Emily's Pov.
It was 7 pm in the night and I was sitting on the couch, watching TV again. Boring!
Ping pong! The doorbell rang.
"I'll get it!" The maid, Carry shouted before I could've got up.
Turning my focus back to the TV, I watched as the guy (in the movie) abduct the woman's child. I was watching Law and Order (SVU)
"Oh No!" I yelled out, throwing my hands in the air.
"Madam, there is some guest outside for you," She said to me and I nodded before letting her leave.
Guests?
I didn't know I was having guests over...
Confused at who it could be, I walked towards the door and pulled it open. My eyes widen as my mouth dropped to the ground surprised at who it was.
"Surprise!" Dad said and push me aside while mom and Vanessa followed behind.
"What do you guys want?" I asked and they totally ignore me. I locked the door and followed them to the living room.
"This house would've been mine if I was married to him instead of you!" Vanessa said while looking around. Her voice was full of jealousy.
"What do you guys want?!" I repeated but shouted so they could hear me.
"Don't you dare raise your voice at me!" dad said with little anger dripping in his voice and I rolled my eyes at him.
"Get me some juice!" I shot my head to Vanessa and saw her yelling at Carry. The poor girl nodded her head obediently and ran off. Vanessa smirk at herself before taking a seat on the couch.
"This is not your house Vanessa. Don't you dare order my maids around!" I said to her and the smirk disappeared on her face.
"Daddy! Did you hear what Emily said to me?" She faked cried to dad and he growled at me.
"How dare you talk to her like that!?" He yelled at me and I rolled my eyes at him.
"And how dare you enter this house without my permission?" I shot back at him and he growls again at me.
"You.....never raise your voice at me! Do you hear me?!" He said sternly and I laugh at him.
"So, you think you can come into a house that doesn't even belong to you and boss me around?" I asked with a cold expression on my face.
"And you! Get you ass up from this couch! I didn't allow you to sit!" I yelled at Vanessa and she flinched.
"So, because you're married to a rich and powerful man, you think you are above us?! I hope you remember, we are still your parents!" Mom said in a serious voice to me and I let out a cold chuckle.
Oh really?
"And I hope you guys remember my surname is not Jones anymore" I shot back and saw the looks on their faces.
They looked completely shocked and I couldn't hold in my laughter.
"Here's your Juice madam" the maid, Carry, came back and offer to Vanessa.
I quickly took the cup from Carry and threw it at Vanessa. "Now leave!" I said and saw dad boiling In anger while Vanessa faked cry.
"You're gonna pay for this!" Dad said and grabbed me by my throat.
"Let go of me you bastard!" I yelled out and tried to kick him but failed.
His grip tightens causing me to gasp for air. "I'm gonna kill you," he said in full anger.
"I hope you rot in hell you--" I was cut off by a loud punch across my face that sting.
Groaning, I looked up towards him. "You better learn how to respect us or you'll die in our hands," he said and I laughed at him.
"I'm don't give a dam! You can take your shitty ass selves away from me you b---"
"Shut up!" Dad cut me off and land a punch in my stomach.
Not again!
The wound from my previous injury on my stomach wasn't healed fully and now it hurts one thousand times more.
He let go of my throat and I fell to the ground gasping for air. "I'm warning you! Divorce him or you'll die in my hands" Dad said and walk towards the door.
"If you're smart, you'll make the right choice," mom said to me and followed dad while Vanessa smirked at me before following them out.
"Madam are you okay?" Carry asked as she tried to help me up. "No, it's okay. I'm fine." I said to her and struggled to get up on my own.
"I'll call master," she said and got up but I grabbed her hands before she could leave the living room.
"No please don't," I said to her and she looked at me confused. "Why?"
"I don't want to bother him. Please don't call him" I begged and she hesitates before she sighs.
"Okay. Let me help you up" She offered and helped me up to my feet. I thank her and walked up the stairs into the bedroom.
Walking into the bathroom I showered, slipped on my pajamas and lay in the uncomfortable couch.
And my mind slips off to the bad memories again.
"Where's Emily?!" Dad shouted.
"She's in here!" Vanessa said and dad came storming into the living room.
Grabbing my throat, he yelled angrily in my face "Where is your mom's jewelry?!!!!"
"What jewelry?" I asked in between my breath.
"The necklace I brought for her!" He replied and I shook my head.
"I...I don't--I don't know" I said trying to breathe.
"You lying bitch! Speak the truth!" He cussed at me.
"I don't know. I swear! I never touch any of her jewelry!" I said honestly. His grip tightens around my neck causing me to gasp for air like a fish.
