Sir Damien's Contracted Wife Business prospect
Chapter Thirty-Six – Business prospect. The building had a long hallway that seemed to never end. Arya had passed by the seventh red door, as per Seth’s description. She’d really appreciate it if he just left his office to meet her but he deemed himself busy. She exhaled tiredly. “I’m someone with a business prospect. Shouldn’t he take me more seriously?” she mouthed. A sound came from behind her, she turned, startled, seeing him. Did he hear her? He had a slightly stunned look so he might have. “Hey, Arya, I’m sorry for wasting your time. I was on a call.” Her shoulders dropped, he definitely heard her. “I don’t mind, I just wondered how many more red doors I’d meet again.” He nodded and pointed back at a door she had passed. “My office is over there. I should have used a number to direct you. My bad.” When Arya got closer, she realized all doors were numbered. Why did he forget that detail that would have made her work easier? Was he losing focus due to the heartbreak? Behi
Sir Damien's Contracted Wife Threat
Chapter Thirty-Seven – Threat.The building looked less creepy with the presence of the police men. Damien wore a bulletproof vest and held unto a torch before walking towards the policemen. “Sir Damien, will you please stay behind? We will handle it from here.” A policeman pleaded with him. Damien frowned, shaking his head. “This is my sister in-law we are talking about. I’d like to stay close.” He moved ahead. The policeman was stunned. He was a fan of the CEO and tracked all news related to him as he was his business mentor. But he had never heard about him getting a wife. “Sister-in-law?” he asked out loud but Damien didn’t hear. The man cleared his throat before walking close to him. “Well, I hope you cooperate with us to ensure your safety. We are going in now.” He said to Damien. Damien nodded, stepping back for him to lead. The policeman smiled before gesturing to his team to proceed. The building was quiet and didn’t show presence on any living being. It bothered Damie
Sir Damien's Contracted Wife Questions
Chapter Thirty-Eight – Questions. The flower shop was officially open after a week. Arya hurriedly checked her mail box to see if she got requests. She hoped she hadn’t disappoint any of her customers. They were few so it was important to keep them. Only about three requests were in the mail box and all where to one address, she smiled within herself. “Maybe a wedding and they need variety of flowers to decorate.” Again, she wished she knew some interior designing so she could be of some help and have that as a side income. Either ways, she began arranging the flowers to deliver before Damien would pick her up. Some of them had began losing color but she watered them diligently. A florist shop was hard to maintain but she loved it. It stayed to remind of her mother and sister in hard times. The place was more than her shop but comfort place, away from her abusive father.If these flowers could bloom so beautifully despite how bad of a handler she was, then she could too after e
Sir Damien's Contracted Wife Not A Wade
Chapter Thirty-Nine – Not a Wade. Connor ran his hands through his hair, looking outside the window. Girls, they would be the doom of him. The junior girls were playing basketball outside so he watched them from the corner of his eyes. He’d be graduating soon and leave the cursed presence and with his current heartbreak, he was more excited to be leave. Someone walked in. “Connor, don’t let that chick bother you. They are many fishes in the sea.” It was his best friend, Bliss, she plopped down besides him, unpacking the snacks she came in with. “Hungry?” His eyes remained on the junior girls playing basketball, they were now bickering about something. “No, thanks. I’d be heading home soon.” Bliss stopped the burger going to her mouth and frowned. “Huh? Because of that bitch you are going home early? What about the anime you’re watching at my house?” Connor faced her with a sorry smile. “Right, but I’m really not in the mood now. Start without me. I’m really sorry…” “Ugh!” Bli
Sir Damien's Contracted Wife Bombs
Chapter Forty – Bombs. “I’d call the police!” Connor’s scream brought Damien back. “No! Don’t!” he screamed back. “This’s beyond them for now. Let’s be sure how many survivors and the damage done first.” Connor came down from the car, looking confused but he slipped back his phone into his pocket. “Fine. Let’s go in.” His cousin nodded. With the way it looked, the culprits might have been long gone. If they dropped any message, it’d be inside the house. “And if this is really Debby, she wouldn’t kill Selena or my mother. Neither would she keep a bomb waiting for us. I’d hope on that.” He whispered within himself. His brain was yet to formulate why the little girl would go that far to show her hatred for his wife but he’d get that answer later. “Arya, stay in the driver’s seat.” He gestured. “Lock it and be ready to run if anyone comes out after we go in, okay?” She nodded and rushed to the seat. Her driving skills were poor but this was life or death so she should just help he
Sir Damien's Contracted Wife Crazy
Chapter Forty-One – Crazy. Chen sighed, then spread out his hands. “Ta-da! Now you know why! But don’t blame my little cousin, love has a way of making you do the craziest thing possible.” “It does. I mean look at you, trying to remove my wife from my life so that the girl you love can have me.” Damien said with low energy. He shook his head. He was yet to absorb that fact that Debby had a crush on him and that crush was the reason she was being like that. How petty could she be? And this was a dangerous measure. Chen smirked. “Right, don’t we both have a lot in common?” “Yeah, crazy. You two are crazy!” Damien spat out. Chen burst out laughing. “I’m in a stage where people calling me ‘crazy' and ‘weird' sound like a compliment. It likes saying ‘unbelievably cool’ and ‘otherworldly different' in my dictionary.” “You have a weird dictionary.” Damien sighed. “Well, now I know why she’s being crazy. What are her demands? I should marry her, or what!” a slight chuckle left his lip
