Cheating My Ruthless Husband 17. Handsome Stranger
Elysia PovIt's been thirty minutes in the restaurant, yet I felt like I'd been here for about two hours. Company lunch or dinner wasn't my thing. Julia had invited John, an employee of mine she was madly crushing on, and the worst part, John came with two other friends, and one was with a lady.At every chance I got, I looked away and sighed, pouring a drink into my glass every minute. Though I was not too fond of this place, it was better than my home. ..."Elysia, you haven't touched your plate yet?" Julia questioned me. Her lips parted slightly as her gaze traveled between me and my plate.My gape trails the table, and out of five plates served to our table, and only mine was yet to be touched."You don't like it?" Emily asked; she was the software manager."I'm just not hungry." I tried to brush it off, but their demeanor seemed as though they were a bit concerned. To satisfy them, I scooped from the salad on my plate and placed it in my mouth. My eyes twinkled at the deligh

Madeline walked and placed the meal on the table."Have my parents visited?" I asked. I managed to send a message to my mother, letting her know of my state, but Elise caught me and seized my phone.If my parents were trying to reach me, it wouldn't go through."Have they?" I asked again, seeing how quiet Madeline was, leaning to a corner as though I was going to strike her with my fist."No, madam, they never visited." She responded.I knew my father would never, but my mum? I was utterly disappointed."Thank you. You may leave.""Madam, I think you should beg Mr Contreras for forgiveness. He can free you."Madeline's eyes were brimming wi

Elysia PovI was rooted to the spot staring at the gruesomeness brimming in Damon's eyes.Slowly he released his grip on my neck and headed to the door, and David followed behind him.I skid to the floor, hitting my butt on the ground as my eyes well up.How could I not have known that I was pregnant?It better be Damon's.I'd always wanted to divorce him, but now it was clear that divorcing him would do my family no good.He made his point clear.Only death will do us part, and I wish for his....."Mummy, mummy!"I woke up instantly to Becca's pleas.

Elysia pov"I will be travelling today. The kids birthday is in two days, take care of it, like a mother would." His expression was cold, and his words instructive like I was some staff. I sighed raising my brows as rejecting his order was certainly not an option."One complains from the kids and you will hear another terrible news from your family. Did they tell you yet? Your father is now the vice president, when it's proven that child isn't mine, you will only have yourself to blame." His threat were useless to me, this child is Damon's, so I hope."One more thing, I saw how attached you are getting with the kids." He scoffed at me, glaring at me with disgust.I could hear the gnashing of his teeth, grinding the air in his mouth in fury. What else does he have to say now!"I see you are getting close with the kids. I hope you aren't trying to use them as a way out of your prison? Don't you even think for one minute that befriending them would grant you mercy." "They are my kids

The doctor's words send cold shivers through my spine, making me shiver.My eyes widened in shock as I looked through the transparent wall.'I can't believe this! Becca can't be dead!'I mumbled as tears like cascade kept falling from my eyes. How could I have kept the gun on the rattan table?I wasn't thinking. The gun was far from the kid's reach but Becca had climbed a futon. I placed my hand on the frigid wall as I struggled to hold myself back from throwing punches."Becca!"

Elysia's voice shrieked at me and suddenly she her hand struck my face causing the lines of her palm to be visible.Stunned, I kept staring at her.This was a child she never loved.

I could feel the muscles of my heart, tightened as I sprawled to my knees. Tears like cascade falling from my eyes as re call every words she ever said to me.

Elysia's pov Damon turned towards me, his expression still unreadable. "If you want to be the CEO, Elysia, you're going to have to work for it. You'll start as my assistant, and we'll see how you handle the job. If you prove yourself, then maybe we can talk about making you the CEO." I gritted my teeth, my fists still clenched. I couldn't believe that he was making me jump through all these hoops just to prove myself. "I don't need your help, Damon," I spat out, my anger boiling over. "I can do this on my own. I don't need you to hold my hand and guide me through everything." Damon's lips quirked up in a small smile. "Is that so? Well, then. I guess we'll see how well you do on your own." He walked towards the door, turning back for a moment to add one final remark. "But just remember, Elysia. This is my company as much as it is yours. And I won't let you ruin it." I watched him leave, feeling a mixture of anger and frustration. I couldn't believe that Damon was making things so

Elysia's pov "I can't believe you're doing this to me, Damon!" I yelled, my frustration and anger mounting with each passing moment. "You know how hard I've worked to build up that company, and now you're telling me that I'm not fit to take over? That's complete bullshit!" Damon's expression remained calm, but I could see the hint of irritation in his eyes. "Watch your language, Elysia," he said firmly. "You're not doing yourself any favors by acting like this." I didn't care. I was too angry to care. "You know what, Damon? Screw you!" I spat, my voice rising with each word. "Screw you and your stupid mother! She've been trying to steal my company for months, and now you're using my memory loss as an excuse to take it away from me. You've taken over my family's company, and now you are doing this to me as well. Well, I'm not going to let that happen." Helen, who had been standing beside Kylian, stepped forward, her face twisted in anger. "You're lying, Elysia," she said, her voice

Elysia's pov "Take the money and move," he said, his voice shaking. I felt my heart pounding in my chest as I took the bag and slowly backed away. The man followed me, his gun still trained on me. As I spun to my right, and I saw his car parked just a few yards away. He motioned for me to follow him, and I complied. We walked in silence, the only sound being our footsteps and the occasional sound of a car passing by. When we got to his car, he opened the trunk and told me to put the bag inside. My hands were shaking as I tried to lift the heavy bag. Suddenly, I felt a sharp pain in my leg. I looked down and saw a gunshot wound. I stumbled, trying to stay upright, and the bag fell to the ground. "Come on, hurry up!" he shouted. I struggled to pick up the bag, feeling the blood soaking through my pants. Eventually, I managed to place the bag inside the trunk. I turned to face him, my eyes blurry with tears of pain and fear. But then, something strange happened. The man was lying

