Maria walked out of her guest room wearing a white body-con dress that barely reached her knees. She walked seductively into the living room of the mansion and met Damian's butler, Mr. James Owen, in the living room.

Mr. James stood there and instructed a maid to prepare dinner ASAP to be delivered to Damian's dining table on the top floor.

"Excuse me, sir. Are you sending the maid to take Damian's dinner to him?" Maria asked, and Mr. James paused and looked at her.

"Yes. Do you want to have your dinner now?" Mr. James asked Maria respectfully as he looked at her.

"No. Let me have the dinner and deliver it to Damian's dining room by myself," Maria said as she moved to meet the maid and took the tray from her hands.

The maid, a young lady, wanted to protest, but she held her tongue as Mr. James replied, "That's fine. You can deliver the dinner, Madam."

Maria smiled and moved over to the elevator. She got inside and went up to the top floor where Damian's sitting room was.

    Jonathan quickly moved over to Alicia's side and said, "Mom, this is my fiancée Alicia Dawson. She is a nurse and works with the university teaching hospital here."Lady Valerie hummed and replied, "I don't care if she is a nurse or not. It's not ideal for you to have a single lady under your roof with you while you both are committing fornication.""Mom..." Jonathan's eyes widened in surprise as he saw Alicia blush and lower her face."Mom, you are embarrassing my fiancée," Jonathan said as he went to stand beside Alicia in the living room.Lady Valerie scoffed and replied, "I am not here for her. I just came here to see you since you said that you want to start living here and to take a proper look at your home.""Alright, Mom. You are free to take a tour. Let me see Alicia off as she is already leaving," he told his mother, and she nodded and went to sit on the couch to rest her tired legs."Goodbye, Ma," Alicia said, but Lady Valerie didn't reply.Alicia frowned as she knew that s

    Samantha never wanted to be jealous of her sister, but she could not help but remember how Damian had told her to her face that he wanted her sister over her."Hmmm," Samantha drove off to her father's house. She was angry, muttering, "How can Damian choose Alicia over me? She is not his type and wouldn't be interested in his money?" Samantha kept her gaze on the road as she arrived at her father's house."I know that I shouldn't be thinking about Alicia like this, but this is not the first time guys chased after her more than me. I just cannot help but wonder why Damian Tucker would pick Alicia over me. I still went to ask him out, and he rejected me, which no guy has ever done."Samantha gripped tightly on her steering wheel as she parked at the front gate of her father's house and honked the car's horn for the gateman to open it. She drove her car into the residence and parked it. Carefully getting out of her car, she picked up her bag and walked over to her father's house. As s

    "What's with the icy look on your face, Samantha? When I advised you not to chase after a man, you refused to listen to me, and now look at you," Lady Jennifer said, and Samantha frowned, taking her seat alongside her mother at the dining table. "Mom, I just thought that Damian would consider me since I want him. But he preferred Alicia, who isn't his type and not his kind of woman. Alicia doesn't go to the club house to attend parties. Why would he want to settle for someone like her?" Samantha pointed at Alicia, and Alicia's eyes widened in shock as she looked at her older sister. Lady Jennifer smiled as she picked up her glass of milk and drank from it to soothe her throat. "You seem to forget that men are like babies; they would want someone who is different from them to take care of their home. It's why your father married me in the first place. He had women who clubbed and hung out with him for fun and the luxury of his kind of work. But he didn't settle for them and came to

    Alicia thought about it and shook her head before she replied, "No, Mom. I don't know who Damian is, and I haven't seen him in person before until he came here and took Dad away."Alicia looked away from her family as she focused her gaze on her food. Clara came out of the kitchen and asked Caden, "Master Caden, should I serve your meal now?""Yes. Let me join my family for dinner," Caden replied with a smile, and Clara blushed and went back to the kitchen. "Alicia, are you saying that you haven't seen Damian for the years that you have been a student nurse? Training and before you got employed at the hospital? You should know that Damian's grandfather is one of the top sponsors at the town's hospital. He owned the hospital and built it to that standard since the government didn't want to do anything about it. It was funded by Damian's grandfather, as I heard, Mr. Summer Tucker. He was the one who built it before it was named the town's teaching hospital. You know the government hosp

    After Lady Jennifer finished her meal, she called Clara and sent her to go to her room on the top floor to bring her phone. Alicia and her siblings patiently awaited their mother’s contact with Jeff on the phone.After two rings, Jeff answered the call, his deep voice asking, "Hello, who is this?"Lady Jennifer was taken aback, as she thought Jeff had her number saved. She quickly cleared her throat and told him, "Hello, this is Mrs. Jennifer Dawson. You took my husband along with your boss the other day when you came to my home."The call was silent, and Jeff asked, "How can I help you, madam? Has your younger daughter finally accepted to marry my boss?" Jeff sounded eager to hear the answer, knowing that Damian was annoyed, especially with the recent attack Maria had directed at Alicia. "No. I mean, I'm calling about Alicia. She complained that she was almost kidnapped today, and I was wondering if your boss was aware of it or if he was the one who sent some men to abduct my daug

