THE HEIR Chapter 46
The loud sound of her phone ringing woke Ruby up,and without sitting up,she stretched her hand to grab it from her bedside drawer. It was when she brought the phone close to her face and saw that it was Damian calling that she sat up and beamed with a smile.“Hello” she said,not sure of what to say.“Hey. You're up. Did you sleep well?” Damian asked from the other end of the phone “Yes. How about you?”“Actually,I didn't sleep well”“Why? Are you not feeling good?” Ruby asked with concern.“Because I missed you so much”“Come on,what are you doing?” She blushed and cover her face like she was shy“I'm in front of your house. Let's go to work together”“What? I'm just waking up and I might take your time. I'll just come over to your place”“Since I'm here already,I'll wait. Take your time. Although,I want to see you as soon as possible” he said before ending the call “What? Does he want me to take my time or hurry up?” Ruby grinned and jumped out of bed. She kept smiling as she

“Should I call him to come over?” Ruby said to herself as she walked to the living room after taking a shower. “What if he is busy?” She sighed and threw the towel that was in her hand somewhere,but it fell on the floor lamp Mark gave her. Though they spent the whole day together at work sneaking around,being away from him made her long for his presence more.“He is my boyfriend, right? Why I'm I thinking too much about it?” She asked herself and grabbed her philosophy that was on the table to message Damian to come over to her place.“Do you mind eating pizza with me while we watch my favourite TV show?” She sent the message and began to pace around, waiting for his reply.DAMIAN: Babe,I'm sorry,but I'm kind of busy tonight. How about tomorrow? Ruby scoffed when she saw his reply. She had thought he would willingly accept her invitation and just rushed down to her place since she was his girlfriend and should be one of his priorities. “How can he say he is busy?” She went towards

Veronica was about to slide into the driver's seat when her phone buzzed in her bag, alerting her to an incoming message. She paused, her hand on the door handle, and pulled out her phone to check the content of the message. As she gazed at the screen, her eyes widened in shock and anger. It was a picture of Damian in front of his house with a woman whose face wasn't visible to the camera. Veronica's eyes flashed with fury as she exclaimed, "I want her fucking face! damn it!" Her anger boiled over, and she lashed out, kicking the tire of her car out of anger.—--------“Do you want me to make you a quick dinner?”Damian asked Ruby when they were in his house.“No,I'm fine,” she smiled and removed all the disguise Damian had gotten her earlier.“Are you sure?”“I can't just stop thinking about how a fine was all the punishment he got. If I had put the the floor lamp on my room, then he will be having my nudes!”“The good thing is he doesn't. I don't want you to think about this anymore,

When Rita woke up,she had delayed opening her eyes because she thought Damian was still in bed. Though he was her boyfriend,she still felt so shy to look at him after spending a passionate night with him. She stretched out her hand to see if he was still in bed,but when she couldn't reach him,she guessed he was no longer in bed so she opened her eyes.She smiled to herself when she remembered how he made her feel loved and wanted. She covered her face in excitement and flung her legs in the air. She got out of bed hurriedly,she went to shower before Damian would come back. It was after showering that she realised that she wasn't with any clothes to wear to the office. “I'll just go home first” she said to herself and wore her outfit from yesterday back. She checked the time on her phone and it was 7am. She tied her hair into a ponytail before she left the room with her things. As she got out of the room,she got a whiff of the aroma of chicken and her stomach rumbled. “Is he…”

“Who I'm I speaking with please?” Ruby asked when her desk phone rang.“This is Ashley Stevenson. Damian's mom” Ruby jumped on her feet immediately she heard it was Ashley and cleared her throat.“Mr Stevenson is currently in a meeting ma’am. Is there a message you want to drop for him?” She asked politely.“No,I didn't call because of him. I called because I wanted to speak with you”“Me?” Ruby became nervous as she kept wondering what Ashley wanted to discuss with her. She guessed Ashley had found out about their relationship,so she began to rehearse her speech and prepared herself for whatever rude things Ashley might say to her.“I want you to come over to my place this Saturday. There is something I'd like to discuss with you. And of course it should be between us”“This Saturday?” Ruby asked because she already had a date with Damian and she would have to come up with an excuse for him.“You don't have time? Then come on Friday after work”“Oh,that will be better ma..”“See yo
THE HEIR Chapter 51
Around 10 am,Damian came over to Ruby's house to pick her up for their movie date,not after he made sure that whoever was spying on him lost track of him already. As he waited for her to come out,he remembered Mark,the pervert who was spying on Ruby and his blood boiled. “That bastard!” He muttered under his breath. The police only fined Mark,so Damian took matters in his own hands because he wasn't satisfied with the punishment given to him. With his connection,he got him fired from the Company he worked for and also put out his pictures and his immoral behaviour all over the internet through an anonymous account,so everyone already knows him as a pervert.“Why are you doing this to me? You are just her boss and I'm sure you are just like me! You are only pretending!” Mark had yelled at Damian when he saw how Damian was ready to spoil his life.“You must have been doing this for so long,but unfortunately for you,you ran into me. You messed with the wrong person. And not everyone

Esther kept staring at the two of them as she sipped her coffee, making a loud sound. She just couldn't believe what she had seen and kept hoping it was all a dream. Ruby,on the other hand,was trying so hard not to look at her while Damian just kept holding Ruby's hand like a lover boy fighting for his love.“So you two are dating?” Esther asked the question she had been asking them ever since they got to the cafe. “Yes,” the two of them said in unison.“What? When? Why? How?” Esther blurted out.“I fell in love with her first ever since I laid my eyes on her,I knew she was the woman for me”Damian said and looked at Ruby,then smiled. “Aww” Ruby said and blushed.“Is it a problem?” Damian asked Esther.“Yes it is! We all saw how your mom made a fuss when we all thought you slept over at her place. I'm worried about you as a good friend. You know that right?”.“I know and that is why we clicked easily. You are a good person. But what can I do when I fall in love?”“You could have avo

Veronica gazed intensely at the picture of Damian and the unknown woman that Ashley had sent her, but she wasn't convinced. She felt that Ashley was missing something. She called her secretary through the intercom, and within a minute, her secretary was in her office. "Can you show me the picture of Mr. Stevenson with his unknown girlfriend that was trending on their company website?" she asked. "It's been taken down, but fortunately, I saved it," her secretary replied. "You saved it? Why?" Veronica asked, leaning forward on her desk, her eyes fixed intently on her secretary. "Because I knew you would ask for it one day," her secretary replied, and Veronica nodded in approval. She had known her secretary long enough to know that she would anticipate her requests, and whenever she couldn't fulfil them in the past, Veronica would become upset. "Good thinking," she said, stretching out her hand. "Let me see." She took her secretary's phone and compared the pictures. The difference w
