CHAPTER 20(LET'S GET MARRIED)

"The past is where you learned the lesson. The future is where you apply the lesson. Don't give up in the middle."–Dale Carnegie

***********

She knew that Emma was trying to ease the mood... She looked at the girl which she just met a week ago with gratefulness and admiration in her eyes

"what's with that look Stacy... You gonna make a hole in my face " Emma said jokingly

"if you're so grateful just say thank you and stop looking at me like you wanna marry me or do you?" Emma asked

"Emma..." Stacy called

"hmmm wife" Emma teased

"you're so cool, " Stacy said with admiration

"I know right your hobby is the best. " Emma said making Stacy laugh out loud

"That's the spirit... You should laugh more" Emma said with a smile

"thank you, Emma," Stacy said wiping the remaining tears

"What are sisters for... To be honest I've grown on you Stacy... You are like the sister I never had "Emma said giving Stacy a genuine smile

They got home and Emma invited Stacy to dinner at her place... They cooked noodles and ate together

She sent the money to Stacy

"I love you Emms," Stacy said

"I love you more Stace"

"so now that you got the complete money what are you going to do" Emma asked

"I'll take 2 weeks off tomorrow, I'll make the deposit and after the surgery... I'll stay with my mum until she recovers" Stacy said

"ok during the weekend or if there is still time after work I'll come and visit so calm your nerves," Emma said

"ok... Let's go to sleep" Emma said looking at Stacy who looked anxious

"thank you for everything, Emma... You know the reason I try to stay away from people is because... All my life I've been bullied and betrayed by even my best friends so I was surprised that you asked me to be your friend and now you shocked me more by choosing to help my mum... I am so grateful thank you" Stacy said

"That's enough Stacy you're making me feel like a stranger I've told you we are friends as well as sisters so close your eyes and sleep you have a big day tomorrow," Emma said Stacy nodded

The next day

Emma and Stacy left together as usual... Stacy went straight to Mr henry's office for permission to take days off... She also explained why she wanted to take 2 weeks break and Mr Henry approved of it telling her to take care of herself as well as her mother when she came out she saw Emma waiting for her outside the office she escorted her to the parking lot and handed her car keys over to Stacy

"take this Stacy... You need it more than I do..." Emma said

"Emma are you crazy... How will you go home after work... No, you've done so much already I can't accept this " Stacy refused

"come on Stacy I can take the taxi but you need the car more than I do ok now let's say that you want to get food for your mother or you want to take your mom home after she gets better.....girl stop making unnecessary complaints and save more time and speech by accepting my goodwill, "E mma said with a smile

She took emmas hand in hers and placed the keys in her hand

"thank you so much, Emma," Stacy said and hugged Emma

"you're welcome, dear... Now go to that hospital and show those doctors that your mum has a daughter" Emma motivated

"yes, I will... " Stacy replied

"call me when you get there," Emma said as she watched Stacy get into the car

"of course, I will you don't need to tell me that will be the first thing I'll do once I get there," Stacy said as she started the car

Emma waved at the car which was driving out of the garage

She stood there until the car was out of sight.

She went back to the company and continued her work. After She finished the designs she was working on, her phone rang and it was Stacy calling to tell her that she had gotten to the hospital they talked for a few minutes and hung up... She looked at the time and it was still early so she decided to take a nap...

After a few hours, she woke up and looked at the time on her phone... It was already 2:15 pm which was 15 minutes past lunchtime "Jeez how much did I sleep...."

"I have just 5 minutes until lunchtime ends (sigh) I'll just skip lunch," she said to herself and all the choirs in her stomach began to sing as if they heard her declaration making Emma giggle she lifted her head and looked towards the CEOs sit

"thank God that he isn't here or else I would have died of embarrassment.... He said he would come to work today... Why didn't he come... I hope everything is alright "Emma sighed and her stomach grumbled again

"alright alright eat so hold your horses", Emma said and excited the office

She went downstairs to the cafeteria where she met Sage who was going to the area where the food was being served... They locked eyes and Emma looked away as if she saw an irrelevant individual

Sage who was angry about Emma's lack of acknowledgement saw that Emma was about to pick a tray and rushed to pick the tray before Emma unbeknownst to her that Emma foresaw her actions

Emma took the tray and turned to Sage whose face was as red as a tomato

"Not today sage... Has anyone ever told you that you're childish...Why don't you consider changing your tricks they are so old-fashioned you know.... " Emma said and walked away leaving Sage standing there in embarrassment

Emma served herself and was about to take a sit when she saw Sage coming towards her with a tray of food in her hands from the corner of her eye she sighed inwardly and moved from her position making Sage who wanted to throw the plate of food at her trip

"oops," Emma smirked looking at Sage who fell to the ground with food spilt all over her she looked at the smirking Emma with rage-filled eyes

Sage looked at Emma one last time and ran out of the canteen in embarrassment

She cleaned her white top and looked at herself in the mirror...

'I'll make you pay for this Emma Jones I swear you are gonna beg me on your knees ' Sage mused angrily

Meanwhile, Emma ate her goods happily and when it was time to go home she packed her bag and left

She stood in front of the company for a long time and couldn't find any taxi so she decided to walk until she came across a taxi

A black Rolls Royce stopped in front of her

The back seat window rolled down and she saw Alex sitting there with his head down looking like he was busy with something

She looked at him dazedly

Alex looked up and met her eyes

"do you want me to talk before you get in?" Alex asked and Emma mouthed an 'oh' before she opened the car door and got into the car

Alex placed his head on the headrest with his eyes closed while Emma who just sat down, greeted Josh who was driving then she turned to the man beside her looking at him as if she wanted to dig a hole in his face

"what's wrong," Alex asked when he felt her gaze on him

"why didn't you come to work today sir I hope everything is alright "Emma asked

"yes I had some matters to take care of " Alex replied

"ok," Emma said and the rest of the journey went on in silence until Emma saw that they had gone past her apartment

"oh you just drove pass my apartment" Emma voiced out receiving no reply she repeated the comment the second and third time that was when adrenaline rushed through her she thought of many bad possibilities which made her so scared

'what's going on... What if he is an imposter.... am I being kidnapped ' Emma screamed in her mind...she could feel cold sweat dripping from her forehead

As if Alex could read her mind "Calm down I'm not an imposter" he said with his eyes closed

Hearing what he said Emma felt a bit calm

" where are you taking me to" she asked

"the court house" Alex stated simply

"and if I may ask, why do we need to go to the court house," she asked

After a few seconds, Alex opened his eyes and leaned towards her

Their faces were only inches apart

"let's get married" Alex said with a smirk making Emma's eyes widen in shock
