Elysia's Pov

I woke up early in the morning, still feeling groggy from the previous night's events. As I got out of bed, I heard Ian's voice coming from downstairs. I quickly got dressed and rushed down to see what was going on.

When I arrived at the bottom of the stairs, I saw Ian sitting at the dining table with a young woman. She was wearing revealing clothes and I could see that she was quite young. I walked over to them, confused and asked Ian, "Who is this?"

Ian looked up at me with a big smile on his face and said, "Mommy, this is my new nanny! Her name is Rachel."

I looked at the woman and asked her, "Who are you?"

"I'm Rachel, your son's new nanny," she replied with a sweet smile.

I was taken aback, I didn't know that Damon had hired a new nanny for Ian. I turned to Damon who was standing behind me, looking at me with a blank expression. "What is going on?" I asked him.

"We talked about it, Ian is still five and needs a nanny till we travel back home. He needs someone t

    Damon's Pov As Elysia's lips touched mine, I couldn't help but feel disgust. I remembered all the times she had cheated on me, and I couldn't bring myself to reciprocate her affections. I pushed her away, and she stumbled to the ground. "Why are you doing this?" she asked, tears streaming down her face. "Why? Because you cheated on me, and now you have the audacity to try and kiss me like nothing ever happened?" I spat out, my anger and hurt consuming me. "I-I don't remember," Elysia stammered, looking lost and confused. "You don't remember? That's even worse! You cheated on me, and you don't even have the decency to remember the pain you caused me?" I couldn't believe she had the nerve to play the victim. "Damon, please, I don't know what you're talking about." Elysia pleaded, her voice shaking. But I didn't care. I couldn't let her play innocent, not after everything she had done. "I can't do this, Elysia. I can't pretend like everything's okay when it's not. You cheated on

    Damon's Pov "She couldn't inform me she was going out?" I could feel the muscles of my heart tightening as anger rush through my nerves. I dialed Elysia's number instantly, placing the phone on my ears but it went straight voicemail. I tried again and again, but there was no answer. "I hope she isn't doing this on purpose..." I muttered angrily as I kept spacing around. I could feel my anxiety rising. If there was one thing I'd hate to happen, is for Elysia crossing part with Hector. The thought of it made my insides turned and I got even more anxious and dialed her number again but to no avail. I paced back and forth in the hotel room, beating muse up about who Elysia might have gone to see... That's right, no other than the reason we are here in the first place! Danica! Quickly, I typed Danica's number into my keypads, she is the only one that can convince Elysia to go out. Since she lost her memories, she've become an introvert- "Danica, it's Damon.

    Elysia's Pov "Get off me!" Damon nudged me to the ground, and I fell on my knees, instantly it turned red. There was bruises and I moaned in pains staring into Damon's eyes. There was a way he looked at me, like I was some monster just let out of the zoo. My teeth gnashed in fury, but not even with my grieving heart could I match up to the detest look on Damon's face. His demeanor as he glares at me, shows the disgust he felt towards me. I didn't understand it! I can't understand it! We are married, but yet he felt a mile away. I could see his love for me in his eyes sometimes, but other time, I mean most of the time, he had only hate for me. It's been just a week since I lost my memories, yet in his presence it felt like I've been treated like a deserted woman for what felt like forever. No memories or recollection, and it was making me frustrated all the more. I want to scream and shout but, my lips kept muting all the time. He stormed out of the room in fury. His steps

    Elysia's Pov I kept staring at the man, he had a sinister look on his face as he pushed me against the wall, trapping me between his arms. "Don't you dare scream," He growled, his breath hot on my face. "Or everyone will believe the rumor that you cheated on Damon. You wouldn't want that, now would you?" Tears welled up in my eyes as I shook my head, unable to speak. I had no idea what he was talking about. But I knew for sure, my body was familiar with his touch! I had no recollection of my past, let alone any infidelity. His grip on my shoulder tightened, causing me to flinch. "Good," he sneered. "Because if you do, I'll make sure Damon never believes a word you say. He'll think you're nothing but a lying, cheating whore." I couldn't take it anymore. I broke down in tears, my body shaking with sobs. He finally released me, watching with a cruel smirk as I crumpled to the ground, calling myself a cheat. I felt lost, confused and alone. I knew I had to talk to Damon and tell

    Elysia POV. The room resounded with the knock from the door. A kind of fear gripped me and I instantly hit Hector on a spot on his neck, successfully tossing him off my body rendering my body lonely of his touch. It didn't matter now though, what was more important was making sure whoever was at the door heard nothing and didn't find out that I was not alone all this while. I smoothed the clothes I was wearing, covering the side Hector had opened while he performed his very wanted assault on me. I walked to the door, after I schooled my appearance and regulated my breathing, I opened the door of the restroom to see Danica standing there with a puzzled look in her eyes. "What have you been doing there?" She asked, trying to peer behind me, possibly to have even the slightest idea of the escapades I had going on. However, I didn't let her. The door was only open enough for her to see my face, though I had fixed my clothes, I still did not want her to see anything, I couldn't risk h

    Damon's POV. Warren rushed downstairs and I could not allow him to leave even for a second without telling me what he meant by those words. However, Alfred was standing there, he was waiting there in the bowling alley and at the moment, it wasn't any concern of Alfred what was going on. I was torn between what to do. Warren was already making his way downstairs and I was too curious, I was burning with anxiety and I needed to quench the fire. I turned to Alfred "I'll be right back, I need to get something from my car". Alfred had a slight confusion on his features but I was not in the mood to iron out that crease. What Warren had said was more important. So without waiting for him to even grunt, much less say anything, I ran downstairs to meet Warren. He waa waiting beside my car and there was no reason to but I still grabbed his arm anxious to know "what is the reason why you said Hector may not be a danger to Elysia?"

I couldn't tell if I was dreaming or this was a reality but I knew at that moment I was feeling things and it was intense. I felt so much anger and so much pain I gad no idea caused. A wail tore through my hearing senses that stunned me. I wanted to turn around to find where that noise had come from. I wanted to know who it was that was crying. I wondered if I coukd provide them help. But I couldn't move. I was confused, baffled at the unfavourable conditions I had found myself. It felt like I was a passenger in a car that was driving itself. Like I knew that it was a car, a vehicle that belonged to me but I could not drive it.

His lips moved like he was going to say something and so I waited to listen to what he wanted to say. "There was no way I could've told you about that" his voice was calm, like the cold water quenching the fire burning in my heart. He looked like his patience was stretched thin but he was trying so hard to not yell back at me. He needed to be the rational one in the room and I was hugging my role quite well. "Why couldn't you?" It made no sense to me, they had told me that Ian was my child and I was married to Damon but they couldn't tell me that I had a child that had died? "You had just had the accident , I didn't want you to be confused and I didn't want to see you hurt any more than you already were" His words touched a place in my heart, I felt my anger subsiding but I didn't want it

    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

"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."

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

"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."

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.

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.
