A Deal With The Billionaire CEO 131
Damien 131I was not expecting to see my wife when I got down from the Limousine. Even more, I was surprised to see her with Emilio, her estranged father. I saw a look etched on Isabella’s face that was filled with questions and accusation at the same time. I wondered what she had been told. What baffled me the most was that Marcus, the husband of the woman I had been I the vehicle with was here with my wife. What was going on?“It seemed like everyone is here after all,” Rose said. I ignored her and went to where Isabella was.“What happened? Where did you go?” I asked.“Why is she in the car with you?” Isabella asked me, referring to Camilla.“I have no idea what role she is meant to play in our lives but she is involved in all these somehow,” I told her, helpless. But she had not answered my question.“You still have not told me why you disappeared all of a sudden, I believed that you were kidnapped,” I told her, throwing Emilio a dirty look. He regarded me with a steady and cold g

Isabella 132.I was disturbed by Camilla’s presence. I was concerned by her newfound position of power. I realized that I never had an inkling of the kind of person to was. I could not deny that I was worried about how closer she was to the whole thing because I mistook her for an outsider of the company. I could not forget the way she had glared at me when she saw me nor could I forget how she was eyeing my husband like a piece of meat. The joke was on her because Damien would never fall for someone as cruel as her. I was glad for a moment that I was with child, but it seemed dangerous to let her know that I was pregnant.I adamantly waited outside the entrance of the mysterious meeting, dying to know what was so important that someone like Camilla was allowed in and not me. I was loyal and proactive. What the hell was she? She had wrong taste in men, and she worked with con men and pedophiles. The more I thought of it, the less it made sense to me. Renaissance was a massive box of m

Damien 133.I had never wanted to knock out someone so bad until I met my wife’s father. Never had I met someone who was so meddling. He came out of nowhere to save the day and all of a suddenly wanted to play dad. The way everybody thought that they could just come into my life and start making decisions for me. The drive to our home was filled with an uneasy silence from Isabella.After Emilio had basically forced the truth out of me and I was appalled by just how much he knew about Renaissance. I needed to find out how he knew what he knew. Just who the fuck was Emilio Montenegro? The more Jackson drove towards the house, the more I dreaded the impending conversation I was going to have with my wife.The things that I had heard in that meeting filled me with rage and despair. What hurt me the most was that mother had been present and stoic all through. She was quiet throughout the meeting and if I did not know better, I believed that she was part of those who were against me.Senat

Isabella 134.There was a nervous pit in my stomach as we got closer to home. Jackson the jovial bodyguard was grim with worry as he drove the car and looked at the rearview mirror almost every time. Her would glance at the side view mirrors too every chance he had. He was in ultra-watch dog mode and I was confident that he could spot anything that stood out of place as he drove.I looked over at Damien, who was looking moodily out of the window. He was not really looking at anything because it was the only way he could avoid any form of conversation with Jackson still present.We both quickly and silently walked into our apartment without saying a word to Jackson. It was a really long hard and bad day and his funny or snarky comments were not going to cut it. I had believed that we would at least make it into the bedroom before we fell apart, but we could not even make it to the staircase before we both erupted.“I can not believe that you willingly went with him, behind my back,” Da

Damien 135.I was left with a myriad of emotion as soon as my Cara left me. I had seen the look of sadness on her face and without even realizing it, my words had caused her more sadness than I intended. Why could she not see that I was only looking out for her? If she thought that this was a game, then she was sorely mistaken.I had seen how dangerous and depraved some business could be and who they had hired when it comes to protecting their nefarious agenda. I was not going to risk her life by letting her into the dark secrets of the business world. I was so hurt and I knew that she was right. Her feelings were valid and if truth was to be told, I had let Vito had his way for so long because deep down I had been hoping he could at least reach out. Do something to make amends but he had been cold, unrepentant and unremorseful.I would give Isabella the space she needed. In time she would soon come to realize and accept that this for the best. I was still armed and restless. I had a

