Fortunately for him, Mrs Stevenson's secretary was a very good fighter and while he was fighting the man in a hoodie, Javier came to his senses and ran out to call security instead of just watching in fear. When he came back with security men, the man was already subdued and was taken away by the security. "This place is definitely not safe anymore for you" he said once they were left alone. "I can't believe someone is trying to kill me because they think I'm someone who is already dead" he said while breathing heavily. "Didn't you guys tell me I'm safe? How on earth did they know my location?" He asked impatiently. "We have no idea of how they found out." "I can't spend another night here. I've recovered fully" "I need to answer this call. Excuse me", the secretary walked out, leaving Javier pacing around. —----------------- "Any updates from the police?" Ashley asked impatiently. "He isn't changing his story. He kept saying he tried to kill Damian on his own." "As expecte
Javier knew what he was in for and how important it was for him to do what Ashley said in order to be safe. In two weeks, he started boxing, learned how to speak like Damian and how to walk just like him. He also got used to being called Damian, but the name 'Javier' that his parents named him was engraved in his heart. Mrs Stevenson's secretary, referred to as Thomas, came to his room to drop the suit Ashley had chosen for him to wear since it was the day he would be appearing before the board of directors. "Everything will be fine" Thomas said after sensing his nervousness. "Mrs Stevenson wants you to wear this, there will be a driver waiting for you when you are done." "Thank you, Thomas" he replied calmly. —---------- —---------- Since Mathew didn't succeed in killing Damian, he knew Ashley would be able to bring him before the Board of Directors, which makes his blood boil in anger. In no time, his seat in the company would be taken away by his sworn enemy. "During the la
Matthew angrily walked out of the company and entered his car that had been waiting for him. He couldn't believe there would be a day Damian would actually take over the company. "President? President my foot!" He yelled. He was also so angry about the new developments in the company, but he got more infuriated when he saw Damian resume to the office. "I will make sure I destroy both Mother and Son and take over the company," he said between gritted teeth and his chest heaved up and down in anger. He took out his phone and dialed a number. "I don't care about how long it will take, but your plan on killing him must put him six feet under the ground, okay?" He yelled and ended the call. Angrily, he kicked the back of the driver's seat. "Drive, you fool!" He yelled at the innocent driver. "I really can't believe you will be leaving me all alone here" Esther, one of the workers in Stevenson's group said to Ruby. The two of them were best friends in the office. "What would I do
“But then, where on earth is Javier?” Ruby asked herself randomly as she dressed up for work. “Oh shit! I'm running late!” She exclaimed immediately as her eyes wandered to the wall clock. Knowing fully well that Damian wasn't very nice to her, getting to work late was a way to ask for trouble. She immediately put some finishing touches to her outfit and grabbed her car keys. She decided to be a good secretary and get coffee on her way for Damian. Maybe, just maybe, it would melt his heart. “Hi, can I get an Americano to take away please?” She placed her order after entering a coffee shop closer to the company. She wore a smile immediately as she entered the office lobby, and she smiled at everyone who greeted her. She hastened her pace when she caught a glimpse of Damian waiting for the elevator. She was glad that he also came late to work, so she wouldn't be scolded. By the time she got to the elevator, it was about to close, but she was fast enough to stop it with her leg,
While getting ready to leave the office, Damian's phone rang in his chest pocket. It was Thomas calling him. Damian couldn't help but wonder why he was calling. “Good evening Thomas” he said when the call was connected. “Good evening Mr Stevenson. If I may ask,are you still in the office?” “Yes,why? Is everything fine?” He asked with concern “So tomorrow is Mrs Ashley's birthday and I think it would be a good idea to get her a birthday gift. The real Damian gets her one every year. This year shouldn't be an exemption, don't you think?” “Oh! I didn't even know her birthday is tomorrow. Do you have any suggestions on what she would like?” “I'll leave you to decide that. Goodnight sir” he said and ended the call, leaving Damian to think on his own. Damian grabbed his things and left the office. “See you tomorrow” He said to Ruby who was expecting him to give her some rude attitude. He didn't even wait for her reply and just left. “Drive to any Chanel store around” he instructed t
"Why are you here?” He asked curiously as he got out of his car. “I called Thomas, and I was told you weren't at home yet, so I decided to wait for you out here”, Ruby said, and walked closer to him. “That still doesn't answer my question”, he folded his arms across his chest and waited for her to speak. “When I became your Assistant, I was told to assist you in areas you find difficulty and to also put you through, but I don't think there will ever be a chance for me to work properly if I don't address this particular issue” She paused briefly to be sure he was still with her. “You are being too harsh on me that your sight scares me. I understand that our first meeting wasn't so great, but that doesn't mean I'm incapable or dumb!” “Okay….?”. “It is either you stop being harsh on me or I quit! You don't even try to see the good side of me. All you do is to complain and vent. Now Mr Stevenson, if you really want me to remain your Assistant, I would advise you to do something about
"You got this for me?" Ashley asked, feeling very emotional."Do you like it? Happy birthday, Ashley. I'm so grateful for meeting someone as good as you". Damian hugged and consoled her."Thank you, Damian. I really wasn't expecting anything from you. How did you know about my birthday?""Well, Thanks to Thomas. I would have gotten something better if it wasn't last minute" he said smiled at her."Something better? This is good enough" she said and admired the bag"Now, you should get going to work, okay? We can have a mini-party with Thomas later."--------------Memories of the previous night flooded his memory when he saw Ruby in the office. Talking to Ashley about Mathew's threat made him totally forget about Ruby's proposal to him. Not like he really needed to think before making a decision, he already knew what he wanted.“Good morning Mr Stevenson” Ruby greeted him politely, yet the coldness in her voice couldn't be missed.“Good morning. What do I have on my schedule today?” He
Damian was enjoying his warm bath in his bathtub,when a man wearing black hoodie and trousers carefully entered, obviously trying not to make any sound. He stood In front of Damian's Bathtub in a very creepy way,and when Damian finally sensed that there was someone else in the bathroom with him,he flung his eyes open. “Who the fuck are you?” He yelled and tried to stand up but the man overpowered him before he could. He covered his mouth to prevent him from shouting,and before Damian could grasp what was going on,he felt something cold on his neck and then there was blood. The man then moved away from him while Damian held his neck in pain and fought for his life. The man's phone rang and he took it out from his back pocket. “Don't worry Mr Mathew,I'm almost done with him” he said and the call ended. “Please…..I….d.don’t want..t..to die” Damian pleaded in pain as tears fell from his eyes. The hotel's phone rang in the room and the man left the bathroom to answer the call,then he
