Taking in a deep quiet breath, she asked"What exactly did the Carney's family do to you? There's more to this whole vengeance stuff and I'm sure of it." She added and after a few seconds of Damon's gothic glare, he sighed. "You're right darling, there's more and it's that more that's making me bitter. I would have easily moved ahead but I could not, that family tainted my family's name, Mr. Carney rubbished my family name and destroyed it..." He paused and smiled at the shocked-looking woman."I don't have time for that family, especially after their last attempt on my life but after I found out that they were the reason for my lifelong suffering, my family ruination and death... I couldn't help it, I just wanted to ruin the man who was responsible for my family's perils." He added.Damon walked back to his seat and sat down without another word, telling Athena everything wasn't the problem, he'd tried to keep everything in him ever since he found out. In a real sense, he doesn't lik
"Yeah, that would be all, thank you," Damon said, ending the phone call. His focus went back to the laptop in front of him, he was trying to sort out some issues before they land in the United States."Hey boss, want some burger, the girls packed it for us," Electra asked, moving towards Damon with a tray of food and drinks."No, thank you. I'm busy at the moment." He replied curtly without breaking eye contact with his laptop screen."Okay, boss." She said moving towards Athena that was relaxing on the seat close to Damon."Work on the boss stuff, call me Damon, I told you to practice this since yesterday." Damon corrected, his eyes changing their direction to focus on Electra. "Sorry, boss... I mean sorry. All these are new to me, I'll try." She apologized dropping the food.Damon sighed, he knew she'd still repeat the mistake... He just hopes it won't be in front of his in-laws, it might cause a problem for him. Shaking his head lightly, he focused on his work again. "Hey girl,
Deep murmurs could be heard from different directions immediately after Damon and Athena stepped out of the car, hand in hand. They were followed shortly by a lawyer and then Electra who was checking out the huge church premises, the guests and journalists whose cameras and curious eyes were fixed on them.Damon looked around, inquisitive surprised eyes staring at him and his bride from all directions. He smirked in his mind, he knew the wedding would be a huge one, and there were different personalities coming to grace the wedding with their presence... It was expected, after all, it was the wedding of the most influential and powerful man's daughter. Today's drama would be worth it. He could see the looks many people were giving him, everyone knew him, he was the poor son-in-law of a powerful man. He's popular in this part of the country, videos used to be recorded of him on a daily basis getting embarrassed. He wondered if they miss humiliating him, he'd been gone for years... Ye
"Guards! Clear this, my bride will be here any minute and I do not want her to meet such a ridiculous situation." He ordered proudly and his guards swung into full action.Despite the confirmation of the journalists that Damon was there, Victor didn't listen. Coming back from the dead only exists in fiction and this is no fiction.Someone whispered something to Victor's ear and his eyes bulged in horror, without thinking twice, he began to walk towards two people standing hand in hand. Damon was aware of Victor coming towards them and without waiting for him to reach his place, he turned around with Athena. Victor immediately halted on his step, eyes wide in shock, mouth slightly opened, and unknowingly, he took a step back. What the hell is happening? How was he alive? The question ran through his mind as he stared at Damon."Hello, Victor..." Damon said walking up to him, his steps slow and mean, eyes burning with hatred as he remembered the last time he saw that face. That kick
"She'd asked for forgiveness and I forgave her." He said."Oh please. Take my offer and leave us alone, Celena would still agree with me if we want you dead again because she stands to benefit more from me than she could ever imagine, right Celena?" He asked, moving towards Athena.Athena chuckled, her hands going to Victor's face, "You're such a fool, I am not Celena... That is Celena." She said turning Victor's head towards the direction of a woman in a wedding dress running towards them.Victor's mouth dropped open upon seeing his bride heading towards him in a rush, he turned around with an open mouth to look at Athena. "Didn't she tell you she had a twin sister?" Athena asked with a chuckle upon seeing the surprised look on Victor's face. She had no idea what Damon was doing when he didn't introduce her as Athena so she'd played along. However, after everything that had just happened, she got the whole plan. Damon had made Victor confess to having a hand in his attempted murder
Celena gritted her teeth and asked again, "What do you two want, and why choose today of all days to appear back in the country after years of disappearance? What do you two fucking want from us?" No one answered, they just stared at her like some kids watching a clown perform.Victor comes to his bride's aid, "You know we rule this country, there's nothing you two will do that would harm us, the earlier you told us what you want, the better it would be for you and us. We can all forget about the ugly past and move ahead with our life and for that, I'm making you an offer and this time I'll add an extra five million dollars." Victor said and Celena gave her a surprised look. "What are you talking about, Victor? What offer are you talking about?" Celena asked in surprise. "I am offering them twenty million dollars to go away from our lives, they should leave and never think of coming back. The money should be able to set them up for good, they can live the life they want without the
"Oh, no darling. I came here for two things." He announced grabbing the attention of Celena Victor."Huh?" Celena whispered in a daze. "You heard me right. Once you're done signing those papers, I'm getting married again. I thought it best I move ahead like you." Damon replied with sarcasm.Celena and Victor exchange glances and begin to laugh. "Oh Lord, which woman in her right senses would want to marry a pathetic poor man like you? Who's your bride Damon and where is she?" Celena asked, still laughing. Athena cursed inwardly, interlocking her arm with Damon's, "Me sister, I'm his bride and I'm standing right here beside him, where I belong." She said proudly and Celena and Victor's smile froze. Damon ravished the shocked expression on the face of Celena, she'd always had the ability to conceal her expression but right now, she could not, she was practically in a state of shock. "What's wrong little sis, are you jealous that I'm gonna have your man?" Athena teased chuckling and
"Tatiana! How can you say such a despicable thing from your mouth?! Do you wish me dead, when did you become so cold-hearted?" Mrs. Carney asked in awe.Athena rolled her eyes, "It's surprising that you people have no idea that you turned me into whatever I am today. You guys ruined me for your precious princess here because you thought she was the best." Athena said with a bitter giggle, her head flooding with memories of the past. When her mother heard what she said, she began to cry more loudly. Damon sighed softly, this family and drama... Mrs. Carney is doing all this because there are cameras everywhere. She's playing the emotional mother who just found her long-lost daughter. Gawd! That family is just impossible! She began to sob again, "I'm your mother!" She said aloud, trying to reach her. "A big mistake on your path. Now stop with the silly drama or I'll start shouting aloud too accusing you of all the things you've done to me. All the trauma I've been through because o