Isabella 136.I might have not thought my actions through because as soon as I sent my resignation letter to Renaissance, things between Damien and I began to get strained. I looked out the window and saw a long Royce pulling up close to the house. Damien was still down stairs after we had our fight. I saw my two worst enemies step down from the car as soon as the driver opened up the door for them.Natalia and Camilla were two ladies who had made life a bit unbearable for me during the times that I was an employee under them. To make matters worse, Damien used to date one of them and even almost married her, twice. However, it did not work out but I believe that Natalia had not yet taken the hint that Damien had moved on.I saw the two women saunter happily into my home to break the news of my departure to my husband. The truth was that I did all these on purpose. I needed Natalia and Camilla to distract Damien while I got the truth from my dead beat dad. I knew that he would never l

Damien 137.I had heard enough of what these two insane women were talking about. I hated how they both looked at me as if they knew something I did not. I hated that I did not know any of their angle or what ever the fuck they were up to. As soon as my wife resigned, things have been rather confusing. Natalia had a problem with letting go and it was beginning to get on my nerves. Camilla was not who I thought she was and I kept feeling like I had been played for a total fool.“Just who the hell are you, Ms. Valdez?” I asked. From then, on, I had decided to play their game. It was the only way to ease my way out of this. I just hated the method that I had used on to get my way.“I am the woman who is going to bring you to the very dark places, Damien,” Camilla said with a cold professional look etched on her face. It disturbed me a little bit because of how sure how very sure she sounded.“You don’t mind explaining the terms, dark places, do you?” I asked.“It is better to show you, t

Isabella 138.The drive was a slow and long one. Emilio said that the key was to blend in and my husband was probably looking for me as of now."He knows that you are gone by now, he is going to be very upset," Emilio said as he drove."I can not believe that I am doing this to him," I said more to myself than to Emilio."You want answers and this is the only way to get them," Emilio said with a shrug. "I believe that this moment or situation is going to test your love for each other," He added wisely."What do you know about love?" I asked him in disdain."I know about love enough to know that dishonesty and secrets will end it quickly," Emilio replied."Was that how close you and mom were?" I asked. "defying every odd just to be together," I added."Your mother rode with me till the very end, Isabella, even on the verge of death," Emilio said with intense pride.I could tell that Emilio loved mother with all his heart. So how did everything go wrong?"You said something about Damien

Damien My gaze never wavered from Vito's face as I listened to my arch nemesis. The gravity of the situation got more and more deadlier as the night wore on. The papers were still in Vito's hand as I kept the phone to my hear.My father had an inquisitive look on his face as he watched me closely. The line went dead and I put the phone back into my pocket. I collected the the contract and without breaking eye contact, slowly tore it up right in front of him.Vito's eyes widened in shock and utter disbelief. "What the fuck are you doing?" He yelled maniacally as he knelt on the floor trying in vain to join the piece of paper together in a futile attempt.For the first time in my life, I saw him for what he was. An empty barrel of a man, a pathetic and sorry excuse for a husband to my mother and a fucking dead beat piece of shit of a father. I felt nothing but contempt and disgust as I watched him scrambled across the whole floor."Do you know what you have done?!" He yelled at me as h

Isabella As Ava was pushed into the room, I felt a rush of relief flood through me at the sight of her, mingled with a fresh wave of fear for our uncertain future. She stumbled slightly, her eyes wide with shock and confusion, but when she saw me, her expression softened with a mixture of relief and concern."Isabella, darling, are you alright?" she asked, her voice trembling with emotion as she hurried to my side.I reached out to her, my hands shaking as I clutched hers tightly, drawing strength from her presence despite the terror that still gripped me. "I'm scared, Ava," I admitted, my voice barely above a whisper. "I don't know what's going to happen to us."Ava's eyes filled with tears as she wrapped her arms around me, holding me close in a comforting embrace. "We'll get through this together, sweetheart," she said, her voice choked with emotion. "I won't let anything happen to you, I promise."But before we could say another word, the door swung open once again, and Camilla e

Damien As I waited anxiously for Camilla's instructions, every second felt like an eternity. My mind raced with a thousand thoughts, each one more frantic than the last. Where was she keeping Isabella and Ava? What did she want from me? And most importantly, how could I save them from whatever danger they were in?The minutes ticked by agonizingly slow, the silence of the room weighing heavily on my shoulders. I felt a surge of frustration building within me, the urge to take action and do something, anything, to rescue my wife and mother from the clutches of their captors.Finally, the sound of my phone buzzing broke the silence, and I quickly grabbed it, my heart pounding in my chest. It was Camilla, her name flashing on the screen, and I answered it without hesitation."Damien," her voice came through the line, smooth and composed as ever. "I trust you've had some time to think about our situation."I clenched my jaw, my grip on the phone tightening with barely contained anger. "W

