The Accidental Wife (Emily and Julian)

I should have known that they weren't going to leave me alone. Logically, we no longer had any connections, but when it came teis

nothing made sense. They lacked logic. the Harolds

When Maya called me two days ago, she told me that Jeffrey contacted her, telling her that he wanted to get in contact with me. Maya knew better than to give him my number. She knew quite well that I didn't want anything to do with the Harolds. After taking his number from her, I made my personal assistant call him and give him an appointment.

I knew why he didn't try to come to my office and opted to call Maya, Simply, the man was scared that I might humiliate him and that was something his ego could never recover from. He wanted to make sure first that I was going to treat him with respect. He was stupid though, because there was no guarantee that I might be cordial with somebody like him. Not when he had failed to show me compassion and love when I needed him the most.

"I wish I could ask to what I owe the pleasure of this visit, but I believe you're smart enough to find out on your own that I find no pleasure in seeing you." I spoke, resting my back against my chair as I sat behind my desk. "You're my daughter. I should have the right to see you" I found myself laughing upon hearing what he had just said. The audacity of that man.

"Daughter? Are you for real?" I tapped my fingers on my desk.

"Yes! I'm your father! Why the hell was he getting angry! He didn't have the right to get angry. I was the one who was supposed to him. That man had disappointed me throughout every single step I had taken in my life. to show a

"No, you're not. You're nothing to me! I only agreed to meet you to hear the nonsense you had to say, but I have no obligation towards you." I wanted him to understand that he was nothing to me.

"Yes.

1. s. you do! Your husband destroyed me because of your little stunt! You should pay me back what he made me loser" he dared to yell at me. I wanted to do nothing but smash his head against the wall.

"First of all, julian is my ex-husband and I didn't ask him to do anything, so you might want to sort out your problems with him, not me." My voice got a little louder. "As for my little stunt, it was the only thing I could do to fix the image that your dear step- daughter ruined. Do I need to remind you of what she had done to me!".

"You could have kept it a secret! Because of you, I lost everything," he snapped. His face was getting red.

"You lost everything? Do you mean the company you stole?" I smirked, staring at him. Realization hit him. Did he think that Julian was going to keep me in the dark? "How could you steal the company of your own daughter?" I spat. "What kind of a man are you?" "So what if I wanted to make myself rich! I used to provide you with everything you needed!" I didn't understand how brazen-faced that man was,

"Provided me with what I needed! You spent my money on your wife and her daughter! You gave them everything on a silver platter and made me work for everything I wanted even when it was my right in the first place!"

"It made you stronger. You should thank me!" I wanted to punch him in the face.

"I didn't need to be stronger! I needed to have a father in my life! I needed to feel loved!" It took a lot of effort to prevent myself from screaming at him. "What did I ever do to you to make you hate me that much!"

"I never wanted a child from your mother. She trapped me into that marriage by getting pregnant with you. I didn't want a child at that time."

"But it was easy for you to love, Fiona?" I couldn't understand his logic.

"By the time I met Maggie, I was ready to be a father and I couldn't find it in my heart to love you enough when you were from the woman I only married for money How the hell was it easy for him to tell me that!

"Get the hell out of here. I never want to see your face ever again." I wasn't going to cry in front of him. He was still there, not moving a muscle. "If you don't get out now, I'm going to get the security to throw you out," "That made him move.

Once he left my office, I broke down in tears. He only married Mum for her money and couldn't love me because I was simply her daughter and he didn't want to have a child with her. It was easy for him to love

Fiona because she wasn't my mum's daughter. It was easy for him to provide her with everything he had taken away from me.

I didn't know for how long I kept crying, but I was very detached from the world around me that I didn't feel Matthew walking in

"What happened, baby?" he asked me, wrapping me in his arms. For some reason, I didn't want to tell him. I wanted to keep what happened today

to myself. Matt was an amazing partner, but I wasn't comfortable enough to make him see the reason behind my vulnerability.

"I just met my father and it wasn't a pleasant meeting. I mumbled, not wanting to tell him anything else.

Is there anything I can do to make you feel better?" he w

wondered, caressing my hair.

11.00 AM

"Can you just take me home?" I whispered, looking at him.

He nodded and helped me up to my feet

He took me to my home and I did my best to look fine in front of Rosie since I didn't want to worry her.

When we went to my room, he ran a hot bath for me to make me relax. Matthew was fantastic in every possible way. He was the partner every girl could ever wish for and that made my guilt intensify. I felt that I wasn't giving him the love he deserved. When I got out of the shower and made my way downstairs, I found him playing with Rosie on the x-

box. She was smiling and laughing, enjoying her time with him. I was scared that I might be confusing her. I didn't want her to think that I had two men in my life. I wanted to explain to her that there was a difference between my relationship with Matt and what I had with I made my way towards them and sat down beside Matt, Instantly, he wrapped his arm around my waist and kissed my temple, making me smile.

"Are you better now?" I nodded at his question and rested my head on his shoulder. I wasn't better, I was far from being okay, but I didn't want to answer any questions, I didn't want to pour my heart out to anybody

night, I slept in Matthew's arms and for some reason, I felt like I didn't

belong. There was a barrier between the two of us and I couldn't understand what was wrong with me. As I closed my eyes, I hoped that I was only paranoid and nothing was wrong with my relationship with Matt I silently prayed that I was still cautious and nothing more w
