The Accidental Wife by Sara Islam

Chapter 5

I got than he didn't like me, but did he really have to make it so obvious? It was clear that he believed I was the one who set him up. He didn't think that I was innocent, and I didn't know how to convince him of that

I walked back inside the house because I didn't know where else to go, Luckily, I found Steven and Rose in front of the once I walked inside the living room.

"1. I wanted to thank you for sticking up for me," I said, looking at them for a moment before looking away. I didn't remember if I did anything wrong or not, however, as I stood in front of them, shame took over me. I really didn't plan any of this," I pathetically added

"Come herr, Emily," Rose spoke with a small smile on her lips as she notioned for me to sit. I did as she said and took a shaky breath. I was mighty with their son, but it was all fake because I didn't want him to think that I was weak. In front of them. I was internally shaking "I'm not as bad as Fiona and Maggie might have portrayed me to be," I attempted to defend myself.

"I would never take anything that Maggie says seriously," Rose chuckled, making me laugh a little. "I want you to stop thinking about what happened as much as you can, alright!

"This is more than enough. Thank you so much," I said. I was truly grateful

We walked inside and 1 was amazed by the beauty of the cottage. It was cozy made of two rooms, a kitchen, a bathroom, and a living room of a good size. I walked towards one of the bedrooms and surely chose the one with the en-suite bathroom. I liked the wooden- style furnishing of the cottage. It made the whole place quite warm

"Is there anything you'd like to change about the place?" Rose asked me after she showed me the whole place.

This is more than enough. Can I hug you, Mrs. Kensington!" I was over the moon with all of that.

"Only if you start calling me Rose." She grinned, opening her arms for me, Quickly, I wrapped my arms around her, and she did the same. It had been so long since I was hugged like that. I swear, I wanted to cry in her arms. She held me tightly and I felt her rubs my back, mother

"Come on, let's get back to the house. You haven't eaten a thing since morning," she said as we pulled away. I realized how hungry I was at the mention of food
