My sudden husband

Passing out

The closer he walked to her, the more she stumbled backwards. He quickly held her shoulders to stop her from moving backwards.

Now she could get a clearer view of his face. He had short hair, part of it was styled to cover his forehead - almost touching his eyes. His grey eyes, his curved brows, his sharp nose, his pink lips, his jaw.... He looked perfect.

But she wasn't bad either. She had long brown hair, sky blue eyes, full red lips, pointed nose. She also was beautiful.

"What-what-what are you doing?" She stuttered. "Just let me go, my fiance needs me" She struggled to let herself free from his grip, but couldn't.

"Your fiance? Are you that shameless, mentioning another man before your husband. I know I told you to do anything you want, but I didn't include seeing other men. If you don't respect me then at least respect your daughter!" His voice was as cold as before.

"My. Daughter? What are you saying? I don't have a daughter, I don't know you, I don't understand anything" She was about going crazy.

"Quiet! Stop pretending!! You think we wouldn't find you? Well, you still came back to the city yourself. If not for Emerald, do you think I would want to have something with you? You aren't even my type. Emerald is the only thing linking us, now get rid of this wedding gown and come home with us! ".

At first Phoebe wanted to say something, but then she restricted herself. 'He is really a lunatic' she thought to herself.

"Did you run away from a psychiatric? Tell me I can take you there" She finally spoke up.

"We've found you now. Stop pretending, just come home with us" He removed his hand from her shoulders and held her left wrist. His grip was so tight, she felt her wrist hurting.

"Emerald, come" He said to the little girl and was about to drag Phoebe away, but she pushed freed her grip from his wrist with all her strength.

"Just because you came with this little girl, did you think I will believe all what you said. I am not married!!! You lunatic!" She tried to run away but tripped on her toes.

She closed her eyes expecting herself to be on the floor by now, but she felt somewhere else. She opened her eyes and saw herself in his arms. He saved her from falling.

He helped her regain stamina, then removed his hands from her.

"Emerald, can I check something on your phone" It wasn't a question though, it was a statement.

She gave him the phone and he typed something, before showing the phone to Phoebe.

"This is our wedding photos. It was posted all over the media here in Italy...i don't get it, why are you doing this?" He was also confused at her behavior.

Why was she pretending not to know him?

"That's me in the photo... You must have photoshop it. The question should be directed to you, why are you doing this?" Her voice was now shaking, tears coming out from her eyes.

"I don't get you, just stop all these. For a year now i have been searching for you and now I found you, but you-you've changed, you are pretending not to know me and your daughter... Emerald, didn't I tell you that she abandoned you on purpose. I told you but you didn't believe, now see"His words made the little girl to stary crying.

"Mummy how could you! How could you do such a thing to me! Despite all the promises you made to me, you still left. You want to get married to that man? Go ahead, give birth to more children and also abandon them. Because abandoning people is what you love doing... Let's go dad" After saying those words, Emerald left with her dad.

Phoebe was now the only one in the hall. She couldn't find the priest. She felt her knees becoming heavy, she couldn't do anything, she just fell on her knees and started crying.

Why? Why me! Why did this have to happen? Who's that man and that little girl?

She had never met him before, she recently got to the city how could she be married to him.

"O lord, what have I done to deserve this?" She sobbed more.

******

Oliver stood outside the church with his daughter. She had requested to see her mum for sometime before forgetting her for good. Both of them were staring at her.

"She's such a good actress, now she's crying... I hate her now, after searching for her for a year now, is that how she repaid me?. Emerald sniffled.

" Don't worry, Emerald. Everything is going to be fine, just forget about it, forget about her existence" He stroked her hair gently with his hand.

"You are saying this because you never liked her. I created a bond with her, she was my mother!" Emerald lamented.

"Was?" He had to repeat this part, because he didn't get her.

"To me, she is no longer my mother. Let her go live her happy life with that ugly fiance of hers" Emerald was about to enter the car, but she stopped when she saw her mother fell on the floor inside the hall.

"Daddy" She worriedly called.

"What's up?" He replied, his gaze was fixed on his phone.

"Look, something is wrong with mummy".

Oliver chuckled, "You said you hate her now, that she isn't your mummy, why are you calling her that?" He asked her, his gaze still fixed on his phone.

"Daddy!!" She yelled so hard, making Oliver afraid. He thought something bad immediately happened to her.

"Emerald, what is it?" His face was no longer fixed on his phone. Emerald pointed inside the hall.

"Mummy fainted" Emerald replied and ran in. Oliver ran after her.

"Be careful".

They got inside and saw her laying on the floor, her eyes were closed.

"Dad do something" Emerald yelled in tears. Even if what her mum did angered her, she still loved her.

"Emerald, I...." Before Oliver could complete his sentence, Emerald cuts him off.

"You are a doctor, please do something!"
