All Chapters of SEDUCING MY EX’s FATHER FOR REVENGE : Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

But as I was about turning around and walking out of the office, my eyes fell on something.I froze in my tracks, the air suddenly heavier around me. My gaze locked onto the photograph on the shelf, an image that seemed out of place among the neatly arranged books and polished wood. It wasn’t the frame that caught my attention but the two men captured within it.I walked closer to the table and saw that the men looked familiar. Realization dawned on me as it clicked that one of the men in the picture was my father, younger and healthier than I remembered. His usual easy smile looked forced, his arm slung around a man I immediately recognized.Damien.The Damien I knew was hardened, closed off, and brooding. But here, in this picture, he looked different- vulnerable, almost normal. He was smiling as he stared at the camera with a carefree expression on his face. His face carried an innocence I had never seen before, and it unsettled me. What is a picture of my father doing here in Dam

“Amanda,” he warned through clenched teeth, his voice low and filled with menace, “do not push me.”His closeness to me sent tingles spreading across my body and my skin burned from where he was holding on to me but, I refused to let my heart win over my brain. I wasn’t going to back down so easily. “Why are you being so defensive over this little thing? It’s just a picture frame,” I said, my voice trembling. “What are you hiding?”“I’m not hiding anything and you have no right to question me,” he replied me, his voice coldly calm. “But, you have crossed a line that I had drawn between us long ago, Amanda. You shouldn’t be here.”His words stung, but I refused to let it show. I pulled my wrist free from his grasp and held the photograph up between us. “Then explain this,” I said, my voice cracking. “Explain why you have a picture of him. Explain why-““Enough!” He snapped, his voice echoing through the empty and silent room. I jumped a little at how loud his voice was, my breath caug

I walked out Damein’s office, not sparing him another look as I went in search of Andrew. I prayed silently and hoped that Damien hadn’t seen him, I didn’t want him to be affected by something of my own doing nor did I want him to lose his job because he had decided to help me out. When I was sure that I was out of sight and Dameon couldn’t see me, I pulled the documents I had gathered in his office out of my cloth where I had hidden it, letting out a sigh of relief and thankful that everything was still intact. I turned the corner and searched for Andrew but he was nowhere to be found. I assumed he had left so I made way for the elevator. When I entered into the elevator and as it descended, my mind was still racing with everything that had happened. I was tired and numb and I couldn’t think straight, no matter how much I tired to wrap my mind around what I had found out, it just wasn’t making any sense. The elevator dinged when it got to the ground floor, the door sliding open

Walking through the hallway of the firm was weird and I couldn’t still get over the way everyone was looking at me. It seemed that they were both proud of me and in shock that I could truly expose Ryan. Except from the way he had always acted out at the office, they didn’t know of Ryan’s dealings. I was supposed to feel relieved and happy that I had finally gotten rid of the person who put me through so much, the ones who made life miserable and even had the audacity to threaten me and that I had succeeded in my plan but all I felt was emptiness. My heart was aching and my chest tightened while Andrew held on to me as we walked past the gathered employees, they were whispering as usual but I couldn’t care less. I ignored their words and all I wanted to do was get out of there. This was going to be my last time in the firm and I was never going to step into it, so, I might as well deal with their reactions and get it behind me. Each step I took was heavy and the exit felt too far a

Andre ahead shown up at my door few hours later just like he had promised. During that time, I had scattered my house and searched for the documents again but it was still the same result. I was tired, frustrated and panicking. I didn’t know what to do and I couldn’t wrap my mind around all that had happened. I didn’t know why I kept fearing that something bad- something big was going to happen. Something that’d break me and everything I ever had my trust in. I was currently sitting on the couch in the living room and the soft hum of the TV was barely a distraction as Andrew paced back and forth across my apartment, his brow furrowed in concentration. The thoughts that someone might have been watching me and even trailing me still haunted my mind and I just couldn’t get oh over that fact, even though the weren’t here right now and had accomplished their mission.I felt stupid and mad at myself, I couldn’t explain why but I kept baling myself for everything. Only if I had been more
