LOGINJULIAN'S POV“It's obvious that this man isn't going to tell us anything; let's just let him be and go home for now. By the time he suffers in pay, he will be left with no reason but to call us back,” I said. “I don't think you know that there is a poison in that knife she used in stabbing you. The poison will work slowly, but if you speak now, there would still be time for you to live,” Gifford said. Theodore laughed. “I know you're saying this just to scare me.”“You won't believe it until it's too late,” Gifford responded. “Let's just leave; I don't think I have any space to banter words with him again,” Emilia added. “By the time we realize what is going on, your life would have been miserable, and you would be already wishing for death. There is still lots of time for you to come back, but you are still playing doubles. I just pity how your future would be,” I said and immediately left with Emilia and Gifford. “I will catch up with you guys,” I muttered. I went to the guard
EMILIA'S POV“It's about time you stop all this drama, okay? The more you struggle, the worse your wound becomes. I understand you really need to avoid this, but you are stuck with nowhere, and you aren't going to go off it despite how hard you try. There is no way out. The earlier you know it, the better for you,” Gifford said, referring to Theodore. “You are making things hard for me. How do you expect me to talk in this pain? I'm going through hell now,” Theodore shouted. “Now you are the one pleading for mercy, right? But I was the one begging you several times, but you couldn't even give me a listening ear. Numerous times I pleaded with you, but you ignored me and still continued maltreating me despite all the relationship we shared together,” I told, feeling emotional. “I understand why you were doing all of this to yourself, and I know that you really need your help. Why don't you ask for it, and it should be rendered freely to you?” Gifford said? “Yes, I need help, and the
EMILIA'S POVI watched Julian as he stood up for me, but this wasn't what I wanted. I want to speak for myself and do it my way. That was the perfect way for me to win and gather all the information I needed from him at once. “All of this act you are playing isn't going to help you. Just be reasonable, at least for once in your life; it would be more beneficial to you,” I said politely. “You haven't even told me the content of this call yet to want me to act just the way you want. I know I am a prisoner, but I still have some respect, which should be left for me. Oh, Don, you have to control me the way you want. I am not some kind of slave to you. I still deserve a lot of respect,” Theodore yelled. “You're not but an empty thing. You really didn't know you would end up like this, right?” I smiled. “Not at all. This was going to be inheriting all of your wealth,” Theodore laughed. “What I really want to understand first is how do you feel doing these things to me? I don't know whe
EMILIA'S POVAfter a few minutes of driving, we arrived at the station. I was the first person to get out of the car because I was in so much haste to meet with Theodore. “You have to calm down and take things easy, okay? Please hear me out if you rush him. I don't think you would get it in his favor, so you really have to be calm,” Julian said. “And that's what I have been constantly telling her, but she won't listen to anything I say,” Gifford added. “Okay, okay, I'm calm now. I'm just curious to know the content of the file he came to the office to take, and that's all. Don't make it as if I am not entitled to do so, please,” I yelled. “No one is denying you the right, but the fact that you are in a rush with meeting with Theodore is really giving us concern, and I don't want that to happen, okay?” Julian muttered. “He is right; you haven't seen Theodore since after your release, and seeing him now might bring back numerous memories you have in that cell, and I know for sure t
EMILIA'S POVI 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?” Gifford responded.“You're right, but at the same time, we really need his attention here. The thing is that I don't know exactly which file Theodore is holding because I realized I don't know what he would be using them for,” I said. “That's why you have to calm down; you are taking it too seriously. That's why it's affecting you. You have to calm down and know that you are truly going to get to the root of this. Fighting and staying consistent is the only thing you have to stay focused on. Yo
EMILIA'S POV“I think it's time to call Julian now; we need him to get access to Theodore at this point,” Gifford whispered. “Who on earth allowed him to enter this office, and who gave the access code?” I questioned. I was really annoyed with what I heard; I really didn't want anyone inside this office, and of all people, Theodore was the one who came inside. “Mam, I really don't know what is going on. The only time I saw him was when he came to the office and said some file of yours is required at the court, so he came and hacked the lock,” Rihanna told. “What do you mean?” Gifford asked as he drew steps closer. “When he arrived at the office after numerous questions about how the key was going to be opened, no one had the password, so he hacked the key. He said the files that he was taking would determine your release in court,” Rihanna responded, stammering. “Court? How was he even able to brainwash them like this?” I yelled. “Please calm down and continue. What happened aft
JULIAN’S POV I heard the news before everyone else. Jasper had somehow hacked into the media system long before now and would reveal information that wasn't meant to be announced, just for fun. On the quest of getting that done, he found out that Emilia had been awarded and he called to inform me
EMILIA'S POVThe news about the award spread through the building like wildfire. By the time I had actually managed to process what Theodore had said and what was written in multiple notifications, the entire building was bustling with staff, coming to knock on Theodore's office just to congratulat
JULIAN'S POV Cassandra was getting ahead of herself lately. The way she openly shows disgust and hatred toward Emilia was really frustrating. I usually find myself wondering how the heck they got here when they initially used to be best friends."Mr Julian..." I shifted my gaze to one of the arch
EMILIA'S POVAs much as there was danger lurking around me, I also had a job to do, most of the work was put to a complete halt until I was around to handle it. And those jobs, I had to see to their success, no matter how much Julian disapproved of the idea of my leaving the house. Not to talk abou
