The Accidental Wife by Sara Islam

Chapter

81

For the past two years, my life had been nothing but an absolute fairytale. It all resembled one of the books my wife was so in love with. To be honest, some of them were amusing and

quite enjoyable, but I would never tell her that out loud. She didn't need to know that I had downloaded a few of them on my phone to know what she liked to read about. She was very fond of those billionaire CEO novels and i I was good that I was one of them

I remember one day I dreamt of making a family with Emily and even though she was mine, it still felt surreal that she was my wife and I had three children with her. Well, we had Rosie and there were two on the way, I couldn't wait to meet them.

Our backyard was full of people since Harper and Maya decided to hold a gender reveal party for our babies Honestly, I didn't care about their genders. I just wanted them and definitely Emily to be healthy. That was my number one priority.

"Hey, sunshine" I kissed my wife's cheek as I handed her a glass of juice, making sure that she was hydrated on that sunny day. Her swollen belly was visible under the light yellow dress she had on. Her cheeks had lately become a little bit chubby, which made them more "Hey, babe" She leaned against me.

"You've been standing for a while, Emily. Don't you think it's time for you to sit down?" I was really worried about her, especially since she faced some difficulties during the first three months of her pregnancy.

"The doctor said it's fine for her to move around, Julian. Don't be overbearing Mum scolded me.

"Well, excuse me for wanting to make sure my wife is okay."I playfully rolled my eyes I was aware that I might be overprotective, but Emily had been through a lot and throughout the years. I learned not to take any risks when it came to her. It took me a lot of time to win he "It's okay, Rose. I'm used to him being insufferable. Emily commented as she smirked in my direction. I knew she didn't mind how I had recently become overbearing and I was glad that she gave me the chance to visibly show my worry and overprotectiveness without havi I loved every single thing about this woman, but the thing I loved the most about her was how she was very understanding of me. Not once had she judged me for my fears and vulnerabilities. She met my worries with a beautiful

smile and her soothing nature. She had never let me face whatever kept me awake at night on my own, even if she had her own things to worry about. She was the shoulder I could cry on literally and figuratively, She was everything I had ever wished for

I was so incredibly proud to get to call her my wife. That successful, beautiful, resilient, compassionate, and kind woman was mine.

Emily was my partner in everything in my life and every day, I thanked God that we managed to find our ways to each other despite all that we had been through. I wasn't sure how I was going to continue living my life if she wasn't in it, but I was glad that I didn't have an a "Don't you guys want to take some pictures?"
