Damien 191.I was calling it a day after the meeting with Senator Kelly. There was something sinister about the man that I could not put my finger on but I was certain that I did not trust him one bit. I closed the door to my office and headed for the elevator."Who are you?" I asked as went out of my office to see a lady sitting behind a desk meant for the secretary.The seat had been vacant ever since I took the position of CEO but I had not appointed a secretary ever since nor did I ever have the intention to."I am your new secretary," The lady replied."I did not hire a new secretary, why are you here?" I curtly retorted."Ms. Camilla Valdez, she gave me this job, I am just doing what I am told," The lady said."What's your name?" I asked."Gia," She replied.I was willing to bet that Gia here was a spy sent to keep an eye on me. And it was obvious that I could not trust Gia. It was foolish to do so.As I settled into my office chair, the weight of the day's responsibilities bear

DamienAs I sat in my study, the weight of the day's events pressing down on me like a suffocating blanket, my mind raced with a thousand thoughts and worries. Isabella and I had paid a visit to her father, Emilio, seeking answers about his past involvement as the Puppeteer behind Renaissance. But what should have been a straightforward conversation had quickly devolved into chaos, with Emilio's uncouth behavior casting a shadow of unease over our already tumultuous lives.I couldn't shake the feeling of apprehension that gnawed at me from within, a sense of foreboding that whispered of danger lurking just beyond the horizon. Enemies were emerging from the shadows, their motives murky and their intentions sinister. And as the walls closed in around us, I knew that I had to confront the looming threat head-on, to protect my family at all costs.Emilio was a man haunted by his past, his secrets a heavy burden that weighed him down like chains. And if he was not careful, that chain would

Damien 195.As I stepped out of Emilio's house, the weight of his words hung heavy on my shoulders like a suffocating shroud. The revelation of his true nature, as the mastermind behind the criminal activities plaguing our lives, left me reeling with a sense of dread and despair. How could I have been so blind to the darkness lurking within my wife's own father?Each step I took away from that house felt like a march towards an uncertain future, one fraught with danger and uncertainty. The image of Emilio, his cold gaze fixed upon me with a hint of malice, burned into my mind like a brand, a constant reminder of the sinister forces at play.As I climbed into my car and started the engine, the sound of its roar drowned out by the cacophony of thoughts swirling in my head. My hands gripped the steering wheel with white-knuckled intensity, the familiar comfort of the leather providing little solace in the face of the chaos raging within me.I drove home in silence, the road stretching out

Isabella 197."You know what?" Ava asked us excitedly. She had been giddy ever since her son came to pay her a visit. Due to the turbulence at work, Damien came here after a long day."What?" I asked."Let's go on a family trip just the three of us, let us just get away from everything, we can clear our heads that way," She replied in an excited manner.It was not a bad idea. I was a stay at home wife so I had all the time in the world. Plus I was also carrying his child so maybe a vacation was the next best thing."Damien? Would it be possible to have you all to myself for a few days?" I jokingly asked my husband."Yes, he would love to," Ava answered for him. Damien had on a huge grin."When do we leave?" Damien asked. I turned to him, puzzled."You want us to go now?" I asked just to be sure that I heard him correctly."Why wait? Besides, Renaissance can wait to kill me another day," He said with a shrug."That was not funny, Damien," Ava said."My apologies," He jokingly replied.

Damien 199.As I sat at my desk in the bustling chaos of the office, my mind buzzed with anticipation and unease. Camilla Valdez, the enigmatic figure who had mysteriously inserted herself into my life, was due to arrive any moment now, and I couldn't shake the feeling that her presence heralded trouble.I glanced at the clock, the seconds ticking by agonizingly slow as I waited for her arrival. With each passing moment, the tension in the air thickened, a palpable sense of anticipation hanging over the office like a dark cloud.And then, she appeared - Camilla Valdez, with her steely gaze and calculating smile, striding confidently into the room as if she owned the place. My heart skipped a beat as our eyes met, a surge of apprehension coursing through my veins at the sight of her."Damien," she greeted me with a nod, her voice smooth and composed. "I trust you've been keeping busy in my absence?"I clenched my jaw, my fists tightening involuntarily as her c
