Just like the snow in winter his heart grew colder day by day!!Damien woke up rather angry than happy, he had literally had nothing to think about except for how his mother was treating him, constantly choosing Aella over him. “Why does she never support me?” He muttered to himself ever since last night she had been so filled with anger and regret.“Hey love!” Amelia's voiced over the phone as he picked her call she was the only thing that could make his day, he thought to himself.“You just make me smile a lot, Amelia?” He expressed adding finishing touches to his dress.“I mean what more can I do?”Damien smirked.“There are a lot of things you could do, maybe you can come back to Chicago and stay for a while, while I keep you company ?” He teased.After a while, he was done with the call and headed out of the room.As he headed for the living room, he met with his mom, who was gracefully sipping a cup of coffee.He decided he wasn't going to talk to her or say anything.He walked
Everytime she closed her eyes he prays to be in her dreams and tell her things he can't tell her in realityThe ride in the car was silent as Marie stared into the evening light, literally everything going through her mind.Why did I even say that? Marie thought to herself with her arms wrapped around her to shake off the cold evening.She stole a few glances at him and wondered what he was thinking in his mind, what he saw her as, and she could already tell how much the words she said affected him because he had been silent ever since and on random occasions he just gripped the steering wheel a little too tight.She exhaled and just kept staring into the city light.Soon enough they reached home and Marie was the first to get out of the car and headed inside straight. This was the longest time she had ever spent in a man's house and Seth being her first.First to have sex with, first in everything.They made love yes, but not on a deeper level because everytime he wanted to go all in
He wrapped his arms around her as her cold body came to life.Just like that, Marie woke up from her dream. The cold she felt from her dream surfaced to life, and the tears she had cried were on her face.“Goodnes!” She exclaimed, wiping off the tears from her face. She recalled her dream as she stood off from the bed and headed for the restroom. She rubbed her eyes till she reached the bathroom. Her brain still felt hazy from the deep sleep she had, and as she lazily carried herself into the restroom, she splashed water on her face to make her face clearer.“What just happened?” She whispered to herself, holding on to the sink, gently lowering her hair down. The images began to slowly play in her head.“Where are you going?” She asked Seth as he pulled away from her.“But we can't keep living on secrets!” Seth said, pulling farther and farther away.She cried and watched as he just vanished out of sight. The image of that in her head made her heart struggle within. The thought of Se
Aella stared down at the message and took in that fear and pain; he had down worst in her face with Marie touching her romantically, spitefully making a mockery of her, and she didn't die because of that, but she wondered where this message was coming from.Aella got ready in under one hour and was ready to head out to her antenatal checkup, but she still contemplated if she should allow Blythe to take her or if she just went herself.Like she had any choice in the first place.She descended the stairs, and her eyes caught his figure immediately as he was seated on the couch, his legs crossed in a sexy manner.She took in a deep breath and went on. His gaze landed on her, and she felt his lips part like he was about to say something, which he did.“Apart from the beautiful morning I woke up to today, you are the most beautiful I have seen after that!” Aella tried so much not to blush, but she couldn't help but giggle.“Hmm...Blythe, it's a beautiful morning indeed!’Since he was acti
Marie knew her day didn't just turn sour by Damien telling her to move Aella's desk into her office. Yes, her office was quite large, but Aella staying in her office was not going to be cool.“But...."“Did I stutter?” Damien raised his voice.She shook her head, and she knew if she declined, her job was going to be at stake.She reluctantly had the desk moved to her office, leaving it at the far end of her office.She couldn't wait for the day to run out for her to just stone out of work.“What is he even thinking?” She murmured to herself, sighting the desk everyone she raised.The day for Marie was so sour, and once it was time for her to go home, she didn't even wait one more minute.She stormed out of work, and she decided she was going to branch at Seth's place to get her flower samples so she could do the only things that could ease her senses.Making perfumes Luckily it was pay day and her salary was fortunately paid; she was just grateful that he didn't move mad on that asp
Aella arrived her matrimonial home by evening. She waited for Becca to be back, and Blythe had spent the whole day with her. They didn't talk much because she felt really sleepy and had to rest for a while, but she and Blythe did have a little conversation, almost like nothing ever happened. She loved that about Blythe; he never kept malice; she had noticed that.Becca had been the one to drop her off at Damien's, and they both walked in, seeing Damien smiling on the phone. The truth about Becca is that her aura was a killer.Especially when she had her shades on, she looked like a spy agent about to leak a huge secret.“Let me call you back!” He ended the call as he saw them walk in.“Miss Becca, good evening to you!” Damien greeted with his broad smile on his face.And yes, he always felt intimidated by Becca's presence."Damien, nice seeing you again!”Becca wasn't about to confront him about anything; it wasn't yet time.She noticed that he didn't bother to welcome his wife prop
