“Adrian. I thought you were out of the country.” Harriett smiled awkwardly. She could sense the tension between the brothers and a part of her knew that she was the cause. “I returned an hour ago. I was missing my family.” Adrian replied with a smirk, shifting his gaze to Damien who was staring at him like he wanted nothing more than to pounce on him. “I finally get to meet my namesake. Should I just call you Adrian Junior? You already look so much like me.” Adrian said, going over to Harriett. He stretched his hands out to little Adrian but he hid himself in his mother’s neck instead.He wasn't wrong. Little Adrian did share a resemblance with him but that was only because he was Damien's brother. “He doesn’t know who you are, brother. Don’t push your luck. Also, my son looks nothing like you.” Damien replied with gritted teeth. The air suddenly got thick and the tension between the two brothers was starting to make the environment unbearable for the others present. “Why don’t yo
“Dad? Mum called. She said there’s an emergency.” Damien said as he entered his father’s study. Thomas Daniels was seated in front of his computer with his glasses on, completely immersed in his work. As Damien announced his presence, he shut his laptop down and faced his son. “Sit, son.” He gestured to the seat that was directly opposite him. “I’m sure you have met your brother already.” Thomas cleared his throat. He didn’t want to ruin the weekend but he needed to update Damien on the recent happening so he could be alert. “Adrian has decided to move to New York, permanently.” Thomas announced and Damien’s jaw ticked in annoyance. “He wants to become CEO for the headquarters which is the same thing as taking ownership of the company.” He revealed and Damien couldn’t hide the shock on his face. Adrian was really crossing his boundaries. “I haven’t given him an answer, if that is what you are worried about. But, I just might. Over the past month, you have been busy with your fami
“I don’t know you but I’m sure you already know that I don’t like you.” Tony said. He didn’t just hate Evelyn because she was Harriet’s enemy. He got a weird vibe from her and it also felt like he had known her before now but he couldn’t recall where. All he knew was that he didn’t like her. “You don’t even know me, darling. Don’t you think you came to that conclusion a little too fast.” Evelyn chuckled, taking a sip from her wine which she ordered while waiting for Tony. “What do you want, Evelyn?” He asked, leaning back in his seat as he held her in an intense gaze. “I have a proposal for you. One that you’d be foolish to refuse.” Evelyn smiled, batting her false lashes at him. Tony raised his brows in amusement as she wondered what she could possibly have that would make her so confident. “You want Harriett, don’t you?” Evelyn asked and the smirk that was once on Tony’s face vanished as his expression changed to a serious one. “I’d love to see where this is headed.” He adjust
“You’re angry but it’s not because of me.” Harriet said as soon as Damien returned to his room. He was shocked to see that she was still there after what happened between them an hour ago. He wondered why she waited for him to return. Damien entered his room huffing and puffing in anger after what his conversation with his father. “Go to your room, Harriett.” He walked to his closet, completely ignoring her presence. “I’m sorry but, do you think I came here because I want to spend time with your parents? Do you think I felt it was time to bond with your family so I decided to leave mine and be with yours?” Harriett was not happy with his behavior and she was not going to hide her feelings. “Isn’t that why you’re here?” Damien chuckled dryly from the closet as he took off his clothes and changed into something more comfortable. “Bullshit, Damien.” She got up and walked into the closet, not even bothering that he was changing his clothes. In this case, she would say he used to be
Harriett was still in her room with Adrian when Stacy announced that dinner was ready. She didn’t realize how much time she had spent with Adrian just talking about the old times. They finally left the room to join the others for dinner. They were still talking and laughing about a joke Adrian made when Damien walked out of his room and saw them. Harriett paused for a few minutes as she stared at him, remembering their encounter earlier while Adrian placed a hand on her shoulder, acting like he didn’t see Damien standing and led her to the dinning table. Damien could only grit his teeth at his brother’s antics. Adrian was only trying to spite him and he knew this but why was he still bothered by him?“I was worried you guys weren’t going to join us. The twins have been waiting.” Stacy laughed as Harriett placed a kiss on her twins.“You should’ve called me to help, mother. You didn’t have to do all of this yourself.” Harriett pouted as she stared at the table which was filled w
All through that night, Damien found it hard to sleep as he kept remembering the look on Harriet’s face when he tried forcing himself on her. He shouldn’t have done that but his mind was clouded with jealousy and the whiskey he took a few minutes before going to her room made things worse.He wanted to give himself a punch in the face for doing that to her. Now, all he could do was think of a way to rectify his mistake. That was a really foolish move on his path. Knowing Harriett, it would take a lot to get her forgiveness. Their relationship had just taken steps backward because of that act. The next morning, Harriett woke up early as she wanted to join Stacy in preparing breakfast. While in the kitchen, she overheard some of the maids gossiping about how she was trying to act like a wife as a way of winning Stacy’s heart. They thought she was trying to come back into the house permanently as Damien’s wife. Harriett scoffed. She was no longer certain of her decision to give Damie
Harriett was going through some of the emails from Colin, her assistant. A tired groan left her lips as she realized that being away from the office for two weeks had left her with a pile of work. She was about sending a response to Colin when Stacy walked into the room.“Hey. I and Thomas will be taking the kids on a ride. We’ll be back before it’s dark, okay?” She smiled and left the room, leaving Harriett.As soon as Stacy left the room, it suddenly dawned on her that it was going to be just her and Damien in the house. “Oh, Mother. I see what you’re trying to do.” Harriett sighed, shutting her laptop down as she threw a pillow on her head and screamed into it.She thought of just staying in her room until Stacy returned but it would make Damien think she was avoiding him so, she decided to take a walk and probably stop by the wine bar.When she got there, she was surprised to see that Damien was already seated with a glass of wine that looked like it hadn’t been touched. He
Tony stared at his phone with bloodshot eyes, gripping it tightly. He lifted his eyes to look at the building and all he could see was Harriett and Damien entangled in white sheets, making love. His heart tightened at that imagination and jealousy filled him. “Sir? Do I notify Mrs Daniels if your presence?” The middle aged man said and Tony turned to him, his body shaking with anger. “Miss Edward.” He corrected through gritted teeth, making the poor man writhe in fear. “She isn’t married to that man.” Tony said, contemplating on his decisions. A few seconds later, he came to a conclusion. “I’ll be waiting in the living room. Let Harriett know that I am here.” He said and walked into the building, being led by the middle aged man. Meanwhile, Harriett and her ex-husband, Damien were having their moment and had moved from the wine bar to Damien’s room, both lost in each other’s arms. Harriet’s heart was thumping loudly as she anticipated their first real sex. As Damien laid her on
