Damien gazed at Aella's smile for a long while before coming back to his senses as he remembered what he had promised himself: that he wouldn’t fall for Aella, and the only way to avoid that was by being aggressive and mean to her, which was what he was about to do despite how badly he wanted to taste any of the dishes on the table.

“Did I ask you to prepare breakfast for me?” Damien asked Aella, who was stunned to hear him say that.

“I wanted his morning to be an easy one for you where you didn’t have to really worry about anything but yourself.” Aella replied to Damien in fright.

“You should learn to always ask for permission before doing anything, and this ain’t your house to be making unnecessary decisions and making the house too noisy and uncomfortable for the current owner!!” He yelled at Aella as she suddenly felt embarrassed and tried to hold back the tears. Aella couldn’t understand why he was being so bad and mean to her, and despite how hard she was trying to please him, he

    Damien couldn’t still believe that Aella was snubbing him in his own house. He stood up immediately and went after her to the sitting room. She was just about to go to sleep, but he couldn’t just let her slip away with what she had just done.“Aella! Did you just avoid me?” Damien questioned him, and slowly Aella turned to him.“Yeah.” She whispered and turned away, backing Damien yet again.“I was only trying to correct you.” Damien insisted, as he couldn’t point out why she was acting that way.“You threw my food away. I know you hate me because of what I did to you the first day we met, but that doesn’t mean you have to shove it on my face that you hate me so much!!” Aella yelled before stomping off. Damien decided to visit his mother to ask for advice, as he didn’t want to fall in love with her but had no choice.“So why are you here when your honeymoon isn’t over yet?” His mother began as they sat opposite each other in Damien's garden.“I need your advice.” Damien began, but deep

    Aella was directed to the room where her grandmother was, and the guards didn’t for once stop following her.She prayed in anticipation for her grandmother before slowly opening the door to the room, and her grandmother was lying there silently.“Grandma” Aella called out, and to her greatest surprise, her grandmother turned her head in her direction, as she couldn’t hold back her tears, and ran straight to her, hugging her very tightly.“My child, why the tears? As you can see, I am perfectly fine.” Her grandmother said this to Aella while cleaning the tears off her cheeks.“I heard you were able to find a donor for me. That must have been really difficult for you.” She continued as Aella didn’t care about anything and was only very happy that Damien had kept to the promise, and for this alone, she was ready to bear all the pain and ache that came with being Damien's wife, even if he wouldn’t ever find anything she did significant.“I have good news for you, grandmother.” Aella began

    Damien held his cheeks tightly as he tried not to unleash all his anger on her.“What did you just do??” Damien questioned Aella, but instead all she did was try to walk away, but this time Damien wasn’t going to allow it. He pulled her back and slammed her back harshly against the wall, making her wince in pain.“You are hurting me, Damien." She cooed, but Damien had already had enough of her, and instead of letting go of her, he held her even more fiercely and tighter in her way that she couldn’t move.“Do you think just because I let you go for slapping me the other time means I would let you go now? Don’t ever try it, Aella!! Don’t you dare ever try it, or else I will make the rest of your days in my house more than miserable. I don’t mind you hating me for life, but don’t you dare slap me again!!!” He yelled at Aella, making her shiver nervously at his words as she nodded positively.“I won’t touch you anymore. Please don’t punish me. I beg of you." She pleaded, unable to wait for

    Aella understood what Damien's mother was trying to say, as she was fully aware that the mother understood they didn't really love each other as they claimed to, but still had them change to love each other.“You two should never tell anyone what is happening between you, even though I really want to know about everything going on, but that doesn't mean you should tell me everything too. You should have your secrets, but with all this, it doesn't mean you all won't make me the first person you tell when our baby and unborn child arrive.”“Thank you, mother.” Damien said, slowly walking his mother out of the house as she ran back to hug Aella one more time before rushing out."Goodbye, Aella!!” his mother yelled.Damien soon walked in with a frown, like his mother hadn't just leaked out all his secrets.“I will be going upstairs; in case you need anything, just let me know.” Damien was about to walk away, but when he noticed no one was replying to him, he turned around to Aella with a c

    “I don’t want the both of us to fight anymore; I am always worried and bothered by what you are thinking, and I hate being worried about someone.” Damien whispered even from his sleep, making Aella smile in satisfaction. Aella was happy that he was still trying to avoid any problems with her, and he was now more like a changed person.“Should I make dinner for you before you wake up?” Aella whispered, hoping to hear what Damien would say.“Yes, make most of them like the one you made the other day. I loved them.” He muttered, making Aella giggle joyfully at how everything was slowly turning out to be.“Okay, I will prepare a grand dinner for you.” Aella said and rushed straight to the kitchen, bringing out all the delicate and important ingredients as she turned the kitchen upside down just to make sure everything came out perfectly.She was soon done with everything made for the grand dinner, and just as she headed towards Damien to wake him up, she sluggishly stood up and rubbed his

    Damien broke the silence with a loud chuckle as he paced around, still laughing. “You think our contract is that stupid, or do you think you can just break it whenever you want!!?"Damien asked Aella, who was still trying to act as bravely as possible. “Your words won’t get through to me that easily. I have made up my mind to leave this marriage; I don’t mind being your slave.” Aella said this to Damien, who chuckled even louder.“You can’t walk out of this marriage; why is it so hard for you to understand that?" Damien yelled before rushing towards Aella, who was quick to notice his movements and was now sure that he was coming to hit her, which she immediately dodged.“You can’t hit me, Damien; I didn’t marry you to become a punching bag." Aella said this to Damien, who was surprised to see her try to outsmart him. “I wasn’t going to hit you; I just wanted to warn you to stay away from me and stop acting like you can end this marriage. You can’t!!!” Damien said with a frustrated glar

    "What condition?" Aella questioned."I will have to stay here for two days and see how that man treats you. I want to know what kind of person he is." Collins told her, and she sighed."Collins, you know that I can't take that decision on my own; I'll have to go talk to him before I can say anything to you." Aella said, and Collins agreed. They both went back into the living room and met Damien in the same position as when they left him. He pretended not to see them coming into the room."Um.. Damien?" Aella called. Damien turned his neck in her direction, remaining mute."I need to ask you for something." She lowered her head."What?" He asked, staring from her to Collins, busy wondering what they were talking about in the kitchen."It's about my brother. You know he just came back, and right now, he has nowhere to go. So, until he finds a place to stay, he wishes to stay here for two days." Aella tried to explain it as calmly as possible. She did not like Damien and always had to sub

    Aella stomped into her room angrily as she shut the door and laid on her bed, also grateful that Collins had just left and that now she would have a good night's rest without him and Damien getting into another heated argument.“I just cannot wait for a year to pass so all this can be over.” Aella muttered to herself before slowly drifting away to a deep sleep. Aella's phone was the first to wake her up, and just as she stood up to pick it up, Damien also started banging harshly on her door, as she was frustrated with who to answer, as she didn’t even know who was calling since the caller identification showed none.Aella opened the door to see Damien. "What do you want from me?" Aella asked Damien, who had no time to reply to all her ranting and just pulled her out of the bedroom.“Why are you pulling me out?" She continued, but he didn’t let go of her till they were both in front of the bathroom.“Take your bath; we are five minutes late already.” Damien finally said that to her, and

    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

    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
