Damien never explains his actions to anyone. But Cassy is loyal to his angel. She has his angel's best interest in heart. That's the only reason why he is letting her know that he will never hurt his Angel.
"Rose can try to hurt my Angel. But she can't. I will let her taste her own medicine. You don't have to worry about Rose hurting Eva again. I will never let that happen again. I shouldn't have let my angel go to her parent's place in the first place. It's a mistake on my part. And Rose dared to raise her hand on my angel because I slapped her and insulted her last night. So it's my mistake and my angel was punished for that. I will make up to it" he promised sincerely.
Cassy knows that everything that he just said is true. His eyes are filled with worry and concern for Eva. But their situation is different.
"I know you will protect her. But one day all of this has to come out. What will happen that day? You are to marry Rose and she has to marry Jake. N
"What happened? Why do you look so happy?" Cassy asked with confusion. Eva is smiling from ear to ear, even though her cheek is throbbing. She is so happy. "Look, my fees are fully paid. I think my father was trying to scare me yesterday" Eva showed her laptop screen to her best friend. Cassy's eyes widened with surprise. Damien Bishop's face popped into her mind. She clicked the fee details link and found that her suspicion turned out to be true. Under the last semester fee, it's written that it is paid by an unknown source. All the other semester fees are paid by the Yoke group. But the last semester's fee is paid by someone else. "Don't look so happy. It's not your father. It's someone else" Cassy muttered. She doesn't know how she should feel. Damien Bishop is a lifesaver for Eva. He cares for her and protects her from every harm. But the sad part is, he is Eva's future brother-in-law and her one nightstand. Cassy is happy th
Robert and Patrick shared a puzzled glance. "So you are planning to scare Watson Yoke?" Robert asked Damien. Damien just stared at him without a word. His friends are at it for the past half an hour since the moment Damien revealed what he is planning for Watson Yoke. For some odd reason, they both are finding it hard to take in. Robert and Patrick are shocked to hear that Damien is actually planning to hurt Watson, who might or might not be his future father-in-law. They never thought Evangeline Yoke will become someone whom Damien would come to care deeply about. She will be his future sister-in-law. She is to marry Jake in a few months. They both are not understanding why he cares so much about her. She is a Yoke and she is their responsibility. Damien is not the kind to get driven by his emotions. He is cold and calculating. They never saw him getting so attached to a woman before. He always uses women for only one purpose and would di
She doesn't know what Xavier told the receptionist, but after the phone call, her entire demeanor changed towards Eva. Now the other woman is looking at Eva with curiosity and a hint of fear. Eva was swiftly led towards Xavier's cabin. They used the elevator which is marked as private. Eva noticed all the others are using the other four elevators and no one is using this one. 'It must be only for higher-ups ' Eva thought. The Bishop towers is one of the biggest high raises in downtown. It's entirely made of glass and chrome. It's stylish and practical at the same time. The entire tower is used for all of the operations carried on by the Bishop corporations all over the world. It's like head office to all the branches of the corporation, which are spread across the world. When the elevator reached the 45th floor, the receptionist walked outside and Eva followed behind her, trying to hide her face. To her surprise, there is only one door on the entire flo
Robert and Patrick left soon after they greeted Eva, offered an understanding nod towards Damien.Damien tipped his chin, giving a silent message to start working on what he said about Watson Yoke. They both nodded their heads in agreement and left his office cabin.Eva hid behind Damien until both of his friends left."If they are your friends, then they might be friends to my brother-in-law. What if they tell him that came to see you?" She asked with a panicked voice.The moment she referred to him as her brother-in-law, he became uncomfortable. For some reason, he is not liking that title coming from her mouth. He is trying to find proof about Rose's infidelity. The moment he does, he will call off their wedding. It's one of the reasons why he kept pushing the wedding dates for the past couple of years. And he can easily call off his angel's marriage with Jake. Over the years, he gathered enough proof against him to make their contrac
After they successfully named their relationship, Damien ordered lunch for them. Eva decided to have a vegetable sandwich, as she doesn't prefer eating nonveg much. Damien ordered a chicken sandwich for himself and a strawberry milkshake for Eva, to go with her sandwich.They finished their lunch, all the while chatting about nothing in particular. Soon, he had to get back to his work. As her body is bruised, she too was tired. Unintentionally she dozed off on his couch. Damien noticed her and smiled softly. He covered her body with his suit jacket, before resuming his work.His assistants came a couple of times inside his cabin to deliver some files or remind him of his meetings. When they saw a woman lying on his couch, they couldn't hide their surprise. They have been working for Damien for more than a couple of years. In all those years, they never saw him getting tangled up with a woman before.Damien was always in the news for his ruthless busi
The next morning, Cassy woke up Eva excitedly. "Eva, wake up. You have to see this" Cassy barged into Eva's room with barely contained excitement. Eva woke up with a start when Cassy jumped on her bed, making Eva bounce a little. "Damn Cass, what happened? Why do you look so happy? Give a little warning next time will you?" Eva muttered sleepily. She looked at the time and noticed it's just 6 in the morning. Cassy ignored Eva's words and shoved her laptop into Eva's lap and pressed the 'play button. Immediately Watson Yoke came onto the screen surrounded by reporters. "Mr Yoke, there are so many women who are complaining about the rashes on their skin after using your new cream which was launched a few weeks ago. What do you have to say about it?" One of the reporters asked shoving a mike in Watson's face. "Mr Yoke, not only your beauty brand, but the merchandise bought from your supermarkets all over the country are said t
"Cass, are you insane? Why did you rile Rose like that?" Eva frowned at Cassy once they are inside the safety of Cassy's car.Cassy is still angry. If it's not for Eva, then she would have taught that bitch Rose a lesson today. How dare she talk to Eva like that."I told you they don't deserve your care and sympathy. But you didn't listen. Look at how that bitch is behaving and talking bad about you. They don't deserve you, Eva. I don't know why you insist on being loyal to them" Cassy muttered.Eva looked away from Cassy's inquiring gaze."Because they are my family" she replied softly.Cassy sighed, feeling bad for Eva."I know they are your family Eva. But they are not treating you like family. They are treating you more like a maid or something. They will remember you when they need you and discard you when they don't" Cassy pointed out for the hundredth time.Eva remained silent. She cannot be as cold-hearted as her parents and s
Watson is sitting in the conference room of the Yoke corporation headquarters, holding his head in between his palms. "What the hell is happening? We tested that cream and it was fine when we were releasing it. Now after a month, everything is blowing up and the media is after us and they are trying to find a way to spoil the company's reputation further. We all saw how that cream affected my daughter's face. I need an immediate explanation." he demanded his managers. Everyone is in a state of shock and none of them are understanding what exactly is happening. Like their boss pointed out, they tested that cream before releasing it in the market. They are not understanding what went wrong. "Boss, like you pointed out, we tested that product before we released it. We are not understanding what went wrong. We already informed the production department to stop its production. The marketing department was informed to recall all the delivered products.
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
