The Accidental Wife (Emily and Julian)

Chapter 58

"Congratulations!" Maya squealed as she ran towards Emily and pulled her into a tight hug.

"Thank you!" Emily grinned as she held onto her best friend. "Literally everything is sold out! I can't believe this!" she exclaimed. She still couldn't comprehend how big her name was. Everybody dreamt of being dressed by her. "Bummer! I had dress in mind I wanted to buy,"

said as she hugged her.

"You choose anything you want, and I will make it especially for you," Emily replied. "But I already had a dress in mind that I made for you. It's not really in the collection. It's specially made for you and it has the theme of the collection." "You never fail to surprise me," Mum said, giving Emily a side hug.

"Why does Mum always get a special treatment?" Harper whined, making Emily stick her tongue out at her.

"I made one for you too, silly. Maya, you also have your special dress waiting for you"

She never failed to amaze us. She had always shown us how grateful she was for our presence in her life and made sure to pamper Mum, Harper and Maya with free dresses. Mum tried to buy a dress before, but Emily refused to accept any money from her.

"It sucks how the ladies get all the special dresses and we get nothing." Dad teased her. I knew how much my family loved her even before I fell in love with her, but I thought they would forget about her with her departure, but I was wrong. The moment she came back, I sa "Don't tell anyone, but I plan on launching a men's line soon," she replied. I made a mental note to buy all the suits and tuxedos she planned on designing.

"I got you something." Mum said, taking a small velvet box from her clutch.

"Thank you so much, but you didn't have to," Emily said, taking the box from Mum with gratitude obvious in her eyes. "Oh my God, she gushed upon seeing what's inside. I knew what Mum bought her because

she asked me to help her choose the perfect necklace for her. Emily had always been a minimalist, so I choose a simple necklace with a horizontal line of five small diamonds. Each end was held by a plain gold necklace.

"I love you so much," Emily mumbled as she gave my mum a tight hu

hug-

"And I love you too." "Mum considered Emily the daughter she never had.

"Ms. Eddings, this bouquet came for you," one of the backstage workers said as he handed her a big bouquet of flowers after she pulled away fr from

Mum's embrace.

She took it with a beautiful smile on her face and picked the card that came with it. Her smile turned into a frown and placed the card where it

once was.

"Is everything okay?" I asked her, not liking the sudden change of mood.

"It's from Matt," she replied. I knew why they broke up. It took her a while to tell me, but I was glad that she trusted me enough to reveal to me the reason behind their breakup. Surely, she made me promise her first that I wasn't going to do anything studpid and only becau Sam reached for the bouquet and placed it on a nearby table. "You don't need it. You've received better bouquets anyway." Sam managed to become one of my favorite people just by doing that

Soon, we all left to the restaurant. Emily and I decided to leave together to make people believe that we were really dating. My arm was around

her as we walked to my car. There were many paparazzi outside, so I made sure to keep her close to me because I knew how much she hated them. There were many bodyguards around, but I still felt the need to protect her.

No matter what, Emily was always going to be mine to love, care for, protect and cherish and I was going to do anything to make her see that,