Damien' thought he had Aella there as she walked in; he avoided letting Jeyws with her and just continued to work.He directed her to Marie, who knew the tow wouldn't last long, but Sophie was pressuring her to cuv Euro and Wnstr to cut off the contract.His plans were successfully set in motion. Amelia had also informed him that she would be arriving in Chicago the following week, and he was preparing the way for her.He scoffed as she left quietly, though she looked very intimidating, which Damien knew he was going to take care of.In a fit to see the look of defeat in her face, he headed out to see how well she was cooperating with Marie.With a smile on his face, he popped into Marie's office, but to his surprise, she wasn't there.“Where's Aella?” He asked Marie, who seemed really relieved and happy.“I have no idea!” She simply responded without taking her face from her computer.He begins to lose his patience level.And he wants Tahead to ask each worker.And all of them stated
His jaw dropped.He watched as she walked away from his presence, seeming very confident and very hot to touch. He knew if he pressed on, things might end up pretty bad than they already were.Aella walked off into her room, with her glass of wine alongside the bottle.“The audacity for him to think he can chase me out when I haven't gained anything!" She reasoned to herself.Aella was very tired with all the drama and chaos, but she had her plans, and she was going to show him the hell he had put her through.She shut the door to her room and pulled the curtains open. She sat down on the couch in her room, crossed legged, sipped on her wine, and stared into the city, plotting her plans against Damien.Damien had been embarrassed twice in a row in a different place that he claims to be his. Walked all overHe takes his seat to reserve his stamina and just placed his head in his Palms the only way he could do this quietly was by being calm.And by calm, he knew exactly what he was doing
Aella was swept off her feet more than she could have imagined, but not by someone she had thought. She decided she was not going to think about Damien or anything that has to do with him, or literally anything that is tied to his being.She didn't want to think about it. as much as she knew this was the happiest she had ever been since they got married.The least she could do for herself now was to stop ruminating about the past, not when she was starting to come back to being herself. This was the gift to herself, and this was more like the best gift ever. She will stop thinking about him and focus more on understanding herself; she was planning to get a divorce sooner than later. She wanted to be totally free so she could start living again.She's sat in the car; it's a new hair and a her new self. As they rode across the city, she looked back at Blythe, who seemed to be very happy and seemed to be thinking of something that made him smile every second. She looked away from his fac
Just the right amount of sauce to make him look like God's sent. She stared at Blythe, who just unconsciously did the cutest things. There were times he talked to himself, there were times he just glared out the window, or there were times where he just picked up the salon magazine and read it, and his expressions whenever he came across something controversial made him the perfect partner to give your work the gist.Blythe had taken the initiative to get Aella a snack after every hour at the salon he got her milkshakes and takeouts.“Here's some for you!” Blythe voiced handing over the takeout box to her.By this time she had just started to make her hair; she had first gotten into washing it and then styling it.“Thank you!” She smiled, and he walked back to his seat.“That's an intentional mannn!" The hairstylist teased her as Blythe fully walked away.Aella didn't know what to think, nor did she know what to say to the hairstylist.“He's just my friend!” Aella responded with a smi
He paced back and forth as he struggled to keep to himself for the past three weeks—nothing from her—nothing to keep his feelings in check, not even her green light.It was every risky to go visit her in her workplace, as he appeared to be a potential threat to Damien, especially when Damien was the reason for this whole mess in the first place.He picked up his phone for the billionth time trying to place a call to her and explained things well enough to her. But he couldn't; he couldn't bring himself to explain the truth of the whole matter to her; that would not only end him; it would also end their whole family name and career. The way they had left things off, they knew Marie would probably see him as a bad person or worse, a monster that didn't deserve to live.Seth had always wished he wasn't born into the family he was born into, and quite true, he didn't like it there, but ever since he met Marie, he had wished more for that prayer to come to pass than ever before.He felt c
