The Accidental Wife (Emily and Julian)

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.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

"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?" Ansel hollered from afar, catching our attention.

"Let's go," Emily said and we all headed to the rest of the crowd.

The event was a familial one as neither Emily nor I wanted any kind of unwanted attention. We knew that our family wouldn't leak anything to the media, but we didn't trust outsiders, even if we had known them for years. We had had our fair share of betrayal, so it was bett safe than

sorry.

sily wondered, looking for our daughter.

"Where's Rosie Emily v

Ever since Emily found out about her pregnancy and toki Rosie, she made sure to give her more attention than before because she didn't want her to think that she might be forgotten or neglected even for one moment.

"Here I am, Mom!" Emily's smaller version called out as she jogged towards us with her cousins.

I loved the fact that my daughter took after my beloved wife in a lot of things. That was enough to assure me that she would end up doing amazing things with her life. She was very independent for her own age and that scared me a little. What calmed me was looking at E After Emily and I got married, Rosie was starting to truly understand that our family was very well-

known in society and sometimes, we needed to be extra careful because many people wanted to know our private matters. We tried to make things as simple as possible when we explained to her how

she should act and how privacy was important. Luckily, we were blessed with a very intelligent and witty daughter who made the process a lot

eavier for us

I remember how anxious Emily was when we decided to send Rosie to school after being homeschooled for a long while. We sent her to a prestigious private school, yet it was hard for Emily to not be worried about Rosie. I was worried too as I was well aware that snakes

One of the things we made sure to tell Rosie after she was old enough was the truth behind my not existing in her life for the first four years. When Emily and I made the decision to tell her, I was petrified; I didn't want my daughter to hate me. I didn't want her to think that or Fortunately, I was blessed with an understanding and forgiving daughter. She told me, "Mom forgave you and I trust her judgment. I know you won't do that to her again" with a reassuring smile on her face.

After taking a lot of pictures, we decided to do the gender reveal, Emily and I decided to use confetti bombs. There were many ideas to choose from, but my wife favored simplicity and she didn't want anything that might cause harm to anybody. Whatever Emily wanted, Emily got. That was the thing I always made sure of. I didn't mind spoiling my girls, because they deserved everything they wanted.

"Are you ready to know the gender of your first baby?" Maya asked as she gave Emily the first bomb

"I can't wait!" she beamed, looking at me.

"Please let it be a girl. I heard my daughter say, making me chuckle. She wanted a baby sister so bad.

Emily twisted the end of the bomb and blue confetti got scattered in the air, making everybody cheer around us.

"You still have another chance," Harper assured her niece who looked slightly bummed that she was getting a baby brother instead,

Sam handed me the other confetti bomb and I saw excitement in my wife's eyes. She was so eager to know the gender of the other baby. I too was excited, but I was more excited to meet the baby no matter what their gender was than to know what the gender would be. I was so thankful that 1 got to experience this pregnancy journey with Emily.

I twisted the bomb and pink confetti erupted, making my daughter squeal happily; her voice was the loudest. She was getting the sister she had always wanted. I knew that Rosie was going to be a fantastic big sister. I had seen her with Audrey, Maya, and Sam's daughter

I turned to my wife and pulled her into a hug before kissing her. I was in love with the genuine happiness anybody could easily detect in her beautiful green eyes. It looked so good on her and I hoped to always see it.

Harper handed Rosie two small onesies for our babies. One of them was blue and the other was pink. Rosie made her way towards her with a big smile on her face and the three of us took pictures while holding the small onesies

"Don't gang up with your sister on your brother," I playfully warned her.

"We won't, but it's good to have somebody I can share my interests with," she replied, still smiling.

No matter how much I tried to express how thankful I was for everything I was blessed with, I was certain that words would fail me. I didn't think that there was a man on this planet who was as happy as I

was. I didn't need anything else from life. I was thankfully given everything I had always wished for.

"I can't wait to meet them" Emily exclaimed, placing her hands on her belly and I placed my hand over hers. We still

had four months to and I wasn't sure how my eager wife was going to wait. I caught her talking to them a lot and when I asked her about it, she said she was trying to bond with them and she did the same when she was pregnant with Rosic. "You still want more babies?" I asked her, pulling her close to me,

"Absolutely! Just give me three years to catch my breath after giving birth and we can try for the last time" She grinned, making me chuckle. She already had a plan set in her head.

Honestly, if she wanted more babies, I didn't mind. I knew that Emily had dreams of having a big family and if pregnancy didn't take a toll on her health, then I was surely going to give her what she desired.

"Your wish is my command, sunshine," I pressed my lips against hers, tasting the sweetness of her lips.

Yes, I was the luckiest man alive.
