Damien walked into the elevator with a smile on his face. By his side was his ex-wife, Harriet. He took hold of her hands as the elevator dinged. His plan was to show everyone that he was back with Harriet. He didn’t want the men at her company to think she was still single.

Harriet noticed what he was doing and only smiled, shifting closer to him. Everyone who was present in the lobby saw them and couldn’t hide their shock.

Both Harriet and Damien knew that they would be the trending topic the next day but, they didn’t care. It was about time people knew that their relationship was blossoming again.

Damien took Harriet to a five-star restaurant and ordered her favorite Italian pasta and chicken breasts. After lunch, he waited at her office until she was done before taking her home again.

By the time he arrived at his house, it was already 8:36pm. Tired from the day’s activity, Damien took a bath and hurried to bed. He was about to drift to sleep when his phone rang. Since he wasn’t i

    Adrian balled his fists and growled inwardly at Damien, jealousy and annoyance cursing through his veins.All of a sudden, Damien no longer wanted to leave Harriet’s office. The fact that Adrian was there made him feel the need to stick around. He couldn’t trust Adrian, and it wasn’t a hidden fact that the man was in love with Harriet.No! He just couldn’t leave.“You should leave, Adrian. Harriett is a bit busy,” Damien said, and Adrian smiled, but it didn’t get to his eyes. He was beyond pissed.“Weren’t you leaving, brother?” He asked, raising his brows at Damien.“It’s none of your business, Adrian. Leave.” Damien said one last time before going back into Harriet’s office. Just before the door closed, Adrian heard Harriett’s tender voice.“Damien! I thought you left. Is everything okay?” He heard her say, but before he could hear Damien’s response, the door closed, shutting him out.To say that Adrian felt humiliated and embarrassed would be an understatement. He looked at Collin,

    The next morning, Damien arrived at his office at exactly 7:00am as he wanted to finish up some of the work he had for the day quickly and go to Harriet's. Harriet had arranged a meeting with her lawyer as she was the only registered parent to her children. Damien made a mental note to change that as soon as possible. They were to be in court at 10:30am to get the paperwork done for their son, Adrian, and officially change his name.By 9:50am, Damien was done with his work and headed to Harriet’s office. When he got there, she had finished some of her work and set the rest aside for the evening. “Shall we?” He stretched out his hands to her, which she took happily, a blush making its way to her cheeks. “Have you thought of a name?” She asked once they were seated in the car. This time around, she wanted him to pick out the name himself, not just because she had made a mistake the first time, but because she knew that it would make him happy. This would be his first time participati

    “No!” Evelyn shook her head, pulling her hands away from the officer. “You can’t do this to me, Damien! You can’t.” She screamed at Damien, but Harriet blocked her from getting to him and landed another slap on her face. Evelyn’s eyes widened in shock, anger cursing through her veins.“This is for framing me four years ago.” Harriet said and slapped her again. “This is for kidnapping me and my children and trying to kill me.” She said and, landed continuous slaps on her face, pouring out her anger until Damien grabbed her by the waist and pulled her away.“Please, take her away.” Damien instructed the police officers, who nodded and started dragging Evelyn away. Just before she left, she turned around with red eyes to face Damien.“I love you, Damien, and I’ll never give up on you. This cannot be the end.” She said and turned to Harriett with a psychotic smirk before the officers dragged her away.As soon as she left, Harriet slumped on the bed, holding her chest as she breathed out i

    “I have been arrested, Adrian. Those fuckers put me behind bars. You have to get me out, baby.” Evelyn cried as soon as she heard Adrian’s. Meanwhile, Adrian shut his eyes and gripped his hair as he internally cursed Evelyn. He quickly cut the call and switched of his phone.“I fucking new that she would mess things up,” He screamed, throwing his phone across the room. He knew how the police operated, so he knew that they were going to track him using his number.'That fucking stupid bitch!'. “Now that she has been caught, she wants to implicate me too? No fucking way.” He said and grabbed his keys, but a call from his second phone stopped him. He only used the previous phone to communicate with Evelyn and handle matters regarding his slush phone. Thinking it might be an important call, he picked up.“You fucking Traitor! You think you can abandon me? Huh, Adrian? You’re wrong if you think I’ll go down alone!” He heard Evelyn threaten, her words laced with venom.“How the fuck did y

    “The present is all that matters, Harriet.” Damien said, and kissed her, more passionately this time.Harriet gave in to the kiss, letting his taste distract her from her pain. Damien lifted her in his arms and carried her, taking the stairs that led to his room. While they walked, their lips were still connected as all they wanted to do was savor each other’s bodies. ‘It is long overdue.’ Damien thought as he quickly opened the door and placed her softly on his bed. He pulled out of the kiss and stared at her, watching as she struggled to catch her breath.“Let me make love to you.” He said and kissed her forehead tenderly. Words couldn’t describe how Harriet felt, hearing him say those words.It was going to be their first time together. Well, second, but Harriet wasn’t going to count the first because he had no memory of it. Harriet wrapped her hands around his neck, placing a brief kiss on his lips before nodding her head in approval. With a smile on his face, Damien began to un

