He Will Never Give Up Emily's
POV
I stared at Kelly who's watching me while sitting in the driver seat. She looked exhausted but I can no longer see the fear that I saw in her eyes last night. I started the engine and drove away as I called someone and put an earbud on. [Hello?]
"I'm leaving her now."
[Is she okay? She's not hurt, right?]
I rolled my eyes and glanced at the side mirror once again. Kelly is now closing the door.
"She's fine. I already told you last night. She's not hurt."
I heard him sighed in relief. I just shook my head and smirked.
[You treated her well, right? I'm telling you, if you don't, I'll come after you.]
I scoffed. "Come on! You think I'm that heartless? She was so scared last night. If you saw her face while running away from that bastard, you'd pity her."
Just make sure that she's safe. I won't forgive you if Carver found her.]
"Yeah...yeah! Hey! How about my car? I just bought that recently."
[Find it in the river.]
My eyes widened in shock. "What the hell?"
[I'm hanging up now.]
"Wait! What river? Where is it? Hey!"
I gritted my teeth and slammed my balled fists on the steering wheel. Bastard! My car! Oh my God!
I kept
t on cursing him inside my head while driving with a heavy heart. Damn it!
I drove the whole day and when I got home, I went straight to the kitchen to drink some water when one of the maids approached me.
"Miss Emily, your father wants to see you in his office."
I shrugged lazily and went to my dad's office. I pushed the double door and entered without thinking when I saw a familiar man sitting on the couch with my dad. My lips parted in shock.
Dad and him were sitting on the couch across from each other and they were talking until I barged in unannounced.
"Emily, where have you been?" Dad asked strictly.
I swallowed hard as I looked him in the eyes and he looked back coldly. I kept my straight face. I will not give him a reason to doubt me. He will never know that I was the one who helped Kelly escape. 1 walked towards them and sat on the couch comfortably. I smirked at Klay as -crossed my legs, showing
my exposed skin.
"To whom do I owe this visit, honey? Did you miss me?
He W Never Live Up
He clenched his jaws. His eyes were sharp and deadly but he can no longer scare me. I've seen the worst in him, I'm not scared anymore.
"I'm asking you, Emily. Where have you been?"
I looked at my dad and smirked. "I'm trying to find a man who can satisfy my needs because someone doesn't want to do that for me."
"Watch your mouth, you brat!" Dad growled at me while eyeing me sharply.
I licked my bottom lip and looked at Klay seductively. "Hmm. You're silent. Cat got your tongue?"
Dad cleared his throat. "Shut up, Emily. Sorry for her rude behavior, Klay. She's just playful because she's single. But I can assure you that once you get married she'll be a very obedient wife."
My forehead creased as I turned to dad, shocked. "Marry? What are you talking about, dad?"
"You will marry him, Emily. I don't like seeing you fooling around and I chose Klay as your husband."
"What?"
"I know what you have been doing, Emily! You're rebelling against me again and the only way to stop you is to marry you off to someone I trust."
I laughed like crazy inside my head. He trust him? He trusts the man who has the same color of soul as him. Dark.
"What made you think I'll agree to marry him, dad?"
Dad slammed his fists on the coffee table. It broke and created a loud noise. I looked at him and found him throwing me sharp glares. He doesn't want someone opposing him. He doesn't want someone embarrassing him. He's a self-centered man just like Klay and I loathe him from the very first time he intervened with my personal life.
"I'm doing you a favor, Emily. I'm trying to fix your messy life by marrying you off to someone respectable and powerful. I don't want any weak, dumb and low profile douchebag for you so I'm choosing the perfect man. You will marry him or you'll face my wrath for the rest of your life."
I pressed my lips together as I looked at him, resentful, I don't even have a choice to choose who to love and what's best for myself. He sees me as his valuable possession. He's just using me to broaden his connection and strengthen his power. Unfortunately for him, the man he's trusting is beyond evil. He's cunning and will never let anyone get higher than him.
I stared at Klay's emotionless eyes. I know what he's planning. He's trying to use my father to find Kelly. He won't let her go easily and that's why I brought Kelly to a place no one knows except me. I didn't tell anyone, even my dad, that I have a house in his country. A house in a remote area that they would never think belongs to me.
"Tomorrow I will announce your upcoming wedding. This will strengthen our authority over the country, Klay. The merging of our clan will bring fear to other mafia organizations. I will be more powerful and my authority will spread to your country and the same goes for you."
I saw how Klay's lips curved into a devilish smirk. I knew that was his plan all along but I won't let him use me like how he wanted.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
