Chapter 71
Throughout the night,Ruby cuddled Damian like a baby without asking him questions. He came to her place to find peace and she was going to let him enjoy the peace. She told herself that all her questions could wait till the next day. The next morning, as she prepared for work, Damian remained in bed and kept sleeping, his exhaustion evident in his face. There were a lot of calls from Thomas when Ruby picked up her phone so she guessed it was because of Damian. She called him back immediately “Good morning Thomas” she said when the call connected.“Good morning Miss Morris. How was your night's rest?”“It was great. I missed a lot of calls from you,is something going on?”“Please are you able to get in touch with Mr Stevenson? Is he at work yet?” With the corner of her eyes, Ruby casted a look at Damian who was sleeping peacefully in her bed,but she couldn't tell Thomas that.“We haven't spoken since I left the office yesterday and I'm just getting ready for work,” she lied.“Oh,

Chapter 72
Damian was lying on his back with one of his hands wrapped around Ruby and her head placed on her chest. Ruby blushed when she realised she was naked and so was Damian. Last night after they had made love to each other, she wanted to put on her pyjamas,but Damian stopped her and told her to just sleep. She tried to get out of bed and go shower, but Damian pulled her back into his arms and his eyes slightly opened.“Where do you think you are going?” Ruby felt her face turn red as he made eye contact with her.“I just want shower and get ready for work” “Shower?” Damian asked and inhaled the smell of her skin “No,you are good” he said and kissed her forehead. “And you can call Thomas that you won't be in the office”“Why should I do that?”“Because I don't want you out of my sight at all for today” Ruby stared into his eyes and saw the loneliness in his eyes and that made it impossible for her to turn him down.“Should I tell him I won't be at work because I want to try looking fo

Ruby's phone rang, disrupting their moment of comfort. The screen flashed Thomas' name,so she picked it up and answered.“Hello?” She answered and Damian looked at her wondering who she was speaking with.“Hello Miss Ruby,have you found Mr Stevenson?” Thomas' voice came through the phone. Ruby noticed Damian's questioning gaze so she removed the phone from her ear and put it on a loudspeaker.“What did you say?” She purposely asked again so that Damian would know what he was asking her about.“I asked if you have found Mr Stevenson”“Not yet actually…is there something going on over there?” She asked and looked at Damian who gave her a look indicating he was okay with her reply.“Well,we need to find him as soon as possible because he is in danger”“Danger? Mr Stevenson is in danger?”“I'm in danger?” Damian mouthed and looked at himself to be sure he was fine.“Mathew is now trying to kill him again. It's going to happen anytime soon but we couldn't get the date he plans to execut

Chapter 74
The next morning, Damian had woken up before Ruby. He made her some pancakes and scrambled eggs. He took his bath,got dressed and left the house with his luggage after leaving a note for her. When Ruby woke up and saw Damian was gone,she was overwhelmed with sadness. Not like she was never going to see him again at work,but she just wished he could remain with her. A smile crept on her face when she saw the note and breakfast he had left for her. She pulled out a chair in the kick and silently ate alone.—-------“Are you okay? Where have you been?” Ashley rushed to Damian the moment he entered the house. She hugged him immediately like a mother who had just met her lost son.“Why have you been looking for me? Why did you keep using Ruby to find out where I am” Damian asked, trying to act like he wasn't touched by how relieved Ashley was to see him okay. Her hug warmed his heart,but he wasn't ready to show her all of that because she might start going on about Veronica.“I know w

Ruby gasped when she felt the needle pierce her skin,then she began to feel so dizzy and collapsed on the floor. “Now,I think I can travel to London in peace” Veronica sighed in relief and smiled. “What…did you do to me?” Ruby managed to ask as she struggled to open her eyes that were closing on their own. “Oh! You want to know the cause of your death? You have just been injected with insulin which is very bad for you since you don't have diabetes. If you are lucky enough to get urgent help, you should live,but if not,I'll be glad to attend your funeral” Veronica said and laughed happily “Oh my goodness! You stressed me bitch!” She said and tried to kick Ruby but she was stopped by the lights that flashed on her all of a sudden. “Shit!” She exclaimed and ran as fast as she could to her car and drove off before they would catch her. Wendy and Frank,the couple Ruby and Damian met when she was still hunting for an apartment, rushed out of their car when they saw her lying helpl

