Betrayed by Husband Divorced when Pregnant (Kelly and Pierce) novel Chapter 203

Chapter 203: Chapter 203 Special Chapter Part 1

Emily’s POV

“I have feelings for you, Emily. And no matter how hard I tried to resist it, I just couldn’t. The feelings were so strong. This love is consuming me...”

I sucked my breath and abruptly sat on the bed as I panted really hard. My chest was moving up and down rapidly and my heart’s pounding inside my chest. I feel like it will pop out anytime and it’s...it’s too much for me.

I had a dream. The same dream I always had whenever I sleep peacefully. It’s as if the person in my dream was the reason for the peace that I have found. I don’t know...but just like what I always feel when he’s around. I feel safe and...at pace.

It was Matt Foster again. Contradicting what I believed. It’s been six months since I decided to leave for abroad. I was confused. After the day I kissed Matt in the cafeteria of the hospital where he’s working, I started avoiding him. I’m scared and...I admit it was a stupid move. I left the person I like–love, I’d say. But...the fear in my heart was too much.

Matt Foster was part of my past. He was my lover. I have already acknowledged that but without my memories, I can’t just rely on my feelings. I can’t just believe what my heart is saying. So I ran away. I ran away and hid from him.

“Emily, it’s your turn.”

I nodded at the staff and took a deep breath while staring at the mirror in front of me. For six months, I tried living a new life. I was scouted by someone who’s become my manager now. He gave me a job and I’m now a model.

I ran away from Matt, so being a model is really ridiculous. For someone who’s hiding, being popular is the last thing one should do. But I want to try living a life like this. This is what I’m comfortable with.

I went out of the dressing room, wearing summer attire. A red seductive two piece. I was offered to endorse a newly introduced alcohol and I accepted it since it’s a big project and I liked the taste of the alcohol.

“Emily’s here!”

I walked barefooted on the soft sand of the beach. I was wearing sunglasses and I covered my two piece with a thin robe.

“Where is the male model?” The director asked with an annoyed face.

I roamed my eyes around and combed my hair using my fingers. I guess my partner, Jason, is missing again. He has already missed two scheduled photoshoots for two different products. Now he’s missing again.

“Emily, you’re friends with Jason. Where is he?”

I shrugged my shoulders and sat on the sun lounger beside the director who asked me. “I don’t know. He didn’t say anything.”

I know something, actually. He’s out of town with his...boyfriend. Jason is gay and he knows that the people in the industry will judge him for what he is so he’s trying so hard to hide it to the point that he’s unknowingly neglecting his job.

“Goddamn it!” The strict female director cursed out loud. “Find me another male model! I’m canceling my contract with Jason. Damn that rude!”

I just sighed and lay on the sun lounger, waiting as the staff went into chaos trying to find another model to ease the anger of the strict director.

“Director! I found one!”

“Brief me about his background.”

“Uh...he’s a newbie—”

“Newbie?” The director growled and I just shook my head. “You’re giving me a newbie model? What product did he endorse before, huh?”

“T-This will be his first—”

“FIND ME ANOTHER ONE! I WANT SOMEONE WHO’S FAMOUS LIKE EMILY!”

“D-Director it could be a new strategy. We can hire a new face to model our—”
