That same night, Harriett got a text from Damien who asked for an opportunity to see the twins the next day. How he got her number was still a mystery to her but she didn’t bother saving his number as she planned on avoiding him as much as she could.After much deliberation, she finally agreed but with a condition that he would report every of their activities to her in real time. It was her way of ensuring that her children wouldn't spend even a second with that wicked Evelyn.She knew that her ex-husband could be easily manipulated by that sly fox.All that was left was the hardest part- Telling the twins about their father.It shouldn’t be hard especially since they had been wanting a father but Harriett couldn’t help but feel like she had cheated them for years when she had to lie about the whereabouts of their father. A few months later and she was revealing a man to them.It made her feel terrible.“You’re doing the right thing, Su ji. No matter how much you resent him, at the en
“Daddy!” Addison screamed from where she stood and both men turned to her and immediately a smile appeared on both their faces. But het tiny legs mover towards Tony and wrapped her tiny arms around his legs. Damien felt his heart tighten and suddenly his eyes stung as he watched his daughter happily run to his rival. That was his daughter calling another man her father. To say that he was angry would be an understatement.He needed to speak to Harriett and find out how she could let them call him their father when she wasn’t even in a romantic relationship with him.What right did he have to be called that?“Come here, my love.” Tony said on purpose and carried Addison in his arms while Adrian stared at Damien.Harriett couldn’t raise her head to look at Damien because she knew that he would be fuming. “He isn’t your father, Addison.” She sighed and took her from Tony, guilt enveloping her.“This is your father….. your real father.” She revealed and the children just stared at Damien
Evelyn stood at the door with a confused look, not understanding why Damien was with a child. She was about opening her mouth to speak when she realized that it was the same child Harriett was with at Eric’s wedding. As that truth dawned on her, her mood suddenly changed and a surge of anger flowed through her veins. The thought that Harriett could be in this house with her children made her red with anger. She could already see Harriett winning the challenge by using her children and she wasn’t going to let that happen.“I’ll rather die than let Damien get back with that bitch and her children.” She said under her breath as she stared at Adrian.“You didn’t call, Evelyn. What are you doing here?” Damien asked with an unpleasant look on his face. He hated that she had to show when he was trying to spend some time with his son. This wasn’t good for him since he needed to prove to Harriett that he would be a good father to the twins. What father brings in another woman to his house in
“What can I do to make you come back to me?” Damien asked, his eyes begging Harriett. He knew that it would take years if he tried on his own so, he wanted to hear her own terms from her mouth. Maybe then, he’d be able to win her heart faster. Harriett on the other hand wasn’t ready for the conversation, especially with Adrian sleeping in her arms. But, she was still going to let him know how she felt before leaving. “Don’t you think you should earn my forgiveness first? Wanting me to come back to you is a big step. You need to start from the beginning, Damien. Goodnight.” And with that she left him to his thoughts and strolled into the house to tuck Adrian in. When she was done with Adrian and went to her room, she realized that she had the opportunity to make him kneel and beg for her forgiveness, thereby winning the challenge. But, what fun is it if Evelyn wasn’t there to witness it? Since it was still early, she went downstairs to join her father and Tony in their conversation
Damien left Eric’s house disturbed. Maybe it was because of what he said about reinvestigating the case from four years ago but, his mind was troubled. After the incident with Harriett four years ago, he found out the truth about the picture being fabricated but because of the guilt from sending Harriett away, he gave up finding the culprit. Evelyn was also in support of his decision to forget about the culprit and move on. Now that Eric brought it up, he realized that it would be the first step to winning Harriett’s heart once again.How didn’t he think of this before? Of course, Harriett wouldn’t want to have anything to do with him when he was unable to find and punish the person behind those pictures.Even his relationship with his brother, Adrian turned sour because of that incident. Since Adrian was also a victim in that incident, he decided to seek his help in exposing the culprit. “Well, look who it is.” Adrian’s voice boomed from the other side of the phone. “I’ll
“I think you should return to England and be with your family, Evelyn.” Damien said, still holding on to Evelyn and he felt her body suddenly stiffen. Evelyn's mood changed and her heart felt as though it had been shattered into a million pieces. She wondered what she had done that would make Damien talk about sending her back but she found nothing as to her, she had done nothing wrong. There was only one reason she could think of.Harriett! “It’s going to be best for you right now because I will no longer be able to spend time with you.” Damien revealed. It was still a wonder to him how she was able to live in New York for so long and still wasn't able to make a single friend except him. He didn’t want to believe it but his gut was telling him that she was doing it on purpose as a way of making sure that she was with him at all times. A few seconds went by and there was still no response from Evelyn so, he decided to reach out to her. “Evelyn?” Damien pulled out of the hug when
Immediately Damien said those words, Harriett removed her phone from her ears and ended the call. Throwing her phone on the kitchen counter as her heart raced.A few years ago, those words would have meant the world to her but now, she preferred not hearing it. How did it take him that long to finally fall in love with her and why was it only happening after she left? Harriett’s mind was a mess as she slumped on the kitchen stool. Five minutes later, she adjusted her position and recollected herself. As she took her phone and headed to her room, a smile appeared on her face.“It’s a good thing he loves me. It will only make my revenge more hurtful.” **“Harriett? Are you in there?” A knock on the door stirred her from her sleep and she jumped out of the bed when she recognized the voice to be her mother’s. “Goodness, Harriett. What were you doing last night to make you sleep in?” Ha Young asked as Harriett yawned and cleaned her eyes, getting rid of the dizziness.“Slept in? What
Tony was about giving Damien a befitting reply Damien’s phone suddenly rang out loud, putting a pause to their conversation. Damien who was so invested in the conversation he was about having with Tony wanted to end the call but after seeing who the caller was, he hurriedly swiped on his phone. “I found it, Damien. I found the fucker that was behind those pictures!” Adrian’s tone was enough to make him know that he wasn’t joking. Without even saying a word to Harriett, Damien ran out of her house like a mad man, tucking his phone into his pocket. He would come back the next day to see Addison. With how he left the house, Harriett thought that there was an emergency at the company and even though she wanted to ask, she held herself back. After that little drama she had put on with Tony, she was surprised that Damien wasn't phased by it. Maybe he was, maybe he wasn't. But, if he was, he certainly knew how to hide his emotions perfectly.Thankfully, the traffic on the streets on New Y