    The next day, Alicia woke up in her room and set to leave for work. She had a restless sleep the previous night, and it worried her deeply. In her dream, she saw herself and Damian cuddled up together on a bed. He was kissing her passionately, and in another dream, she was tied up with rope. Her hands were tied together with her legs, and he prepared a whip to flog her mercilessly.Alicia sprang up from her nightmare twice, and she was unable to sleep again, as she surfed the internet and waited for the morning to arrive. She hurried through her bath and later came downstairs to join her family for breakfast.Alicia wore a yellow top and blue jean skirt with black shoes. She looked at her mother, who was alone at the dining table."Good morning, Mom," Alicia greeted her mother, who looked at her and replied, "Morning, Alicia. What happened to your eyes? Were you crying last night?" Lady Jennifer asked, and Alicia shook her head and replied, "No, Mom. I am fine."Lady Jennifer shook he

    Daisy looked at Alicia's face and knew that all was not well with her friend. "Tell me, Alicia, what's wrong with you? Did Jonathan break up with you?" Daisy inquired when they were working on some patients' files.Alicia shook her head and replied, "No. It's not Jonathan.""What happened? Did you get kidnapped or did Maria do something to you?" Daisy asked, and Alicia looked at her friend's face and knew that Daisy cared for her."No, I wasn't. I just had trouble sleeping last night. But I am fine now," Alicia assured her friend, and Daisy looked a bit relieved."It's okay. You shouldn't worry too much. I'm sure that Maria wouldn't attack you again. She might have misunderstood you the previous day. She doesn't come to work today, except Tuesdays and Fridays," Daisy filled Alicia in, and Alicia replied, "I know."Alicia moved out of the counter to check on the patient's blood pressure who was waiting for the doctor to attend to them.An elderly woman was next in line for Alicia to ch

    "Don't worry, babe. I'm working on it," Jonathan told Alicia with a warm smile on his face. She looked at him and decided to believe him and not press further."That's fine. Here's my car key as I cannot drive; I'm tired," Alicia told Jonathan and threw her car key at him. He caught it, got into her car, and prepared to take her home.Alicia got into the car with Jonathan, and he started her car engine and drove to his house.Arriving at a nearby store, Jonathan told her, "Let me shop for some groceries for you here, okay? So that I can prepare something for the two of us, other than going to the restaurant or ordering food.""Okay," Alicia agreed, while Jonathan parked the car at the front of the shop. He got out and went into the shop to shop for some foodstuffs.Alicia sat in the car and waited for Jonathan to return. It was a busy day, the sun was high and shining brightly. Alicia looked around the busy road and the passersby, and she felt a bit better around Jonathan, wondering w

    Damian arrived at his father's mansion and parked his car. It was night, the surroundings were dark, and Damian got out of the car and marched up to the mansion.As he entered the living room, his father sat there and looked at him angrily."Damian, how dare you send Maria Milian away?" Mr. Mark Tucker asked.Damian stood in the living room and looked at his father with an indifferent look on his face."Answer me?!" Mr. Mark yelled, and Damian sighed."Father, I already explained to you that I do not want Maria Milian," he replied calmly, not caring if his father was angry."And who do you want?" Mr. Mark asked, walking up to meet Damian.Damian was silent as the living room turned silent. His stepmother and stepsister sat on the living room couch, looking at him."Answer me?!" Mr. Mark yelled at Damian as he smacked his son on the left cheek.Damian stood unfazed, neither angry nor reacting to his father's slap."Do you want the M-group to launch an attack on our teams?

    "I am going to give her a call tomorrow," Alicia said. Once she was done saying that, she safely kept the card back into her handbag. She dried her body and selected a pajama set and put it on.Alicia finally exited her room and walked into the corridor. She saw her mother climbing upstairs, and she paused and asked her, "Mom, is there still any food left in the kitchen? I am exhausted and hungry."Lady Jennifer looked at her daughter with pity and replied, "Yes. Do you want to go downstairs and get it, or should I send for Clara to bring it for you?""I think Clara should better bring it. I don't want to come across Damian. Why are you not challenging him? Is that how he would force his way into our lives just because Dad owes him money? What happened to giving us time to pay him back until this month ends?" Alicia queried her mother angrily, and Lady Jennifer sighed."Alicia, I understand all you are saying. But right now, we cannot challenge Damian until your father's debt is clear

    Lady Jennifer escorted Damian back to the dining room and offered him a chair."You can have a seat here. Let me check what is available in the kitchen," Lady Jennifer said as she nervously stood beside Damian."Alright." Damian settled on the first dining chair and watched Lady Jennifer walk away to the kitchen door. He picked up his phone and contacted Jax."Send for one of the men to go and get me some of my clothes and also, my laptop," Damian ordered, giving Jax the list of the things he should get for him from his mansion."Alright, Boss," Jax replied, and the call ended.Damian sat at the dining table, waiting as he stole a look around the mansion.Meanwhile, Lady Jennifer walked into the kitchen, and Samantha, who had just finished eating, asked her, "Mom, what's going on? Has Damian left our home?"Lady Jennifer shook her head and replied, "Lower your voice, Samantha. Damian's in the dining room.""What? Isn't he going back to his house?" Samantha asked, as she had heard that

