"Athena..." Mr. Carney called immediately Athena and Damon stepped into the Villa.A low frown appeared on Damon's face and the same action goes for Athena. "Good evening, Dad." She said, stepping down the steps."Where the hell did you disappear to, you were supposed to have dinner with one of the clients, why did you leave without informing me?" He asked and Athena cocked her brow. "I told you before Dad that I would not be able to make it, I am not interested in having any sort of dinner with anyone and if he wants to discuss anything meaningful, he can always come to my office and we can talk about it, I don't think it's necessary to have dinner with him." She explained."What is wrong with you, Athena, do you know how embarrassing it was for Dad to make dinner plans in your name and you end up ruining everything?! We could have lost a good client because of you." Celena huffed and rolled her eyes at her sister."Since you knew it was so important, you could have done a great jo
"Boss, you have to come home soon, we need you here and I am not quipping," Trevor said through a video call and Damon nodded with a smile. "I'll be home soon, Trev, I'm almost done with what I came here for, how's everyone doing?" Damon asked. "We're good, we just want our boss back, it's not funny anymore, you can't leave your empire here and go over there only to be treated like trash. I am trying my best to keep the videos that were been shot of you daily away from our family. Just imagine how they'll react once they find out. You need to end this whole thing. I'm getting tired of it, for real. " Trevor complained bitterly and Damon just smiled at him."It will soon be over, Trevor and that's a promise, also about the videos, don't worry about it, I'll handle it, I'll have them taken down soon, I know I'm taking time but that's because I don't want to do anything wrong, keep calm Trev. How's the Empire treating you?" He asked, trying to divert the topic, if he gives Trevor an op
"I'm gonna be needing a tremendous dress, I am in need of a fashionable dress, the latest and the most beautiful, Athena, you've got to help me, please." Electra pleaded in the car and Athena exchanged looks with Damon.Damon pulled over at the car park as Electra kept whining to Athena, they'd come to the biggest fashion house in the city to select good clothes. They'd left the house very early in the morning but everything got delayed because of Electra. It's still morning; just a few minutes to twelve."You bet with Trevor, right?." Damon asked Electra as he stepped out of the car and the woman shot her head towards Damon. "How did you know, was it your idea?" Electra asked suspiciously and Athena chuckled."Why would he get involved with you two? I'm sure he just made a lucky guess, right Damon ?" Athena asked and the young man just shrugged. "I did not guess, I am pretty sure she made a bet with Trevor. Electra isn't the type to care about her dressing, I know her and her natur
"What, Damon?" She questioned her husband, eyes filled with tears that threatened to fall and it was at this point that Damon knew that his wife was hurt and that's a sin. "You shall shop here, dear." He said coldly and Athena cocked her brow. "That's not necessarily again honey, we can always shop elsewhere, I can't tolerate this rude woman." Athena huffed, looking at Linda who was staring angrily at her."If you don't like her, she'll be the one to leave and not you." He declared, turning to Linda who looked somewhat surprised."And how do you intend to do that, Damon?" A familiar feminine voice asked and they all turned to see Celena heading towards them. Athena cursed inwardly and immediately blinked back the tears in her eyes. She's not crying because of her own pain but because of the humiliation, her husband was going through. "Mr. Damon, it's like you're hallucinating, I am an important part of this organization and I don't think you can do anything about my position, kin
ONE MONTH LATER. "You look so gorgeous and fairy-like." Electra complimented Athena as she stepped out of the dressing room, looking ravishing and extremely gorgeous."Thanks, baby, you look beautiful and extremely different too, I'm sure the men will wish they had you to themselves tonight, like girl, you are looking too hot!" Athena said excitedly and Electra just chuckled, looking at her short designer gown that seemed to reveal the whole of her back, and all her shapes were brought out."Well, we spent his money well, don't you think?" Electric asked, admiring the twinkling necklace around her neck. When her boss gave it to her, she thought it would be heavy but it turned out to be very light and she loved the feel of it around her neck."Wow, I didn't see that there, that wasn't what we picked at the jewelry store a few weeks ago, did you have another shopping spree without me, Electra, I'm jealous of that necklace, it's adorable," Athena said, coming towards Electra with a huge
"Your sister, oh Lord, your sister have finished us." She cried and Athena looked at her mother again with surprise."What has she done this time around?" Ayden asked, turning away from her crying mother to her sister but his eyes bulged wide open in pure shock."What the fuck! Athena!! What have you done?" Ayden asked immediately and Athena got confused the more while a devilish grin surfaced on Damon's face. "What's wrong with all of you and why are you all shouting, if you don't know what to say, then just shut the fuck up instead of shouting unnecessarily, you're beginning to annoy me and I hate it. We have a party to attend and I want all of you to keep your mouth shut, especially you mom, stop crying and pointing at me, if I'm the reason for your tears, then just know that it was a pleasure to make you cry." She huffed angrily and turned to her husband and added, "Let's go, honey, we're getting late already." "You're not going anywhere till you explain how you got that necklac
She finds it hard to believe that her twin sister who'd been sweet to her had suddenly changed. She had doubts but... She'd almost believed her. "I'm a fool to think that you have changed, Celena," Athena muttered, tears gushing out of her eyes."You can shed your crocodile tears once you're in prison. I know father won't call but I will." She said, moving towards the phone on the table, as she was reaching for her phone, Damon's voice halted her. "That would not be needed, Celena. You don't have to stress yourself." Damon said and all eyes turned towards him. Athena turned to look at her husband who was heading towards her, she began to wonder what was going on. No matter how a negative thought tried to rush into her head, she tried her best to stay neutral. "Oh, have you finally gotten to know the kind of wife you have Damon? I might be chasing after money but your wife is a crooked thief and you must be disappointed with her, huh? Should I give you the telephone so you'll call
"Thank you," Athena said immediately they stepped into the car, it was eight in the evening which meant that the party had started already, it was supposed to start by seven, but they were one hour late."Can I drive please?" Electra asked and Damon looked at her in surprise."Are you sure you want to drive? You look too beautiful to drive Electra." He said and Electra just scoffed and opened the driver seat for her boss to step out. "You need to console her, you got her hyper tonight," Electra said and Damon just nodded with a smile, stepped out of the driver seat, and went to the passenger seat to sit next to his wife. "You don't have to thank me, I should be the one apologizing for putting you in a tight situation, I had no choice, I could see that your family was beginning to sway you. Though I see you trying to fight it, it was only a matter of time before fell deep into their trap, I know your family, I lived with them, and they don't care about anyone except themselves, I'm t
