George looked at Damien curiously.
"May I help you with anything, sir?" Damien asked eying the flat tire.
George smiled at Damien. Even though he saw Damien a time or two in the past, his memory is hazy and he couldn't recognise him immediately. But he thought Damien looked familiar.
"My car has a flat tire and I don't have a spare. I called the towing guy to come and help me. He will be here soon" George replied with a smile.
Damien nodded his head.
"Do you want me to drop you somewhere sir?" Damien offered.
George looked at Damien closely.
'Why is this man so familiar?' he thought.
"I am going to Maple Valley, a small town nearby. I don't want to bother you. I am sure you must be going somewhere else" George replied with a smile.
Maple Valley is a small town and they don't regularly see new faces in the town. So he assumed that Damien must be going somewhere else.
Damien smiled at George's
Eva is feeling like something is going to happen soon. Her heart is beating erratically and she is feeling anxious. She is so distracted, that she burnt her fingers while cooking their dinner. "Ahh..." she said holding her finger. A frown appeared on her face. "What is wrong with you today? You messed up the flower arrangements, stumbled over your own feet a few times, now burnt your finger. Are you feeling alright sis? Are you coming up with anything?" Matt asked with concern. Eva sighed. "I am fine Matt. I am just feeling out of sorts today. That's it" she replied with a frown. Matt frowned at his sister's words. "Then you should go and relax for sometime. I will clean the kitchen" Matt offered. Eva nodded her head and headed upstairs towards her room. Her parents home is a two storey building with three bedrooms. Her bedroom is on the first floor and Matt's room is across from her's. As soon as sh
George welcomed Damien into his home with a warm smile. He is happy that his son in law came to claim his wife back. Matt, who was busy cleaning the kitchen looked over his shoulder when he heard the door opening. He dropped the rag with which he was cleaning the kitchen counter as soon as he saw Damien. He rushed to confirm if it's really the Damien Bishop that is standing inside their house or not. "Mr Bishop?" Matt gasped when he is sure it's really the multi billionaire Damien Bishop. Damien looked at Matt and gave him a smile. "You must be Matt, Eva's brother" he guessed. George gave him a detailed description of who are all staying in his house. Guessing by the similarities between Matt and George, he understood that the young man must be Matt, Eva's twin. Matt bobbed his head like a doll. He is still under huge shock and is yet to recover from it. His eyes are huge and his mouth is dry. He couldn't believe that he is
"Angel" Damien said with full of love and longing. As soon as Eva heard his nickname for her, her eyes stung a little. Every sweet moment they spent together came to the forefront of her mind. She missed him so much these past 6months, that she wanted to throw herself at him and declare her undying love. But soon she composed herself. The images of Damien with Mia Bridget played in front of her eyes, making her whole body tremble with suppressed anger. 'No, I cannot give in now. He is not the man whom I thought him to be. He is something else. I cannot keep up with these rich people. It's better to cut my ties with him now.' She thought. "What do you want?" She asked him coldly. Damien is taken aback by her attitude. He never saw her this angry before. But he can understand the reason behind her anger. She is thinking that he is cheating on her. He needs to make her understand that whatever she saw in the news is not what it
After Damien left, George's house became dead silent. No one is talking anything. Both George and Matt kept looking at each other and at Eva with a concerned look. They want Eva to listen to what Damien has to say about Mia Bridget. They can see it clearly that he is in love with their daughter. Both father and son nodded at each other, after coming to a silent conclusion. They doesn't want Eva to spoil her life with her stubbornness. Slowly George sat beside Eva on the couch. "We both love you Angelina. We want you to be happy. It's obvious that Damien loves you. Don't spoil your life with some silly misunderstandings. Just give him a chance" he urged softly. Eva stayed silent. After listening to his parting words, she began to feel an ache in her heart. The thought of never seeing him again is something that is making her feel depressed. Some where at the back of her mind, she always knows that he would come for her. It's just a matter of time
"I asked you a question Mia. What are doing here? Who gave you my room keys? Get out of here right now" Damien demanded angrily. Damien was expecting Evangeline. But Mia showed up. This would be the worst time for Eva to show up and look at him like this. He is just wrapping a towel around his body and Mia is looking at him with her eyes filled with seduction. Mia smiled coyly at Damien's outburst. She is looking at his wet body, beading with water droplets. His tight muscles are flexing when ever he moved. He is looking like a Greek God who came straight out of heaven. "Why so angry Dami? You need to relax a little" Mia said and slowly walked towards him. She used his nickname to remind him that she is his childhood friend. Only she calls him Dami. He used to like her nickname when they were kids. But as they grow up, that name sounded childish. So she asked her never to call him that. And more over his late mother never liked that name either.
The hotel manager is shaking with fear. He recognises the woman who is currently sitting on the floor holding her dress with embarrassment. People around them are snapping pictures of Mia, who's back is wide open as the zipper of her dress is undone. As she is a super model, everyone knows who she is. And everyone knows who Damien Bishop is. No one dares to snap pictures of him, as everyone are aware of his reputation as a ruthless man. But Mia is entirely another story though. As she is a model and she is currently half naked, people are falling all over themselves to snap pictures of her. Mia is embarrassed and trying hard to keep her tears at bay. She always heard that Damien is cold and utterly emotionless. But this is the first time she is witnessing it herself. She heard he would not spare the people who dares to cross him. But being a woman and his childhood friend, she thought she could get away with these kinds of things. But she is wrong. She underestimated
The next morning, Maple Valley, a small town which most of the population in the country never heard about, became a overnight sensation. Mia's humiliation is the only thing everyone is talking about. They are all curious about why she went to a town named Maple Valley and who the guy is who pushed her out of his room. They couldn't help wonder about how strong his will is, that he rejected a willing super model. The people who know about the guy and who are scared to share his name on social media began to gossip. Slowly the word began to spread like wild fire through word of mouth, that Damien Bishop is the man who pushed Mia Bridget out of his room. Everyone who thought that he might forget his wife who went missing half a year ago and move on with Mia were left in shock. Now the Harman's wedding is not the thing that people in Maple Valley are talking about any more. They are whispering about who Damien Bishop is and why he came to their town. After findi
"Are you going to that wedding?" Robert asked Damien. Robert, Patrick and Damien are talking in a conference video call. After the fiasco last night, none of them expected it to escalate into something that would attract the media attention so fast. They guessed it will be all over the news the next day, as it involves Mia, who is a super model. But never imagined that one incident will attract the media's attention so fast, that this small town would became so popular over Night. "I have to. If I don't, then everyone will start searching for answers as to why I came here in the first place. That will bring us back to square one" Damien said with an irritated frown. Both Robert and Patrick nodded their heads. "I don't know how she found out about Eva, but I never thought she can be this vicious " Patrick muttered indicating Mia. "Ya, tell me about it" Damien muttered. All three of them know Mia since their childhood. They grew up