Chapter 76
His driver wasn't at the entrance yet and he was very impatient to wait for him,so he hailed a taxi. His hands were shaking as he tried to open the door. He jumped in and gave the driver the hospital's address “I beg of you, please hurry!” The driver nodded “Okay sir” . He saw how impatient Damian was since the time he hailed his taxi so he guessed it was something urgent. He ignited the car's engine immediately and sped off.“Why would a nurse answer her call if her condition isn't worse? Why didn't she tell me she was sick?”his heart raced as he bombarded himself with questions. As they approached the hospital,he became more anxious. He gave a few bills to the driver and even told him to keep the rest before the taxi even stopped.“Thank you sir” the taxi driver smiled and stopped the car in front of the hospital. Damian dashed out of the car immediately. His eyes scanned the emergency room frantically, looking for a sign of Ruby. When he spotted a nurse,he rushed over to h

Chapter 77
Damian decided to drop by Ruby's place before heading back to the hospital to gather some of her things she would be needing during her stay in the hospital and express his gratitude to the neighbours who had come to her aid in a timely manner and rushed her to the hospital. After collecting the necessary items and sending a quick update to Melissa about Ruby's condition, he bumped into Frank and Wendy,who were about to enter their unit as he was leaving Ruby's unit."How's Ruby doing?" Wendy asked with concern as she approached Damian."She's getting better, according to the doctor,thank you for asking," Damian replied with a smile.“I heard you guys took her to the hospital. Thank you so much!""Don't mention it; that's what neighbours are for!" Frank replied to him with a warm smile."We would have loved to come with you to visit her, but, currently we are both busy.We'll try to stop by another time,trust us on that," Frank explained, and Damian nodded understandingly. Even if they

Melissa made sure Ruby was fast asleep before she left the ward to look for Damian. He wasn't in sight at all,so she decided to try her luck with the gardens and fortunately,she saw him sitting alone and staring at patients who were having fun with their families. She strode towards him and sat beside him. “How did you know where to find me?"Damian asked immediately when he saw her."Most people relax here,so it wasn't that difficult""Ruby?"“She is asleep,so I thought I could step out,” Melissa said calmly.“Oh” Damian said and relaxed.“What a beautiful view” Melissa said and inhaled the fresh air. “Thank you for being there for my sister” Melissa continued when there was no reply from Damian and this time he looked at her.“It's what I have to do,” Damian replied.“I'm happy she found someone who is very good to her. Someone who cares deeply and loves her so much. Someone that makes me put my mind at rest that she is safe”“I'm.the luckiest to have her. She always has my back and

Chapter 79
Nathan was the one who sent the men to Damian's house to kill him. His obsession with impressing his father and proving to him that he wasn't a coward like his mother had made him so desperate that he was willing to go to any lengths, including taking a life, to prove himself. And Damian was his perfect victim. Getting rid his own enemy and his Father's enemy was the best. Enraged, he slammed his phone against the wall when the men he had hired to target Damian called to report their failed attempt."He wasn't at home when we arrived, sir. We searched everywhere,but it seemed he didn't sleep at home last night" one of the men explained over the phone.Nathan's anger boiled over. "Didn't you assure me of success? Consider the rest of your payment forfeited since you failed miserably!" He seethed, his voice trembling with fury.The men pleaded, "We promise to do better next time, sir. Trust us."Nathan's response was a menacing growl. "You'd better. You're running out of chances." He

Chapter 80
Ruby was finally discharged from the hospital and Damian left the Company earlier than the usual time so that he could take her home. Ruby got out of the car when it parked in the garage like she had something urgent to do. But Damian was surprised when she came to his side of the door and stopped. He slowly opened the door,his gaze fixed on her, wondering what she was up to. His mouth dropped open when Ruby unzipped her trousers to reveal her black underwear. It was something he never expected her to do,but he loved the sight of it.“Are you sure you just want to go inside?” She asked,her voice barely above a whisper.He pulled her closer to himself "Hell no” he whispered just as their lips met in a hot,rough and fiery kiss. No one was in the garage,so they could do what they wanted and the car was also parked in a dark space so it would take time before anyone would notice them.“Damian” Ruby's breathless voice echoed in the back seat of his car. She arched her back onto the sea
