Eva looked at him with shock, her mouth agape.
"Oh? Now it's my fault? I pointed out the fact. How would I know about your caveman tendencies? I thought if I pointed out the facts then you would actually understand where I am coming from. But instead of that, you did something which I was not expecting at all. Who would marry a sleeping girl? It's completely insane and unreasonable" she fired up.
Damien is actually enjoying her angry ranting. She really acting like his wife. They look like a married couple who fights about small issues. A smile slipped from his lips, which caught Eva off guard.
"Why are you smiling like that? I am not praising you. This is not funny Damien" she said with confusion.
His reactions always confuse her. She read that he is cold and calculating. His face is a blank mask, which always puts his opponents on edge. No one could guess what he is thinking and how he would react to a certain thing.
Eva now understand
Eva couldn't believe that Rose could go to that level to destroy her. Rose is vicious and a jealous person by nature. But Eva cannot believe that she could become evil and try to destroy her own sister like this."I don't believe you. Rose cannot do these kinds of things. You are just trying to turn me against my family" Eva protested. But at the back of her mind, there is a small speck of doubt that has been planted. Eva has seen it herself how cruel Rose can be. She tore Eva's clothes and pushed her out of the mansion in the middle of the night. Eva thought Rose couldn't go any farther from that. But based on Damien's words, she cannot help but think otherwise. Damien already married her. So he doesn't have to lie to her further to prove or gain anything from her. She already belongs to him. Just his touch would make her melt in his arms and give in to the pleasure of his touch. So he doesn't have any reason to lie about Rose or anyone el
After the painful revelation of the betrayal of Rose and her father, Eva cried herself to sleep. Damien slowly drove them towards his mansion and carried her towards the room, which they are going to share soon.He laid her down on the bed and covered her with a blanket. He dialed her friend's number to inform her that Eva would be staying with him tonight. He washed up a little and changed into his track pants and a t-shirt.Just when he was about to turn on his laptop to do some work, he received a call from the personal investigator he hired to follow Rose and Jake."Ryan" Damien answered the call.He slowly slipped out of the room, so that he wouldn't disturb Eva."Sir, I have a rather disturbing news about Jake," his PI Ryan Carter said.Damien frowned."What is it?" Damien asked with a frown."On his way back to the city, Jake found a small-town girl from the nearby town. She was alone and her car broke
"I planned for your future and you ruined it single-handedly" she snapped at Jake. Jake became defensive. "It's not my mistake. Rose came and riled me up against Eva. I got angry when I learned that she dared to have an affair with Damien. So I just helped her with her plan. How would I know that Damien would come and ruin everything?" Jake explained defensively. Cassandra glared at her son. "When will you learn? Rose being a woman she acted smart and used you for her dirty works. But you? You are an idiot who got riled up for unnecessary things. Even if Eva is having an affair with Damien, what are you going to lose? She is not permanent in your life. Just like your first wife died, she would have died after a year or so. Until then you should have your fun and kill her when the time is right. But look at what happened now? You ruined everything" She scolded him. Jake made a sour face and began to sulk on the couch. "Now what do
Damien could feel Eva's eyes on the entire time. She never looks at him like this if she finds out that he knows that she is looking. He wants her love and affection. He wants her smiles and tears. He wants her as a whole period. There is nothing about this woman which he would change. She is absolute perfection born specifically for him. He wouldn't have found a more perfect woman than her if he searched himself. She wrapped him around her little finger since the moment he saw her the first time. He didn't have any clue how deep she is burying herself in his heart. But he never regretted a thing. She is his and that's all. Soon he will make her love him the way he loves her. He will let her know that he married her because he loves her more than anything in the world. She is it for him and there is no one else he would want to spend the rest of his life with. He could feel her unwavering gaze on him. And he is enjoying her interest, no matter how small it is.