    Damien felt a movement beside him and when he opened his eyes, he was met with Harriet’s sleeping figure, her body snuggled up against him. He wrapped his arms around her and pulled her closer as a faint smile appeared on his lips. Taking a peek at the window, he could tell that it was already morning. A groan left his lips and he shut his eyes, pretending not to have noticed the bright morning sun.He didn’t want his moment with Harriet to end just yet. Ten minutes later, Harriet’s eyes fluttered open but was met by Damien’s bare chest, which was directly in front of her. A blush crept up to her face as she remembered all that happened last time. As a matter of fact, her insides still ached, and she could still feel him inside her. It felt like it was her first time and she found the pain pleasurable. If she didn’t have to go to the office that morning, she would definitely be up for a second round.She managed to raise her head from his chest and was immediately met with a bright

    Harriet walked into her office at exactly 10am and, as expected, she got a lot of judgmental stares from some of the workers who interpreted her lateness as a privilege she got for being the chairman’s daughter. Harriet kept her shoulders straight and her chin up, and she walked through the lobby, making her way to the elevator. Just as the doors were about to close, a hand stopped it and, to her surprise, it was Alexa. Releasing a soft breath, Harriet prepared herself for what was to come.“Miss Edward! I see that you have finally decided to show up. For a moment, I thought you would be taking the day off despite staying away from the company for two weeks.” Alexa smiled pretentiously.“I didn’t expect you to worry about me so much, Alexa. I am really touched.” Harriet replied with a matching smile, keeping her head high. She was not going to look like a weakling before Alexa.“Believe me, Harriet, I wasn’t…”“Save it, Alexa. I don’t have the time to exchange words with you today. A

    “I didn’t realize this earlier because I didn’t take my time to think and investigate but, Adrian Daniels was Bethany’s boyfriend ten years ago. My guess is that they are still working together.” Tony finished and looked back up at Harriet only to find her staring at him like he was a clown. “Did you hear a thing I said, Harriet?” He asked, wondering why it seemed like she didn’t hear him. A few seconds later, Harriet chuckled and shook her head, taking a sip from her glass of apple juice that was already on the table. “Do you have any evidence, Tony? You see, I totally understand that I have not been a good friend to you since I arrived in New York, which is why I can totally understand your pain. But, you should know that I wouldn’t just believe things like this without proper evidence.” She cleared her throat and straightened her posture. “As someone who was a victim of lies, I cannot do that to another person.” She finished. “I don’t care if you do not believe me, Harriet. I am

    As the party continued, Tony mingled with some of the people he was familiar with. He also made sure that Lily was by his side at all times.“Who is this beautiful lady, Tony?” Various people asked and he gave them the same response which still came as a shock to all of them.As the conversation with some of Tony’s business partners got more intense, Lily decided to leave them for a bit.“I’ll be in the restroom for a bit.” She whispered to Tony who gave a brief nod. His eyes followed her until she disappeared, making sure no one followed her into the restroom.As she walked, she couldn’t help but admire the hallway that led to the restroom. It had been decorated beautifully with flowers as though it was a part of the party hall.Mehdi might be a terrible person but he had good taste.She entered the restroom and to her relief, it was empty. She washed her hands for some relief and leaned on the wall, hoping to give Tony and his friends some time to finish up their conversation.A few

    “She’s my girlfriend,” Tony announced with his arms wrapped around Lily and his expression stern. Lily’s eyes widened but she quickly composed herself as she didn’t want to be noticed by the reporters who were watching them like a hawk. After Tony’s big reveal, the reporters erupted into chaos and they began raining questions on Tony, each of them eager to know how and when he got a girlfriend because most of the people in the country were starting to think he was gay or just hated women. There was a time he was spotted in public with Daisy and photos started circulating online as people began to spread rumors about him having a child. They also went on the search for who the mystery woman might be and at that time, he was close friends with Harriet who already had two children and was always around him. So, to avoid getting her in trouble, he quickly denied the accusations and revealed that Daisy was his niece, bringing Rachael as proof. “How long have you known her for, Dr Martin

    “Oliver? What the fuck does he want with you?” Tony asked, his expression hardening as he saw the texts on Lily’s phone.“Oh, it’s nothing. He’s just checking up on me since he didn’t see me at work. I have been helping him out at the hospital.” Lily explained innocently.“Can I see?” Tony asked and Lily freely handed him her phone for him to go through their texts.As Tony read through the messages, he realized that Oliver had been keeping tabs on Lily without her knowing. He used normal questions that wouldn’t look fishy to keep track of her activities and Lily who was as naive as a child kept giving him the information he needed.“What’s wrong?” Lily asked when she saw the angry look on Tony’s face. She wondered what he had seen on her phone that made him angry.“This Oliver guy. I have a feeling that there’s more to him. You need to be careful around him.” Tony warned and Lily frowned, taking her phone and pocketing it.“Don’t tell me you’re jealous of him, Tony.” Lily sighed. “We

