Chapter 40

Meeting Mr. Saviour

As they made their way through the estate, their journey came to a halt in front of a 3-story building, which was remarkably outstanding in the estate because of its elegant features.

“Welcome to my home, Lila,” Mr. Damian said with a smile.

“Wow! This place looks really amazing,” Lila commented as they got into the well-furnished living room.

She expected to see a maid or a servant step out to welcome them, but she saw none.

Isn't this house too big for one person to live in?

Besides, who does the cleaning and cooking for him? She thought inwardly while her gaze shifted from one angle to the other in admiration for the features on the wall.

“Feel free and have your seat, Lila. I'll be with you in a short while,” Mr. Damian goes on to say before he leaves for one of the rooms on the ground floor.

“Oh my God!” Lila exclaimed when she saw Mr. Damian ambled with a tray to her front.

The aura in the room changed immediately by the savory of the dishes.

    Chapter 41“I'm alive because of you! Thank you, Mr. Saviour!” She exclaimed in whispers.In great exhilaration, Lila left her seat, and with her arms widely opened like a bird flying in the air, she gummed her body on Damian's in tight clasps.“Thank God you're alive! I'm sorry, I couldn't wait to see you recover,” Mr. Damian whispered, with his hands wrapped around her back and her head on his shoulders.The dim and calm blue light makes the environment extremely cozy for lovers.Lila heaved a sigh of relief, his arms offering her a comfort she had never felt in her entire life.Even her wedding night with Grey was not as enticing as this.Her heart melted; a feeling of problem-less life dawned on her.“I'm also alive because of you! Who knows, I might have passed out completely if you were not with me in the office. Thanks to Joan, right? For splashing the coffee on you,” he admitted jokingly.“Com'on, so you're now mocking me, right?” Lila chuckled as she slowly began to lose grip

    Chapter 42Lila's heart throbbed and swelled up as the question rang in her head. Finally, a day she had earnestly prayed for never to come is here.She feigned dumb to his question and sat without saying anything, until Damian got prompted to ask a second time, “Miss Lila, why is your look on the wall so intense? You love the wall paper designs, I guess?" He said softly with a smirk.Immediately, Lila trembled and nodded as if taken unawares, “Yeah, the design. It looks really amazing, you know,” she remarked.Not until he asked the question, Lila didn't even notice the wallpaper design. What was in her mind was a different thing altogether.He stood and slouched to the fridge, which was at the right corner of the dining room, and brought out a bottle of champagne.“Alright,” he said, dropping the two glass cups on the stool while he gradually poured out the drink into them.“From now henceforth, I'm not only your boss at the office, nor are you only my staff, but we're friends!

    Chapter 43Aunt Kendy felt pretty numb. Everything Lila had said seemed unnervingly ironic.“Kendy, you have to be careful of the kind of advice you offer to a person in this kind of situation. This is a critical moment in her life, and she's dependent on you now to make a good choice,” she scolded herself.Slowly and gradually, she took her hands from Lila's shoulders and moved to lean on the table, ensuring direct eye contact with Lila.“But did you tell him that you're married?” She demanded softly.“No, aunty. I had to feign having a light stomach ache, which was why he rushed me home.”“Hmmmm,” Aunt Kendy sighs.“I'll advise that you tell him the truth when next he confronts you about that again.”“Aunt Kendy! I can't do that!” Lila exclaimed.“Look, you have to do it, my dear. That's the only truth that can give you peace of mind. If he's meant for you, he'll stay, but if he's not, he'll definitely leave. Besides, you're not too sure if he's married or not, or maybe even divorce

    CHAPTER 44Confessing the feelings Lila was quite puzzled at his words. This was a dream she least expected would ever come true.Indeed, when next they say destiny has a way of bringing people together, she wouldn't spare a moment to believe it wholeheartedly.“But,”“I know the conceptions in your mind,” Damian interrupted before Lila could even spell out what she intends to say.But Lila still looked puzzled. How can he say he knows her mind already when she was thinking beyond the ordinary?Damian locked his palms into hers. “I'll tell you all that you need to know, but just promise me one thing,” he said calmly.Lila's confusion became intense; this discussion is getting more serious than she thought.“Promise that you'll still love me even after telling you everything,” he said, peering at her.“Lila, there's no need for you to deny it. I know already that you love me.”She squinted; her mind throbbed at the severity of his demands. He's right, her love for him was obvious alr