"Let go honey or you're gonna kill her" I heard mom shout and dad let go of my neck a few seconds later.
Falling to the floor, I place my hands on my chest and gasp for all the air I could get.
"I don't want to see your face when I'm back this afternoon. Leave this house!" He yelled at me and left.
Mom went after dad leaving Vanessa and me alone. "Bye bitch!" She said and chuckled at me before leaving.
...
Xavier's Pov.
As I enter the meeting room, I sat down and everyone immediately shut their mouth and acknowledge my presence.
I had just finished a meeting with some businessmen and was extremely tired.
"Begin!" I said to one of my employees.
They were presenting a commercial on one of my upcoming successful products.
"B-but Mr. S-Stephano my partner isn't here as---"
"You're fired! Next!" I said and the men in the room expression changed to a shocking state.
I don't play and I don't especially have time for their games
"What! N-no you can't--''
"Leave or I'll make sure you don't get another job in this country and tell your partner I said I don't want to see his face again or else..." I threatened him and watched as fear wash over his face.
"Y-yes Sir" he stammered and ran out of my office.
"Next"
"Well, today I-i'm gonna t-talk about my p-presentation. So it starts a-at a supermarket w-where a dad I-is---" he stammered at I cut him off.
"Be properly prepared for tomorrow or just don't show up if you're gonna keep doing this bullshit. Good night everyone" I dismissed them and went straight to my BMW. Clipping my seat belt in, I sped off home.
I haven't been home in two days and I don't know why but I wanted to see Emily's face.
As I pulled up in the garage, I lock my car and entered my house. Walking into the kitchen, I grabbed a bottle of water and almost jump when I saw one of my maid standing behind me. Almost.
"What are you doing up at this time?" I asked and I saw as the look of fear in her eyes.
She opened her mouth to say something but shut it again. "You have something to say to me?" I asked raising one if my brows at her.
"Yes sir"
"Then what is it?" I asked and she hesitantly spoke.
"Y-your--your.....wife--"
"What's wrong with my wife?" I asked as I felt a little afraid that something might be wrong with Emily.
I hope no one had hurt her or I'll wipe them off this earth.
"She's--she's......hurt" she responded and I felt my blood boiled in anger.
Who dare hurt my wife!
"Where is she?" I asked.
"She's in the bedroom" She replied and I sprint upstairs to my room. Opening the bedroom door, I saw a small figure sleeping on the couch.
Why is she still sleeping there?
I walked over to her, scooped her in my arms and lay her on my bed before taking my clothes out and laying next to her.
I'll make whosoever hurt her pay.
...
The next morning I was awakening by the sound of the shower. Opening my eyes, I saw an empty space next to me.
The sound of the shower could be heard turning off and out came Emily wrapped in a small white towel.
My eyes scanned her body for any marks and then our eyes met. We started at each other. She averted her eyes and grabbed her clothes before walking back into the bathroom.
She came out a few minutes later in a black t-shirt and sweat pants on.
I saw her clench her stomach and whimper as she walks by me and I looked at her suspiciously.
Emily's POV.
Why is he home? Shit! I thought he won't be here.
"Lift up your shirt" Xavier commanded me and I give him a confused look but then realized something.
Does he know?
Who told him?......Carry!!!
"I won't repeat myself, Emily," he said after I stood there frozen. I gulp and slowly lifted my shirt and he walked towards me. I watched as his eyes scanned over my bruises and his jaw clenched.
"Who did this?" He asked in a stern voice.
Should I tell him or not?
"Emily!" He growls at me and I gulp again. "Answer me and don't even think about lying"
Shit!
Taking a deep breath, I replied. "It was someone"
"Who in specific?" He asked and I gulp.
Should I tell him? If I do then he's gonna do something to my dad and then my dad is gonna get angry at me and then he's gonna hurt me more.
"Emily?" He growls angrily while looking my eyes and I shiver in fear before replying.
"It was my......dad" I finally said.
I look at him and saw his jaw clenched and his eyes were darker. It looked like he was going to kill someone.
"I knew that bastard won't leave you alone" I heard him mumbled and he stood up. He put me to sit down on the bed and grabbed a bottle of medicine from the table beside his bed and rubbed it on my stomach.
"And your face." He said while running his fingers across my cheeks.
Shit! How could I forget? I should've put medicine on it since last night.
"It's swollen. Did he do this too?" He asked and I nodded. He was silent after that and apply a bag of frozen beans to my face which was brought up by Carry.
She looked at my face and give me an apologetic look before leaving.
"Stay in bed. You need to rest" Xavier said to me and helped me in bed before leaving.
...
Here's the long chapter I promised.
Bye:)
