Damien smirked after listening to Alexander's words.
"I know Watson Yoke is a very nasty man. He can downgrade himself to a very low level if it means he can gain from it. But you cannot underestimate me, dad. I can handle him just fine. You don't worry about it" Damien said confidently.
Alexander frowned at his son's words. As far as he knows, the contract is foolproof. But if he is telling him that he can handle Watson, then Alexander trusts his son do just that.
On the other hand, Jake is furious. Here he is trying to explain how Damien bullied him and is trying to snatch his fiancee away from him. But Alexander is more concerned about the contract.
"I am telling you that your son is having an affair with my fiancee, but all you are bothered about is the contract? You are not bothered about me?" Jake asked with outrage.
Both Damien and Alexander looked at Jake who is glaring daggers at them. He is still sitting on the hard gran
Jake wants to push Damien into a corner. It didn't work out well in front of Alexander, but it might work out well in front of his mother."Mom, I didn't offend him at all. It's him who is bullying me unnecessarily. He is having an affair with Eva. She is my intended. I found out about their affair and tried talking to Evangeline. He came and abused me physically and took her away" Jake complained, acting as the innocent party.Cassandra is shocked to hear her son's words."What?" She gasped with shock.She looked at Damien with her mouth hanging open."Is that true?" She asked Damien.Damien is tired of explaining himself to others. Mostly he doesn't want to explain himself to the likes of Cassandra. He looked at her coldly."Ask your son why he bedded Rose in the first place. Ask him why he dared to touch a woman who is intended to be married to me. If he is so interested in the firstborn daughter of the Yoke family, then he c
The next day, Eva is walking after her class towards her apartment which is a short distance away. Today it's her off day from the cafe she works at. Cassy has a shift in the cafe, so it's just Eva in their apartment until she comes back. Eva's mind is filled with what if's. She doesn't want to become a rich man's wife. Not now, not ever. Jake was not rich by any means, but he was not the husband material she always longed for. But she never harbored any romantic feelings towards Damien either. They have an insane chemistry which she cannot deny, but that is it. She barely knows about the man whom he calls himself as her husband. Apart from the stuff she collected from online and some tabloid articles, she doesn't know anything about that man. He is like a blank slate that is yet to be filled. She is so lost in her thoughts, that she didn't notice the familiar limited edition car parked outside her campus gates. Just when she is about to walk past the c
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