    Three Days Later.Lily rolled over to hit the snooze button on her phone as the alarm pierced through her sleep.“Five more minutes..” She hummed like a five-year-old.Just as she was about drifting off to sleep she suddenly remembered that she had to be at the hospital.“Shit!” She exclaimed and jumped off the bed. When she checked her phone, she saw that it was a few minutes past eight which meant that she had less than an hour to prepare for work.She quickly jumped into the shower and in a few minutes, she was out. Once she was all dressed up, she hurried downstairs to meet with Tony who was expected to be waiting for her.When she arrived at the living room, she found Tony sitting on a sofa with Rachael both laughing at a joke that was cracked by him.Sensing a presence behind, Tony turned and found Lily staring at them with curiosity written all over her face.“Good morning, Lily.” Tony greeted with a smile.“Morning, Tony. Morning, Rachael.” She greeted. “Why didn't you wake me

    Lily sat at her desk, going through the files for the patients she would be sending handling. When she finished, she grabbed her tools and headed to the pediatric ward.As she walked into the brightly colored room, she spotted a little girl who didn’t look anything above six seated on her bed with a stuffed bunny clutched to her chest.She had a beanie on her head to cover her baldness as she had lost most of her hair to cancer but despite her frail frame and the IV connected to her arm, her eyes sparkled with warmth and happiness.“Good morning, my darling.” Lily greeted with a warm smile as she approached her bedside. “How are you feeling today?” Lily asked, checking her temperature.The girl looked up and smiled brightly, her eyes shining with excitement. “I am okay, Nurse Lily. They served me my favorite today! Chocolate pudding!!” She squealed and Lily chuckled.“You like chocolate pudding more than your medicines, don’t you?” Lily asked, touching her cheeks playfully.“Yes!

    “This is about Lily, isn’t it?” Rachael asked with her brows raised. “Yes, it is.” Tony agreed, taking his hands up. “You know how she feels about you not speaking to her right?” He asked and Rachael’s expression shifted to sadness. “I’ll be honest with you, Tony. I think I was too harsh on her. I have been feeling this way for a while but I do not know how to apologize to her. I fear I might have hurt her badly. She avoids me these days and I can see fear in her eyes whenever we meet.” Racheal lamented with a pained expression. Tony let out a sigh of relief and a light smile. He was glad that Rachael was thinking that way. “All you have to do is let her know that you are not upset with her and you want things to return to how they were.” He said. “The good part is, you have the opportunity to do that today.” He smiled. Before he heard her speak, he was going to tell her what Lily’s surprise was and plead with her not to make Lily feel bad but now, he planned on letting Lily do he

    A smirk appeared on Tony’s face as he stared at the email from the office of Mehdi King. It seemed like God was on his side. The timing was perfect. Ever since he found out about him being the leader of the SNAKERS, he had wanted an opportunity to meet him and this had just been given to him on a platter of gold. He was going to take Lily as his plus one since it would be her first time attending an event with him by her side. To Tony, it was a way of announcing her to the world as his partner as well as preparing her for the life ahead. He quickly made his way upstairs and placed a light knock on Lily’s door. A few seconds later, she heard the door click and it opened to reveal Lily with a towel tied tightly around her chest. Her hair and some part of her body were slightly wet and he understood that she had just got out of the shower. Even though he had made a promise not to think of anything sexual around her, his eyes and body seemed to have a mind of their own. It was to

    “She is all by herself, boss. This is the perfect time to take her. Give us the order and consider it done.” One of the men said into the phone with his eyes still glued to Lily as she headed back to the hospital on foot.A sigh was heard from the line, a sign of hesitation from Louis and one of the men concluded that Louis wouldn’t be able to give the order since Lily was his ex-girlfriend. So, he gave a sign to the man who was on the call with him, telling him to go ahead with the initial plan regardless of what Louis instructs.“What is your conclusion, boss?” The man asked, hoping Louis would go ahead with the plan but, there was still hesitation from him so, they decided to end the call and kidnap Lily before she was completely out of sight.They left their hiding place and began approaching Lily but just as they were about to get close to her, Tony came out of nowhere and wrapped his hands around her, oblivious to what was about to happen. The men immediately took a U-turn and r

    “Also, the man she is with now is Tony Martinez, the owner of TM Hospital.”At the mention of Tony’s name, a frown appeared on Mehdi’s face as he visibly tensed up. “Tony Martinez?” He asked again to be sure Louis didn’t make a mistake.“Are you sure?”“Yes, Draco. I have seen him in person myself.” Louis replied and Mehdi gritted his teeth in anger.Tony was no stranger to him. He had received a lot of donations from Tony and had even given his donations to Tony’s hospital. He had exchanged pleasantries with him at various events, parties, and award ceremonies so, he knew that Tony was a patriotic citizen who frowned at corruption.If Louis’s girlfriend opens her mouth and reveals his secret to Tony, he is sure he and his gang will be done for.Draco let out a long sigh, his face hardening as he processed the information he had just received. “I know Tony Martinez alright. We’ve met a few times. Events, awards, parties… and I can tell you this, he is a fucking poster boy for patrioti
