The Accidental Wife by Sara Islam

Chapter 41

It had been three days since I found out about my little Rosalie. She was perfect in every single way, I was already attached to her and I had just met her less than a week ago. I thought she was going to keep her distance from me, but Emily did a good job. She prepared h Not only dut she tell her that she had a father, but I also realized that Rosie knew a lot about me. She knew my favorite food, my favorite colour, my hobbies, and a lot of other things. My daughter was so smart for her age and quite talkative too.

I hadn't felt as good as I was now freling in so long. Rosie had brought a unique kind of joy to my heart I hadn't felt before. I hadn't been okay for so long. I failed to find happiness in anything I did,

but then Emily and Rosie appeared out of nowhere and I was finally starting to taste the true meaning of happiness again.

"You look nervous," I said, looking at Emily as we both stood beside my car. We had just arrived at my parents" place.

"Because I'm nervous," she replied. I liked that she wasn't trying to hide how she was really feeling in front of me. I was aware that she had a boyfriend, but I liked that she still allowed me to see a part of her true self.

Perhaps it was pathetic of me to think like that, but I was waiting for her. I was waiting for any moment that could be considered suitable enough for me to speak my heart out to her. I was willing to wait for an indefinite period of time. Even if she got married, I still planned to I couldn't love any other woman on that planet but her. If I couldn't have her, I didn't want anybody else.

"It's going to be okay. Expect my mum to get emotional, but I'm sure everything will go smoothly." We planned on telling my family about Rosie today, but Emily was nervous as hell.

Rosie wasn't with us as we thought it would be better to reveal that huge secret to them first to prepare them for meeting her

"I'm scared that they may hate me." For a moment, I saw glimpses of the old Emily. I saw the innocence I was in love with.

"Do you care about how they feel about you?" I asked as we walked towards the front door.

"Of course! Your family was the family I never got to have," she replied in a heartbeat.

"Was? You do know that my parents sull love you, right? They probably consider you their daughter. Harper loves you so much and was devastated when you disappeared" She had to know that they loved her and no matter what, she always had a place at their home. "I love them too, but... things cannot be the same Julian." She didn't give me the chance to reply as she quickly rang the doorbell, putting an end to our conversation.

One of the maids opened the door for us and we walked inside.

To say that Mum was surprised to see the two of us walking together would be an understatement. I had already told her that I wanted to tell her, Dad and Harper about something, but I didn't say anything abour Emily. "Amelia, it's nice to see you, sweetheart" Mum got up from her place and gave her a hug.