Sir Damien's Contracted Wife Scolded
Chapter Forty-Two – Scolded.A minute passed between them with Arya wondering if he’d knock her out and kidnap her or just let her go but then he rolled his eyes. “You’re not that pretty on closer look.” He deadpanned. She sighed and her eyes narrowed on him. Did she look like she cared what he thought of her, especially at that moment? He didn’t even look like he had good taste. “I don’t care what you think, just leave me alone.” The boy didn’t look familiar so she knew she never offended him. And Damien said something about him being from China. She had never been there before. He had also added that the boy shouldn’t take orders from some bitch. This bitch could be the one who asked for her death. “Stop wasting your life trying to help a bitch.” “What do you know.” Chen gestured dismissively and began walking out. “And marrying a powerful man doesn’t make you powerful. Make yourself useful in his life or he’d discard you.” His words stabbed at Arya’s heart. That was just one
Sir Damien's Contracted Wife Say please
Chapter Forty-Three – Say please.It was after Arya had found herself at the street of Anna’s apartment that she realized that Damien hadn’t given her a place to go. He had just said to leave. She had driven to her sister’s home as that was her only comfort place but her sister wouldn’t be in, prior to the kidnap. “Maybe I’m really stupid.” she groaned. It had been a scare, driving on the highway to get to that address. Would she suffer all that again? And where’d be her destination next? She glanced at Connor who was asleep again. “Hey! Hey!! Do you know anywhere we can crash at?” The young man opened his left eye to look at her then grumpily sat straight. “He didn’t give you an address?” “If he did, I wouldn’t be asking you now.” She snapped. He whipped out his phone and began tapping buttons. “Few streets from here. There’s an apartment he bought. Your sister had helped him acquire it.” Arya’s eyes enlarged, glad that she wouldn’t need to drive all the way to the highway aga

Sir Damien's Contracted Wife Paired Up
Chapter Ninety-Seven – Paired up. Lucy had heard the news on the radio. The part she didn’t hear, however, was how her mother was the murderer of Juliet Marbles, her aunt. How in the world? Lucy was still fighting with the fact her mother conspired to kill Arya, she was hoping her mother was still her mother while holding on the fact she wasn’t the mastermind. But to think she had actually masterminded and perfectly executed the murder of her own sister years ago? It blew Lucy’s mind away. Everyone at the work place was talking about Debby and Winx issue while Lucy racked her brain over her mother’s. It was revealed that one of Debby’s accomplice had been caught, while the other escaped. No name was mentioned. Lucy knew she was safe even still because her mom didn’t share her surname.

Sir Damien's Contracted Wife Parting Gift
Chapter Ninety-Six – Parting gift. Winx accepted to be a witness to keep Deborah Chan in rehab. Many protesters wanted her to be kept in jail despite her being a minor. She was losing fans by the minute. The media had caught whiff of what happened because a popular celebrity had been in the boutique when it happened, while shooting a video for her fans. She also witnessed that Debby just walked into the store then went after the girls. The identity of the other girl wasn’t necessary to the media, they only wanted to know why the genius attempted murder. Also, it seemed they forgot Debby was once acquainted to the Wades or they’d begin asking barrages of questions. Meanwhile, while detained, Debby desisted from answering unnecessary questions. All she said was she didn’t regret going after the girl because she wanted her dead. The girl being Arya but to the masses, Winx. Debby’s reason was unknown and since there was no prior relationship between Winx and Debby, the med
Sir Damien's Contracted Wife Sorry End
Chapter Ninety-Five – Sorry end. Chen broke into boisterous laughter, then he pointed the knife at Aunt Jenna and slowly menacingly towards her. “You want to meet your man?" He scoffed."Didn’t we both have a deal? You should protect the woman I love and I’d not harm your loved ones, right?” Jenna’s eyes shook. What ever did he mean by that? Had something happened to his loved one? Had Debby been caught? And even if she wanted to, how did he expect her to protect Debby when she was Debby’s hostage? And between she and Debby, she needed protection against Debby than she needed to protect the girl. Aunt Jenna looked at the blood on his knife, and her stomach turned. Who did that belong to? “I-I don’t understand you.” Did something happen? “Well, Since it has come to this, I’d flee the country, never to return here.” Chen seethed. “But you, the police will come for you next.” Next? Jenna realized what had happened. Debby must have been captured. “Did you go after her? Those
Sir Damien's Contracted Wife Last Card
Chapter Ninety-Four – Last Card Arya arrived at the Wades’ Mansion. Kane dropped her then drove out again, without speaking. She knew his head would be filled already. She slowly walked into the living room but was immediately embraced by someone. She patted Connor’s back when she realized it was him. A part of her wanted to see Damien first. Kane had called home to inform them what happened. When Connor let go, Arya saw that Damien wasn’t home yet. “Are you alright? And was it really Debby?” Selena asked quite agitated. It's the first time she showed concern for her. Arya smiled, nodding. “Yeah, it was her. Winx protected me and was stabbed at her right collar bone. The nurse said she’d be okay though. It was very sudden.” Selena gasped, rubbing her face. “Winx. My poor girl. I can’t still believe Debby became this selfish, became this monster!” Mrs. Wade just had a sour expression, looking down at her hands. “Arya, go and rest. This incident must be frightening.”