After dinner, Eva and Damien sat near the pool. Eva kept sneaking glances at Damien, while Damien was taking an important business call. She always knows that he is very handsome with an angular face, high cheekbones, aristocratic nose, kissable lips, and an arrogant chin. His hair is neatly trimmed near the sides and back, leaving the hair in the middle a little bit longer. His hair is combed to one side. He is over 6'2. He is toned without an ounce of fat on his perfect body. He is not too muscular, but his lean muscles are not for show either. The way he smashed his powerful fists into Jake and his friends, giving them what they deserve, it's telling her that he works out regularly. He is not lazy by any means. He is determined and goes for anything that he sets his eyes on. That includes her as well. After the way he explained to her how important she is to him and how he sees her with his eyes, she is moved. Her heart which is bruised with the betrayal o
When Damien began to share his past, Eva was shocked. He is giving her a glimpse of his vulnerable years. He is opening himself up and giving her a glimpse of him being out of sorts. Opening up to a man like Damien is not easy. But he is doing it anyway. He is trying to make her feel relaxed and telling her that everyone is not perfect. Everyone has up's and down's in their life. He is inviting into every aspect of his life. He is showing that he didn't just marry her out of anger, It's more than that. "When I was in my senior year, my father was admitted to the hospital. He got into an accident and was critically injured. Cassandra and Jake went on a holiday leaving him alone. That day, when I saw him lying on the hospital bed alone, with so many pipes inserted into his body, I decided to take everything into my hands. That day I understood he is trying to cope up with my mom's loss the way he could, just like me. He is not a bad man by any means. I stayed by
The next morning, Rose woke up with a heavy head. She looked at her surroundings and groaned with distaste. She looked beside her and noticed that she is alone in the room. She noticed that she is naked and sore between her legs. Immediately she understood what must have happened last night. 'Damn, I slept with him again?' She thought and twisted her face into a grimace. She has been trying not to get mingled up with Jake for a couple of years now. If Damien finds out about this, then there is no way he would be interested in marrying her. He is reluctant to marry her now. He didn't even let her touch him. If he finds out that she spent her night with Jake again, then he would definitely try to break the contract and live happily with Eva. Rose will never let Eva live a happy life. Rose detests Eva with a vengeance. No matter what happens, Rose cannot let Eva live with Damien. Rose is sure that Damien will never settle down with a pr
Eva is sitting in her class, but no matter how much she is trying to concentrate, she couldn't. Her mind refuses to process a single word her professor is teaching them. Where ever she look, she is seeing Damien there. After his confession last night, it's as if her mind is short circulated. She didn't respond to his confession, which he doesn't seem to mind. In fact, he is confident that he would make her fall for him and soon. With the rate he is going, she is sure he will fall for him. His late-night confessions, him opening up to her. Them sharing their most troubled past. He is doing everything right and his efforts are genuine. "Eva" Cassy hissed from beside her, snapping her out of her daze. Eva looked at Cassy, only to find her professor standing right beside her desk. "Miss Yoke, if you are not interested in my class, then you can go out" he glared at her. Eva cringed with embarrassment. "I am sorry Mr Martin" she
After five years... "Uncle Matt" little Elena called her uncle excitedly. Matt looked at his cute little niece fondly and sat on his knees to match her height. "What is it my sweet little Elena" he asked feigning an equally excited voice. Elena ran towards her uncle closely followed by an annoyed Adrian. Matt hugged her and kissed her head lovingly. "See what my dada gifted me for my fifth birthday" she pointed towards a small pony which is suitable for her age. Matt looked at the pony with a grin. "Damn, your dada is something else" he let out with a grin. Elena looked at Matt with her eyes wide open. "Uncle Matt, you just used a bad word" she whispered as if it's a big sin. Matt shook his head and kissed her on her chubby cheek and chuckled. "Sorry, my dear. Uncle Matt will never repeat that again" he promised. Elena nodded her little head with approval. "Elena, uncl
After Damien and Matt heard the doctor's words, they both jumped up and down with joy like little kids. They ignored the curious looks of the people around them. "Congratulations Brother in law. I am so happy for you both. You both are going to become parents " Matt gave Damien a bear hug. Damien returned the gesture with a broad grin on his face. "Thank you, Matt, and congratulations to you too. You are going to become an uncle as well" Damien said happily. Matt and Damien laughed with barely contained excitement. Soon they both became sad when they thought about Eva. "This should be the happiest moment of your life. You are supposed to share this happiness with my sister. But now.." he stopped abruptly. His eyes tingled with tears and his throat closed up. Damien nodded his head and turned away from Matt. His eyes became moist with sadness. Both the men returned to their seats outside the hospital room, waiting for
"The day she leaves me is the day of Damien Xavier Bishop's date of death" Damien declared firmly. Everyone standing inside the hospital room are left with shock. After his declaration, no one dared to utter a single word of protest. The doctors quietly left the room, leaving only Robert, Patrick, Alexander and Damien. Alexander looked at his son sadly. Robert and Patrick looked worried for their friend. They can see where this is going. The doctors are confident that she might never recover. That means Damien will forever be this way. Sitting beside her bedside with a vacant expression in his eyes. Damien quietly sat on the chair he was sitting early. He ignored the others in the room. He held Eva's cold palm with his warm one. He is looking at her face with a heavy heart. "These people think that you are More. But I know better. You would come back for me, don't you? You will not let me take my life, will you? You know I cannot live without you" he
