Rayian asked. Abel shook his head in dismissal, a gesture I knew Rayian couldn't see. "'As you saw last night, your husband is the aggressive one, not me...'" "That's the same thing he did to Beni..." "Stop," Rayian snapped when th

033Emma WatsonMy face was as peachy as peaches, my skin still hurting from the kiss. My lips had dried up as if he had inflicted his cold nature upon them. The fact that he kept calling me his wife all through... But then, the words he whispered to me broke the bubble of any stupid feelings that was growing. " _I am going to clean up your mess,"_ he smiled after pulling out of the hug. Mom and Lena were both excited as they heard him mention my car. They were threatening to scream but composed themselves until Rayian was out of sight. "Did I just hear him say car?" Lena smiled as she pulled my arm into hers. I nodded in response, reciprocating her smile. "My daughter is lucky," my mom shouted. "No, Mom, I am the lucky one," I let go of Lena's hands as I drew closer to her. "We both are," Lena smiled as she joined us. Eliana smiled as she took the hands of both her daughters. "As much as I love to see this and would love to have you here a while, it's sad to announ

Chapter 35A Text, A Threat, A Temptation Emma Watson I made a quick stop at the grocery store, picking up the herbs I needed for Rayian. The idea had struck me suddenly—back in school, I had learned about medicinal herbs, and I was desperate for anything that might help him. Maybe this would work. Maybe this would make him forgive me faster—for everything. For the way I had talked down to him, for all the ways I had wronged him, for the way he had risked himself to save me from a nightmare I never wanted to remember. The thought weighed on me as I paid the cashier, my hands trembling slightly when I took the change. I just hope this works."Are you done, ma'am?" Alex, my driver, asked patiently. "Yes, just a minute," I murmured, forcing myself to focus. ...By the time we arrived home, my determination had solidified. I rushed into the kitchen, placing the herbs on the counter with a quiet exhale. Lucy and Mira were already there, watching me curiously as I began preparing th

Lena Watson Rayian's younger brother had arrived, his presence cheerful yet calculated. But I wasn’t fooled—there was an ulterior motive behind his sudden visit. He had made it clear that he was willing to help us, but in return, he wanted something. What could he possibly want? I intended to use this sour advantage to my benefit. As I locked the door behind him, my gaze lingered on his reflection in the window. He was undeniably handsome, but not as breathtaking as Rayian. Rayian. How had I not noticed it sooner? Rayian was the man from the bar. The realization sent a ripple of unease through me. If he put the pieces together, would he tell Emma? Emma. I clenched my fists. She always got the best of everything—love, admiration, a life that should have been mine. But not this time. I wouldn’t let her have him. ...I was so lost in my thoughts that I barely registered my mother’s voice. "Mom, are you okay?" I asked, snapping back to reality. "Yes, Mom, I'm fine," I q

Author's POV Lena stormed into the room, tossing her designer bag onto the couch with a frustrated huff. Her heels clicked sharply against the hardwood floor as she paced, hands clenched into fists. Her mother, seated in the plush armchair with a cup of tea, raised an eyebrow. "What happened, Lena?" Lena turned to face her, eyes blazing with anger. "I have never been more disappointed in my life." Her mother sighed, setting the teacup down. "Why? What happened this time?" Lena let out a bitter taste laugh. "Can you believe Rayian kicked me out of his house?" Her mother’s face tightened. "What were you doing there in the first place?" Lena rolled her eyes, exasperated. "What do you think? I was trying to get closer to Emma so she could help me get a job at his company. But guess what? Rayian outright refused. And do you know what he said?" She crossed her arms, mimicking his deep voice. "'No! We have no job openings...' What the hell does that even mean?" Her mother exha
