“What the hell are you doing here?” Damion yelled. Malika was the last person he was expecting to see, the least he wanted for himself right now was to bring back old memories.She was the one who dumped him for being poor and now what was her reason for coming here, Damion couldn't wait to find out. “Will you chase a woman who needs shelter?” Malika smirked with her right hand on her waist.Damion frowned, his eyes moving from Malika to the weather condition outside, it was raining heavily, and it didn't look like the rain would be stopping soon. “What happened to cabs? And also why didn't you use your vehicle or even your boyfriend's vehicle” Damion said, emphasizing more on the word boyfriend. “Well, my vehicle was faulty, so I was rushing and didn't use it. Wes is not around presently, and you know I hate taking cabs” Malika narrated.“I see,” Damion replied, staring at her. Her attitude hadn't changed
Steve was a cunning man, Damion knew this when Steve was arrested a few years back for the attempted murder of Bianca where she was hit by a vehicle while returning from a trip. Which was why Damion didn't think Steve's address would be gotten easily, but detective Reeves had proved himself to be a well trained detective, he knew his job so well and after much research and investigation, he had gotten Steve's address within 48 hours. After Damion received the information of Steve's whereabouts, Bella had left to do her own business while Damion rushed down to the police station and together Damion had accompanied both Reeves and his partner Helen to Steve's hideout. Inside a room, Bianca sat on the ground with her back against the wall, her hair was scattered and unkempt, she looked like she was asleep as her eyes were closed.The only way to know she wasn't sleeping was her position of sitting, her head bowed low and her knees folded
Chapter 81Back to work As Damion sat in the cab, he smiled as his eyes lingered out the blinds, he was just so happy that everything had gone well, Bianca had been rescued and Steve, who was the culprit, was already in the police custody. Bianca described Steve as a stalker, she had narrated how Steve had stalked her throughout her stay in Paris. According to her, she knew Steve was a stalker, but she never expected him to kidnap her and try to force his way on her. Damion subconsciously checked his fist, he didn't want to think of what he would have done to Steve if he had laid a finger on Bianca. The cab parked beside a large building which had the inscription of the Lance medical hospital written boldly on it. Today Damion would be resuming work, thanks to his grandfather who had spoken to the chief director of the hospital, informing him he had an important assignment and would be needing Damion's help. A
In his sleep Jack could hear some distant voices and blurry images. These voices weren't clear and as quick as he regained consciousness he blacked out again. Before he blacked out, the person he saw above him was Damion. At the time when Jack was rushed into the hospital, the nurses ran over to call on Wes, it has always been like as most of them feared Wes due to his family name. Immediately Wes arrived at the scene and swlaw the condition Jack was in, he frowned, Jack's two legs were broken and he had blood running from his hair down the side of his face, soaking the white coat he was wearing. “I don't think he will make it” Wes said “You don't think he will make it?What do you mean?” Davina who stood beside Wes questioned.Wes turned around with both of his hands behind him “Look at him Davina, does he look like someone that would live?He is going to die soon anyway, it's just going to be a waste of time trying
A loud scream resounded all over the hospital which made nurses and doctors including Damion rush over towards the location of the scream. “What happened?” A doctor asked the nurse who had just alerted everyone with her scream. The nurse had disbelief all over her face, and was also reasless as she spoke “the patient, he is dead” “Dead?, What do you mean dead?” Damion, who had just arrived at the scene, questioned with a deep frown. He pushed his way through the little crowd and got to the patient who was lying still on the bed and had a white cloth spread on his body. Damion yencked the cloth off, he quicker used his stethoscope to check the patients heart, but was disappointed as there was no heartbeat. “What the hell is this?” Damion panicked. “I did everything and I was very sure he was stable when I left,” Damion said to no one in particular. The rest of his colleagues stood around, looking at him as they didn't know what to say about this. “He is gone Damion”o
Wes's wedding became the talk of the town, it was mentioned on every TV channel and it was all over the internet, this was the power of the W&S holdings. For the past few days, the internet has been divided into three different sections, which included those who were with Wes and Malika, those who were with Damion and Bianca and lastly, those who were with neither of the two, this set of people just wanted to see how all this will end. “Mr Wes! Please what can you say about this whole thing, was the placement of the wedding's date intentional?” Wes heard a female reporter say as he stepped out of the hospital. Since the very day Wes announced his wedding, reporters have been lingering around the hospital waiting to interview anyone at any given chance, interviewing Wes and Damion was the actual price. Although there were about six to seven reporters present, Wes was ready to attend to whatever questions they had for him.Adjusting his coat, Wes smirked “Well I don't have much of a
Lost in his world, Damion was so enveloped by the clouds of his thoughts that he was blind to notice the presence of an unexpected visitor in his office. “I'm sorry I'm saying this late, but I know you are innocent and I have concrete evidence to back it up” These words which certainly came from the visitor were able to break through the shackles of damions thoughts and had successfully brought him back to reality. Damion was able to snap out of his thoughts and that was when he noticed this person who seemed to be sitting in a wheelchair. Damion's eyes widened as he stared at the person. “You have evidence? “Yes I do, I'm sorry, you must be mad I didn't tell you about it earlier” Damion folded his arms to his chest “Well, Maybe I will talk about being mad with you later, but for now, the evidence is what I need to clear my name” The person on the wheelchair smiled
The anger grew inside of Wes, he had tried every single thing he could but Damion didn't seem to be going down anytime soon. The coffee cup resting by his side shook as Wes took a turn into another street, he had his eyes glued to the road as he drove. Wes was already getting sick and tired of the whole thing and he knew something needed to be done quickly. Initially, he had decided to lay low for now and strike later when the whole Bianca drama fades away, but the more he laid low the more Damion soared higher. With his left hand, Damion took a sip from the coffee and dropped it back on the chair, his eyes glancing at the side mirror to see if the road was clear. Even with his mind clouded with a series of thoughts, he was still self-conscious about his surroundings. Finally, Wes arrived at a semi-large building, the street was quiet and as he stepped out of the vehicle he cou