"Well, I must say you look absolutely beautiful." Blythe complimented Aella as he opened the car door for her.Aella had never had alone time with Blythe before; spending the whole day with him felt so illegal, but she knew she had to leave her room at least once so she wouldn't rot away in misery.She had thought about it all so much that she didn't want to think about it anymore; she just wanted to start living life again.The life she had thought she could live with Damien, but it turns out that she couldn't.It's funny how the same life she craved for was the same life God had helped her package with her mom; she could live freely and not depend on anyone.For the first time, she smiled, and that smile was genuine.“And I must say you don't look bad yourself!”. Aella responded with a soft voice.Seeing her smile is his delight, and he wanted more of it to happen. He kicked the car to a start, and they started their little journey.Aella wasn't used to engaging in conversations wit
Yes, maybe there were people out there who hurt you real bad, but you need to understand that they shouldn't make you stop loving; you just choose to love yourself enough to love them and not overlove them, so you know when to leave or when to live by grace, just like you would give yourself a voice when necessary.Aella had left Vollini and Becca in the living room to discuss while she just went to her roomma. DN just wallowed.She cuddled up in her bed and just stared out the window. She watched as the snow fell lightly; she could think of nothing else than just...Her baby…Damien was no longer on her mind; she couldn't really care less; he had done what he had to do, and he had done his worst already.If he cheated, it really wasn't any of her business; the only thing she blamed herself for was staying that long trying to take her power back.She sighed again, giving the fact that she had so many things planned out for herself and her baby.She looked down at her phone and realize
Chapter 139“Just when you thought you had it all, there another shows up to be the worst."Collins paced back and forth in the living room of Becca's house as he wanted to tell Becca about how unruly Damien had been to his sister. Aella wasn't in the midst of all these; they had allowed her to be alone for a while in her room, which they made sure to check on her on a few occasions.“Does he ever think at all, like why is he being the animal that he delivered me from, why is he being like that forsaken dude called Seth?" Collins raged again.Truthfully, he hadn't known his sister's case until they got home from the hospital, and immediately he heard it took the strength in Becca to keep him grounded and not go to confront Damien.Collins had just arrived at the right time.Becca was instantly notified of how inseparable Collins and Aella are; she saw how much love they both have for each other, and she is more than willing to love them both.But she wondered who this sort of guy Coll
Just at the beginning of dusk, there was a man who you would consider lonely due to his demeanour and the way he looked so unlikely, he looked destabilised he look tormented like he had from NS fetching out his should price by piece. He suddenly realised how much he had taken from her ,how much thing he had stolen and as much he was willing to give it back, he knew he wasn't in the right position to go ve it because initially je had stolen it from her.Damien stood on the highway his car parked by the side of the road as he stared AFR off into the distance his eyes fixated on something -the city lights but his eyes wasn't on them his eyes were remembering and capturing something's that would shine as bright as the city lights.Her eyes Over time he realised that he had witnessed how the glow in her eyes disappeared each was eryryutme he became an asshole, every time he decuded ti step down from being a man to bueng a toddler.He heaved a deep sigh as the whole guilt pulled a weight i
Not all that glittered seems to be gold... But for Damien, his vomit seems to glitter like gold and looks like the most beautiful diamonds from the outside.As he dropped Aella in the hospital, he turned back and went back to work. He didn't bother to ask what happened to her or what might happen to her; he asked then if she was going to be fine, and they said definitely the rest if it was none of his business, but unfortunately enough, they told him as much as he didn't want to hear about everything the doctor called him as he got to the office.The doctor's call came through as he was about to enter his office. On getting into the office, he noticed that Amelia was no longer in the office, including her bag and all. He answered the call and settled down.Luckily, the doctor happened to be his friend!!!“Hey Corniel!” He voiced over the phone, rearranging his fiel and just getting ready to head home.“You seemed to be in a hurry; was there something that came up?” Corniel asked as t
Sometimes things aren't always as they seem, sometimes it's the opposite and sometimes it's true but sometimes it's just complicated.But for Aella it was exactly what it seems like, Damien was slowly bringing in his ex into their marriage to replace her and guess what??She wanted it that way…At least with that she was out of the marriage and out of his life.“What was what?” She asked, popping a lollipop in her mouth.“Hmm, nice strawberry flavour!” She thought to herself after the full taste of the lollipop filled her mouth.She honestly didn't care about the useless and unrecognised tantrum Damien was throwing in fact nothing was going to make her care in this world, and If there's a next, she wouldn't even beat an eyes“That nonsense you did back there you thought was funny, what if everyone believed you?” “Why wouldn't they believe me, none of it was a lie” Aella shruggedAella scater so many months still wondered why Damien's lying capability still shook her,,.“Why does he l
