The Kidnapped Bride

"You aren't even kidding, right?" Emily found the need to confirm once she saw that Shirley only smiled confidently.

She can easily put nonsense to make the other person fool out of her and later on deny it. 

But this time, Shirley gave her a firm nod. Just from the lady's body language, she could guess that this wasn't my bluff to create. 

It was the real secret! 

"Shawn's uncle is actually looking forward to having grandchildren! Are you joking about it?! Because I don't think he has such a wish… his children are young!" thinking about giving birth was already nauseating. 

Her figure will be disturbed and even imagining the labor pain was enough to give her goosebumps. Subconsciously, her hands traveled towards her skin to feel the hair already standing.

"I will never joke on this serious corner. Shawn told me this himself." Shirley's eyes swept across the lady.

In her accordance, this was the most effective way to get the things done and to have their hand on, especially to kick Jennifer.

"You should also try to go ahead and.. you know, sleep with Javier as soon as possible." Shirley's suggestion met with puzzle gazes from Emily who was already feeling conflicted.

In her mind, she knew that this would be the best solution to everything but… even after what she did a few nights ago? She doesn't think so.

Lack of response from Emily made Shirley slightly frown. She noted how Emily wore her face and her fingers played with themselves. 

'Is she nervous? Or feeling awkward?' These two situations only arose in her mind. It almost made her wonder if Emily was purely acting or considering her plan of action?

Unknown to her, her condition was much worse than someone could even imagine it to be. "Emily, it's alright. You don't have to feel shy.."

"It's not about being shy. Mrs. Johnson, you mentioned being pregnant..  Do you think being pregnant is normal? Out of blue?" Her question was very much valid and Shirley had to think twice.

Moreover, knowing that Shirley gave birth to Amaira without marriage as well, was she recommending the same to her?

She opened her mouth but no words came out since she herself was in turmoil. What no answerback? Was it fine to get pregnant out of wedlock and give birth?

Straightening her back, Shirley's lips turned into a straight line before answering back. "You are correct. This isn't a good thing. But you have the status as well. You are already your fiance.."

"A fiance… not a legal wife." Emily corrected her as the confusion was evident in her eyes.

She was worried, but it was hard or guess about what?

"At least you have the status…" was all that Shirley said as she let the further words be left spoken. Knowing that she was a mere secretary who ended up being Mrs. Johnsons, she had gone through her own struggles of seducing and fighting.

Her tricks were not less than anyone else's!

Emily's eyes slightly moved from their original place when she kept her hand over her tight. Her shoulders dropped down in the tension already.

"But does getting pregnant mean… Javier will marry me no matter what!?" She was uncertain due to the hatred that Javier bore for her. But Shirley gave her a sweet smile. "If he doesn't.. at least Shawn will force him to do so."

'But Javier will never accept that child and.. why will he? If the child will not be his own?' She dared not to think what could be consequences if she played any tricks and turns in this matter.

He is a cold-blooded man, who will ultimately make her a dead stone if his ears get the wind of her doing.

Knowing how much Johnson cared for their bloodline, that won't be any joke to say that she feared what she had done…

Sweat started to come on her face when she tried to bring a big fake smile. "I will... see what I can do by myself."

"Hurry. Otherwise, if Jennifer sleeps with Javier.. that will be a blunder. I don't want any other person entering into my household." Emily shook her head in agreement.

But that wasn't the end when Shirley dropped another bomb on her by her question. "Anyways, I heard some noise from your room before engagement.. were that you and Javier?"

Her eyes widened in shock. Fear started to consume her when her own heart raced at its highest peak. The rate at which her heart puffed was enough to give her the spot of a heart attack even!

"N-No… what are you even saying!" 

Her stumbling voice added to Shirley's suspicions but she took it the wrong way. 

"Oh my, there's nothing to hide from me! It's alright if you and Javier have done the deed already.."

Her forehead was filled with lines whereas Shirley's face was covered with a sweet and assuring smile. The contrast between the two was evident.

Even these things can't just bring her any kind of happiness at all.

While one had all wide smiles, Emily remained conscious and shaky due to her hands.

But Emily had her own reason to go to agree to the question. "I..I.. don't like to discuss my personal life and my sexual life."

As per her wish, Shirley dropped the topic but Emily already had the idea Shirley thought that it was she and Javier that.. at least that is what lies on the surface instead of the reality.

Until… the truth comes out in front of them and… who knows what they will do with her!

Emily remained seated at the current place, without muttering a single word. Subconsciously, her hands traveled towards her stomach to gulp the saliva present in her mouth.

'This child… will.. make me a slice of dead meat!'
