ELSA

I stared at Damon's broad back with delight as blood rushed to my face recollecting what went down few hours ago.

I suddenly felt like back then in middle school where I would sneak to the football field to watch him play, the way he moved around the field and everything, nobody ever noticed cause I was mostly under bleachers or somewhere hidden.

Like a little girl in love.

It was a good thing that I pushed for those questions, now it felt like I was truly one with my husband.

Hearing the ring of my phone, I turned to pick it up and saw it was Amber.

Could it be something that has to do with Simpson? I couldn't pick up the call beside Damon right now.

Pursing my lips, I decided to leave when his strong pair of arms held my waist down as he nozzled his nose against my neck.

"I didn't know you were awake." I commented, swiftly cutting the call and placing the phone back on the stand.

Hopefully, that doesn't seem suspicious.

"I wasn't until a few moments ago." He explained while I m

    ELSA"So we planned to use a pink sapphire before right?"Not getting a response, I looked up to see Damon's disapproving gaze."What?" I asked feeling confused, why did he look so mad?"Eat five spoons before speaking on anything concerning that issue." He scolded causing me to sigh with disbelief, so that was it.Dropping my tab, I picked up my fork and murmured a thank you, before digging into my spaghetti."It feels like I am the only one worried about this issue." I muttered underneath my breath while he just gave me a small smile and sat down on the chair opposite me, eating his food as well.After taking 5 spoons as he instructed, I set up the tablet in a landscape manner seeing the jewelry I designed with my hands on full display.Fully produced yet my name was no where near the credit.The Thornes' has been looking to expand their reach into the jewel industries and we landed the collaboration contract, I handled the design myself because it was important.My first big projec

    DAMON I turned off the gas cooker and dropped the towel on the table top, ready to go call Elisa for dinner then the land line rang. I frowned wondering who it could be this late at night then I recollected dropping off my phone with Freddy, I had been so swooned by Elisa that I forgot to reach out to inform that I won't be coming back to work. Well, I would still make that same choice if I was given a second chance. Eli was an epitome of beauty. The ring of phone snapped me out of my thought as I snapped back to reality, pushing the dirty thoughts that were forming to the back of my mind I reached for the phone. "Hello, Thorne's residence."I answered calmly, using my shoulder and head to hold the phone in place as I dished the food out. I wonder what I should make for breakfast tomorrow. "Sir?" "I know it's you Freddy, speak up." Hearing the disdain in my tone, I could hear Freddy gulp before he concluded his words. "Well, Miss Reina r

    DamonIt was a long agonizing period till Dawn finally came.A weak sigh escaped my lips as the voices in my head slowly faded off and the headache reduced.When I felt a bit of energy return to me, I stood up using the sink as support before facing the mirror directly, staring at my reflection.I had eye bags underneath my eyes, well that's what I get for not sleeping well for days.Washing my face, I turned the knob and exited the toilet, my leg hitting something which made me frown.I don't remember placing anything at the entrance.My gaze dropped to the floor as I saw Elisa sleeping by the door, it felt like my heart was being squeezed out every drop of blood in it.My precious jewel.Gently, I picked her up, scooping her into my arms as I carefully walked out of my bedroom to hers.She must have been so worried, why didn't she leave after seeing my attitude? There was no reason to persist.My thoughts were cut short when Elisa snuggled to me, her cheeks rubbing my chest softly.

    ELISAI don't know what's going on with Damon, and honestly, I was worried.In the end, instead of leaving I stayed by the door and ended up falling asleep.The scene of Damon dying haunting me in my dreams, seeing him laying on the floor like that must have triggered it.By the time I opened my eyes, I was in my room laying on my comfy bed and not the cold hard floor.A small smile settled on my lips as I rolled to one side, feeling giddy- it was still 5am, I don't know if I could go out now.I curled up my body into a ball lost in my thoughts.What if Damon treats me the same way he did last night?But he won't have brought me into the bedroom if he wants to keep treating me coldly.I don't understand the act at all.He was clearly in pain, yet he was pretending to be okay.Same thing happened at the restaurant that day.No, I shouldn't be thinking about this right now.My main focus should be on the new jewelry set.But that involves Damon as well, I'm pretty sure there would be an

    REINAI kept refreshing the official page of both Thorne and Gilbert's empire, why aren't they saying anything yet?"Argghhhhhhh." I screamed, throwing my phone at the coffee table."Seems your plan wasn't all that great in the end." Derrick scoffed, puffing smoke out of his mouth."This is your fault, you probably stole the wrong documents.""Woman, watch the way you speak to me." He threatened in a low voice but I just rolled my eyes."Whatever." I stated before falling back into my chair, rocking it slowly."Even if this doesn't work, hopefully they would have fought after that text." "You think Damon will fall for that?""What would you do if your so called dear Mira comes home, reeking with another man's perfume." I jabbed him and he just raised his brows, crushing his cigarette into the ash tray beside him."Mira is pregnant, even if she had given birth, no man wants a woman with baggage." He explained calmly making me cringe.Such a misogynistic fool."So what's your next plan