Damon's pov My heart skipped a beat as my father rushed into the room with a gun in his hand. I had never seen him so unhinged before, and it scared me. "Father, put the gun down," I said, trying to keep my voice calm. "This isn't the way to handle things." But my father was beyond reason. He pointed the gun at Quincy, his eyes blazing with anger. "You'll pay for what your father did to me!" he shouted. I could see the fear in Quincy's eyes as my father took aim, and I knew I had to act fast. I lunged forward, grabbing my father's arm and trying to wrestle the gun away from him. "Stop it, Father!" I yelled. "This isn't the answer!" But my father was too strong for me, and he pushed me away with a fierce shove. I stumbled backwards, watching in horror as he pulled the trigger. The sound of the gunshot echoed through the room, and for a moment, everything was still, as my father shot at the roof. I felt sick to my stomach as I realized what had just happened.

Damon's pov It was morning, and Elysia looked radiant as she sat at the breakfast table, sipping her coffee and nibbling on a croissant. But even as I watched her, something nagged at me, deep in my heart. Had she remembered? Had she figured out what I had done? As she rose from the table and headed upstairs to change, I took a deep breath and tried to shake off my anxiety. But when she reappeared, dressed and ready to go, my nerves were still on edge. I tried to put on a brave face as we headed to the living room, where our son Ian was playing with his toys. But I could feel the tension between us, and I knew that something was off. As I settled onto the couch, my phone beeped with a new message. I glanced over the screen, and my heart skipped a beat. It was from Julius, "Quincy Randolph, is at the transportation company, he held an open meeting. Where are you?" My eyes turned red with anger. How dare he? How dare he try to steal my company out from under me? I stood up, my

Elysia's pov As I drove down the road towards the beach Helen had picked, I encountered heavy traffic. The cars moved sluggishly, causing me to feel restless and anxious. I kept checking the time on my dashboard, hoping I wouldn't be too late. Finally, I reached the beach, and as expected, Helen was already there. She had parked her car and was waiting with a big bag by her side. As I parked my car beside hers, I noticed that the beach was empty, with no one around except for us. It was just afternoon, and the sun was shining brightly, casting a warm glow on everything around us. I got out of my car and went over to Helen, feeling curious and a little apprehensive. "Hey Helen," I said, "where are the company documents?" Helen looked at me with a strange expression on her face, and then suddenly went down on her knees. "Elysia," she said, "I can never hand over those documents to you." "What?" I said, feeling stunned. "What are you talking about?" Helen opened her bag, and my eyes

Elysia's pov We were so excited but then, we excitement quickly fades as I realizes that they will need to open the safe. I takes a deep breath and looks at Macy with a worried expression. "I don't know how to open it. Maybe my fingerprint will work?" I suggests, beginning to stamp my fingers all over the safe. Macy shakes her head, "I don't think so, it's probably not set up to recognize anyone's fingerprints but the owner's." My heart sinks as I realizes Macy's words are true. I give up, tears forming in my eyes as I contemplates the idea of forcing a memory I might not even remember. Macy notices my distress and quickly thinks of a solution. "Instead of that, let's try all birthdays. We'll start with your parents and sister, then move on to Kate's brother, Adam, Damon, and Ian." I nods and they begin trying all possible dates, but the safe remains locked. Frustration builds up as they try over and over again. My anxiety worsens with each unsuccessful attempt.

Elysia's Pov "I don't know what you're talking about, Damon," I say, my voice shaking with fear. "Please, you have to believe me." Damon looks intrigued by my denial, and for a moment, I think he might let me go. But then he shakes his head and releases his grip on my arm. "Fine," he says, his voice cold and distant. "Go." I rub my wrist slightly, trying to ease the pain where his fingers had dug in, before turning and walking slowly out of the room. Once I'm outside, I break into a run, my heart pounding in my chest as I race towards my car. I can feel the fear gripping me as I drive out of the villa and onto the street. My hands are shaking on the steering wheel, and I find it hard to catch my breath. As I drive across the bridge, my mind is a blur of emotions - fear, anger, and confusion all mingling together. And then, suddenly, I can't take it anymore. I pull over to the side of the road and jump out of my car, gasping for breath. I stand there on the bridge, the wind whipp

Elysia Pov I felt a lump in my throat, as though I had always suspected that Helen had a wild side, but I didn't want to believe that she would sleep around with anyone. "Do you have any proof?" I asked hesitantly. Macy then said, "Actually, Elysia, you secured pictures of Helen with some guys a while ago. Don't you remember?" I shook my head, feeling a wave of confusion wash over me. "I don't remember that, Macy. You know I lost my memories." Macy sighed and said, "That's right, I forgot. Look, Elysia, let's go to the office tomorrow, and I'll help you go through all the files and paperwork. We'll see if we can find any evidence of what Helen is up to." I nodded slowly, feeling grateful for Macy's help. "Thank you, Macy. I don't know what I would do without you." Macy laughs, "You don't have to thank me, Elysia. We're friends, and I'll always be here for you, no matter what." "Macy, I talked to Helen earlier, and I threatened her. I told her I wanted the company, but she said s
