Chapter 4

The next morning Emma watched the video and heard the voice memo and her heart broke. How could Reid do that to her? She stood up and stormed into the office angrily. It wasn't helping that Ruby was just coming out of the office. Emma punched Ruby in the face before she stormed past her and into the office. "Emma!"Reid said relieved. "Snow..." But he couldn't finish his sentence.

Emma kicked him hard in the balls and then punched his face. He groaned and looked up. "I hate you. You won't see this child and I promise you that you won't see Henry ever again! You bastard! How could you cheat with her and pretend you would love me? It's sickening!"Emma shouted and slapped him again before she stormed out.

Reid fell on his knees and started crying. Everything was destroyed. The love of his life. His true love. She never wanted to talk to him again. His secretary found him an hour later sobbing on the ground and she called Granny who quickly came over. She took him to her house and he curled up on her couch. He didn't left this place for four days until Henry came.

"Did you do it?"Henry asked and he shook his head. "I could never hurt her... I would rather die than hurt her."Reid sobbed and Granny entered the room. "He is laying there since 4 days... since your mother broke up with him. If it wasn't for me he would have stayed in the office crying there..."Granny told him and Henry sighed.

"Why would Ruby do that?"Henry asked saddened. "I didn't...just at the beginning... I... I never thought that Snow would pull that shit... I... I love Reid but... but I know that I'm not the woman who makes him happy and Snow didn't wanted to listen. She faked a tape and then... then this happened. And Emma won't talk to me... she doesn't even listen..."Ruby answered and Henry turned around.

He walked over to her and slapped her. "YOU DESTROYED MY FAMILY!"he shouted at her but didn't saw how Reid poofed away behind them. He pulled out his phone after he had poofed. He stood in front of his car. He dialed Emma's number.

"I know that you don't want to talk to me ever again... but before I go I need to tell you something. I never cheated on you. Ask Ruby. Ask everyone... I just love you... and even if you don't believe me that, believe that I love you and no one else... I transferred our house to you completely... the adoption papers are signed...my money... is yours...I give you everything I still own... I know that it hurts for you to listen or to see me so I am going... i will leave this town... go somewhere where I can't hurt people ever again... I'm sorry."he said and hung up. He climbed into his car and slowly started to drive.

Ruby who had seen what Reid had done ran to Emma. She had to confess everything. She found Emma with her phone in her hand and she grabbed her harshly before she could do anything else. "You need to listen to me now and I won't accept a no."Ruby snapped at Emma who looked at her shocked.

"Reid loves you. He never cheated on you... it was Snow... she faked a video and this memo. It was the whole opposite. He talked this shit about me. That he doesn't love me because he wants to marry YOU and have children with YOU! I'm sorry..." She felt Emma's slap and gasped. "Get him back!" Emma looked at her car. "He is about to do something stupid."Ruby screamed and Emma hurried to her car and quickly drove to the town line.

Reid was standing in front of the line and was staring at the picture of him and Emma's first date. He was crying and looked up again. He would never hurt anyone ever again. He just needed to step over the town line. "Stop!"Emma shouted behind him and he stiffened. He turned around and looked at Emma who was standing now in front of him. "Stop."she said and wiped his tears away. "Why?"he asked and she smiled watery. "Because I know the truth now."she told him. "And I'm a bitch." "No... you aren't."Reid said and Emma cupped his cheek. "How could I doubt you even a second? All this time... you treated me like a queen. You loved me with your whole heart... and I doubted you... I'm sorry, Reid..."she told him and he kissed her softly.

"I love you."Reid whispered. "I love you too."Emma answered and sighed. They stood in a soft embrace. "You would really give up everything for me so that I can be happy?" "Yes."Reid answered and Emma smiled. "I would do that too..."she said and he nodded. "I know, honey." "Snow will never be allowed in the range of Henry and our baby ever again. She won't be at the wedding and certainly she won't be teaching our son."Emma said and Reid nodded.

He kissed her and lifted her up. "You smell."Emma said and Reid smiled. "I was more like a corpse than like a human..."he told her and she hugged him. "I know... me too."she whispered and tugged him to the cars. "Come on. Let's go home." They drove back home where Granny was waiting with Henry.

Granny shouted at Emma for a few minutes before she calmed down again and hugged Reid. "You are still helping me?"Granny asked and Reid nodded. "Yes. As long as I am allowed."Reid answered and looked to Emma. "We have to switch roles for a long time now, Reid... I was unforgivable... Do it. Help Granny."Emma told him and he smiled softly. He kissed her softly.
