Daniel brought Emily to Alexandro and turned to leave.
Alex grabbed Emily by her hair and made hr face him. He grinned at the swollen face of the girl."You must be enjoying you stay here." Her uncle grinned at her and pulled her hair the more.Emily feared her hair will be out of her head soon."I hate you, Aren't you shameless? Doing this to your own niece?" Emily spat"I love doing this. And it is better you shut your damn mouth or i will have to do that for you. I will make sure i collect every damn property that belongs me from your brother. You two don't deserve to live anyway. I will make hell for you two.""No damn property of ours belongs to you. Why are you this greedy that you had to make your own daughter and son suffer like this?""Hey, don't try to be pitiful here. You or Damien are never my children. I don't even see you as one." Alex frowned and eventually released her hair.Emily breathed out and glared at him. "No wonder youKimberly got up from the bed and quickly walked to the bathroom like a zombie.She is going for an interview and she had woke up so late that her heart was beating fast."Oh Lord, I pray they aren't through with the interview yet. I promise to go to church on Sunday, If you just let me get the job. I can't believe the devil woke me up at this time." She mumbled as she took off her clothes to take her bath.After bathing, she wore her new ivory dress with a black tiny belt. She did a light makeup and let down her brown hair before grabbing her shoes and bag.She left the house without wearing her shoes but slippers. Once she get there, she'd behave well."Why's no cab coming?" She groaned as she walked down the road in a hurry praying for a cab to come her way.Her interview was 8:00am but she woke up at 9:12am.A car speedily passed her s
"Don't back out when it gets tough." He warned, pointing a pen to her. "You're hired""Thank you, Sir. I promise to do what you ask me to do." She smiled and grabbed her bag."See you on Monday, Sir" She got ready to go."I didn't ask you to leave my office, Miss Kim." The CEO said. "And, I didn't say you will start work on Monday. You're starting today.""B-But today is friday. I don't even think I can work with this ruined dress.""You don't know me, do you? Well, I'm Damien and no one, I repeat, no one disobeys me. Do you want this job or not? If you still want, your desk is outside this office waiting for you right now. You know what I mean.""Yes. It means get to work." Kimberly replied and sighed.She was planning on going home after getting the job. She'd celebrate alone and get ready to be a secretary on Monday."You'd see
He fell into Kimberly's arms and stared at the sky then Kimberly."Call the ambulance." He ordered strictly even in that situation. And soon, he passed out.*******Kimberly called out for help and they took Damien into his car to the hospital.The nurses assisted them and took him to the VIP ward for treatment.Kimberly walked to the reception and sat among others waiting for someone to come out of the room and tell her what's wrong with her boss.She remembered how he had called his papa, mama and the last person, Emily. Why would he call them with so much pain in his eyes.Yes, she saw the way his face looked so painful.Did he lost his family or something?No, she needs to mind her business.Soon, the doctor came out and looked everywhere like she was looking for someone. Kimberly knew she was looking for who brought him here.
Kimberly could hear him mumble something out.If she wasn't mistaken, she heard him mumble,"I don't want to die like them. I don't want to die the second time."*******The taxi got to Dam-Ton company. Kimberly paid the man because Damien walked inside as soon as they got there."He won't even pay." She scoffed before going to catch up with him."Sir, are we still going to canada?" She asked."Yes. Call Mr Ben for me." He instructed while he headed to the car garage.Soon, Kimberly came with Mr Ben."Mr Ben, When the Dantes come, tell them I'm out of the country. I won't be around till next week Monday. Don't turn my company upside down. If you do, a sack letter on your table is going greet you a good morning." Damien warned while Mr Ben nodded his head before going out of the garage.Kimberly stepped f
"And it's because of the way you run your mouth like tap water made you look ugly more than a gorilla." She insulted before the men could descend on her.*********But she was able to run out before they could get to her side."F*ck! Those stupid people that Sir Damien called business partners." She groaned and removed her heels to start walking on barefoot.She almost at her hotel room when she heard two men speaking."Okay, are you sure the goods are going to work? What if he check them before leaving?" One of the men said while Kimberly hid herself well from them and continued to hear their conversation.Someone she was engrossed and she sensed that they must be talking about her boss. And it was finally confirmed when she heard one of them say,"Damien can't check those goods. We will have to do our best for him not to o
But it seems Kimberly has been carried away. She was staring at the man from afar who was holding a pregnant woman's waist."Nathan?" She said in shock.The man she has been looking for.********************Damien looked at the direction she was looking at."Who's Nathan?" He asked, facing her."My fiance. We are getting married in two weeks time." Kimberly explained."Married?!" Damien shrieked. He didnt even know why."You're getting married? Wow! I never thought you'd be getting married at that young age." He scoffed."Sir! I'm twenty-three! I'm old enough to get married." She frowned."I need to check if that's him or not. He can't possibly be with another when he should be preparing for our wedding. Or maybe the woman is Nathan' sister.""Don't be dumb. He's holding the woman's waist and can