    Elisa's POV I am getting tired, I don't know how much longer I have to tolerate everything going on in this house, it's honestly starting to piss me off."Are you not going to eat before heading out?" I asked in a low voice staring at my husband, Derrick's back, a hint of anger in my voice."I don't have time to do that, I'm running late." Derrick replied making me cork my head sideways."Are you sure?" I asked once more, then he stood up aggressively making me furrow my brows, what is he on about?"Don't probe too much, you should be in the kitchen instead, you're quite useless compared to other women, you can't even do things right, so don't pester me." He responded with a huff.I raised my eyebrows folding my arms, I might not be that good in the kitchen but whose fault is it?"If I remember correctly you asked me to quit my job and be a stay at home wife, so what's all this ruckus for now?" I fired back, he should have been prepared for this."You this unfilial brat, what do you

    ELISA'S POV CONTD "Stand up." Mother in law ordered making me scrunch my nose, this woman is testing my damn nerves."If you want to eat, go get the damn food yourself, don't interrupt my sleep." I hissed in anger shutting my eyes while ignoring her."Is that a way to speak to my mother?" Derrick questioned angrily.Remind me why I chose to fall in love with this loser of all people, probably the charm he had when we were in college, now his annoyance is beginning to surpass that charm."You should be grateful that all I'm doing to her is speaking in that manner." I grumbled, then all of a sudden, someone yanked me from the bed and I fell to the ground, my butt hitting the floor hard."Okay what the heck!" I yelled standing up, my eyes blazing with anger.I could see Derrick recoil back in fear, he knew nothing good would come out of my anger, then why cause it in the first place."Why are you yelling at me? You have bo right in this house, no authority, you are just an infertile wom

    "You're here." My dad pointed out coldly."Her husband cheated on her." My mother said instantly making me sigh, couldn't she have waited till the old man was calm."I told you not to marry that man." Father sneered angrily while I shrugged."How do you plan to deal with it? Would you leave him be?" "Of course not." I responded settling down on the chair opposite my father.The Gilbert family, a household name that is not to be trifled with.After all, running a billion dollar company comes with some power.That is the family I came from, and the same one I am set to rule in the nearest future. Ignoring an issue like cheating is something my dad would not let me tolerate but honestly retaliating against that asshole is a waste of energy, for an ego as big as his, living my best life is the best revenge.The main reason why I didn't even tell him about my real identity was because of that ego of his, coming out as The Elisa Gilbert will hurt his pride so much."I'll contact his compa

    ELISAI narrated only part of the scenario to Damon, I couldn't tell him I had the intention of removing a man's tongue, what would he think of me? In the end, I only mentioned the fake diagnosis and the plan to drag Derrick from the wedding and everything, which he thankfully bought.Hearing him scold me I couldn't help but feel wronged.It's not like I did anything bad."I took precautions, no one knew I was going over there." I argued and he shot my argument down saying someone else messaged him telling him I was meeting up with Derrick.I pursed my lips in realization.No wonder Damon had picked up on the scent on me quickly."The scent was no coincidence either." I thought out loud.I had originally been pondering on how I got Simpson's scent on me just by gripping his clothes.Thinking back, I did catch a whiff of it when I sat down but I brushed it aside.These days, I have been overlooking details as such, and Simpson used that to his advantage."That asshole." I cursed angri

  • Return of the forsaken Heiress: Regret of her Ex-husband    Why do you hold back?

    DAMONI know Elisa might think I was overreacting but knowing what Derrick was capable of through the memories of our past lives, I sincerely don't want anything to happen to her.I wasn't able to protect her and died before I could even make a move, so this time around I need to have her around me all the time, and if she's not within my reach, she should be somewhere safe.Knowing my darling wife, I had to go during lunch to pick her up then drop her at home.It caused a lot of work to pile up but it was worth it, Eli may want to find Derrick and Reina but there was no way she was risking work.The only period she would have the time to sneak off was during lunch, hence why I chose that time.Well, I thought that was that, until I got a text message telling me that she went off to meet up with Derrick.At first I didn't want to believe it because I trusted Eli, she won't make such a dumb decision.But I also knew her.Sighing, I opened another tab in my laptop and checked the CCTV f

    ELISA"I have no idea what you're talking about." Simpson stuttered causing me to click my tongue, shaking my head sadly."To be honest, you were a good ally, well that was then, but now...." I dragged my words watching him shake underneath my piercing gaze."I swear I have no idea." He pleaded moving backwards."You have no idea, but I have evidence right here that you received payment twice from a foreign client, huge sums at that."I pulled out some papers from my pocket and waved it in front of him, I made my investigation well enough."It was another client." He stuttered once more making me sigh."See, I hate when people lie to me, because it stresses me out, I have to do a lot of brain work to figure out what the truth is.""I'm saying the truth." Simpson hurriedly interjected but I just chuckled."The Gilbert's have sponsored all your research singlehandedly for years and suddenly a mysterious client appears."I paused and gripped him by the collar, forcing him to look me dire
