Damien came out empty-handed in his quest of searching for Eva near the venue. He gave up his search and decided to go check on her near her home. He needs to talk to her before it's too late. With that intention in mind, he walked away from the venue, towards the parking lot.
On the other hand, Matt and George who came to attend the wedding noticed that Eva is leaving. So they decided to follow behind her so that she can cool down a little and think for herself. But when Matt saw a speeding truck going directly towards his twin sister, he ran towards her.
"Eva, move" he began to yell so that he could attract her attention.
Eva is startled when she heard Matt's voice. She looked up and saw him running towards her with panic written all over his face. He is looking at something behind her. She frowned and turned her head. Her eyes widened as she noticed a huge truck, which is only a few meters away from her.
She is so shocked, that she forgot to
Eva glared at Mia. This is the woman who made Eva almost ruin her own married life by creating misunderstandings between Eva and Damien. Like the fool she is, she fell for the deceiving tricks of Mia and ran away from the man who loves her more than himself. "I am pregnant with Damien's baby. What do you think I should do? In this situation, you should divorce Damien, so that I could marry him and give a father to our child. Don't you think?" Mia asked with a smug smile. Mia is testing if Eva realised that she is lying or not. She is prepared for both scenarios. Eva shook her head. "Stop acting will you? What do you want? You tried to kill me? So that means you are desperate. Are you even pregnant Mia? Even if you are, then I am sure the father is not Damien. So you are trying to kill me now? Do you think Damien would let it go so easily? He will hunt you down to the ends of the world and he will not rest until you are dead. Even if you kill me,
Matt's frown deepened, as he became restless. Mia is making him feel repulsed. His skin is prickling with the sensation of being creeped out. Mia's dishevelled hair, her scary red brimmed eyes, her unkempt clothes, everything is making him feel like, he is looking at an insane woman. He understood that she will do anything for Damien. That realisation only made their situation worse. They are not rich and influential like Mia. She can play any tune and people will applaud for her nonetheless. Even after her false claims about her involvement with Damien, most of her fans are raging at Damien for cheating their favourite supermodel. They don't want to look at proofs or search for the truth. They are led by their blind love for Mia. They love her so much that they are refusing to believe that she might be lying. Even if she decides to kill all three of them now, no one will point their fingers towards her. And there are no witnesses to reveal
Mia looked at Eva with a mysterious look that is difficult to interpret. "No, that will not do Eva. You have to go. I want to marry Damien. At this point, I cannot let you whisk him away. My reputation and my career depend on that. You are ready to die, but are you ready to sacrifice your family?" Mia asked. Now her tone is not mocking or angry. It sounded like she is discussing business. Eva's eyes widened when she heard Mia. "Sacrifice my family? What do you mean?" she demanded angrily. Matt on the other hand doesn't want his sister to listen to whatever Mia is talking. He understood what Mia is doing. She trying to scare them and push his sister away from his brother in law. She is not going to stop with her blackmailing until Eva agrees to her 'terms'. "Sis, don't listen to her. She will not stop until you agree to her stupid terms. Don't engage with her. Let's go home. She cannot do anything" Matt tried to assure his sister.
Damien found George Smith standing outside the hotel where he is staying temporarily. 'What is so important that Mr Smith wanted to talk to me privately? Is it related to Mia? I am sure he must have heard about everything. He must be worried about Eva. I am sure he is here to confirm about the news. Or is he here to warn me to stay away from Eva? Even if he did, what can I say or do? A father would be worried about his daughter's life if he heard that his son in law is having an affair with another woman. I will clarify that my love and loyalty only belongs to Eva and no one else. That should ease his worry a little ' Damien thought. "Sir, come on in. We can sit inside the coffee shop and talk. I mean, if you don't mind" Damien invited George politely. George looked around them and noticed several media people pointing their lenses in their direction. "I don't think a coffee shop would stop them from recording everything. Can we talk in your roo
"You know? But, how? " Damien asked. It's not possible for George to trust Damien, Because they met just last night. Not even 24 hours have passed, and it's not enough time to understand and trust a person so deeply. Before this, both the men never met each other personally. George might have known about Damien because he is Eva's husband. But even then it's not possible to know about a person's personality and nature by watching them from afar. 'So he must have found out from someone that Mia is lying. Who is it? ' Damien wondered? "Someone told you that Mia is lying, isn't it?" Damien guessed. George nodded his head to confirm Damien's statement. Damien frowned. 'So I am correct. Who is it? ' He thought. "If you don't mind, may I know from whom you heard that from?" he asked George. George looked at Damien with a grave expression. 'You wanted to destroy my daughter's happiness. Now I have come here to re
Damien left Maple valley to take care of Mia. The media personal's who came especially for him left the town as well. The once quiet town became quiet again. Everything came back to its normal self. The much talked about Harman wedding is done and the townspeople are now talking about Damien and Mia. "Do you think Billionaire Mr Bishop has an affair with that model?" one of the woman's who came to the supermarket for grocery shopping began to gossip with her friend. Eva, who came to buy groceries froze on the spot when she heard Damien's name. It's been one week since Damien left Maple valley. She thought he would come searching for her to her father's house. She prepared herself to reject him and demand for a divorce, even though that's the last thing she wanted to do.But that's the only thing that would protect her family from Mia. She thought she could see him one last time and save his memories in her heart. But to her disappointment, she hear
"Ouch..." Eva hissed with pain. Blood is oozing from her index finger, as the thorn from the rose stems she is holding grazed her finger accidentally. "What happened?" Matt asked with a concerned frown. He is unloading the flower bundles from the delivery truck they just received. "Nothing" Eva tried to brush it off. But Matt is too attentive to let it go easily. He gently placed the red rose bundle on the table and walked towards his sister. Eva tried to hide her hand, but he already noticed the drop of blood that dripped from her finger onto the glass counter. "Sis, hiding your palm doesn't reduce the pain. Here, let me clean it up for you" he said, before retrieving a first aid kit from a drawer. Eva sighed and let her brother clean the wound, before dressing it up with a band-aid. "Nowadays you are distracted" he said softly. Eva turned her face away from her brother to hide her tears. But Matt noticed her moist eyes
As soon as Eva heard Nancy's words, she became pale. She is not scared for herself, but she is scared for her father and brother. 'I need to do something. I have to pretend as if I don't know what she is talking about ' Eva thought "What are you talking about? Who is Evangeline? I am Angelina Smith. I know you must be bored and this must be your way to pass time, By playing pranks on others. But I am busy. You should go find someone else for these kinds of things" Eva said and pretended as if she is bored by this conversation. She began to arrange the flowers and tried to ignore Nancy. But it's impossible to ignore someone who just threatened to make your worst fear come to life. Nancy smirked. "Tsk tsk, using the outdated techniques are we now?" Nancy mocked Eva. She is undeterred by Eva's words. She came to cause trouble, and she is determined to do that. Eva's shoulders stiffened at her words. But she didn'
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
