Hii Lovely people💓, here's the first chapter enjoy reading📖:
Emerald POV:
"Em get up you'll be late", shouted on Ana my friend, groaning.
I got more into my pillows to get away from the sun rays coming from the window.
"I'm shouting for the last time" she said and at the same time Ana started tickling me.
"Stop... Ana.... Stop...please" I couldn't stop laughing "can't ..... Breathe..." and she stopped.
"Are you ok Em?" she asked and I nodded.
I saw the clock it was already 6.40 A.M and I am running late for work. I ran to the bathroom and brushed my teeth and had a quick shower then dried and covered myself with the towel and came out. There was a white collar shirt and high waisted pants lying on the bed Ana might have chosen that for me.
Ana was with me all the time from my childhood. She saw the way my Uncle and his family treated me. Then she took me with her to her house to stay with her family. And now from last one year we are staying together in L.A away from her parents. She takes care of me like a mother, understands me like a sister. I am so blessed to have a Best friend like her.
I got dressed and paired it with black heels and applied little makeup that included just eyeliner, mascara for my rare green eyes and pink lipstick and pulled my brown hairs into a ponytail. I'm not fond of makeup.
I checked my phone there were some messages and calls from Mr. Richard to inform me about the meeting at 8.00 in the restaurant "Wine and Dine" and after meeting we will head to the office. I messaged him saying I'll be there on time.
This job means everything to me. I wanted to become independent in my life. Ana and her parents helped me a lot after my parents to complete my education. I did some part time jobs to pay my bills. But whenever I needed some financial help they were always ready to help.
I'm too much grateful to them. They treated me like their own daughter and got me everything they got for Ana as gifts. I love and respect them as my own family.
I came out of my thoughts when I saw the clock hanging on wall in front of me. It's already 7.25 I took my purse and the things i needed and made my way down. Ana was in the kitchen making breakfast it smells so good.
"Good morning Ana" I said.
"Good morning Em I have made some pancakes for breakfast come have some" she replied as she saw me.
I took the plate and quickly had my breakfast. After kissing her cheeks and saying goodbye I made my way out of the house and called for the cab.
After about 10 mins ride was standing in front of the big restaurant "Wine and Dine". I entered and made my way to the reception.
"Hello" I said.
"Hello mam how I can help you" the receptionist asked.
"I am Emerald blooms here for the meeting with Mr. Richard" I said.
"Yaa just one minute" she said.
The receptionist called a staff member and he guided me toward the place where meeting is held. The interior of the hotel was very good.
I was seeing around when I bumped into the wall and was about to fall when the arms wrapped around my waist. Wait the wall has arms I opened my eyes and saw it wasn't the wall but a man who was holding me. He has brown hairs, deep blue eyes; sharp jaw line, well-defined lips and well- build physic. He was definitely most handsome man I have ever seen. He looks like a Greek god.
I realized am still in his arms and straightened myself.
"Watch where you go Women" he rudely said and picked up his phone. There were 2 men in same black suit behind him and they were also staring at me weirdly like the man who was holding me.
My phone bussed and Mr. Richard name flashed.
"Where are you Emerald" he asked as soon as I picked the phone.
"I am coming" I replied and was about to apologize to him.
When there was loud noise hear from behind and the person stand at left behind the blue eyes man got shot and blood was oozing out from his left arm. I got scared seeing all blood on his arms and drops of it falling on the floor and screamed.
At the same time the blue eyes man took me to the corner and signaled his men and they took out their gens from their pockets. It scared the shit out of me. Everything started come back to me from my past.
I closed my eyes and covered my ears with my hands and tried to stop the sounds of gunshots but no use. My body was shaking and tears rolling down my cheek. I felt someone taking my hands and trying to calm me but my head was spinning and everything stopped.
