Chapter 22 - Chapter 21

"Why are you standing still?"

.

.

.

Emily stood there as her legs stiffened and her eyes more likely to be popped out of her eyeballs and her jaw slightly opened as the side feature of the man shone brightly under the street light...

He walked slowly with his hands shoved in his pockets, eyes trailed her bruised cheek and a blood clotted wound in her right knee and a scratch on her right ankle...

Emily slowly blinked her eyes as the man was only about an inch apart from her... 

Her breath hitched when he took his left hand from his pocket and placed his palm on her bruised cheek..  His thumb gently caressed her cheek,  his eyes not leaving hers...

Emily felt something weird happening within her.. But she could care less about it as the man gave her comfort only through his gaze..

"Are you okay? Why are you coming alone? " He asked still keeping his palm on her cheek...

Then the reality hit her that this isn't a dream but present she moved back from his touch and maintained her head down..

"Yes sir I'm good. Thank you for your concern"

He looked her with a little frown as he held his hand down and shoved back where it was placed before..

"Tomorrow we have a meeting..  Make sure to be at my home sharp at 6 in the morning don't be late. It's important for us to attend. "

He said and made his way back to his car and before opening his door he heard her mumbling under her breath..

"6? Why do I have to wake up at night.. It's my sleeping time! " She thought that he couldn't hear but in vain...by hearing her mumble Ed couldn't control his smile.

He shook his head with his precious smile and started his car and drove off...

Emily looked at his car vanishing in the dark and let out a sigh and went inside her building...

.

.

.

A black Bugatti shining under the moon light as the window slid down showing a man wearing white suit with his hair styled with a smirk looked up at the light coming from one of the apartment none other than Emily's..

"Who's gonna stay alive and who's going to be gone?  I'm curious!" Within a blink of eye the car disappeared.

.

.

.

Emily get to her bed and traced her fingers on her bruised cheek and let out a sigh thinking about the hurtful moments that took place...

soon she drifted to sleep

.

" Come on let's go now..hm.. please..." a sweet voice started whining as the girl in her red cardigan and her olive green knee length dress didn't  move away from feeding the cattle.

"June stop whining.. I'll come soon after feeding them! you go first I'll come.. i promise!"

the little stood with a cute pout looking at her pink slippers while moving her white dress from side to side.. The girl could never ignore a pretty baby feeling sad so she squat down to reach the little girl's height and caressed her soft chubby cheeks "hey.. don't be sad .. you know i hate to look at you like this ... I'll come really! but before that i have to feed them..mmm.. won't they feel hungry if i leave them like that?" the girl standing there pouting lifted her head to look at the cattle that are feeding themselves and nodded her head "do you want to wait for me or do you want to leave first?" but within the little girl replying an voice stood behind them giving his answer instead "June you leave first I'll make sure to bring her there hmm?" soon after seeing the man the little girl ran to him and the man got her tight in his embrace. the girl in her cardigan turn around to see the man interrupting their conversation "you shouldn't interrupt when we are talking you know! I'm going to complain this to our father!" but the man simply laughed at his sisters soft threaten "I'm sorry to disappoint you my sister but since you know that father wouldn't scold me it's useless to bring this topic!" the girl crossed her arms across her chest and faked an angry face to her brother at last gave up as the both laughed together.

the little girl left first to their destination and finally after taking half an hour the man rushed towards her sisters room and knocked her double door that stood majestically in the pathway of the palace covered with little carvings.. "hey sister you have to come out so that we can leave now to meet your love!!!! come on faster!!" he started banging the doors as no reply has returned..

Suddenly the door opens revealing the girl in her golden long dress with her long straight black hair with her gorgeous hazel colored eyes showing her flawless skin " i have ears you don't have to shout brother and I'm ready let's go!"

"shouting? who? me? you are the one who kept on whining like a five year old to look your man! now you are scolding me sis? I'm disappointed!!"

"I'm not scolding you i just stated the fact that your banging might even break that pretty door! don't you think so?"

"kids stop fighting lets go now or else Lord Victor might be very disappointed with us let's go!" an old man walking through the door to the exit with her silver colored royal suit

"Yes Father! " both said in unison and followed him 

Reaching the place by taking a white horse,  a brown horse and a black horse by the girl and her brother and father respectively.

They were sitting in the Royal ballroom where it was packed with many royals in their elegant wears..

"I don't see the one who you are waiting for my little sister! "

"He might be running late or talking to other royals.. Stop asking me questions!  I too don't_"

Her conversation was cutted off in the middle when a voice arises behind her back.."Can I get My Lady now Carmen? " Her eyes widened and blush creeped to her cheeks giving reddish pink color to her cheek...  " Of course she's all yours!!! "

Her eyes met the man standing with his blue Royal suite with a smile on his face.

.

.

Emily's eyes opened suddenly as the alarm went off and she was more shook that she can clearly remember each and every detail of her dream.. She wiped the sweat beads formed on her forehead..

"What is he doing in my dream? "

The phone started vibrating she stared to see the message from her boss

'Ms. Geordan be sure to be here in the next hour' and attached with the location to his home.

.

.

.

.

Emily stood before his house like an idle admiring the beauty of his house...  She snapped out to see the front door revealing the man...  None other than her boss...  He gestured her to come on and she did and waited for his next gesture...

"We will leaving in 10minutes from now on and we have to be at the boutique at 11am on the dot.  Do you have any other questions? "

"No sir"

"Good the car is ready let's go and make sure to call and confirm about our meeting with Mr. Jason"

"Huh?  I.. Uh.. Yes sir I'll..in a minute! "

.

The boutique....

Ed entered the boutique followed by his secretary...

He stopped without any notice and once again Emily bumped in her forehead...

"I told you to keep your head straight!  Didn't I?  And stopping getting hit"

She bit her upper lip and nodded her head nervously..

"Is my Husband to be here!! Ed sighed out loud to hear the most irritable voice and turned to see her face.

" Always punctual...  Let's see if you can keep this even after our wedding my Hubby! "

Crystal smirked seeing the girl who got slapped from her and she could see her still puffy cheek..  And she looked behind to see the person entering the boutique and grabbed Ed's arm turning him along with her to greet the person...

"Hey brother!! " She greeted as the person stood beside Emily...  Emily's eyes went wide to look at the person.

He let out his hand to Emily "Still we didn't introduce ourselves.  Did we? "

Emily looked at his hand and again to meet his eyes..

"Andrew William. and you?"

Emily just looked at him still shook 'THE MAN IN MY DREAM'
