All Chapters of Destined to love: Chapter 221 - Chapter 230

Lisa was waiting anxiously for Ben. She didn’t know if he suspected her since he didn’t call her like he usually did when he was drugged. She purposely greeted him at the dinner to make him aware that she was at the dinner. But the call never came. She couldn’t come to work earlier even though she wanted to as she had taken a week off preemptively. According to their plan, she would let Ben know that she could only give herself if he signed the marriage papers. They assumed that since he didn’t have any other options, he would comply. Her original intention for requesting time off was to give everyone at the company to adjust their mindset to the change in her status. She had written on her leave form that she was going home to spend time with her folks in the countryside. She couldn’t cancel her leave, she had to follow through in order not to let Ben suspect her. She knew his shrewdness, once he knew, her fate would be worse than death itself. She had left the next morning without w

Monday morning- Lisa arrived early, she wanted to chat with Ben before anyone came. She had collected details of Dana’s past during the weekend with the help of her special friend. She knew Ben and Shadow arrived at 8:00 am sharp; the office only started at 8:30, this was plenty of time for her to talk to Ben uninterrupted. However, Ben didn’t arrive until 9:00, just before he was about convene a meeting. Lisa acted like she was delegated to assist with the meeting and rushed about doing stuff without giving Freida and the other two a chance to even ask if their assistance was needed. Shadow made sure Ben was aware as he had more oversight of the secretaries’ room, and he knew Ben was in his own blissful world. Ben walked out with Shadow as he would normally with Lisa following in tow. He stopped in front of the secretaries’ room “Why aren’t you joining?” “We… we…” Piper stuttered. “We thought Lisa was attending.” Freida spoke with a nonchalant expression. She was not afraid. She

Ben saw Lisa coming up to him from the corner of his eyes and nodded to Ed. He had promised Dana that he wouldn’t interfere, but he didn’t say his friends would behave. Ed stretched his legs lazily even though he had Lara in his arms as Lisa reached him, he was standing a few feet away from Dana and Ben. Dana was standing nestled in Ben’s embrace and Lisa landed face forward a few inches away from Dana. “Are you alright?” Arora rushed forward to help her up and turned to yell at Ed. She had no idea who Ed was, but she knew Lara. They were competitors and the bitch who got the Peli contract. “You don’t have to fall at her feet to beg forgiveness.” Lara snickered before Arora got her chance. She felt Ed was too handsome. “I…. Major General…” Lisa lowered her head, her eyes brimmed with tears as she lifted her eyes to look at Ed with grievance. Arora paused as she saw Lisa’s attitude towards Ed; She was a smart woman; she knew how to read people. “Ben…” Lisa turned her pitiful perf

Dana shook her head with a smile seeing Esmond’s eagerness. She drew a rose and gave it him “Cut this design from this stone.” She handed him the rhodochrosite crystal she picked up “The bigger the better. Also leave two drill holes on the petals at the back “Bigger means?” Esmond was good with his hands, but he needed exact dimensions. “Would you be able to get a 5-8 cm one from this?” Dana pursed her lips. “Sure” “Alright then, make it 8” “Er…” Esmond pulled his ears “When do you need it by?” “Would day after tomorrow be too soon?” Dana wrinkled her brows. “Nope.” Esmond shrugged and muttered as he walked away “Who needs to sleep anyway?” Dana giggled as she handed the stones she had selected. “Is that everything madam?” “Please… call me Dana.” Dana frowned “I wanted a deep pink-brown round stone, but it wasn’t here.” Marcen scratched the back of his head as he took inventory in his head. “I have one, but it is slightly large, about this big.” He made a circle with his ha

Ben pressed Dana on the bed to sleep before sending a message to Tael saying Dana was not coming to work. He turned off Dana’s alarm before falling asleep with her in his arms. Ben woke up 3 hours later by a knock on the door. He left the room silently. Mrs Bentley was waiting outside. “Ben, Madam’s friend is here.” “I will come.” Ben went back to the room quietly and bought the package Dana had packed. Lara was waiting with Ed in the living area. “I regret giving you this painting.” Ed sighed as he saw Ben coming down the stairs. “Too late.” Ben smirked as he sat down. He pushed the sets towards Lara “She just went to sleep at 6 in the morning. They are all there.” Lara took the set happily. “Can I see?” Ed stretched his neck to see inside. “She has arranged it with the dress design. Why don’t you look at the pictures?” Ben passed his phone. “Oh my god!” Lara shrieked in excitement “I am going to be wearing all these.” “Can you bid this set for me?” Lara pointed at the pea