Damien looked down, his hands was covered with blood and he realized that Kimberly had released his shirt. She wasn't moving at all.He raised his head to the girls and said, "Call the ambulance immediately" They obeyed.******************The ambulance arrived and took Kimberly away."That son of a b*tch!" Damien growled before entering his car and drove out of the church.Anita and Chloe had followed the ambulance.The doctors kept treating Kimberly till few hours passed and one of them came out before the another one came out with two nurses."How's she, doctor?" Anita stood up immediately the doctors came and ran to one of them while Chloe followed her."The surgery went well. But she's still unconscious. In the next two hours, I'm sure she will wake up."The doctor explained and left.
"No! Don't involve any police. She's just going through emotional stress or something. I will find her." Damien spoke and left the room.'I shouldn't involve myself into this. But I can't stay and watch my secretary dying.' Damien thought.Damien sighed as soon as he got out of the hospital.Where did his secretary go to? Where is he going to find her?He took out his phone and dialed one of her friend's number which he'd collected hours ago. Both Chloe amd Anita's number."Is this Anita?" He knitted his brows waiting for an answer."Yes. This is Anita. Who am I speaking with?" She drawled. Her voice sounds like a tired one."It's Damien. Kimberly's Boss.""Oh my! The hot angel....sorry, I know you're looking for Kimberly but I don't think she's in her right mind to see anyone." She responded.
Daniel brought Emily to Alexandro and turned to leave.Alex grabbed Emily by her hair and made hr face him. He grinned at the swollen face of the girl."You must be enjoying you stay here." Her uncle grinned at her and pulled her hair the more.Emily feared her hair will be out of her head soon."I hate you, Aren't you shameless? Doing this to your own niece?" Emily spat"I love doing this. And it is better you shut your damn mouth or i will have to do that for you. I will make sure i collect every damn property that belongs me from your brother. You two don't deserve to live anyway. I will make hell for you two.""No damn property of ours belongs to you. Why are you this greedy that you had to make your own daughter and son suffer like this?""Hey, don't try to be pitiful here. You or Damien are never my children. I don't even see you as one." Alex frowned and eventually released her hair.Emily breathed out and glared at him. "No wonder you
"Alright, but don't close your eyes okay? If you do I will be scared to death. Don't just do this to me and keep breathing." If they could check on Damien's heart rate, if possible it could have gone to 200%.He looked at the glass and saw a man with a long gun trying to aim again at their direction.Who sent this man? What's he doing? Why did he want to kill him and even his Secretary?He could clearly see the red dot on his chest too. The man in black was about to shoot him too.Damien quickly got up with Kimberly in his hands and tried to rush to the door. Before he could do that, he was shot on his arm instead of the chest.He almost dropped Kimberly on the floor but he stood his ground and carried her more properly.He would protect this innocent girl from any harm. These people are after him and now they included his Secretary.Damien felt the pain in his arm that he was using the remaining strength in him to carry Kimberly and run away from
The lady raised her head and it was Clara. Kimberly gulped down and forced out a smile. She dropped the cake in her hands and stepped back."H..How did you know it my birthday today?" Damien asked. He didn't stop staring at her."Mr Ben told me it going to be your birthday today." Kimberly answered. "I..I..I have to go now. I can see you have visitor. I shouldn't have bothered myself to come." She said again and ran out of the office.Immediately, she closed the door behind her, Kimberly sighed and dropped herself to the ground."I shouldn't have come to the office. And me thinking he's going to be alone and I will be the one to stay by his side all night. You're such a silly girl."She had the thought whether to go back home or stay. It already getting late. She carried herself up and walked to her small table then sat down."Maybe I shou
"I will advise we take things easy, Sir Damien.""Take what things easy?" Damien scoffed. "All i need is to be careful and find every fucking way to get my sister from that monster and put him and his damn men into jail."Kimberly nodded and got up from her seat, prepared to leave but Damien stopped her."Are you recieving any threats from your stepfather?" He glanced at her.He still care and asked about how she's fairing?"No. I did not recieve any." She answered."J..just needed to ask. If he trys anything stupid, do not hesitate to tell me. Call me Mr Ben. There will be three days holiday starting from Tuesday. Inform all staffs about this." Damien told her."Why sudden three days holiday?" Kimberly was surprised to hear that. What's he planning to do? Why the sudden holiday?
