Avery had seen them walking in, when she saw them, thwy hadn't realized she was there. She had heard about how good they looked togethrr and that was what prompted her to look at the entrance. She didn't exoect that the people her colleagues were talking about was her husband and his stupid mistress. Her blonde hair was in loose curls and her makeup was simple and it was all she needed to look exceptional. As she entered the room, it was like the lights shone brighter.Avery shook her head, she should not be praising the beauty of her enemy, she hated the fact that she couldn't laugh at Cassie for being ugly, thw woman was yoo beautiful and standing close to Davide like that, they looked like thwy fell off from a movie. Avery was infuriated. She hated how good they looked togethrr and how Davide was acting around the bitch.That was when Davide's eyes fell on her, she saw thw transformation, how his eyes suddenly grew cold and his smile disappeared after he saw her. Avery felt a pang

Davide was perplexed by her request. He was keft speechless, he looked at Cassie who was snickering silently. Unlike Davide, she found the humor in it. She wanted to.kaugh but they were in a public soace so she had to put a pin in it. Davide however, was unable to say anything. Cheryl was looking at him like shendidnt just say the most brazen thing in the world. Davide didn't know how to tell her that it cannot be possible. She was looking at him with hopeful, round dow eyes that made her look very innocent. Davide shook his head. He had to say something but he couldn't say anything, his mind was going through all the possible ways this conversation would turn out and making a decision was getting very uncomfortable for him. He looked at cassie for help but yhe woman was only smilimg at him, putting her hands up intending that she wantwd nothing to do with the conversation. Davide reakized that he was left alone, betrayed by Cassie. Davide had no choice, he had tongibe her an an

Davide really wanted to tell the truth to the directors, he wanted them to know that the stupid stunt was pulled by Mr Lee, it was very tempting how Mr Lee would look like on his knees begging to be forgiven. Davide had not liked him initially, but now he felt that there was nothing other than a towering hatred he felt for Mr Lee. He was embarrassed to have ever referred to Mr Lee as an intelligent man.There was nothing intelligent about him. He was sick and hopeless and wicked and he was such a menace to the world.Davide couldn't let him go free, he couldn't allow Mr Lee to just walk away even though he pulled the most disgusting prank in the world. Davide was kind hearted but he knew exactly when it mattered to be cruel and this time, Mr Lee had called for it.Under everyone's watchful gazes, Davide walked to stand beside Mr lee where he was still giving his speech. The speech was becoming so long that Davide wondered if he had practiced it back at home. He must've guessed that th

Mr Lee was staring at the man as he held the door of the car. He was speechless, his eyes were conveying more than what Mr Lee could absorb in the second. But he did find traces of reverence, admiration, a hinge of devotion in those eyes. However, those were emotions almost all the workers of the company possessed because to many people, Derek was a mentor, he was a star, he was a good leader and he was leading them to the victory they all wanted, he was leading them to a world where their voices could be heard.And Mr Lee stood witness to this because he had been there on the number of occasions when Derek made sure voices were heard and Davide's voice was one of them. He didn't want to believe that Derek was just simply a good person, a philanthropist, a great leader. He had asked himself a number of times if Derek shared a form of relationship to other employees that he had stood up for so fervently that it made headlines but of course, from the information he gathered, Derek was j

Avery had been yapping to the doctor, she didn't see what Davide was doing. She waa frowning, yelling about how itbwas Davide's duty to give her mother the blood. She never expected that Davide woukd just suddenly stand up, holding the pint of blood on his hand.Avery was befuddled, she looked wroujd towards the nurse who was already getting rid of the instruments they had used. The nurse waa obviously avoiding eye contact wuth Avery. She was scared of meeting the eyes of such a woman, fearing that maybe Avery's anger would be directed at her next."What's going on?" Avery asked.Zeta whonhad veen standing by the door only laughed. But it was a laughter that was soaked with mockery, it was dripping mockery and even her eyes held the fact that she was making fun of Avery.Avery looked back at her. She was confused but what she was more worried about was why the hell Davide had suddenly stood up, abd even more shocking was that hebwas approaching the exit where shebwas standijg in front
