Eva casually walked out the event building since she was now done with her mission. Just as she stepped out of the elevator to the parking lot, where she was expecting Nathalia to wait for her. Suddenly her phone began to ring in her hoodie pocket. A small frown graced her face when she saw the caller was none other than Damien. Without hesitation she picked the call. “Hello…,?” She answered the call, her voice sounding low all of a sudden. " I'm waiting for you.” Damien's deep voice spoke on the other side of the phone. " Wait! What is that supposed to mean-” Before she could complete her question a car honk sounded, interrupted her and drew her attention from the phone. The moment she turned her head to the direction, she spotted Damien's car parked a few meters away from her. "Get in." She heard him speak through the phone before hanging up. Eva obediently walked towards the car and boarded it without complaining. She glanced at Damien who hadn't said a word ever since the
Not long after Eva entered the bedroom, her phone began to ring. When she saw the caller was none other than Harry, she quickly picked the call. “Hello?” Eva answered the call and placed it on the loudspeaker while she took off her hoodie sweater she was wearing. "My sweetheart, how are you doing?" Harry's cheerful voice spoke through the phone. “I'm fine but I would be really happy if you didn't just call me for this stupid pleasantries and tell me you got what I asked you to." Eva coldly remarked. " Aii, my darling. You sound so fiesty today.” Harry ignored Eva's cold voice and continued teasing her. “Brother, don't waste my time on such topics like this.” Eva snapped at him, knowing that he won't stop joking around until he is satisfied. " How boring. Anyways, I called to tell you that I've gotten what you needed and I've also sent them to your email. Check it out when you're less busy, I'm sure you'd be proud of me.” Harry finally spoke. " I'm already proud as it is.
It didn't take long before Eva walked out to the bathroom only to see a towel wrapped around his waist. She nearly choked at the sight before but composed herself and stylishly looked away before telling him that she had prepared the bathroom for him.Damien just looked past Eva and a smirk appeared on his lips as he walked past her and entered the bathroom.Thirty minutes later, Eva had changed into her night dress and was patiently sitting on the edge of the bed waiting for Damien who walked out the bathroom in a black bathrobe. He had a towel in his hand which he was using to dry his wet hair.Eva gaze couldn't leave his body, most especially his open chest which the robe didn't cover.“Is my wife having a good time checking her husband out?" Damien suddenly commented. He recalled what happened ten months ago how Eva was staring at his chest too the second day after the one night stand.“Can’t I stare at you? After all, we are married.” Eva retorted skillfully. Though she was a lit
A scowl appeared on Damien's face when he heard her. She made it sound so casual like she had a job to do. He knew that they signed a contract but he felt like she was trying to do her part of the contract quickly even before the five years deadline was up. If that happened, he would lose his chance at getting into her heart and making her open up to him.“You still have years, don't rush into something that won't work. Like I told you, you have to work hard before you seduce me." Damien said.“Then, I'm not trying to seduce you according to the contract. I'm doing this as a wife. We are legally married." Instead of backing down, she confidently stated. “I’m not doing anything I will regret!" "Are you sure? Once I’ve made you mine, you will no longer have the chance to change your mind," Damien said, trying to restrain himself. His deep sexy voice was enough to strike a chord in anyone’s heart putting them into a daze."I am certain." Eva nodded her head confidently. " But it's okay
She had been trying to match his pace but had no idea how clumsy she was. It was obvious that his wife had no experience in kissing and it brought a good feeling to his heart. He had aggressively kissed her earlier when he thought back to how annoying she had been when he usually tried to get her to marry him. However, his anger had subsided, with the thought that she had no experience with kissing. It means that Mark had never kissed, because if he had she should be used to it.“That's enough for now." He quietly said to her after giving her a short peck on the lips."H-Huh?" She opened her eyes and stared at him in daze, unable to fathom his words.“What's wrong?” Eva finally asked, tilting her head to look at him. Her face was blushing attractively."Let’s continue next time." Damien calmly replied, brushing the strands of hair that had fallen out of her bun."Is it that you are not satisfied with me?" She worriedly asked. " I'm sorry if I was unable to match your pace. I was the o
“Just my presence in one event is the one causing all this chaos. How much influence I have in this industry.” Eva muttered, completely proud of herself for what was going on.She grabbed her new cellphone that Damien had bought and given to her a day before the fashion show. She dialed a particular number and after the third ring the phone connected.“Hello." Eva was the one to speak first.“Miss Carter, it's been a very long time since I heard your voice. How are you doing, ma?" A male voice spoke through the phone." I'm very much fine as you already know.” Eva replied, indicating the news about her." Haha, you're as straightforward as ever. I wonder why you're suddenly calling me?” The man laughed upon the way Eva replied to him. He had known this woman for five years and even though they hadn't spoken in a while she was the same as ever. “Aren't you hungry for some stories? I'm sure you're already planning to call me even before I do. Isn't that right, Mr. Cox?” Eva dryly spoke
Meanwhile, at the Carter mansion.In the living room, Laura could be seen sitting on the couch and hugging her daughter Christine and consoling her while Mark sat beside Christine and slowly patted her back as well.Ever since the footage of Christine being at the hospital had been released, reporters from different broadcasting and news stations had started to flood the hospital. Left with no other choice, Mark had the doctors discharge Christine out of the hospital and thanks to his strong and security team, they were able to use.the garage of the hospital to leave the premises. On their way, Christine had told him to head to her family home instead of his mansion, so he had no choice other than to bring here to meet her mother.“Christine, you should have let Mark drive you home instead of bringing you here. You know how everything is in chaos now and Mark can protect you from the media better than you being here.” Matthew, who was sitting on another couch said as he looked at his
Taken aback by the new interrupting voice, everyone turned their attention towards the door and saw Lucien standing by the entrance with one hand tucked in his uniform pants and bag slung over one of his shoulders. He had a completely cold expression on his face as he stared at everyone in the living room. A few moments earlier when the four people were still engrossed in consoling Christine. They had failed to notice the new sound of a car driving in which was none other than Lucien's car. The moment he stepped out of the car and saw a familiar looking car parked outside the compound, he had a disgusted expression on his face. He didn't need to be told who the car belonged to and the owner was the last person he wished to see. “Now I understand why those suspicious looking cars were parked outside." He mumbled to himself, remembering the reporter's van he had caught sight of on his way to the mansion. They would have flooded out the mansion gate by now but because of the hefty l