Kimberly rushed into the ward Steven was receiving treatment and ran to him. She'd heard about the news from Damien. Steven had ask Damien to call Kimberly to come see her. Damien hesitated at first but later, he'd call Kimberly. "Oh my God! Who did this to you?" Kimberly winced as if she was the one who got hurt. "Some assassins. The doctors said I will be fine soon. I just came out of surgery two days ago." Steven answered her. "You mean you've been shot few days ago and you didn't bother to call me? Or was my boss hesitating to tell me?" "No, I called him yesterday. Could you get my cloth in my car?" He asked. "What if I didn't come?" "I was going to send the nurse." Steven smiled. "Alright." Kimberly agreed. "When I come back, you will tell me wh
Gerald sighed and shook his head before sipping another wine from his glass. "I should have know that he's a bastard all along" He mumbled.He thought of what happened earlier at Dam-Ton Company. The two seems to be close to each other. Probably be in a relationship or something. No, it doesn't look like they are in a relationship.But whatever it is, he still own Kimberly no matter what.*********************Damien paid for the food and helped Kimberly up from her seat. Seeing her like this, she can't go home alone. And who says he's going to let her go home by herself.What if some boy tries to do something awful to her?What's this feeling? Why did he Carr for her so much than anyone he knew around him? Not even Mr Ben or Clara receive so much care like this from him."I can go home myself, thank you for today." Kimberly interrupted h
"Are you feeling any better or we should just go somewhere else? Do you like this place?" Damien asked, seeing the way Kimberly wasn't relaxed.Maybe she didn't like the place. He won't hesitate to take her to another place."No, Sir Damien. I'm fine. I'm just nervous." Kimberly answered."Nervous about what? That you're going to eat with me? This isn't the first time you will be eating with me." Damien frowned before he chuckled and stopped the waiter passing.He ordered for the both of them and continue talking."I'll be canceling the contract. The one I had with your stepfather." He said.Kimberly snapped her head up and looked at him."Uhm...Sir, you don't have to do that. I mean it was my brother that brought the contract not him. Don't cancel the contract. Just make it look like it's my brother you signed the contract with." Kimberl
Chapter Thirty ThreeGerald watched in awe as Damien patted his stepdaughter's head.What the fûck is going on? Are the two dating or....He scoffed seeing them and rolled his eyes.Steven at the other end was a little surprised. The cocky boss hugging a secretary? There must be something behind that but Steven ignored that for now and faced his father.How could he be so stupid to act like that in oublicr and now, they just lose the contract they've been pursuing for a year and half months."Why are you looking at me like that?" Gerald glared at his son."You just behave like an impotent man, dad." Steven spat and walked out of the reception.He was careful not to lose this deal with Dam-Ton Company but his father ruined everything upon setting his eyes and laying his filthy hand on Kimberly."Are you still here or you want me to call the
Thirty TwoSteven heaved as he walked behind his father. Why is he even trying to hide his stepsister from his father? Like he said to here the other day, he isn't like his father even though he did joined his dad in maltreating her.He shook his head and adjusted his tie. He didn't want to go there now."Are you really keeping something away from me? I know the boss is in there but why did you had.....""He isn't there. He went out." Stevn cut him off. His father is really a suspicious person."How did you know? You told me you're meeting him at this time. Ah! I forgotthe kind of person he is." Gerald scoffed and walked faster to the car packed outside the company."Sir! Sir! Are you done with the meeting already with the secretary?" Mr Ben said, coming out of his car too to meet them."There's no meeting. I didn't even meet the secretary or the boss.