    Chapter 45Lila stared back at him; her heart was troubled; actually, no woman would want to be a widow at a young age, not even her.But considering the fact that God can change situations around, her fears diminished, and by the way, her love for him has outgrown words.“You're not going to make a widow out of any woman, Damian, not even me.”Damian peered at her suspiciously, trying to get a clearer meaning of what she's saying.“Fred not, Damian,” Lila said with a faint smile the moment she noticed the look on his face.“I'm not leaving you! What I mean is—" She paused and took a deep breath before she continued, “I'll love you till the end, and I want you to take away the fear of death, because you are not dying anytime soon,” she encouraged him, moving closer to let their bodies stick and lips meet in sync.“Oh, I'm sorry, I..." The door suddenly opened, and a voice stuttering words of apology echoed.Lila immediately pulled herself from the embrace, and Damian arranged his suit

I pity you, prospective widow!” Joan sneered and spat as Lila passed through her office to get to her husband's office, Mr Damian.“You know what? At least mine is better. I'm legally married to him. But come to think of it, what do we call ladies like you who shamelessly indulge in illicit affairs with their bosses in the office, knowing fully well that those bosses can never marry them?” Lila stood and looked eyeball to eyeball before uttering those words.“How dare you!” Joan yelled angrily, lifting her hands to rain down a slap on Lila's face, but her hands got stuck up in the air as Lila prevented it from meeting her face.“Try it, and you'll see yourself walking out of this company in the next 10 minutes. Remember, your partner in crime would not be an exception to this,” Lila threatened and dropped her hands violently as she proceeded to her husband's off

    CHAPTER 47Meeting With Brian Silence and confusion were welcomed in the atmosphere for a while. Barrister Joe and Aunt Kendy were totally naive of what was going on, while Brian and Lila, on the other hand, tried to conceal the reality of them knowing each other before now.“Yes, I mean, no,” Like answered counter actively.“His face just looks familiar because I've once seen him on social media before now,” she claimed.“Yeah, she's right. I can remember her following me on all my social media handles and would always give a thumbs up to our quality product advertisements,” Brian concluded and agreed with what she said.“Wow! That's good to hear. It shows that Mrs. Lila has been in love with the company since before she even married my client. With this, I believe you'll manage it well, as my late client has always wished it to be.” Barrister Joe agreed to their explanations and commented.Lila and Damian exchanged side glances and heaved a sigh of relief for successfully convincin

    Chapter 1Divorced on my birthday “Honey, you've not said anything since we got here. You neither compliment my dress nor comment on my food,” Lila said.Grey kept mute, as though she were talking to a ghost, not even lifting his eyes and looking at her.“I suppose today should be my happy day. You brought up the idea of us coming here to spend some time alone, and now you're staring at me without a word? Are we doing a retreat?” Lila was losing patience with the serene environment.“You would have allowed me to party with friends rather than with this attitude you're giving me now.”“Enough of the talk already, Lila!” Grey yelled at her, dropping his spoon on the table.“In fact, I'm done! I'm done with you. You and I know that there's no chemistry between us.” Standing up, he ducked his hands into his pocket, brought out a piece of paper, and handed it over to her.“Ensure you go through those papers and sign the divorce.

    Chapter 39Caring for her bossLila walked towards the hospital route, pondering Aunt Kendy's words.But there were some elements of truth in what she was saying!If not, why is she so attached and concerned about him more than a normal boss and staff rapport?But even if she later falls in love with him and he feels the same towards her, what would she do with her pregnancy?Of course, no single man would want to marry a divorced and pregnant woman.She felt an utmost discouragement dawning on her for keeping the pregnancy, but a sharp voice scolded her instantly, “Remember, your child is your utmost priority!”“That's true. After all, my purpose of being in this town is to re-establish myself and my career, not to fall in love.” She consoled herself and distracted her thoughts with a different thing.“Daughter of the devil!” Joan glared and hissed at Lila the moment she stepped into the hospital ward.Lila feigned deafness to her statement and proceeded to stand beside Damian's bed.