Isabella As consciousness slowly seeped back into my mind, I found myself engulfed in darkness. Panic surged through me as I struggled to make sense of my surroundings, the weight of my own fear pressing down on me like a suffocating blanket.My heart thundered in my chest as I became aware of the rough bindings cutting into my wrists and ankles, the coarse fibers digging painfully into my skin. Panic tightened its grip around my throat as I realized the full extent of my helplessness, the stark reality of my captivity crashing down on me with brutal force.Frantic thoughts raced through my mind as I struggled against my restraints, the panic threatening to consume me whole. Where was I? How had I ended up here? And most importantly, where was Ava?A wave of despair washed over me as I realized that I was completely at the mercy of my captors, whoever they were. Tears pricked at the corners of my eyes as I imagined the worst, my mind conjuring up horrifying scenarios of what fate awa

Damien As I strode through the familiar corridors of the office building, my mind raced with thoughts and plans. Natalia's brazen attempts to undermine me only fueled my determination. I had come too far to let her or anyone else stand in my way.But it wasn't just about me anymore. My family – Isabella, Ava, our unborn child – they were my driving force. I would do whatever it took to protect them, to ensure their safety and security. And that meant taking down anyone who dared to threaten what was mine.And now, as I sat there, surrounded by the trappings of power, I couldn't help but feel a surge of determination. I wouldn't rest until the Founder's Association was dismantled until my family was safe until Renaissance was secure.With a steely resolve, I reached for my phone and began to formulate my next move. There was no turning back now. The game was on, and I intended to win. Immersed in the intricate details of my plan, my phone suddenly rang, jolting me out of my focused s

Isabella Chopping vegetables for the lasagna, I couldn't help but feel a sense of comfort wash over me. Cooking had always been a soothing activity for me, a way to channel my thoughts and focus on something tangible amidst the chaos of life.Ava, my ever-supportive mother-in-law, stood beside me, offering gentle guidance as we prepared dinner for Damien. "Now, Isabella, remember to slice the vegetables thinly for the lasagna layers," she instructed, her voice warm and reassuring.I nodded, taking her advice to heart as I carefully wielded the knife. "Like this?" I asked, holding up a perfectly sliced zucchini for her inspection.Ava smiled approvingly. "Just like that, dear. You're a natural," she praised, her encouragement filling me with a sense of pride.As we worked side by side, Ava shared her secrets for creating the perfect steak marinade, imparting her culinary wisdom with the patience of a seasoned chef. "The key is to let the meat marinate for at least an hour," she expla

Damien I was watchful during the conference meeting. I took my time to really look at the board members sitting at the table to see if I could see a member of the Founder's Association but none were seated at this conference. Even Rose St Dumas was not present. Maybe she was preparing her cronies of corrupt businessmen and women for the final show down.Camilla Valdez was also not present but Natalia was. I could not tell what was going on in her head as she gazed at me. If her mother was one of them, did that not make her automatically part of tht fold? Was I over reaching? If the plan with the detective worked, it meant that a lot of people will inevitably get hurt. "What is the profit margin for today?" I asked as I got down to business. "Eight percent since last year," Natalia said in a professional manner. "That's lower than last two years," I said with a frown. "That was due to the Al Vegas controversy," One of the board members said. "You mean the embezzlement," I replied

Damien Returning to the office after the recent turmoil felt like stepping into a minefield, each step fraught with the risk of detonating hidden dangers lurking beneath the surface. As I walked through the familiar halls of Renaissance, I couldn't shake the feeling of unease that gripped me like a vice, a constant reminder of the precarious balancing act I was now forced to perform.Every interaction, every word spoken, had to be carefully calculated and measured, lest I inadvertently reveal the truth lurking beneath the facade of normalcy I presented to the world. I couldn't afford to let slip even the slightest hint of my alliance with Michael, for fear of the consequences it could bring crashing down upon us both.My colleagues greeted me with smiles and nods as I made my way to my office, their cheerful demeanor a stark contrast to the turmoil raging within me. Behind their friendly facades, I couldn't help but wonder who among them could be trusted, and who might be secretly wo
