"You do know that being my maid makes you my property and I can do whatever I want with you." He put a finger to her chin and tilted her head upwards. "Anything I want ..." She looked at him trembling. These days she had spent with him were scary. He truly was the devil. "I'm not your toy", she managed to say. "According to my contract, you are...", he said dangerously. She was dealt the wrong cards. She is already in a world of pain. Her body ached terribly. He grabbed her bruised body and dragged her... Lilian Mendez picked pockets for a living. She did whatever she needed to do to survive. Life was tough so she had to be tougher which meant making tough decisions. After a failed attempt at stealing from the wealthy at a luxurious gala event, she finds herself the property of Mr. Damian Richards, the multi-billionaire businessman, a handsome yet sour personality, and a no nonsense man. He was every girl's dream. Every girl lusted and drooled over him but he never looked their way. He them. He had no time for love. Lilian becomes his maid to make up for stealing from him. She hated everything about him. He was just another arrogant, rich moron. Men like him were only good for their money and nothing else. She wanted nothing more to do with him than to hopefully get out of his place in one piece. She was nobody's toy or plaything. However, over time, boundaries are broken and feelings are shared and grown. Is Lilian finally the woman to tie this eligible bachelor down or is it all a play to get rich off him?

Damian hadn't come to see her again and she asked Dr. Gray to take her home.Noon came and Dr. Gray signed her discharge papers and he took her to his car. She was weak but she managed to walk on her own. She got into the passenger's seat and Dr. Gray was at the wheel."Are you ready?" he asked her."No."Dr. Gray exhaled."Damian really has changed. For the better you know. He has been coming to therapy with me.""Can we just go?"Dr. Gray revved the engine and soon, they were on the road. Each mile they covered filled her with anxiety. She was nervous and unsure of her decision. They soon got to his place and the guards opened up. Gray drove into the compound and they were very surprised to see her. They had thought she died.They walked to the door but before they could knock, Damian opened the door. He
Chapter 120It was rolling into the third week and Damian went to see Lilian every day after work and then he would have therapy sessions with Dr. Gray. Rosé saw him constantly at the hospital and soon, they were able to smooth things over.The business was rising steadily and they had managed to secure the number two spot. Adam was really putting in a whole lot of effort and if he hadn't been on the ground, Damian would have been dirt broke.Every day, he felt his heart plummet. Lilian hadn't woken up yet. Damian was at work and was in a very important meeting. He had managed to get his investors back and was in a presentation, made by Adam about how they could increase company profits. The reactions were positive and there were a lot of nods. Things were actually going very well.Damian listened to Adam as he spoke and was very impressed with him. His phone soon rang and interrupted the meeting. All eyes were on him."I am so sorry. "He pulled out his phone and saw that it was Dr.
Chapter 119For an entire week, Damian couldn't go to work. he was home, a drunken mess. Adam was calling every day but he paid him no attention. He just wanted to be left alone. He had gone to the hospital every day of the week but he was never let in. Dr. Gray had told the security personnel to turn him out if they saw him. He feared the worst for Lilian. He didn't know how she was doing, whether she was dead or alive. He sat at his wine cabinet and took another swing of liquor. He e was dead drunk. He still hadn't found his briefcase and had questioned all the maids about it but none of them knew where it was. He was miserable. He took another swing and fell to the floor. His senses were all muddled. Everything in the room began to spin. Every now and then he would see a figure that looked like Lilian but when he rubbed his eyes, it was a coat or chair. Sometimes he would see Antonio but the smile on his face was a frown that intensified his guilt. Camilla had called a couple of
Chapter 118Lilian was in her room sobbing into her pillow. Her head ached and her body was weak. Suddenly, the door busted open and she saw a furious Damian at the door glaring at her. He looked around her room, throwing her things to the floor and pulling her drawers wide open."Where is it?!"Lilian was confused. Where was what? Damia looked at her and she was ill. Her eyes were only glistening with tears but he didn't care. He walked up to her and grabbed her long black locks and yoinked her out of bed. Lilian felt her scalp in terrible pain. She was dragged to Damian's room and he threw her roughly on the floor. She hit her face on the polished tiles and her lips began to bleed."Where is it?! Where the fuck is my briefcase?! You were the only one that saw me open it you keep it in my wardrobe. You are the only one that knows what is inside it!"Lilian began to cry. She had no idea where it was. She hadn't taken it."I don't know," she said amidst tears and sobs."Domain grabbed
