For the record, Liam doesn't have any anger issues he is just having a hard time adjusting so be patient with him. ❤️
Liam I had called her friend last night and made sure he would never meet up with Emily again. I have enough problems to deal with as it is and the least I want is having to see articles in my board meeting and Milan rejecting my offer. She even took her ring off and as much as that angered me, I let it slide. If she has lost it, I'll just buy her a new one. I have more important business to deal with right now anyway. I was sure it was handled but as I woke up, Jake was forwarding me tabloids on how my marriage was on the rocks which has led to my “wife “ going wild within a month. “Get the PR. I need all the articles down within ten minutes and hell, I’m pressing charges.” That was how my morning was ruined. I took it out on the root cause of all this mess. My so-called wife. I don’t even know what came over me last night. But I’m convinced I did it for the company. I love this company more than I let on. I mean look at me, Married to a goddamn gold digger just like “her".
Liam Jake walks into my office with a file at hand and I’m glad something will take my mind off a few things. I have to sign the deal with the Milans tomorrow or else the board will find a way to question my position and I can’t have that. It seems my marriage worked after all. Dad knew what he was doing. “I found something interesting.” He says and I roll my eyes. “Don’t you always? What did you find?” I ask, my tongue laced with sarcasm “Your pretty little wife whom you hate so much actually has so many problems. It’s a secret but apparently, your dad offered her a deal to pay her father’s medical bills if she marries you.” He begins and I grind my teeth. So she is a gold digger? But a family committed kind? Hell, what am I even thinking? “Leave it,” I respond referring to the file and I swear I see him roll his eyes before dropping it. I pick it up and there it is, all the information that was kept from me laid out. I should have looked into this before the wedding
Emily I wake up with a smile plastered on my face as I find myself in Liam’s bed. I’ve never been here before and waking up in his arms after such an intimate night brings my racing heart to a standstill. It seems "Just for tonight." was extended. The least I expected was for him to bring me to his room, especially since I don’t know where I stand. My heart beats so fast from anticipation as a bubble of hope begins to form. I pull the blankets closer to cover half my face as I stare at the most beautiful man I’ve ever laid eyes on. His eyes are closed and his eyebrows are placed perfectly even in his sleep. I fight the urge to run my hand in his thick hair for fear of waking him up. We got intimate from nowhere but I don’t regret it at all. After visiting Dad yesterday, I came straight home and took some wine because of how the conversation went. “I see. So you got married” he sighed when he gave up after pushing me to reveal how I’m paying for the bills and I panicked. I dou
Emily I’ve been waiting for Liam and me to talk but it seems he either hasn’t had the time or he just doesn’t want to. I now don’t know what to think. An idea pops up in my head and I decide to go for it. A surprise lunch visit. Maybe if I visit him, we might go somewhere and talk about us. With that resolution, I walk to the kitchen and find Joane cooking something and I smile at her, “Good morning.” She looks at me for a while before she responds, “Good morning miss.” but she doesn’t smile. I feel my current courage slowly leave me as my heart starts beating so fast I feel like I just ran a marathon of a hundred miles per hour. Joane notices how I’m standing awkwardly and her eyes soften a little, “Should I prepare your breakfast?” She asks. “No, I actually need your help with something.” I finally say after a stretch of overthinking everything. I just realized I know nothing about Liam and if Joane says no then I’ll definitely fail before I even begin because what if I make
Liam Knowing the reason why Emily had taken Dad’s proposal had softened me towards her and my whole view changed. I didn’t want it to but she somehow managed to crawl into my cold heart and began warming it little by little. I didn’t know what label to put on it so I’ve just been avoiding having this whole conversation until I’m certain with what I’m feeling. All I’ve ever known since Victoria broke my heart was rage and pain. All this was new but I wasn’t about to let her slip from me. I was afraid, but she began to prove to me that she was going to be worth all the hassle. When we met intimately, we agreed for it to just be for that night. But we continued even the next morning and we didn’t stop there. She has been making me cute breakfast and I used to kip breakfast and just get some coffee but lately, I eat it. “When did you start eating breakfast?” Jake asks and I ignore him. Partly because I don’t want to admit what I know is happening. “Are you not supposed to get me fil
Emily It’s been three days since Liam and I got intimate and I was expecting him to get back to his cold self but he had been kind enough. Not warm enough but it’s a start. We never meet eye to eye, but I have been preparing breakfast for him which he has been taking. I’m not sure if he just doesn't throw it in the bin. Joane has warmed up to me by saying one or two words and that’s a start to a positive and civil arrangement. She also helped me prepare his lunch which he never got to eat. The words from those women still linger in my head and go straight to my heart causing a stab of pain. "Oh please she is no match for Victoria" one had said. He never spoke about the day when I went to his office or even tried to explain why he couldn’t see me. I’m so pathetic that I have kept all the hurt and pain hidden inside me when I’m not even sure about what my husband thinks of me. A part of me had been dying to know but I’m not sure I was ready for the answer. Was he truly with her? A
Liam It’s been three days since Victoria walked back into my life and I must say, I have not been in my best mood. Not only did she stab herself, but she did it in my office, and with the Milan deal still pending, such news will not help us at all and the least I want is for Dad to fly back from China to come and fix my mess. So I do It. I’ve barely spoken to Emily and I think I won’t until I settle this mess that just walked into my life. I’ve already been so awful to her and right now, I don’t want to cause her any pain or worry. She is starting her exams soon and I want her to write without any stress. That is why I went and paid for her father’s medical bills in advance but it seems trouble has come anyway. The hospital is private with two extra rooms for the one at the bedside and in this case, It’s fucking me. I called her father who told me he would be back in New York the very day but three days later, I’m still babysitting. “When is your Mother coming? I’m a businessman
Emily It’s been three weeks since I left New York to bring my father for the treatment and he has been responding very well. When we just arrived, Dr. Sanderson received us and when I was told we would be taken care of, I had no idea it would be by someone so young. Well, he’s thirty but very successful in his medical field and the best Neurologist in Seattle. He has brown eyes and dark short hair. Upon arrival, I could tell that he was popular among the females but I haven’t been bothered by it. I’m married to Liam Lockhart, that alone is enough to set the world on fire. The only problem is the way my heart clenches painfully when I remember the last conversation I had before leaving. He cheated on me again and with the woman who made him so cold. I had cried for three days straight and when Aunt Melan asked, I would use Dad as an excuse but now I don’t know what will be my excuse when I’m caught crying. He didn’t even try to call me back. My sadness starts to turn into anger as
