EMILIA'S POV

I and Gifford waited patiently for Julian to arrive. I took the matter so seriously because I really don't know the content of the files Theodore took, so I was anxious if it were to be a serious one that could cost me a lot.

“Julian is really taking time; why don't we go to the station at once and request a visit for Theodore?” I'm asked.

“That's not right, okay? We can't just visit the station without involving Julian. He would be really annoyed if we were to do such a thing?”

  • NEGLECTED WIFE BECAME THE MOST WANTED    Chapter 183

    EMILIA'S POVI heard the knock even before Martha, my housemaid, announced it. "Ma'am, Dr Dan is here." For a second, I simply lay on the couch, staring at the ceiling, thinking of how today's session was going to be. Every visit from him felt like a countdown of some sort. This was the only problem I knew I was dealing with alone. Julian had no idea what was going on with this part of my life. "Let him in," I mumbled under my breath when I noticed Martha was still standing there waiting for me to respond. A few minutes later, the familiar figure of Doctor Dan stepped into the living room carrying his usual leather bag. He looked exactly like he always does, neatly dressed, calm, and extremely aware of everything going on around him. He was the type of man that would make you immensely conscious of your surroundings by simply being around you. And that somehow made everything worse for me. "It's good to see you looking awake," He spoke warmly, dropping his bag on the coffee tabl

  • NEGLECTED WIFE BECAME THE MOST WANTED    Chapter 182

    JULIAN'S POVI couldn't get anything out of Theodore, and the fact that I had to report that back to Emilia was really poking at my conscience. I wanted, so desperately to get her out of this trouble, but it had become so difficult with just as much amount of effort as I put in. As I sat there watching her silently play with her fingers, I found myself asking that one question I so much despise. “When was all this going to rest? When will she live a normal life and not have to face uncertainty daily?” It wasn’t the question that worried me, it was the reality that I have no answer, whatsoever for it. I have failed to protect her. The promise I have made to her was nothing but a mere lie. “Did you get anything out of Theodore?” She questioned, when the silence between us stretched for too long. I knew she would ask. Heck, she had every right to when it was her life that was at risk. I sighed again, redying myself for the disappointment that was going to be printed all over her face

  • NEGLECTED WIFE BECAME THE MOST WANTED    CHAPTER 181

    EMILIA’S POV I stared at the note for what seemed to be like forever, rummaging through my brain while trying really hard to make sense of the situation.When was all this going to end? For how long do I have to continue moving from one crisis to another with no stability in sight? “Are you okay?” the voice of my pr manager pulled me out of my trance. I swallowed hard as I squeezed the paper into my palm before he could have a glimpse. They have sacrificed enough for me. I wouldn’t want to continue dragging them into my chaotic life. “Yeah.” I cleared my throat. “Just thinking about how everything took a turn for the better.” I tried to muster up a genuine smile on my lips but all I could manage was a grimace. He noticed the facade too, but bless his heart, chose not to comment on it. The public is mostly suggesting you press charges on the reporters for emotional distress, will you be doing that?” “What do you think?” I directed the question back at him, folding my hands across m

    Emilia’s POVI couldn’t tear my eyes off the television screen. The same clip kept playing over and over again.I was standing close to the podium. I could see my hands shaking very well and my voice breaking even though I had tried so hard to remain strong.Then I saw the moment that would remain evergreen in my head and the news clip showed me running away from the stage with tears streaming down my face.The reporters voice followers immediately that clip showed.“Businesswoman Emilia breaks down during the press conference that held today in regards of her kidnapping”.Then the clip replayed over and over again as the reporter continued talking but I wasn’t listening to her anymore.All I could think about as I watched the replay was another reminder of my dignity being washed down the drain in front of thousands of people who wanted to know what happened to me.I hugged myself tighter and did my best to stay calm even though the tears were already coming.I felt sick in my stomac

    Julian’s POV“No, this isn’t right. “What’s going on with him?” I asked loudly as I watched the medics Theodore on a stretcher and was about to wheel him out of the room.“What the hell just happened right now?” I asked, still in a state of disbelief. Nobody bothered to answer me and all I could hear was the wheels of the stretcher scraping loudly on the floor with medical team all surrounding him shouting out different instructions I couldn’t even understand.“Move”. “Go make sure the hallway is clear”. “He’s in cardiac arrest, we’re losing him”, I heard them scream and all I could do was stand there frozen in place watching as they ran around.I couldn’t stand there without moving any longer. I turned and ran after them.“Theodore, just gave me a sign”, I said loudly but he didn’t even twitch and nobody looked in my direction.They were all focused on saving his life. A medic was already starting to administer cpr as we moved down the hallway heading to the emergency room.The med

    Julian’s POVMy mind refused to slow down as I drove to the police station. The detective’s words kept repeating inside my head. For weeks we had been searching for answers.Every clue led to another question and even truth seemed to uncover another lie and now he was finally ready to speak.I tightened my grip on the steering wheel. This was the breakthrough we had all been expecting. But something didn’t feel quite right.Why had he suddenly changed his mind? A man who had fought so hard to protect his secrets, he couldn’t just wake up and decide to confess all of a sudden.Something must have changed his mind and frightened him. I just hoped it wasn’t too late. Emilia’s image flashed through my mind. I could see the tears on his face and the hopelessness in her expression and the way she looked at me right before I left.I had promised her that I would fix things for her and I intended to keep that promise to her.I parked outside the police station and hurried into the house. The

    EMILIA'S POV I blinked, then blinked again, because my brain still failed to comprehend what was right in front of me. A man pointed a gun at me. Jasper had a gun too. I heard the sound of a gunshot. I have no idea who had taken the first shot. Was it Jasper? Or had the man shot me first? For a
