Ever imagined how things would end up if your husband and former crush met face to face??
~~~~~~~~~~~
"Look at you....you look so smart in a suit" Emma said.
They were currently standing in front of a mirror and staring at their reflections. She had her head resting on his shoulder.
"You're the president of Ouracle now"
"I took the day off for you, I couldn't work properly thinking about you" Draken replied, turning to face her.
"And this..." He took out the ring she'd left him and put it back on her finger where it belonged.
"Never take it off again" he said, wrapping his arms around her waist.
"Ok, you're the boss" she replied, wrapping hers around his neck. They made such a sweet couple.
"Emma, once I finish everything... I want to introduce you to my parents..and I'll give you a grand wedding that you deserve" he said, staring at her with love filled eyes.
Her eyes sparkled as well.
"I'm fine with this already... having you is enough" she replied,
She didn't need a grand wedding, she didn't need him to spend his money on her. Introducing her to his parents was more than enough.
"We should go back to our home, we are inconveniencing Ruby" Draken abruptly said....he didn't want her staying away from him any longer.
Ruby overheard them and suddenly entered the room and they were forced to release each other.
"You can stay for as long as you want Mr Hunt..." She entered unannounced, she just admired Draken Hunt way too much. Draken gave her one terrifying look that said it all.
Her presence was not needed there.
"Actually...you should head back to your house Emma, I have relatives coming over" she ate her own words.
"That's okay, I wasn't planning on staying any longer anyway...but thank you so much Ruby" Emma thanked her and hugged her.
"It's okay, I'm always here when you need me" she replied.
Draken didn't bother saying a single word to her....she seemed overly excited about him. She made it so obvious and he hated that.
He and Emma left her house and went outside.
Draken's car was already parked outside, with Erick already waiting for them.
"Boss the car you ordered" Erick handed him the keys.
"Emma, this is Erick, you've seen him before"
Emma remembered the multiple times she saw Erick, at the hospital, the delivery guys and all that.
"He's the same delivery man" she pointed out.
"Nice to meet you Mrs Emma"' Erick formally greeted her, before Draken opened the door for her to enter.
"Send my regards to Emma's friend for me, you know what to do" Draken whispered to Erick before he entered the car and drove off.
"God! Why does it have to be me?" Erick asked himself walking towards Ruby's house, and knocked.
As soon as she opened the door, Erick was left in a daze, he found her pretty.
Love at first sight
"Dude? Are you lost?" Ruby asked, she'd had enough of men in suits today.
"I'm Erick, Mr Draken's right hand man" he introduced himself to her.....what was he even thinking.
"I'm Ruby," Ruby replied more calmly.....was this going to be the start of her love story.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
"So all this time, you were asking them to make those deliveries?" Emma asked Draken while pouting.
"Didn't you like them, I only did that for you" Draken replied with his eyes still fixed on the road, he was driving.
He never drove himself, it was always Erick or Shaun but for Emma, it was an exception.
"I did like it, but you could deliver it yourself you know" she said before her phone suddenly rang.
Unknown caller ID
" Who could be calling?" Emma asked herself before she picked it up.
"Emma, it's me Alex!" The person on the other line said.
"Alex?? How did you get my number?"
As soon as Draken heard it was another man calling her and she had such a big smile in her face talking to him, he became jealous.
"I have my ways" Alex replied.
"Why did you call?" She asked.
"Let's meet at our old restaurant, I want to talk to you about something important, I'm already waiting for you" he replied.
"Sure. I'll be there" Emma said before she hung up.
"I need to go somewhere" she said to Draken.
"Where? Who was that on the phone?" He asked, clearly jealous.
"My cousin, he wants to meet up...he just came back to the country" Emma replied with all smiles.
The more she did, the more he grew jealous. He increased the car speed.
"Hey! Slow down. I can get off here" Emma said after realizing what he was doing.
She couldn't tell he was jealous
"No. I'll take you wherever you need to go, I'll go with you" Draken replied.
"Fine" Emma said before she put the address of the restaurant on the screen.
She looked at Draken, his mood had changed all of a sudden, thinking about it, it changed after her phone call.
She just let it slide and got back to her phone.
~~~~~~~~~~~
AT THE RESTAURANT~~~~~
Draken and Emma arrived, the restaurant was more quiet than usual. It was usually noisy with so many customers.
"Over here" Alex called her over to his table.
Draken followed closely behind her, taking a good look at this 'cousin'
"I didn't know you were coming with a friend" Alex said and the word friend made things worse.
He seemed not to know about Draken's identity.
"Uhmm....Alex let me introduce you to Draken Hunt, he's my husband" Emma said, before Alex stood up surprised!
She was married
"Draken, this is Alex my cousin"
The fact that Emma was married shocked him, but that didn't sting as much as her calling him cousin. The man before him was his love rival apparently.
Clash!!
"Nice to meet you" Alex said, extending his arm for a handshake but Draken just looked at him with no reply.
What's with his strange behavior
"Just leave him be," Emma replied on his behalf. Alex had been left hanging.
He pulled out a chair close to his for her to sit, but Draken stopped him by pulling out a chair of his own for her and then made her sit close to himself.
"Thank you" she whispered to him.
" Is it really appropriate to talk with him around, this is a personal matter I even booked the entire restaurant just to talk to you alone" Alex said, but his words were getting on Draken's nerves.
"It's okay, he's my family...I share everything with him" Emma replied holding Draken's hand under the table to calm him down.
"Alright. Its Sam, when did both if you start fighting, you two don't get along anymore" Alex said.
"Alex, it's a long story, but its been long since Sam and I last got along, its too late to do anything now...." She replied.
"You don't get along...she even wants to get your shares in Dave Corp, is your relationship really that bad?" Alex asked.
That caught Draken's attention, what was Sam upto now, trying to ruin Emma's life again.
"It doesn't matter anymore Alex, I don't need them. She can do whatever she wants" Emma replied, tightening her grip on Draken's hand.
"Alex, if there is nothing else, we'll go ahead" it was clear, she wasn't taking in what he just told her well, she stood up and walked out.
Alex tried to follow her but Draken stopped him again.
"I'll handle my wife cousin, you don't need to worry" he was also addressing him as cousin.
Alex was left hanging again.