    Samantha, who was in the kitchen with Clara and eavesdropping on the conversation, sighed and went to serve her meal when she saw that Damian was not yet leaving her father's house."Is it safe to go out there?" Clara asked Samantha as she served her meal, afraid of what was going on.The moment Samantha had run into the kitchen had startled Clara."Yes. Well, I don't know, but you can choose to remain here for your own safety," Samantha advised Clara, who nodded.Clara was scared and wondering if she should continue working for the household, but then, the payment was high, and she didn't want to quit her job yet. Knowing that getting a more suitable job that earns more than that was difficult. She went to sit on a chair, waiting and hoping the drama wouldn't escalate.In the living room, Alicia's phone rang, and she picked it up immediately."Hello, John. Where are you?" Alicia asked him, and he told her, "I have arrived at your father's house, babe. But there are some men in black

    In the Dawson family's living room, Alicia struggles to break her hands free from Damian's clutch."Don't touch me!" she yelled at him. But he remained unfazed, looking at her face."Let me go! I cannot go with you?" Alicia yelled at Damian once more."What makes you think you can come here and order me to go with you? You are not my boyfriend, and I don't want to have anything to do with you!" She yelled at him, but Damian smiled and let go of her hand as he became uncomfortable by her closeness."I am only trying to help protect you because I understand what is at stake. But you don't. So I won't sit back and allow anyone to take you away when I can do something to protect you," Damian told Alicia angrily, and she became silent and looked away from him."Well, I don't need your care. I will be fine on my own, and you don't have to tell anyone that you want me because I cannot be with you. Kindly leave my father's house, Mr. Tucker. Besides, you have my father with you.

    Alicia looked from her mother to her sister, and to the door to know who was there."Mom, is Caden back?" Alicia asked, and her mother replied, "No. I haven't even called him yet to know where he is. Why is the gateman calling me?"Lady Jennifer became afraid of who was by the door, and Samantha spoke, "Let me find out, Mom. Maybe Caden is back and who locked the door?"Samantha walked up to the door, but Alicia exclaimed, "Wait, Sama. Let Mom answer her call first."Lady Jennifer picked up the call, and the gateman said, "Madam, that man from the other day is here, and he ordered me to let him in before I can call you.""Who is that?" Lady Jennifer asked, and Samantha went to the door, ignoring her sister's order.As Samantha peered at the door and looked out at the surrounding. She saw that everywhere was dark, and no one was there. However, she looked again, and saw a man standing there, and dread ran down her spine."Mom, I think those men who are after Alicia have come here to ca

    Damian was in his home office when Jax contacted him on the phone."Boss, Grant sent his men to go after Alicia and to capture her," Jax relayed, and Damian immediately rose up from his chair and paced about."He did what? Did he get her?" Damian asked, his voice shaking, and Jax immediately picked up the hint of how obsessed his boss was with a woman who didn't want him.Because of Alicia, Damian interfered with her father's business and also, held her father hostage to get her. Why couldn't he be straightforward with his strategy to get her?"No, boss. They didn't get her...she was with Jonathan and he was fast to navigate the way and escape their target. But I think they will go for her and to her family house. If you don't do something about it," Jax said, and Damian replied, "Alright. I will get to it now."Damian immediately ended the call and exited his office. He went back to his room, grabbed his firearms and picked up his coat and bulletproof jacket.He exited his room, and

    Alicia got into Jonathan's car and asked him, "Is everything alright, babe?"She sat in the front seat with him and he was unusually quiet."Yes," Jonathan replied, his voice lower as he exhaled heavily."I'm fine. Fasten your seat belt. Let's go," he informed her, his voice calm as he buckled up his own seat belt and started the car.Alicia sighed and knew that Jonathan's mood changed when he heard her mention that Damian Tucker wanted her. She exhaled heavily as she watched him drive his car out of his new house.He took a turn and drove back to her father's house.Alicia kept her gaze on the road, oblivious of the car trailing behind them. However, Jonathan noticed it, and hit the accelerator as he sped up."What's wrong, babe?" Alicia asked him, and he informed her, "We are being followed.""What?" Alicia asked and became afraid.Jonathan drove the car at full speed and took a corner as he contacted backup."How?" Alicia asked him, her voice shivering, and the next moment, she hea

    Damian stood at the top floor of his sitting room balcony, looking downward at Grant, who got out of his car to assist his sister in getting into his car."Damian!" Grant yelled as he gazed up at Damian, his voice loud and firm. "This isn't the end of the road. Don't think that you can mess with the Milian's group and go scot-free! I will get my revenge on you!!" Grant shouted, glaring at Damian, who stood there and smirked."I haven't done anything wrong. But I would like to see what you are capable of doing," Damian replied, his voice icy as he peered downward at Grant and Maria.Grant gritted his teeth and gazed away from Damian. He knew that he couldn't launch an attack on Damian in his territory, or rather, inside Damian's mansion."Come on, sister. Let's go," Grant said, speaking to Maria softly as he helped her put her box into his car trunk and unlocked the car door for her.Maria finally got into her brother's car. Her eyes red as she took out her handkerchief and sniffed."I
