Chapter 85
Emma and Trevor had no idea they were thinking differently. Trevor thought Emma would treat him to lunch or dinner. He even thought about having her cook for him, while Emma thought Trevor only wanted a gift or something. She opted for a pen just so Crystal would not harass her again. They thought they had reached an agreement, so they put this behind them.
Trevor said, “I heard Wesley is going to post an announcement with Alpha‘s official account.”
Emma wondered how he found out about that, and he said, “You should do it with your own account. Alpha is a whole company. It would not bode well for you if Wesley failed to keep it under control. The shareholders might lose money over this.”
Emma pursed her lips. She knew that Trevor had a point. He had this convincing charm about him, so she accepted his suggestion instinctively. She muttered, “Sure.” Emma was wondering if she should accept Wesley‘s help. She would owe him too much if he did defend her with the company‘s name.
Trevor wanted her to post the announcement to her own wall so she would not get more haters. He was also telling Wesley to stop making any moves on Emma. She would owe him a favor if he staked the company on her. Emma never knew how to say no. She might even say yes to Wesley‘s proposal if he did not stop him. Emma failed to see through Wesley‘s plans, but Trevor did. He asked, “Do you have your own Twitter account?”
“Yes…” Emma answered awkwardly.
She did have a Twitter account, but most of the content was related to Trevor. It was a diary of her days. It recorded her happiness, frustration, and sadness throughout the relationship. She kept a record of the marriage on her own Facebook wall. Her account was just a place for her to vent. She never posted any photos of herself or the people in her life, so nobody knew who she was. She did not have to worry about anyone finding out about her posts.
She was a wordsmith, so she would post little snippets of her opinion on dramas and movies. Her masterful writing garnered her some fans, but there were not a lot of them. She only had about two to three thousand. Sometimes, she would also share the food she made. Aside from that, she would repost Susanna‘s new show and movies. She never logged in after she posted one last tweet since the divorce.
‘Three years. It’s over now. The dream is gone. My heart‘s a million picces now, but I have to pick myself up. That was her last tweet, and there were a few comments underneath. The netizens were cheering her on.
“Do your best, girl. It‘ll get better!
“You‘re a wonderful and gentle woman. His loss.
‘You‘re a good writer. You should write more. Try starting a career in writing!
She was touched by the comments, but she had decided to delete all the tweets about her relationship in case someone found out. She refused to let Trevor know she wrote so much mushy stuff. To make things worse, her username was ‘EmLuvTre! She felt goosebumps all over her just by thinking about that. Oh my god, why did I come up with that name? Am I stupid?
Trevor noticed her awkward answer. He asked, “Why do you sound so awkward? Do you have some dirty little secret in your account?”
Emma felt like screaming. Yeah! And all of it is about you!
Before she could say anything, he continued, “Emma, you probably have an account for a while now. So you were thinking about someone else even after you got married to me.”
Emma fumed when she heard this, and she decided not to hold back. “Why are you annoyed? You‘re the same! You flirted around with Crystal even when you were married to me!” You accused me of cheating even before I can say anything? Well, you‘re not that much better either!
Trevor held his fury back. “She works for my company. It‘s normal that I attend those events with her. I‘m not responsible for all the lies those rcporters come up with.”
“Lies?” Emma could not believe he was brushing it off so easily. She complained, “You spent a whole night with Crystal in a hotel on the day of our marriage! You can‘t deny that, can you?”
Emma never brought up the rumors of him having an affair with Crysta during their marriage, not even once. She was surprised she brought that up a year after the divorce. She had no idea why she did that. She was probably furious about Trevor‘s hypocrisy.
“On the day of our marriage?” Trevor did not seem to remember, and Emma teared up.
“Thanks for the help, Mr. Bateson. I’ll be going now.” She refused to talk anymore, so she simply hung up. She was really hurt by what he did on the day of their marriage. Since they had no wedding, that became their nuptial night. She looked forward to his return that night, but all she got was the shocking news of him spending the night with Crystal in a hotel.
He did not bother explaining himself back then, and he was acting the same one year later. Emma had had enough. She started crying after she hung up. He doesnt care about me. That‘s why he keeps hurting me.
Trevor was fuming after she hung up on him. He just realized what she was talking about, and he was going to explain, but she had hung up right away. Goddammit. He was at a loss for words. He lost count of how many times she had hung up on him. She‘s so classless! The divorce did a number on her
Crystal had threatened to kill herself on the day of their marriage. Her parents and his folks had called him, asking him to comfort her. He did not want any accidents to happen, so he had gone to the hotel she stayed in. Crystal had a fever after she calmed down, so he stayed back to take care of her. He did still like her a little back then, but he swore he did nothing to her that night.
