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

    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

    Chapter Forty-Four – It’s over. The news of Sir Damien of the Wade group of companies being nearly assaulted spread like wild fire the next day. They were some fluctuations in stocks like always, from some investors who weren’t sure if they should keep working with him since he received death threats every season. And like always, the news media pushed such news of the celebrity CEO as it always went viral and people always had something to say. Seth rolled his eyes on seeing it as a headline. “He better come and talk to us about whatever business prospect he has before he’s finally killed.” He rolled off the bed and sat straight. Turning to his left and seeing Edna naked and laying on the bed with him, he shut his eyes tightly. It always ended that way. She’d cheat, then apologize. He’d try to refuse her but she’d seduce him and they’d be back together by the next minute. He was that loose and he hated the fact. And as he’d made the university know of the breakup, it’d be emba

    Chapter Forty-Five – Hotel room.The cheeks of the receptionist reddened as Damien smiled at her and complimented her Christmas hat. She had thought it was silly as it wasn’t yet Christmas but was glad that someone thought it was cheerful. Damien looked at the room he just acquired. It should serve as matrimonial bedroom to he and Arya for the mean time. Though the bed was small, so he asked for another bed to be brought in. Arya would surely feel uncomfortable if they had to lay too close to each other. He didn’t want a VIP room, which would surely have a bigger room, as he wasn’t hundred percent sure Chen’s boys will let him be. He couldn’t stay in any of his bought apartments as they could attack it at anytime. However, no matter how sick Chen was, he’d never openly attack at a hotel. The phone in Damien’s hand began to ring and he entered the room, then carefully closed the door behind him. “Hello?” “That’s cold.” She said with a small voice. “What did you expect?” He sco

No one wanted her ‘expertise’. She was only twenty-two but was expected to have at least seven years of experience to work at the big shots companies. “How was that supposed to happen?!” she yelled to the cloud as she chugged another cup of alcohol. She grunted, smashing the cup on the ground when it was empty. Envy and annoyance filled her heart. Her colleagues working in those companies had connections, their dads knew the right persons. But in her case, she barely knew her father. And her uncle was as useless as a rock to her. Her mother was also slowly becoming an embarrassment to her.Lucy hated everything about her. She had no one to turn to! Just then, she received a beep call. Then a message. “This is Damien, your in-law, can I call?” Lucy sat straight, rereading the message. Wasn’t this fr

    Chapter Forty-Seven – Gift box. Relocation was easier this time for Arya. Maybe because she enjoyed moving with her new fun family or because she was excited to be in a classy hotel. Seeing the two bed in the room made her heart relax. One bed would have been really awkward for both of them. Not to add that sometimes Damien moved in his sleep, but she doubt he knew that. “Ah! Soft and comfy!” she moaned when she fell on the bed, legs and hands spread. “You like it?” Damien appeared from no where and Arya immediately rolled to the sides and fell. “Your reflexes are really dangerous. It seems you enjoy rolling and falling.” Damien teased, walking into the room and taking a seat on his bed. Slowly, Arya peeked from below the bed. Was he complaining about her reflexes when he always scared her to death?! She was just enjoying some comfort along with peace and quiet when he startled her! Her eyes shut tightly. She should forget about that for now.Since they were all alone in the r

    Chapter Forty-Eight – Did it. Arya was almost sure Damien’s mood got spoiled by her reaction with Seth’s gift. She wasn’t still sure how he knew she was curious about it. She couldn’t place why her curiosity would displease him, but she knew one thing for sure. Damien wasn’t interested in being anything other than business partners with Seth. Arya later found out that Seth had left his number on the card but Damien purposely used email to give a formal response. Also, he might have purposely thrown the gift box to the ground so the gift inside, a beautifully designed tea cup, would get chipped. She shook those thoughts off her head. Damien wouldn’t be so petty. And why’d he do all that for? “You met Seth today, right?” Arya decided to ask after eating her dinner. It took a lot of courage to ask but she had to. He had ask her to arrange a meeting with him, so it shouldn’t be weird if she wanted to know more about the meeting. “Yes, in this hotel. He was in a bad mood and nearly

Damien stayed quiet as the board of directors spoke angrily within themselves. He saw their talks as mindless rants but he didn’t let them know, keeping his plastered fake smile. He was doing his all not to smack them with the tea cup before him. His secretary glanced at him and sighed seeing his clenched fists. “Make them stop, Sir.” The young man whispered. Damien turned to him with a wider smile. “I’m rather enjoying it. The display of their foolishness. I’m ecstatic.” The secretary couldn’t tell if he was joking. “I’m saying that if the stocks go down again, I’m withdrawing from here. Whether or not the stocks rise again. I won’t fall with them!” a board director yelled, then slammed the table. Damien’s smile fell. The secretary looked horrified. “John.” Damien called calmly. The noise died down and

That’s the worst insult Winx ever gave me.” she mumbled. Replays of her earlier discussion with Winx infuriated her. Why couldn’t she be with the first guy she liked? It’s not like she was a kid and couldn’t think for herself. She kicked the small puddle in front of her angrily. “And Damien isn’t helping issues too, acting all lovely with me.” She strapped her bag closer to her body as she began shaking, cold seeping into her body. They were no taxis on the road and she began to sense danger. “I should have stayed in the university, damn it.” She cursed, walking slowly towards the bus stop. She hoped Damien would come to pick her up but her brain dismissed such thoughts. She didn’t want to see him. She was used to walking under the rain and she didn’t want him joking about helping her through cold like he did last night. When she final

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. She divorced her father and went to Mr. Stark so decided to go back to her maiden name. “And to think that Mr. Stark was also killed.” Lucy shivered. Her mother had really gone down a dang

    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

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

    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

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

    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

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.
