Stepping into the stage, Ria breathe in, gathering courage and determined to do it. She would not look at the crowd otherwise, she might get shy and ruin everything.She breathe in and began catwalking. Her shoulders raised high and her head, looking straightforward.She began hearing gasps from the crowd as she walk. She braces herself and didn't let it get to her. She has already began and there's no turning back until she walks all the runway."OMG! Who's she!" She heard a scream."She's definitely not human!""She's so beautiful!""Look at her thin waist. Is it natural?""Definitely, it doesn't look fake".Her hips are perfect!"OMG! What's her name!""Is she a new model at Good Legs?""Why are they suddenly using mask, it must be because of her!""Even though her face is covered, I know she looks like an angel!"Damn! She catwalks as though the runway was made for her"."She's definitely better than Cathy! Look at that straight legs and that bikini, I want it"Ria heard all the s
Concluding she didn't hear him well, Ria went back to the dressing room to get her bag. She told Chase she was going back and headed back to the company.Ria knocked at Damon's door and when she didn't hear any response, She opened the door and walked in.He wasn't in yet. Ria wondered where he could be. She saw his car downstairs so if he wasn't in his office, where else would he be."Maybe he's in the room" her darted to his office apartment. Sighing, Ria turned to go but paused when she heard a shattering sound.It seemed to her something broke in the room. She immediately turned to face the door. She heard it again. It time louder. Someone definitely threw a glass against the wall.Mr Damon!" Ria gasped. She rushed the door and pushed it open. Her legs instantly froze as her eyes landed on the floor.The room was in a great mess. Books scattered everywhere. The book shelf was thrown across the room and since it was a glass shelf, it broke into pieces. The coffee table was also br
Walking into her apartment, Ria flunged her bag and slumped to the floor. She was too tired and pained to cry.What would her tears solve? Absolutely nothing. She sniffed and laid down on the cold floor.Couldn't their be a better life for here? Why was her life filled with so much misery and just when she found solace, it all ended even before it started. It's just a week and she had already been sacked. Maybe she really was worthless. It could be nothing good comes out from her.Her phone beeped and taking it out from her pocket, Ria glanced at the message."Where are you?" She read out. It was sent by lady Lizbeth. Ria concluded she had found out already and there wasn't any need to reply her. She made to drop the phone when it beeped again."I heard you have been sacked, why is that?" She wasn't going to answer that either. Lady Lizbeth should better do with her whatever she desired. She had failed her."Come to my house immediately" Another message came in and almost immediatel
After Ria ended the call with Sam, she quickly called Chase and told him about the footage. Chase promised to get it and show to Damon. Ria could finally breathe in some air. It was as if a huge burden got lifted off her shoulders.She made some food and on the process of eating, She remembered her dinner with Fredo Bart.After going through so much trouble because of him, Ria didn't want to go for the dinner. She wanted to even scream at his face and rain insults at him but remembering he knows her secret, Ria might have to go. It doesn't look like she had any choice.She still had a lot of time as it was still afternoon, Ria decided to visit Chloe and know how she has been coping.She dressed up and headed to Chloe's apartment.AT DAMON'S OFFICE...Damon furrowed his eyes at chase."I've told you, I don't want to hear that name again" he warned as Chase asked to talk about Ria's situation."You have to believe me Damon, She wasn't sent by Fredo. Here, this is the footage of their co
Lady Lizbeth sat in her living room with Chase as they brainstormed on how to get Ria and Damon in the same space. Since he was finding it hard to apologize or rather he doesn't know how to, they thought to help him."Why not use your husband's arrival to get them together? Remember he's coming back today" Chase suggested.Lady lizbeth's eyes lit up. "That's true. how come I haven't thought of that?" She exclaimed. It wouldn't be bad to use the excuse of her husband's arrival to get them together. Happy she informed Ria about it three days ago when she visited Damon, lady Lizbeth took out her phone to call her.Ria was folding her clothes into her closet when her phone rang. She handed the cloth in her hand and went to grab her ringing phone. Seeing it was lady Lizbeth calling, Ria swiped the answer button."Good morning ma'am" Ria greeted, placing the phone on her ear as she held it with her shoulder blade. She continued folding her clothes."Good morning porcelain skin" Lady Lizbet
Damon pulled away from the hug when he realized he was going too far. She forgave him, he was happy—yeah. But the hug? Was it necessary?" He thought as he took some steps back.He didn't know what came over him that he had to hug her and also, The disgust he feels around ladies, he didn't feel it when she hugged him back. When her hands covered his neck, he felt a spark run down his system. He had to pull away for his body was beginning to act wierd."I should go now" She mumbled, opened the door and ran out. He let out a deep breath, staring at the closed door.It was a good thing he apologized. It wasn't even as difficult as he thought and even though she hadn't forgiven him, he would have to make her do that.Ria got out of the room and let out a deep breath she never knew she was holding."What just happened in there?" She thought to herself as she glanced back at the door.She couldn't believe he apologized and hugged her. Even though it was a friendly hug, Ria felt a spark she
Ria heaved a sigh of relaxation when the door opened and she saw him standing there, looking shocked. She quickly scrutinize his body for any injuries and when she saw none, she let out a smile. "Ria?" His voice called out— unsure. Ria clutched her nose. He reeked of alcohol. "Have you been drinking?" She found herself asking."A few glasses" he slurred. "Come in" he stepped aside.Ria entered, instantly scrutinizing the house. She was surprised to see everywhere, neatly arranged and without a mess.She glanced back at Damon, who stood, staring at her also.Ria swallowed, she felt stupid for rushing there. Whoever told her he was going to destroy things and even if he does, she doesn't see how any of that should be her concern. What does she tell him brought her to his house at that time of the night?"Uhh...erm... I..." She stuttered, scratching her hair. She was lost of words.I think I should go" she muttered and turned but heard a loud thud. She swiped her head to the side where
"Look who's coming, it's the assistant." Ria shook her head as she heard Brianna's loud voice. It looked like she would be starting her day with Cathy's drama. Ria got closer to them and made to walk pass but Cathy held her back. Snapping her head, "what do you want?" Ria spat. "You...what are you doing here? Weren't you laid off?" Cathy stuttered. Chuckling, Ria snatched her wrist, dusted it as if Cathy's hands were filled with dirt. Peering into Cathy's eyes, Ria smirked. "As you can see darling, I'm back like I never left so if you will excuse me, I have things to do" with that, she walked away. Cathy's angry eyes followed her back but Ria cared less. She wasn't in the mood for silly drama. She has a lot on her mind and not able to tell Damon about herself occupied the largest part. Getting into her office, Her creased brows straightened as she let out a smile. Oh, how she has missed her office. Unpacking her box and placing everything where they belong, Ria couldn't contain h
