Chapter 31
Emily Thompson
After spending time together for more than 2 hours, we decided to call it a day. We exchanged contact with Sophia and I can say, she’s really a nice girl.
For some weird reason, I want her to end up with Sky. At least, marrying him and changing his Casanova lifestyle will be a bonus to us. That makes it 2 down and 3 more to go.
I really want all the boys to find a good woman and settle down. It’s high time they begin to act responsibly instead of sleeping around with different women every day. I wonder how they could cope with that though.
Aren’t they tired of changing women like they’re changing clothes?
“Can we have one more girl’s time before you leave for Brooklyn next tomorrow?‘ Jessy asked, facing her.
“I wish I could do that but I need to leave as soon as possible”
“Is this about Sky?” Janet asked.
“Of course, not. He’s not my spec so, why should I be bothered about him? I need to to help my Dad. I don’t know if you understand my point. He’s already old and I don’t think he will be able to handle all the work by himself”

“Of course, we do. Just take your time. You can always come back and if destiny decides to show it’s power… We might still be together before leave, you can’t say “I said, caressing her shoulder whilst smiling sweetly at her.
I don’t know why but I just feel this weird connection with her. It feels like we have known each other for a very long time before today. Just spending a few hours together and I’m already in love with her personality. She has a nice personality.
She will be a good wife to Sky and I’m ready to accept her in our group.
“We will definitely Facetime and call each other often, I promise” She said, portraying her
sweetest smile at us.
Hugging each other for the last time, everyone walked over to where their car was being parked but, I felt Janet following behind me.
I turned to look at her confusedly. She came here with Jessy in the same ear so, I don’t know why she’s following me now.
“Don’t bother to ask me questions, Emily. I need to pick up some files from Bryan’s office. So, I will be going with you! She said even before I could question her. Nodding my head and understanding her point, I unlock the car door

She entered and sat in the passenger seat. Waving at Sophia one last time, I entered my car ignited the car engine, and drove off straight to Bryan’s company.
Janet didn’t speak to me on our way to Bryan’s company and I wondered why she was like that though. Not when I thought everything was now cool between us. Though, not an awkward silence but I still don’t like the atmosphere between us. And whenever I tried to bring up a conversation, she would only give me a short answer or nod her head.
She gave me that expression that she was not in for conversation.
Finally, we arrived at my husband’s company minutes later. Parking my car properly at a side, we both hopped down from the car and walked into the building.
Bryan’s employee begins to greet me and Janet. A few ladies held this envious and jealous. look on their faces whilst some smiled at me looking so genuine.
I’m starting not to be comfortable with this kind of girl around my husband. What if, they snatched him away from me just in the same way Sonia snatched Xander away from me?– I thought and anger began to erupt in me at the mere thought of it.
Janet and I entered the elevator and a few minutes later, we arrived at Bryan’s floor but, what we saw took us by surprise.
This beautiful lady is trying to talk to Brandon. This is even more than a talk, it’s more like trying to gain his attention or something. I still don’t know yet.
The question here is, what are Brandon and the boys doing here?
I believe they ought to be in their office right?
“Brandon, give me your phone number please and I promise to let you go” I heard her say,
Widening my eyes out of shock, I turned to look at Janet and our gaze met. She also held this surprise look on her face.
I guess I’m not the only one who is surprised.
“Stop F***ing harassing me Ms. Grey. I could sue you for this” Brandon hissed, looking pissed and irritated already by her action.
What’s going on?
Is this another love story again?
I don’t know what’s going on between these two but if this involves making them husband and wife then, I’m in.
MARRY ME THEN! She yelled, making everyone standing there widen their eyes in horror
“Alice, what is serong with you! Stop embarrassing me please an elderly man looking in his

early 50’s said to her as he tried to drag her away.
“But I like him, Dad. I just want his contact, that’s all” She pout sounding desperate.
I moved closer to them and waved at the lady. “Hello? You like my brother?” I asked, smiling
at her.
“Emily? You’re Emily Samuel, right? Bryan’s wife?” She asked, roughly shoving her father’s hand away from hers and standing in front of me.
“Yes. I’m his wife and Brandon here is my brother. To tell you the truth, I’m his favorite out of his three sisters and he does whatever I ask him to do, in other words, I’m like an angel to you right now. Do you really want to marry my brother? You meant your words right?” I asked, hope glinting in my eyes as I fixed my gaze on her.
“Yes. Please help me”
“Sure! How about we start by giving you his contact? I suggest, smiling sweetly at the lady.
“Emily!” Brandon groaned, glaring at me.
“I swear Bryan, you better stop your wife before I do something crazy‘ he threatened and before I could give her the number, Bryan came to me and started to drag me away with him.
“Let go of me, Bryan! I need to give her his contact!” I yelled, struggling to get out of his grip but he’s just too stronger than me.
“You can drop your contact to Bryan’s secretary. I will definitely give you a call!” I yelled so she could hear me.
Sure, I will. Thank you Emily” She waved at me and at the same time, Bryan successfully dragged me inside his office.
“Let go of me you annoying man!” He let me go whilst I glared at him. “Why did you do that?” I hissed, taking my heels off and slumped myself on his soft couch.
“Easy there babe. Don’t ruin my couch” he joked but I glared at him instead again.
Laughing at me, he moved closer and took a sit beside me. He raised my two legs and placed. them on his lap before massaging them for me.
this man is the most caring man I’ve ever seen aside from Dad. despite being buried in work and I know he must have been tired by now yet, he kept all of that aside to satisfy me,
“Look at how swollen your legs are. I think you should stop walking in heels. It will only hurt you more he complained still massaging my leg.
I don’t have a choice. I’m short and putting on heels can only save fue among people. You ould stop complaining if I’m not I said, smiling a linle at him. “So, who was that pretty
lady that wants to wed my brother?” I asked, focusing my attention on him.
“Some business partners. We just scaled a deal a while ago and out of the blue, she took an interest in Brandon. I think your brother doesn’t like her one bit and you shouldn’t have interfered in that earlier. She looks like a spoilt brat to me” he said and I smacked his arm roughly.
“It’s not your place to judge her personality just because she openly confessed her feelings to Brandon” I said but he only shook his head and smiled instead.
“Come here. I missed you so much” he pulled me closer to his embrace and began to k*ss me passionately.
But then, the door suddenly burst open, and when I turned my head to look at who just walked in, my whole b*dy began to boil out of anger.
What the hell is going on here?!!!!
