Chapter 5.TAKE HER TO MY HOUSE.

Take her to my house!

At sky investment.

A man stood in the middle of the luxurious office. He was a tall, dark, and handsome specimen with a chiselled jawline that seemed to be carved by the goddess herself. He was dressed in a tailored suit that accentuated his impressive build, the fabric hugging his muscles in all the right places. A crisp white shirt and a slim tie completed the look, making him appear every inch the powerful and confident executive.

The man standing was the CEO and founder of Sky Investment... Damian Forbes!

Suddenly, the door to his office burst open, and they ushered Ivy in. As she walked into the office, she couldn't help but marvel at the opulence of the place. It was a sight to behold as she stepped in, but the thought of being in debt of $15 million still bothered her.

When Damian saw her, he couldn't help but chuckle. His debtor was really very much beautiful, as he had thought.

She was around 180cm, with nice curves that accentuated her whole body, even if the delivery clothes she wore didn't do justice to her hourglass body. As she walked into his office, he was about to lose focus, but knowing how much money she owed him, he knew he had to be in his business regalia.

After he walked her out of his office, he felt a little guilty, but the fact that she was owing him a whopping $5 million doesn't still sit right with him. He sat on his plush gold chair and kept his eyes glued on Ivy as she walked out of his office. Actually, he could see everything happening through his laptop in front of him.

He noticed Ivy start to tremble and fall in the elevator, as if she was fainting. This is strange. What was wrong with her? He can't possibly allow her to die in the elevator, that would only increase the negative news around his company.

He quickly called out urgently to his guard, who always followed him everywhere. "Cotti!"

"Yes, boss!" The man responded, always ready to do whatever his boss requests.

He pointed at the elevator. "Go get me that woman there, don't let her waste a second in there!"

"Yes, sir!" Cotti said, and within seconds, Damian could see him carrying Ivy out of the elevator.

"Boss, I think she is an asthmatic patient!" He said through the Bluetooth speakers. "Sir, I think she needs urgent medical care. She is wheezing and losing her breath with each growing second. I don't think she can still breathe."

Damian quickly connected the speakers to one of the medical personnel, who quickly attended to her and took her to the emergency ward, which Damian had built for emergencies like this.

Usually, in most cases, the emergencies that usually happen were simple, domestic injuries, but he knew this was entirely different. Was she having a heart attack or faking it to beg him for more time to pay up her loan?

Few minutes later, Cotti made his way to Damian's office.

"Boss, the lady has been treated, but she is still unconscious. It was discovered that she was an asthmatic patient," he informed him.

Damian thought for a while before saying, "Look here, Cotti, I need you to run a background check on her. Inform the IT guy I need a background check on her within an hour!"

Cotti smiled, "I have already done it, sir!"

Damian wasn't that impressed that his men studied his next move and would do what it was before he even asked. He simply asked, "So what is it? Who is she?"

"Sir, she is the late Mr. Bruce Hall's daughter, but she doesn't live in her house anymore. She lives with her boyfriend for now. She is 25 years of age and aspires to be a fashion designer, but for now, she is a delivery person."

"Where is her boyfriend?" came the question.

"Sir, I'm sorry but we couldn't find that out. However, after going through her phone, we noticed that she just broke up with him. She was even texting her friend about coming over to South America to clear her head."

"So what is she doing here?" he inquired, confused.

Cotti answered, "Sir, I don't know."

"Does she have any close relatives to help her or take care of her?"

"Sir, I'm not sure, but since her parents died, it was said that her uncle took over everything and even chased her out of her father's house. She hasn't been in touch with him for over a year now!"

He stroked his deep, greyish beard as ideas started to form in his brain.

Damian thought for a while before he said, "Good! Cotti, put her in my car right away and call my personal doctor to visit my house now!"

Cotti was confused, but he shrugged and responded in a low voice, "Yes, sir."

He dared not ask Damian why he was making such an absurd request. First, he was taking the girl to God knows where, and now his doctor should visit his house?

However, Leon finally pulled his car to a stop in front of the Sky Investments and angrily slammed the door closed. The fact that Ivy was so audacious to make such a bold move was making him lose his mind, so she had always been smart all these while but only acted dumb to deceive him. Well, she chose the wrong one to mess with because Leon was from the Forbes family.

He quickly made his way into the investments and met a woman who looked like a staff member there. After asking to meet Damian Forbes, he waited in the lobby.

….

Meanwhile, Damian was about to leave when his personal assistant stopped him.

"Sir, your nephew is in the lobby. He has been waiting to see you for the last ten minutes," she said very politely.

He sighed. "Which of them?"

"Master Leon!"

Damian rolled his eyes. He knew Leon doesn't come by just to chit-chat with him, and the fact that he was usually always out of the state, so he could have easily called him, but he picked to come in person. It was a really important one.

"What does he say is the problem?"

The woman responded, "He didn't really say in detail, but he said there was a family meeting tonight at the family house, and he said he needs to see you before you both go back to the family."

Damian had a sly smirk at the corners of his lips. Today was supposed to be the Forbes family meeting. He had never attended one since he grew up to be a man, and today was going to be the first time he would be attending to make his mark. How could he forget such a day?

Actually, he didn't forget. He was just too occupied with taking care of Ivy.

"Tell him I'm not indoors now, and he should meet me at the family house in the next two hours!" He walked away as he spoke.

The woman wouldn't dare contradict his words, so she just bowed and said, "Okay, sir!"

As he left his car, a customised Rolls Royce to his colour and name inscribed on it, he made sure to check if Ivy was comfortable before speeding away.
