Chapter seventy-oneEmily and Rosie returned back from the bridal shop and arranged the stuff they brought back with them. Rosie has already called an event planner to handle the whole stuff since it was getting too stressful for her. Her phone rang and she picked it up to see it was Rodrick calling. Emily smirked at her playfully as she found her way to her room already expecting the call between the two lovers to be long. “Hello babe”, Rosie voiced out. “Rosie…”He went quiet for a few seconds.“There’s a summit next week. A major one.”“If I don’t attend, I could lose the contract.”Her chest tightened. “Rodrick… what are you saying?”Another silence.“We may have to postpone the wedding.”Rosie could see her heart ripped out. “preparation has already been made..and you are just calling last minute to notify me of this”, “I am sorry”, he said over the phone. “Why can't it wait”, she was trying her best not to explode at the same time wondering if she did the right thing by

Chapter seventy-threeShe had shut down her feelings and pretended everything was fine. She had stopped picking his calls and focused on Rosie’s wedding which was going to hold tomorrow. She sighed deeply at least there was something good to rejoice over. She entered the bathroom to wash herself properly. But still the thought of Kim flowed through her mind. She hadn't treated the man well. She had refused to speak with him for days now.She finished scrubbing her body thoroughly and entered her room. She changed into her bridal dress and found her way to meet with Rosie. Rosie was smiling so widely. She could see how happy her friend was despite the disagreement she had with Rodrick a few days ago. It didn't dim her smile a bit. Emily was glad and happy for her but she soon recalled how Kim has played an active role in making sure about it. Still she didn't want anything to do with him. She needed space to process her emotions. Whatever they seemed to share in the last coupl

Chapter Seventy-fiveThe next day Emily drove her kids to school. She used her eyes to roam around the school building searching for Kim. She didn't see him. She went to his daughter's class and saw Soo-jin sitting in her seat. The young girl smiled at her as soon as she recognised her. It melted Emily's heart. She turned her back and headed to her office. The ride was peaceful and smooth in no time she was already at the office. She focused her attention on work before Helen stormed into her room to have a conversation with her. “Wow..your friend really won..congratulations…I can't believe my long time crush is taken already”, Emily smiled. “Thank you…you might have to look for another eligible bachelor to catch”, “Hmmm…Mr. Kim but he seemed to be head over heels in love with you”, A slow breath left her lips as she listened to Helen. She had thought her relationship with Kim was a private one but she was wrong. It was no longer news. “You aren't saying anything”, Helen sna

Chapter seventy-sevenEmily entered her car. She allowed herself to cry. She had been holding back for so long and didn't realise how much she has been hurting people that love her. She had taken the first step coming to his place and hearing him pour out his heart to her made her feel the pain she had made her go through. He didn't deserve the cold attitude from her. She was making him pay for sin he didn't commit. And now he has decided to choose himself. She felt hopeless. She felt her heart shattered into a million tiny pieces.Emily gripped the steering wheel as sobs wracked through her body. The sound of her own pain filled the quiet car, raw and unfiltered. For once, there was no pride to shield her, no stubborn wall to hide behind. Just regret.She had been so afraid of being hurt that she became the one inflicting the wounds.The memory of his eyes—glossy but determined—flashed in her mind."I can’t keep fighting for someone who keeps pushing me away, Emily."His voice h

Chapter Seventy-nineEmily arrived at work to meet her boss. He was back from the honeymoon phase.She couldn't deny the glow in which his face shone. “Good morning sir”,she greeted. “Good morning Emily”, he replied heading to his office She was glad he was back. The project she was handling. She gazed at it. She had poured out her heart, body and soul into it. She wanted him to be very proud of her. She entered her office and relaxed her whole body on the chair before opening her system. She was stunned to see a message from Kim “Hello beautiful..you look so stunning”, She widened her eyes in amazement. When did he get to see her this morning? She smiled sheepishly as she read it again and again. It was all she needed to get her day right. As she focused on work. She would occasionally go back to check the message. Her heart beats at different intervals. She was done with the project and sent them to Rodrick mail for scrutiny. He went through them in a couple of minu
