A few days after our passionate night, I received a call from my uncle Robert.He apologized to me, imploring me to put in a good word for him with Damien.I asked why, and he hesitated, telling me that some of his assets had problems.I understood that this was the warning Damien had mentioned he would give to those people."Please, Allison, for the sake of our family."After my family went bankrupt, Robert forgot we were family, but when Damien warned him, he remembered.I told him I couldn't stop Damien. It was his own decision. "I'm just one of Damien's mistresses. I can't persuade him. It was you who made him feel belittled. Damien's actions move me." Robert was very panicked after hearing my words, and he began to implore me to tell Damien that he had not meant any disrespect. This made me feel bored.I told him that perhaps he should go and apologize to Damien himself. Robert awkwardly told me that he did not know Damien's contact information."What does that have to
I took Olivia and Daniel to stand at the school gate waiting for the bus.Olivia had stopped crying. She was grateful that I had defended her in the office and took her and Daniel away from there."Olivia, I know you and Daniel. You would not bully other children. You are both very good children. You can't even bear to hurt the butterflies by the roadside. You are kind and honest, and I am proud of you.""But I am still very sorry to have troubled you, Allison. You should be happily dancing ballet now... You have just returned to school, and you are already busy enough, and I have added trouble for you." Olivia held my hand. She was a bit uneasy. "What if that boy's mother doesn't give up? This may take up most of your time to deal with the trouble Daniel and I have caused... Maybe I should apologize to him, so you won't feel embarrassed about it."I picked up Olivia, touched her forehead with my forehead, and looked seriously into her eyes."Do not apologize for something you did
The next morning, after breakfast, Damien checked the time. He was ready to take me to school.And when I got in the car, Stephen told me that he had arranged all the necessary procedures for Olivia and Daniel's transfer, and now they could go to Horace Mann School at any time.I was excited, took the initiative to approach Damien, and looked up to kiss him on the lips."Allison, you have ballet practice today, and I don't want you to be out of energy."Damien raised the partition in the car, looking at me as his hand slipped under my skirt, kneading my thigh.I blushed, understanding Damien's hint.As I grasped his wandering hand, he leaned against my chest and chuckled softly. "I know, it's my little swan's reward for me." "I'm about to arrive at school, Damien!"It would be terrible if my classmates saw me getting out of Damien's car, especially not looking properly dressed.Damien lowered his head, gazing at me with his beautiful blue eyes full of affection."Alright.
After I agreed with Mia, we tried to list some duet ballet repertoires first.It was a very challenging task. Mia and I each searched for some, but when we discussed them, we were both dissatisfied."Maybe we can discuss it over the phone later," Mia told me.It was already late, and after saying goodbye to Mia, I returned to my residence.Not long after I got back, I received a call from Damien.He told me he was planning to take me to a New York City Ballet performance to relax.I thought it was a good idea. The task of selecting the repertoire had given me a headache. Perhaps watching a performance could bring me some good ideas.Damien quickly sent his assistant, Stephen, to pick me up, and we headed to the ballet performance venue for the evening, Lincoln Center.After taking our seats, I received the list of the performance's repertoire. At the very bottom of that list was the New York City Ballet's staple, Les Biches.This just happened to be a ballet performance featur
On the day of the charity gala, Damien donned a suit that mirrored my style, a deep blue one, with a pocket square folded into the shape of a rose in the breast pocket.He wore a red tie with green stripes inside the suit, adorned with an olive-shaped golden brooch on the left lapel of the jacket, and a pair of golden square cufflinks on the sleeves.I, too, wore an olive-shaped silver bracelet on my wrist and a feather brooch on my collar.I didn't wear a necklace because Damien thought none of them could complement my beauty that night.Stephen told him that there would be many precious and luxurious jewels as auction items at the charity gala tonight, and perhaps he could find one that he would be satisfied with."Allison, I'm sorry. I didn't prepare well enough," Damien said, lightly kissing my neck.Stephen drove a custom-made silver Rolls-Royce to pick up Damien and me, with handcrafted patterns on its exterior.When Stephen drove it to the gala and we stepped out of the c
Damien POVAlex's appearance caught me off guard.I had someone make things difficult for Alex, to keep him from showing up in front of Allison again, and to warn him to face the reality that Allison chose me.The organizer of this charity gala was Alex's father. I knew about it, but Alex had never liked this kind of event, and everyone knew he was not interested in inheriting his father's tech company.But Alex had changed now. He accepted his family's arrangement for him, just to see Allison and to help her.My business partners didn't know about the relationship between Alex and Allison. They teased me about how beautiful and dazzling my date was, so much so that the son of the host of this banquet, that young man, was bewitched by her and chose to dance the first dance with her.I might have been pleased with these words. After all, my date was praised by everyone, but they couldn't have her. She just belonged to me.But I wasn't. I just made do with holding up my glass, loo
When I woke up, Damien had already left.I lay on the bed and looked at the ceiling, but all I could think about was how rough Damien had been on me last night during sex.I still didn't understand why he was doing this to me. Was it Alex's reappearance that upset him?I guessed so, but I thought it was definitely not because Damien cared about me, but because he felt angry that his mistress was coveted by others.I looked at my skin. Because of Damien's roughness last night, there were many hickeys on my body.Damien didn't care about Allison Claire. He just wanted his swan, an obedient and obedient puppet in sex.I gathered my emotions and put on a high-necked top to make sure the marks on my body weren't seen.Although I was very tired and my mind was very weak, I needed to restrain my sadness and continue to attend class training in school.Six months from now was going to be my graduation solo performance. I had already given it up once because of money issues, and I didn'
That feeling of ease vanished the moment I saw Damien again.Damien stood at the entrance of my place, witnessing Alex dropping me off.I saw him standing in the doorway. He seemed to hesitate, not going inside.As the sound of the car pulling up reached the door, Damien turned around, sensing something.What a terrible situation it was for Damien to see his mistress getting out of her ex-boyfriend's car.I felt foolish for accepting Alex's invitation earlier, even though I didn't regret the ease I felt being with Alex.Now, with a clear mind, I knew I had to leave that ease behind."Alex, thanks for driving me back. You can go home now," I said before getting out of the car.I hoped Damien didn't recognize who was driving me home.Alex noticed I had moved to a new address. This upscale neighborhood was not somewhere I could afford to live after going bankrupt.He looked quite downcast.I figured he had guessed Damien provided this new place for me."Please, Allison, let me
