All Chapters of Owned By My Best Friend's Father: Chapter 301 - Chapter 310

Emily's POV Sitting in the car, I stared through the windshield as Jeremy and my dad walked into the jeweler's shop. Something had been off with Jeremy lately. He had become extra sneaky, and whenever I asked him what was going on, he always found a way to get around my questions without actually giving me a proper answer. At first, I had tried to ignore it because I trusted him. But lately, the feeling that he was hiding something from me had become impossible to shake. I watched the glass doors close behind them and sighed, leaning back against my seat. "You should trust him more," I muttered to myself. "See? He didn't lie. He really was meeting your dad." I tried to convince myself that I was being paranoid, but something still didn't feel right. Why had Jeremy suddenly become so secretive? Why did he keep checking his phone whenever I walked into the room? And why had he looked like he was about to have a heart attack when I asked where he was going this morning? I stared a

ELRIC'S POV Hiding behind some trees, I watched as the car pulled away. Vivienne stood by the door, waving them goodbye before finally turning toward her car in the driveway. The moment they were gone, I stepped out from behind the trees and walked toward her waiting until I was close enough before tapping her shoulder. “Ahhh!” she screamed, jumping around with one hand pressed against her chest. I immediately burst out laughing. She spun around and glared at me. “Elric!” “I’m sorry,” I said, still laughing. “No, you’re not.” “Okay, maybe I’m not.” She shook her head, trying not to smile. “You almost gave me a heart attack.” “I didn’t know you were that easy to scare.” “I wasn’t scared until some idiot decided to sneak up behind me.” I smiled and pulled the bouquet I had been hiding behind my back. “These are for you.” She looked down at the flowers before taking them from me. “Elric…” “I know I probably should have come through the front door like a normal person, but I wa

LEAH'S POV “Damien, didn't I tell you unmarried couples don't share a room in my house? I hope you have desecrated…” “We haven't done anything, Nona,” Damien said with a laugh cutting her off before she could finish. Nona looked between the two of us before giving Damien a suspicious look. “Good. Because I have cameras all over this house.” I immediately scanned the room looking around for cameras “Wait, seriously?” Damien burst out laughing. I turned to him with a frown.“You think that's funny?” “You should see your face.” “I don't like the sound of cameras being everywhere.” Nona smiled as she picked up her bag. “You have nothing to worry about, Leah. I'm glad you're here, but it's late and I'm tired. We can have dinner and talk properly tomorrow.” She started toward the stairs before turning around. “There's one more thing. Damien and Jeremy will share a room while Emily and Leah will share another.” “What Nona? We are eighteen-year-olds,” Damien complained “My house m

NONA'S POV I took the ring from Leah and headed into the dining room, leaving her standing there with that confused look on her face. I knew she probably thought I was being cruel, especially after I had just taken her engagement ring without giving her any explanation, but there was a reason for what I had done. Before I could put the dishes on the table, Emily came down the stairs hand in hand with the young man who had come along with them. I still hadn't quite caught his name last night. “Hey, Nona!” Emily called as she ran down the stairs and wrapped her arms around me. “Hey, get away from me before you make me drop the food, and good morning to you too,” I said, laughing as I carefully moved the plates away from her. She released me and grinned. “Good morning.” “Good morning, troublemaker.” She laughed before turning toward the kitchen. Leah and Damien soon came out, with Leah carrying the pancakes while Damien followed behind her, looking at her like she had hung the mo

Emily POV I kept pacing back and forth in my room. Nona could be a little intense at times, and I hoped Jeremy could handle her. After what felt like an eternity, I finally headed downstairs. I couldn't just sit in my room wondering what Nona was saying to him. I knew how protective she could be, especially when it came to me, and I didn't want her scaring Jeremy away before he even had a chance to get to know everyone properly. I ran down the stairs, taking two at a time but when I reached the living room, I saw Nona, Dad, and Jeremy huddled together around the coffee table, looking at something. “What are you guys looking at?” I called from behind them. Jeremy jumped and quickly turned around. “Oh, Emily. I didn't hear you coming down.” “Yeah, I just wanted to check on you and Nona. I guess I had no reason to worry.” “Worry?” Jeremy repeated, looking at me. “Yes. Nona can be a little intense sometimes and I was worried about what she might have said to you. I didn't want her
