Chapter 18 How dare you slapped me!
EMMA P. O. V
“Did you wanna beat me?” I asked immediately she stood up from the chair.
“How dare you slapped me? What have I done to deserve this slap from you?” She asked fuming in anger.
“That slap is to reset your brain, because you aren’t the Brittany I grow up with, the Brittany I grow up with will never hide something from me, no matter what, so answer my question, why did you lie to me?” I asked and she cleaned her tears with the back of her hand.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t love him, I just wanna feel how big he’s” Brittany replied.
“Why did you use my phone to sent him a message?” I asked and placed my hand on my waist.
“Can we just forget about this please?” she said.
“No you need to answer my dawn question” I replied looking her in the eyes.
“I did it because I know he won’t come if I used my number” she replied.
“This isn’t the Brittany I grow up with, I’m gonna ask you this for the last time!” I said and she nod her head.
“Did you love Rowen?” I asked and she nod her head negatively immediately.
“Good, I don’t want to see you near him again, since you’ve agreed you don’t love him, and I don’t want the nonsense you did yesterday to repeat itself,” I said.
“Alright” she replied staring at her feet.
She has made it hard for me to trust her.
Show me your friend and I’ll tell you who you’re.
Yes I know I’m a bad, friend, but I can never betray my friends, I always go for what I want without lieing.
One of the things I hate in this life is lies.
I never knew Brittany is a liar.
“Emma I’m very sorry,” Brittany said and Nadia walked inside the house with her bag in her hand.
“No problem, are you ready?” I asked her.
“Sure I’m” Brittany replied. “This bag is dawn heavy where did you get all these things from?” Nadia asked.
“Rowen brought them” I replied.
“Oh my goodness! Don’t tell me he used all his salary to get you this?” Brittany asked and Nadia roll her eyes at her.
“I don’t know” I replied.
“Nadia drops the bag in the house fast, we are going for a meeting,” I said.
“Alright, Miss Maxwell,” she said and ran off. “I’m done can we go now,” Nadia said.
“I’m nervous, I wish they can give me the chance because I’ve been dying to partner with from him,” I said.
“Don’t worry, they will” Nadia replied, I look towards Brittany’s direction and found out she’s lost again.
“Britt!” I called and she jerked up immediately. “Are you okay?” I asked.
“Sure I just wanna know if you’ve forgiven me,” she said and I burst into laughter.
“Common, I don’t keep grudges, I’ve forgiven you” I replied and she smiled at me.
“Let me help you with your bag,” she said and I gave my bag to her.
“I’m glad you’re back to your senses” Nadia said and Brittany playfully glare at her.
“Let’s go, before we get late for the interview,” Brittany said.
“That’s right!” I said and we all rushed out.
“Your phone is ringing,” Brittany said and brought out my phone from my bag.
“Thanks, baby,” I said and collected the phone from her.
Mike, why’s he calling me? I click on the answer button and take it closer to my ear.
“Hey!” I said. “Emma, hope you’re good,” he said, I can guess he’s smiling right now.
“go straight to the point, why did you call?” I asked.
“I called to inform you that I’ve disclosed your location to your parents,” He said.
“what the fûck, Mike why will you do that?” I yelled.
“I only did my job” he replied and laugh hard. “Mike, did you know you’re an f00l?” I asked.
“Whatever!” He replied.
“I’ll so deal with you,” I said.
“Give me what I want and I’ll clear you from this mess,” he said.
“You only know I’m in Paris but you don’t know my location there, Paris is a very big place, you can’t find me,” I said.
“Don’t dare me!” He said and I end the call immediately.
I’m very sure he can’t find me.
“Who was that?” Brittany asked.
“Mike!” I replied. “The private investigator?” She asked.
“Yes,” I replied her. “That f00l,” she said with gritted teeth.
“He told my parents my location,” I said. “Goodness!, Let’s move out,” she said.
“Nope if I get this partnership it will go a long way for me, I’ll be the number one richest woman,” I said.
Thinking about Rowen, I don’t even think I can leave him, not after having a taste of him.
Nadia waved her hand on my face and I left out a nervous smile.
“What are you thinking about?” She asked. “Nothing special” I replied and Brittany clear her throat.
We get inside the car and I drove off immediately. I wished myself good luck.

Rowen walked inside the restaurant with a smile on his face.
“Why are you just coming?” Bryan asked and Rowen stop on his track.
“I went to meet somewhere special, can I go in now?” Rowen ask.
“You’re bitting more than you can chew Rowen,” Bryan said.
“Sack me! I’m very sure other restaurants are waiting for you to sack me, so they can employ me, and did you know how many offers I get every day? The pay is even more than yours, just get out of my way” Rowen said and pushed him away.
“He’s becoming prouder these days, I hope it’s not what I’m thinking,” Bryan said.
Rowen met Austin on his way, and Austin pretended as if he didn’t see him.
“Where did he get headphones from?” Rowen asks himself before walking to the kitchen.
“He will come around,” Rowen said.
Austin walked to the kitchen and came to pickup up a cup
“Austin!” Rowen called. Austin pretended as If he didn’t hear him, he picked up the cup he came to pick and made to walked away before Rowen stopped him.
“Can’t you greet?” Rowen asks with a smile. “Get out!” Austin said and brought out a gum from his pocket.
“What has come over you?” Rowen ask.
“Get out!” Austin said.
“I’m sorry!” Rowen said.
“Sorry for what?” Austin asked with a smirk.
“I don’t know, but I felt like I offended you,” Rowen said.
“Yes you did, you left me all to myself yesterday and you didn’t even come back early, a whole me, have you forgotten you left your wife in the house?” Austin asked.
“Who’s my wife?” Rowen ask.
“Me of course, am I not sexy enough?” Austin asked turning around.
“You’re cràzy, get out,” Rowen said with a smile. “Wait I discovered something,” Austin said with a smirk.
“What’s that?” Rowen asks immediately.
EMMA P. O. V
I watched as big business walked out of Mr. Stanley’s office angrily, I don’t need a soothsayer to tell me that he doesn’t accept to work with them, their face says it all.
“you’re the last person on his list!” Nadia said. “Yes I hope he considers me,” I said and Brittany rubbed the back of my hand.
“I know you’re nervous, believe me, you’ll get the job,” Brittany said with a smile.
“Thanks best part” I replied and she smiled at me.
“Are you Miss Maxwell?” A lady ask and I raise my head immediately before standing up.
“yes I’m Miss Maxwell” I replied with a smile. “The director wanna see you,” she said with a polite smile.
“Where’s his office?” I asked.
“The first door by your left, good luck to you ma,” she said with a smile and I waved at Brittany and Nadia before walking away.
“Good morning Mr. Stanley” I greet with a smile.
“How are you beautiful Miss Maxwell?” He asked with a smile.
“I’m not fine, I’ll be fine when you partner with me” I replied and he smiled out showing off his teeth.
“I’ll partner with you on one condition,” he said. “What’s the condition?” I replied eagerly.
“Calm down Miss Maxwell,” he said and I nod my head.
“Be my contract wife for two months!” He said and I left my mouth open in shock.
“you’re what?” I asked surprised.
