{ONE WEEK LATER~HALTER'S MEDIA~10AM} Emily just walked out of Liam's office, he wasn't happy with the news Nathan released a week ago, he was very angry at Madison, he even made a comment about how Madison and Emily were going to kill him before his time. Emily sat on her desk, and her eyes went to Madison's desk, which was empty. Madison hasn't arrived at work since the news was released, and she wasn't picking any of Emily's calls or messages, which made Emily worry. She knew better than to go to Madison's apartment because she wouldn't be there as the paparazzi were already all over. Emily was the one who advised her to go MIA on the media, but now she is worried about Madison's whereabouts. She didn't tell her to go MIA on herself. "You really don't know where she is?" Emily heard Jack's voice behind her, and she turned. Another coworker she doesn't like very much. "No.. I don't, " Emily replied. "Are both of you planning it or what? It was you all over the news before, now it's Madison, how wonderful," Jack scoffed, and Emily glared at him. "This is exactly the reason why you don't have friends," Emily replied. "I have lots of friends, you should speak for yourself," Jack scoffed. "Go away." Emily didn't even know what to say to him. "Oh please, you and Madison are bitçhes, no wonder you both are so close these days," Jack smirked. "What did you say about my wife?" Caden's voice was heard, and Emily turned to see her husband with a frown on his face. She quickly stood up from her chair. She was surprised by his presence. What the fuçk is he doing here??? "Caden?" Emily blinked. The shock didn't only get to Emily. It was even worse on Jack because Caden looked very angry right now. "What did you say to her?" Caden asked again, walking towards Jack. "Caden, leave him alone." Emily tried to speak, but there was no reasoning with Caden because he wasn't even looking at her. His attention was directed towards Jack, who was shaking badly. He knows better than to say anything in front of Caden Kingston. "You can't speak now, huh?" Caden said. "If I see you anywhere around my wife then you'll be asking for death, I don't even want you breathing the same air as her and I would do that by making sure you lose your job for insulting her" Caden spoke with such might. "Leave," he ordered, and Jack scrambled away. "You didn't have to do that," Emily reprimanded. "Whoever gave him the right to talk to you in such a manner, he would pay for that," Caden replied. "Like I said, it's not necessary, Jack is always a jerk. What are you even doing here?" Emily asked. "Can't I come see my wife at her workplace?" Caden shrugged. "Noo... Noo... Noo... I don't know whatever game you're playing, but I don't like being a part of it, Caden. " Emily frowned. "What game? There's no game, " Caden replied with a smirk. "Your face says otherwise, I'm working, don't you have somewhere you want to be right now, I would really appreciate you leaving" Emily said as she looked around to see some of her colleagues staring at Caden. Even those who aren't on this floor of the building came here just for Caden. He is creating such a mess in the building. "I would leave if you'll come with me," Caden replied casually. "What part of I'm working, don't you get?" Emily said, reducing her voice for only Caden to hear. "I don't care, you don't have to work, and I'm not leaving here without you," Caden said. "I can't leave without my boss's permission." Emily tried to use that to escape. She has been trying her best to avoid Caden throughout the week. Maybe that's what made him come all the way to her workplace Or was it just to get on her nerves? "I would talk to him then," Caden said, and Emily sighed in defeat. "You're an àsshole" Emily rolled her eyes and picked up her stuff while Caden chuckled. _ "Where are we going?" Emily asked as Caden drove. He has been driving for quite a while since they left Halter's media. "A restaurant, since you have been avoiding me, I would take this as my compensation," Caden replied. "I haven't been avoiding you," Emily replied. "That's not the way I see it," Caden said, and Emily sighed The car stopped in front of an expensive looking restaurant and they walked inside. Emily couldn't help the gasp that came out of her lips. This place was beautiful, she hadn't been to this restaurant before, it was huge and amazingly decorated. "Amazed?" Caden asked with a smirk. "Who wouldn't be?" Emily answered, and Caden smiled. They walked to a table and sat down. "I own it," Caden said casually, and Emily paused as she turned to Caden with a frown. "No. You don't" Emily said, not like he didn't have the money to build a restaurant, of course he does, but the designs and decorations have nothing to do with him and Caden doesn't strike as the type. "Yes I do, no one knows I own it though, one of the many properties my father don't know I have" Caden said and Emily was shocked, she knew Caden and his father had a strained relationship which she believes is none of her business but she didn't know he had properties he hid from his father but that's not even what was surprising to her right now "Did you pick this design yourself?" Emily asked. "Yes.... It's my restaurant, " Caden replied, and Emily blinked. "What???" "Is it really that unbelievable, I'm Caden Kingston?" Caden reminded me. "I didn't know you had such good taste," Emily said truthfully. "Now you know," Caden replied. A waiter walked up to them, and they made their orders. "So, why are we here?" Emily asked. "Compensation," Caden replied. "You really expect me to believe that? What exactly do you want, Caden? " Emily asked more seriously. "Do you really want to know?" Caden asked. "If I didn't, then I wouldn't ask you," Emily answered. "I want you." Caden smiled, and Emily blinked, her cheeks turned rosy, and a warm feeling rushed through her. She was taken by surprise, but then again, this is Caden Kingston. He is definitely messing with her. "I'm serious, Caden." Emily quickly masked her blush with anger. "I'm also serious," Caden replied casually. "You're an àsshole" Emily complained, and Caden smirked, then she remembered what he had told her before. About how her calling him an àsshole turns him on. Fuçk you Caden Kingston Emily's cheeks heated more as she really couldn't hide it with anger this time. What even made matters worse is that Caden was staring at her so intensely with that stupid smirk on his face, and Emily couldn't help but feel really embarrassed. Thank goodness the waiter came, and Emily quickly diverted her attention to the man who was serving them their food. She ended up staring at the man too much just to get her eyes away from Caden, which wasn't a good idea because Caden frowned. He was looking at her, and she was staring at the waiter. Was the waiter more handsome than him or what? Caden made a mental note to have this waiter fired. The waiter finished serving their food and left, so Emily turned her attention to the food. "I'm over here, Emily," Caden said, and Emily looked up at him. "Are you avoiding my gaze, wife?" Caden raised an eyebrow. "Let's just eat." Emily quickly changed the topic and started eating, Caden didn't eat, though. He made sure to focus his attention on Emily