Chapter 117The weekend was short. Sunday was busy for him and so was Monday. Tuesday rolled in and Damian was getting ready for work. He hadn't seen Lilian all weekend. She stayed clear of him and out of his sight. She only came out when she was sure that he had gone out or in the middle of the night to get something to eat when she was sure that he was asleep. He wasn't bothered, as long as she wasn't in his way, he was fine with it. His meals were made by his maids and they honestly did a good job though none of them were official chefs. He had put his search for a new chef on hold. It seemed he had bad luck with them. They were either crushing on his women or dying for some reason.Rosé was still mad at him for whatever reason and she was still giving him her sour attitude. He had released their pay cheques and was in his office enjoying a game of solitaire.Adam texted him. He was really grateful for the little increase in his already massive pay. He smiled at the message and co
Chapter 116Camilla and Damian were at it till late in the evening. Camilla was terribly worn out and Damian lay beside her equally breathless.She turned to him but he gave her no attention."So, what changed your mind? I thought that you were intoxicated with your sweetheart"Daman continued to stare at the ceiling."You can leave now."Camilla wasn't offended in the least. She knew Damian quite well and that this was how he worked but it was good enough for her. She had had wild nights with Sean but this night had to top all of them by the largest margin.She got up from bed and picked up her clothes and got dressed. Damian watched her and the entire time, she had a smirk on her face. Soon she was dressed and she picked up her handbag."I had a spectacular time Mr. Richards. I hope we can do this again."She winked at him and left his room. Damian took a deep breath and ran his hand through his ravaged hair. He looked at the clock and saw that it was quite late. He had asked his dr
Chapter 115Lilian was home alone and she was looking through his cookbook. She had asked the maids not to bother about breakfast for her and soon they left after the chores for the day were done.She wanted to make breakfast for herself using Antonio's cookbook. She saw a recipe for waffles and she was instantly down to try. She found some waffle mix and the waffle maker and set to work.She enjoyed herself while she was making the meals. She felt like the book was her only connection to Antonio. Whenever she used it, she could hear his voice gently guiding her to his thick italian accent. She wondered if Anna felt that way when she was at home.Soon, she was done but it was missing the berries. She wondered if the berries in the garden were ripe. She took a little basket with her and headed out the front door. She saw Dean and Dylan having an arm wrestling match. They stopped as soon as they saw her. Dean looked away a bit and Dylan noticed and stifled a laugh."Wher are you off to
Chapter 114Damian came home late and he found Lilian in the living room with the television on enjoying a bowl of pasta. He could smell the food and it smelled just the way that Antonio used to make it."How did you get that?"Lilian was started by his presence. She didn't know that he was home. She didn't even hear the car drive in."Anna came by and she brought me Antonio's cookbook. So I followed the recipe and made his famous spaghetti."Lilian was smiling. She hoped that Damian would like to have some. It would probably cheer him up but he simply gruffed and headed upstairs. Lilian was alone. she took a deep breath and continued watching her show. She was uninterested now and she sat there staring at the television and she couldn't hear a thing they were saying. Her phone beeped beside her. She picked it up and saw that it was a message from Rosé "I hope you are okay. I didn't see you at work today."Lilian smiled sadly. Rosé seemed to be the only person that was checking on he
Chapter 113Damian walked in and he seemed very angry. Lilian was nervous and she swallowed hard when she saw him. Rosé saw her fear and held her hand reassuringly.Damian looked from Rosé to Lilian. Rosé stared back at him unafraid. Damian looked at the pair and headed upstairs. Lilian breathed and Rosé looked really nervous and scared for her."Are you sure that you want to stay here? My offer is still open. You can stay with me."Lilian nodded."I'll be fine."Rosé couldn't force her and she stood up and left. Lilian sat at the dinner table unsure of what to do. She was terrified and scared. She finally decided to head back up to her room. As soon as she got upstairs, Damian called her."Come here. Now."She walked to his room and closed the door behind her. Damian was at his wine cabinet, drinking.She stood looking at him."I don't need you at work anymore. You can stay home. The maids will be brought back and you can stay at home. Now leave."Lilian left and didn't look back. Sh
Lilian walked down the busy streets of New York. It was raining and she was already soaked all the way through. Nights like this weren't strange to her. It was on nights like this that business was always booming. Lots of people standing in clusters, to get out of the chilling rain. She headed into a bar. The music blared loud to an almost deafening pitch. Perfect! Business was in session. She sat at a table, hoodie up, eyes sharp, looking for a perfect target. While she searched around, she ordered."One dirty martini.""Dirty martini. You want that with lime or on the rocks?""On the rocks."The bartender got to work. She peered through the crowd and finally found her target: a rich, unsuspecting lady, probably in her mid-thirties, dancing at the far corner of the club. "Your martini, ma'am."She took the glass and downed the contents in one gulp. She paid the bartender and proceeded to make her move. As soon as she got up from the seat, she was pestered by a drunk fuckboy."Hey t