Alexander took a deep breath before unfolding himself out of his car. Just like he expected, he was instantly surrounded by eager reporters. His hired bodyguards began to make way for him and he walked inside the hospital with his head held high.'Sir, how do you feel about miss Mia''Were you really drugged?''You are going to be a father at this age. How are your feelings?''You spent a night with a young and hot model. How was your experience?'Alexander planned to ignore the media, but the last question infuriated him. He stopped in his tracks and turned towards the female reporter who asked that question. He looked at her employees id and read her name out loud."Melissa turner" he acknowledged her by her name.All the other reporters pushed their microphones closer to Alexander and were eagerly waiting for his reaction."Miss Turner, before I answer your question, will you answer one of mine?" Alexander asked
Damien is sitting outside the ICU. Eva is lying on a bed inside the ICU. She is breathing with the help of life support. Matt is fighting for his life just like his sister. Doctors are not very hopeful about their situation. "They inhaled too much gas. It paralysed their system. We gave them the antidote to fight the effects of that poison, but so far it is not looking good. We cannot say anything until 48 hours. Let's hope for the good Mr Bishop" the good doctor said 5 hours ago. That was last night. Just like every other day, the moon has gone down and the sun is shining brightly in the sky doing its work and so does the people around him. But Damien is stuck in a trance like state. He stopped living the moment he saw his angel lying lifelessly on the staircase. He couldn't see or hear anything since then. She is the only thing that matters, and she is fighting for her life inside the ICU. By the time he rushed home, he found Matt and Eva lying on the
"Do you still think we have a future together?" his question made Mia think properly. When she was using Alexander, all she thought about was marrying Damien. She acted out of anger and frustration. She wanted to become Mrs Bishop, and she didn't think beyond that. Now his question made her think. And what she realised is not pretty. She turned to face him. Her eyes are misty. "I was in love with you since we were young. I always thought that we could marry each other and have a happy life together. But you had to sign a contract with the Yoke's. As a close family friend, I know the importance of that contract. It's an age of tradition and I thought you wouldn't break it for me. So I accepted my fate and left the county. But then I found out you married another woman whose second name is not Yoke. So I came back to see what is so special about her. But by the time I came here, she left you. I could see how much you love her. I became jealous. So I delib
As soon as Mia heard his words, she smiled with happiness. "Why are you not angry or sad? I thought you would be fuming with anger the moment you found out that I poisoned her. But strangely you are calm and quiet. What is more shocking is that you are actually talking to me. It's a miracle" Mia shared her observation with a big grin. Damien should act more carefully now. He cannot reveal much more than he should. So he simply gave her a half-smile. Mia is not satisfied with his response. She frowned at his odd behaviour. She looked around them and found it empty and quiet. She turned back towards Damien, who is yet to look at her. "Your behaviour is odd. What is going on Damien? Are you planning something? Is that why you called me here. This place is far away from the city. No one would come here at this time. Are you planning to kill me?" she asked warily. Fear is evident in her voice and face. She was so happy when he called he
"We can use this video recording and Doctor William's statement to prove that Mia is lying" Patrick pointed out. Robert is driving the expensive limited edition car. Damien sitting in the passenger seat and Patrick occupied the seat in the back. They are driving back from the Doctor's house. The night sky is pitch black, indicating that it is a new moon day. It's 12.30 am and they are yet to figure out a way to deal with Mia. They are trying different scenarios to deal with her, but nothing is working out so far. "We can use the doctor's confession if she doesn't have a video recording of that night. The moment she releases that video, it's game over for us" Damien pointed out. Patrick grunted with frustration. "Do you think she will release the video? She will also lose face if that comes out. That will be the end of her career. I don't think she would want that to happen" Robert pointed out. Damien snorted. "She lost he
Doctor William is the Bishops family doctor for over two decades. He is in his early 50's. The grey hair peppered on his head indicates his age and experience. But the fear in his eyes is something Damien has never seen before. It's the indication he wants to confirm that the doctor is indeed a corrupted one. "It would be better if you reveal everything by yourself. You know very well how it would be if I had to make you reveal it all" Damien said coldly. Damien is sitting on the couch flanked by Robert and Patrick on either side. William is standing opposite them. He is shuffling uncomfortably from side to side. His forehead and upper lip is beaded with sweat. He is looking at Damien with fear. He never thought this would come out at all. As the given DNA matched with Damien's DNA, he thought he could cover what he did. But looking at the coldness surrounding Damien Bishop, he is scared that he might freeze to death if he doesn't agree with what
