The meeting with the Richmond sisters and Philip had gone better than they expected, Philip handled the situation with balance. His reactions and decisions were just enough to give the girls hope for better outcomes in the end as well as conceal privy information from them. He kept them just where he wanted them to be.The ladies went home with confidence after he had encouraged them to not bother much about the situation and only hoped for Damon's leniency towards them. They returned back to Sonia's place as Philip advised them to for the sake of their personal security, and also to take the next day off from work.It was the next day and Philip had planned for Sonia's trip to Italy to meet with Damon. Ivy's case with him was scheduled for another time after Damon had made his decision on the matter and a plan was put in place. He had related the situation with Damon and Brandley through their private channel but Elizabeth and Bella were yet to be in the know.Secretly, Philip had pl
From the moment Sonia entered the Rolls Royce outside the tower, she became drowsy and slept off all through the journey. It was a fail-safe security measure to keep her from knowing the routes of the journey. It was both to conceal the route and also to keep her ignorant of it in the event of unfortunate situations happening to her and she was asked about it.Waking up in this strange room was a shock for her, and even more shocking was the face she saw. She screamed in fear like she wasn't expecting to see him, that was her first reaction but then she held her chest, panting for relief as she caught her breath.“Damon,” she called out, the pace of her breathing dropping faster by the second. Damon stood by the bed and watched her with a bright smile on his face.His smile was another confusing thing for her, she didn't expect him to be smiling at her, she expected to see a furious Damon and hence why she screamed out when she opened her eyes and saw his face.“Hey, babe. Come here,”
Sonia had gone into the bathroom to take a shower while the Prince still lay on the bed waiting for her to come out. Inside the bathroom alone, she smiled so brightly at how everything was turning out already, she didn't think of him to respond the way he did to the situation. But deep down, she had some fears that he may be playing an angle with her.“Whatever it is, it's not to hurt me nor Ivy,” she said to herself to clear the doubts she was having.After a moment of standing naked in the shower and just allowing the water to drip all over her as she ran her thoughts about her Prince, she heard Damon on the phone with someone. She tiptoed towards the door to hear his conversation over the phone. “Of course…it's all fine…tomorrow, yes…okay?” She could barely hear the complete conversation he was having but hoped it was not about her as her fears came back flooding her.“Babe!” She called him after he had dropped the call.“Yes,” Damon answered her, concerned about the reason for he
Sonia was awoken few hours later at about 2 am by Damon, he kissed her on the head and on the lips, and she struggled to shake off the drowsiness from off her.“Hey, hun,” he said to her while she yet struggled. She was tired and exhausted, the prior activity wasn't an easy one and she needed the long sleep beside her lover.“Come on, wake up. It's time to go,” Damon called her off her sleep again, shaking her to wake up.“Do I have to?” She asked in her struggle to wake up, “Let's just stay here together forever.” She grabbed him with her hands wrapped around her neck and dropped him on her body with kisses. All she wanted was to never leave his side again.“Okay, baby. That is a fantastic idea but…” Damon struggled to break free from her grip and get her to wake up but she held on too tight.“But, yes. We can.” She interrupted his statement and kissed him again. The Prince had no other choice than to comply with her while he sought ways to get her up.After a couple more kisses and
Later that day, Damon had a meeting with his team excluding Bella. With the recent developments, they needed to restrategize on how to use it to their advantage.Damon, Brandley, Philip, and Elizabeth were together in Damon's sitting room in the Italian presidential villa and their meeting began.“So, we now have the Richmond sisters on our side. That was a brave step they took.” Elizabeth said to the group. They had informed her and Bella about the situation via their advanced secret communication system.“Yes, and they are legit,” Philip responded, “They actually have no other options now than to come clean.” He added.“Ambasaador Justin Barnes…” Brandley said, chuckling as he mentioned the name with a confident smile on his face.“You don't seem surprised, Brandley. What is it?” Elizabeth asked him. His expression spoke loud suspicion to her and Philip.Damon leaned back on his chair to reveal a truth to them. “Remember, Juan Matteo? The head of Italy's Intelligence Service.” He as
The sight of Bella and Joyce seeing each other after a long while was something beyond shocking to the ladies, they never expected to meet each other in a setting like this. And to Bella especially, she became afraid, fearing that Joyce would react to her concerning how their union ended a few weeks back, and this may expose her.The night was already becoming overly weird for Bella, the three persons she had seen were people she never expected to see. Mr. Barnes, Lisa Brown, and Joyce Ramsey, this setup was something else.She and Joyce stared down at each other fiercely with Joyce being more bold with her look while Bella acted to be bold. Her prayers were for Joyce to somehow not expose her working with Damon. However, she had a backup plan in mind and that is the story she had told the girls about why she stopped working for Damon and rather work against him. Hopefully, when Joyce chooses to go revenging on her, she could cement a better case to save herself. And with Philip's lo
Mr. Barnes question to Joyce dropped like a bomb in the room, the silence was almost palpable and Bella's heartbeat could almost be heard. It was the moment she most feared since Joyce stepped into the room, however, she tried to make herself ready.“Sorry, what?” Joyce asked Mr. Barnes like she didn't hear his question.“I mean, your case with Bella a few weeks back, how did it go down?” Mr. Barnes reiterated the question back to her. Joyce looked straight at Bella after taking her attention from Mr. Barnes, “Damon exposed us and gave me a window which I took and fled.” She answered.Bella's pacing heart dropped a bit, Joyce's response was a brief summary for the situation but she didn't mention Bella's role in it yet. Now she hoped Mr. Barnes doesn't press further but he did.“And how did he do that?” Mr. Barnes asked her.The man wasn't relenting and Bella now became more worried but Joyce was rather prepared. “He uncovered our plot and got the evidence to counter mine from Jack P
Damon and his team finished listening to Bella's report on how her meeting went with the secret group which they now know of. But everyone's attention turned to Damon on Joyce's role in the game.“What? Joyce is now part of the team?” Elizabeth asked in surprise.“I was more shocked than you are, Bet.” Bella added from the screen she was on.“Come on, man. What's the angle with Joyce?” Philip asked.Damon and Brandley looked casual which meant to the others that they had a plan with Joyce. “Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.” Brandley answered them.Damon had told them about setting up life for Joyce in Tokyo so she could stay away from negative influences and also, they could keep an eye on her. Although she had done a lot to hurt him, she was his ex-wife and a woman he once loved with everything, so he couldn't just watch her end badly like that.Then also, he informed them of how the Tokyo plan went stating that Joyce was kidnapped which was true since Don Lupez's me
