"You are very handsome, I only wish to get married to you." "Oh....really, do you think that you meet all the qualifications that I want in my woman?" He asked and then looked her all over from her head to her toes. The guy didn't even blink his cold eyes as he scanned her body and she started panicking that he would reject her. Emily Meets Billionaire Richard Weller in the Bar and they get married the following day. In their journey to discover each other they face several challenges. Emily later realizes that her heart beats only for him despite the circumstances under which they met.
Emily breathed a sigh of relief as she stepped on the elevator of the tallest sky scrapper in town. Finally her adopted family had allowed her to work in the company.
Davis group of companies was one of the most famous real estate companies in town and it is also the most sought after in the city. With Billions of money trading in the stock exchange they were considered one of the richest families around.
Matt Davis was the president of the company and it was being managed by Ruth Davis.
Emily was going to be the secretary of Ruth Davis whom she knew never liked her from the day she was brought from the orphanage. Ruth never gave her any motherly love, all her attention was focused on her biological daughter whom she gave birth to a year after she was adopted.
In her heart, Emily knew that she agreed to let her work in the company in order to make her life miserable. But she was going to be patient and save as much money as possible so that she can be independent and live her own life.
"Why are you late?" Ruth asked in a stern and disgusted voice
"The traffic was slow and I couldn't get here on time."
The truth is that she woke up early and ran to the bus station to take the usual bus to the office but she was told by other passengers that the bus was having a mechanical issues so it delayed for another 30 minutes.
Since she was short on cash and it was her first day at work she had to wait patiently knowing that when she reaches the office she will not avoid the wrath of Ruth.
She couldn't help but tremble with the thought of the terrible things that she had done to her in the past. It was still fresh in her mind and gave her nightmares every single day.
"I don't like inefficient and lazy people, if you dare mess up in my company I will have no option but to fire you right away."
"Yes I understand"
"Come on get out of my sight. Look at the cheap dress you are wearing. This girl will drive me crazy one day."
Emily slowly turned around and left to go back to her office. She felt warm tears form on her eyes but she had to be strong. She was not going to show any weakness in front of the heartless woman.
But it was hard for her to get employment in other companies as she had no connections and the only option she has right now was to endure all the pain she was going to pass through for the hope of a better future.
As if it wasn't enough humiliation for the day, she bumped in to Nina Davis on her way to her office, despite her young age she had a more superior role in the company. She was the designer of the company.
"You low life, what are you doing in my company?"
"Please Nina I don't want trouble, can we put aside our grudges and be sisters for once in our lives? I am really tired of all this."
"You don't have the final say here. I don't even know why my mother allowed you to work here. But I promise you that it will not be easy for you here."
The other employees who left their chores were now keenly looking at the scene before them. Even though they pitied the new comer they didn't have any choice but to shut their mouth. Nina was the devil herself and she will not hesitate to fire anyone who comes on her way.
"What are you people staring at? Come on go back to work before I fire all of you" she shouted
Every one bowed their heads down and pretended to go back to work and immediately she left, Emily heard low voices commenting on what has just happened.
"Who is that chubby girl?" One of the workers asked
"I heard a rumor that she is the adopted daughter of the boss."
"Oh.... She is being bullied by that heartless Nina and I really pity her right now"
Emily heard all the comments but she assumed them and continued to focus on her work, she didn't want any trouble the only thing to do was to shut up and pretend.
At the end of the day, Emily had only managed to make one friend. The rest of the employees only looked down upon her and didn't want to associate themselves with her.
Mira was not a very social girl but she kind of liked Emily. She wanted to protect her from all those people who wanted to hurt her and so she vowed to be her friend even if everyone else disapproved.
"Emily, let us walk to the bus stop together"
"You really don't mind? She asked." I have noticed that others don't want to associate themselves with me. Don't you think you will be in a lot of trouble?"
"They can go to hell for all I care what matters is that I like you and nobody is going to change that"
"For the first time in the whole day Emily managed to smile and felt all the burden on her shoulders loosens. Despite all the day challenges she had gained one good friend."
"This is where we part our ways but remembers I am your friend, count on me for whatever you need from now on wards."
"Thank you"
She gave Emily a peck on the cheeks and left.
When she opened the front door of the house, she heard voices chatting in the living room. All the voices were all familiar, but one voice particularly caught her interest. It was none other than her longtime boyfriend Toby Roberts.
She couldn't help but move closer and what she saw broke her heart in to tiny pieces. He was hugging and kissing Nina Davis. This was the last thing she expected from him. She loved him and was so hopeful for the future they were going to have together.
Tears that she had been holding for the whole day now flowed freely on her face as she asked in a shaking voice.
"How could you Nina? I have left everything for you but you had to mess up with the only thing that was important to me. It wasn't enough that you have the love of our parents, what did I ever do to you?"
Before she could finish what she was saying, a slap landed on her face, she couldn't even remember how many time the same hand had slapped her. She touched her cheeks with her hands and tried to caress it as it was already burning with pain. But this was all, she had it up to her throat and she wasn't ready to deal with them any more
"You don't have any right to talk to my daughter like that. Have some little respect because you are the only outsider here" Matt Davis growled.
Emily lifted her head and looked at Toby with tears in her eyes, but he just ignored her and continued to put his hands on Nina's shoulder. He was acting different and she couldn't believe that yesterday he was just telling her how much he loved her
