Chapter 178

• EMILY’S POV.
• “Emily.” He called, and immediately bridged the gap between us, taking long strides towards me. He took the gag off my mouth, hastily, then stared deeply into my eyes, his pupils darting from left to right.
• “Have you… have you been well?” I asked, as my eyes watered once more. “Have you… have you been fine?” My voice wobbled terribly. “I’ve been waiting… I’ve been waiting for a long time.” I said, not wanting to burst into tears. Once more, I was seeing him. I was in front of him, and he was in front of me.
