At the police station, Ella was placed back in her cell with cuffs in her hand. She was looking down at the floor with her back rested against the wallMr and Mrs Evans dashed into the station and ran to Ella. Earlier, the policemen found her inside the well, took her back to the station and called her parents to inform them Tom, on the other hand, was in hiding. He attempted to fly out of the country but since the borders were closed, he couldn't. So, he went into hiding. The police already termed him wanted “What were you thinking?! I'll never expect this from you in a million years. Do you know how much damage you caused? Look here and answer my questions!” Mr Evas gripped the cell’s gate and glared at her“Honey, calm down. Can't you see how injured she is? At least, show some sympathy”Mrs Evans turned to Ella “Darling, raise your head and look at mummy. What happened? I won't believe all that was said about you until I hear from you. Tell me, what happened!”“It's you that has
“Reynold Smith? Isn't that Ella's biological father? Who knew he had so much love for his daughter that he can anchor all her crimes. Tsk” Orlando adjusted the shades on his face as he walked next to Damon Damon's face was still. He has accepted his fate. He knew that soon enough, his secret will be out Before that happens, he needs to make sure that Ambrose is safe. He needed to be rest assured that Oliver will be in good health If that happens, he will spend his life in jail in peace, knowing he's laid a path for the ones he care about He pulled a few strings to get some producers and entertainment firms to pay attention to Ambrose. He was confident in her skills and was sure that those firms would try to poach her soon. Even when he's in jail, Ambrose wouldn't have any issue with money “I wasn't aware that he's in the city. His presence here will cause Mrs Evans a lot of headache. That's not my problem anyway. What do you plan to do now, Nathan?”Orlando said “Get a doctor to
Damon enthusiastically cleaned the restaurant, smiling and humming a song as he mopped. He was oblivious to the weird gaze his colleagues were giving him. All he could think of was seeing his girlfriend at the end of the day and spending quality time with her Damon didn't usually have a positive attitude towards his job. He worked only because he had to. However, that day was a special day. It was his girlfriend's birthday. He planned to take her out on a dinner date. Although it wasn't much, that was the best he could afford Damon is not financially buoyant. He's an orphan and is only able to survive by working multiple part-time jobs. Things weren't promising for him. The only good that ever happened to him was meeting Ambrose. She's a charming lady that caught the eyes of many men. He was only fortunate enough to have her reciprocate his feelings for her Not once did she make Damon feel less of a man because of his financial incapability. In fact, the way in which she appreciated
Damon took Ambrose to a good enough restaurant. They talked over their food. Well, Ambrose did most of the talking. She was filling Damon up about everything happening in her college Both of them grew up in a small town in the outskirts of the country. They were childhood besties and were inseparable Damon and his mother relocated to City B because they thought there would be a wider range of opportunities and things would get better. Not only did things get worse, they also didn't have enough funds to return to their hometown. That was how Damon got stuck in City B. It wasn't long after his relocation that he lost his mother. During the time of separation between Ambrose and Damon, they both realised that what they felt for each other was much more than a mere bestie's love. Ambrose had a lot of men hoping to be with her. But her heart was only with Damon and she turned all of them down Fortunately, Ambrose got a scholarship to study in City B. She left her mum in her hometown to
The policeman looked at the picture in his hand and then at Damon. His brows drew slightly together as he nodded to the two other policemen "He's the one. Arrest him" He then turned to Damon " You're under arrest for public assault, threats and damage of properties" "I did nothing wrong. If anyone should be getting arrested, it's him. He was trying to force himself on a helpless lady" Damon gritted his teeth but didn't stop the police officers from putting handcuffs on himRight at that moment, Baron walked into the restaurant, looking as though a truck had run him over. "Baron! Tell them the truth. Tell the officers that he was standing up for me and beat you up because you were trying to take advantage of me" Ambrose said to Baron Baron ignored her and turned to the officers. He confirmed Damon's identity and told the authorities to take him away No amount of pleading and persuasion from Ambrose made the police officers pay her heed. The commotion already gathered the attention o
Damon stayed at Ambrose's house till late at night. He returned to his apartment a little before midnight. The woman already replied to his message. She said to meet up at the same place they did yesterday. He fell into slumber not long after he got home. The next day, he was awoken by the heavy banging on his door. On opening the door, he saw a bespectacled middle-aged man. He was wearing a faded shirt and black shorts. "Good mor-" The man cut off Damon's words and rudely shoved the paper in his hand to him "Get your things out of here. This house, along with a few other ones in the street has been bought" Damon drew his brows together and skimmed through the content on the paper. "This house belongs to me. It was my mother's before she passed away!" The man waved his hands and shook his head "I don't care who left it with who. You have two days to vacate this place. The buyer plans to bulldoze the houses he bought and build something else on it" "This house belongs to me!" The
You will cut off all ties with her, along with any other person you're acquainted with" The woman spat coldly Damon stood up and dusted his trousers "If that's the case, then I guess you should look elsewhere. I'm not the right person for the job" "You signed a contract. You have to follow all my orders, all of them " She stood up and continued "We'll start tonight. Later today, you'll go to Snyder's mansion. The description of the place is on the file you're holding. So long you follow everything in that file, nothing will go wrong" With that being said, she left the restaurant, not caring about the ugly expression on Damon's face It took Damon a while before he left the hotel. Cut off all ties with Ambrose? The evening came in a flash. Damon took a cab to the Snyder's mansion. He couldn't find any cabs walking on the way, he saw different private car models, most of which he wasn't familiar with Soon enough, he got to his destination and was dumbstruck at the extravagance of th
Her paring red nails and red lip stain were enough to evoke suspicion in Damon's mind. But she looked at him as if she hadn't seen him in a long time. Perhaps he was wrong. The woman, Mrs Evans spread her lips into a warm smile and said " I'm glad you're back, Nathan. I always knew you would find your way back" Mr Evans, who was standing next to her nodded his head in approval "Since you're here. Stay and join us for dinner. There's more than enough to go around" Margaret suggested as she pulled out a chair for Damon to sit Mr and Mrs Evans declined " It's Nathan's time. Let him have it to himself. We came as soon as we got the news. We still have a few things to tend to" "Oh! If that's the case, I shouldn't keep you waiting" Margaret responded politely " Alright then" Mrs Evans then turned to Damon "Ella would be head over the clouds when she hears you've returned" Damon pulled his brows together "Ella?" He thought everybody he needed to know of was already listed in the file.