Sir Damien's Contracted Wife Fear
Chapter Ninety-Three – Fear. The dark circles under her eyes had increased, along with the heaviness of her eyes and her heart. Debby didn’t know if she was still alive because she felt so dead. She could hardly walk around in public for fear that the police could be unto her. And she really needed to stroll. “Chen?” she called but no one answered. Since he spoke to her, asking her intent on killing Arya, he had been distant after she didn’t give a satisfactory response. Had he left her alone too? She just wanted that bitch dead. Why was it too much to do? Why didn’t anyone get her? She slammed her hand at the desk and screamed. “Arya, I’d kill you if it’s the last thing I do!! Bitch!!” The fact that she was somewhere, excited and with Damien made her furious. Damien rarely showed excitement with her, how was he able to open up with Arya within a short time? Debby grabbed Chen’s hoodie and forced it on her body. She needed to move out and plan her next attack. She had been to
Sir Damien's Contracted Wife I'd stay
Chapter Ninety-Two – I’d stay.But why did it feel like a miracle she stayed in the marriage? Arya wondered if he didn’t expect her to stay. “Did you plan to divorce me?” she asked jokingly. “Ah no. I actually thought you’d find someone else. You know, the contract permits you to.” Connor smirked. Arya shrugged. “I thought so too but…” she paused. Wait! He knew about the contract marriage?? She grabbed his shoulder and shook him. “You knew about it? How?” Damien would definitely not have told him. “I married you, you know. I had gotten curious and read the contract during the court marriage.” He revealed. Arya clenched her teeth. Then all these while, he knew their marriage wasn’t real? Did he tell anyone? Even when she had asked him from relationship advice. She felt so stupid. “Well, I was bent on making it work out, though. So I didn’t tell anyone about it, if that’s what you’re worried about.” he added with a pat on her back. Her expression changed to a sober one. He wante
Sir Damien's Contracted Wife Wedding
Chapter Ninety-One – Wedding She had been having second thoughts about lots of things lately. It was partly Debby’s fault, but the other, hers. Arya washed her face with water then left the restroom. Winx was waiting for her, she stared at her best friend and smiled. “Something’s been on your mind.” She had been noticing her stalling or standing at a place, lost in thoughts. “No shit, of course.” Arya agreed with a smirk. “I don’t want to talk about it, though. I’d like to sort this out myself.” She always had a way of sorting out her emotions, the ones she needed and the ones she didn’t. Crying and feeling overly excited weren’t things she grew up doing due to her strict father so she didn’t have time to ponder about strange feelings. “Wouldn’t it be weird if I liked Damien now after trying to stay away from him for months?” She muttered to herself. But could she do anything about what she felt? She was matured enough to like someone. Only that her feelings for Damien were qu
Sir Damien's Contracted Wife Satisfaction
Chapter Ninety – Satisfaction.Jenna tried the knob of the door but it didn’t still open. It’s been hours since Chen left to check on Debby. She sighed, plopping down on the bed besides her. The only thing in the room. She had ended up being kidnapped and forced to be an accomplice. Her current situation was far worse than she could contain. She was beginning to harbor thoughts of turning herself to the police, after all, Stark, who she was hiding her dark side from was already involved. Chen had drugged him for days, keeping him unconscious. Jenna knew it wasn’t healthy but she had no say as Stark had seen Chen when he came to her house to drop instructions and he began asking questions. The both of them were basically hostages at the moment. She hadn’t been able to contact Lucy while Debby had been sending strange letters to her. “I don’t want Lucy to get involved, really.” She groaned. “If only there was a way to reach the outside world now.” She regretted everything. Her h
