• Amy reached emmas apartment very fast after Emma told her she wanted to meet the father of her child,
• “ Are you crazy?!?” Amy shouted as he unlocked the door of emmas home to see Emma pacing about in the living room,
• “I feel like it’s the best thing to do for the child, I’m going to contact him”
• “How are you even going to find him do you even know his name Emma,” Amy asked her frantically
• “I don’t know, but I will meet him, he can’t just vanish into thin air”
• “ But now Emma, why did you think of him, did something happen?”
• “..I got fired at work by Mr. Jonathan, he knows I’m pregnant and does not see a pregnant woman as an asset to his business, so I got laid off”
• “ How can he do that?! After you worked so hard! Oh my God he is an awful human being and will regret letting you go, I can’t believe him” Amy hollered in anger “I will go back to the club and see what I can get”
• Amy assured her, she walked to where Emma stood and hugged her,
• Emma was grateful that Amy always stood by her side no matter what,
• Amy left to go to the club, leaving Emma alone in the apartment, Emma walked through her room and close the door to lay some and rest her head, she was stressed enough as it is,
• Her eyes immediately moved to the jacket that still Hung on her door, Emma quickly sat up and walked to the jacket
• she touch the fabric, and she tried to recall if the stranger had to tell her his name, but he didn’t. Her hands felt through the jacket till she stopped at the pocket
• Wait a minute.
• She paused, Emma felt something there, she searched the pocket, patting it down to find a business card that read ‘King’s Enterprise’ and the CEO’s Name was Rowan king
• This was the company she had applied to become an intern for her last year in college, but hadn’t gotten a reply yet,
• Rowan king, could that be her mystery baby daddy? She thought she had a lead now and she had to try no matter what to talk to him
• ..
• The very next day, Emma set out to the company, she had taken his jacket into a bag and went into the company to return it to him,
• Emma’s eyes looked around in amazement at the majestic designs and aura of King’s enterprise, it was packed and busy with people
• She spotted a reception desk and marched up to the receptionist, she may not have the trendiest or most expensive clothes, but she tried to look approachable and formal
• She wore a blue sundress and black heels with her brown hair tousled up into a messy but sophisticated bun,
• “Hello, how can I help you?” The receptionist whose ID tag read ‘Mary’ said to her
• “ Hi good morning, is Mr. Rowan king in? I would like to see him”
• “ do you have an appointment with him?”
• “..no but I have something I have to give him and tell him”
• “ it does not work that way ma’am” the receptionist argued, “ we don’t allow anyone to see our CEO without an appointment
• “ you don’t understand, he gave me this card, tell him I’m from magenta ” even though Emma knew she was lying that he gave her his card, this was her only way in, and she would use it,
• “ I’m sorry even with that you can enter in, I will have to call security for you miss if you continue to be so persistent!”
• The receptionist called rudely,
• “ you don’t need to do that,” a voice called from behind Emma, she looked up to see a tall handsome man who the receptionist must have recognized since she instantly changed her tone
• “ Mr. Rogers!” She quipped “ I’m sorry she just did not-”
• “ It’s alright Mary, I’ll take her with me” Keith called giving the receptionist an easy smile that had her blushing
• His hands moved to Emma’s waist and held her, as he led her to the elevator, he let go of her waist as soon as the elevator closed,
• And turned to look at her, his eyes weary with questions, “ you said you’re from the magenta club, you don’t look like you belong in that sort of place, what are you doing here?”
• “ I -I need to speak to Mr king” Emma stuttered from how close in her space he was, Keith’s head cocked to the side in amusement, his eyes moved to the bag she was holding “ he left his um, j-jacket”
• “ I know,”
• He gave a few feet away from her as his hazes watched the elevator floor they were on, it reached level 23 and stopped,
• “ be sure to keep what you want to say to him shortly and fast, he’s in a.. mood and you don’t want to get on his bad side” Keith warned before she stepped out of the elevator
• She was first met by the secretary who gave her a small greeting before she walked to the large glass door that read “ CEOs office”
• She gave a small knock before she entered the office, and her breath hitched, she knew as soon as she saw him, that this was him, this was her mystery man, her perfect stranger
• Her thoughts were cut short by his raspy voice that came out in a harsh tone “ who are you?” He asked,
• “ you may not remember me, but I’m from Magenta’s club, we met that night, ”
• “ I assure you I remember nothing of sorts, now tell me who are you?” he called as she stood up from his chair, his aura was no joke, every step he took screamed Dominant
• His grey eyes searched her green ones, but it was filled with annoyance and no patience
• “ My Name is Emma I-I”
• She could tell he was losing his patience “ who alleged you up here I will call security-”
• “-We slept together that night, and now I’m pregnant!” she announced loudly, there was a beat of silence after her statement before he let out a Cold chuckle
• “ you must think I’m a fool, you think I have any business with this child? That may not even be mine?”
• “ I would never do that Mr king, I have every reason to believe it is your child, why would I lie?”
• “ how much do you want ?” He said, cutting her off as he brought out a check and wrote a sum hundred thousand bucks, and flung it to her “ this is what you want right? Now get out”
• “ Is this what you see me as?”
• “Seeing that you came so far for money, you are a cheap whore, so you should leave my office!”
• Emma flinched from how harsh he was, Emma didn’t even know when she raised her hands and gave him a loud smack on his cheeks,
• “ I am glad I’m aborting this child, and I hope we never meet again Mr king”, Emma didn’t even look at the check and left his office from being so humiliated,
• she would have been worth less than nothing if she accepted that money after what he said no matter how desperate she was
• She docked out of the office and ran for the elevator, not even noticing the secretary who had been eavesdropping all along
• the secretary ran to her phone and dialed a number in haste
• “ hello, Mrs king? I have news about the president “
