CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FOURTY" Who is at the door?" Lesley asked. She was not expecting anyone to come at that moment. She didn't need anything and besides, she would be leaving the house in a short while. Her plans for the evening was to come and get what she needed and then get out of the house. She was not planning to stay back or do anything so she wasn't expecting any of the servants around her." It's Lily, Miss" the younger woman at the door answered. ' Lily?' thought Lesley. She wasn't sure she had heard of that name before." Come in" she said to the person standing outside her room.The door opened to reveal a younger lady that also served in the mansion. She was currently the youngest serving member in the house. She was new too and Lesley knew she hadn't seen that face before since she had been home. Maybe Martha got more recruits to serve in the house.She was not sure she knew who this Lily was. " What do you want?" Lesley asked while staring at her. Her face looke

Sam" he called for her that evening after they had dinner. " Where are you?" There was no response in the house and her parents had retired back to their room for the night. Mr. Manns, although a night person, he was a very early sleeper who often fell asleep easily and tonight was just one of those nights.He was asleep already, had probably gotten tired from all the stress and work of the day.Damien stopped at the front of her door and noticed that she wasn't inside the house also, probably she was outside on the rooftop like always. He went out of the apartment in search of herWhile he followed through the hallway that led to the place he was headed, he saw a figure lurking around the dark staircase that led to the rooftop. He wasn't sure if he saw a person or if it was a shadow. ' Who was that

Most times, he was busy and often not always at home.Samantha plans for the night was to actually sneak out of the house to see Judith, her friend. She had an event that they were both meant to attend that night and she didn't want anyone to know about it. She had decided to tell her parents that she was going to visit her friend alone. " Are you planning to go out?" Damien asked. It seemed like she had a place to go.Samantha looked up at his face that was now more visible in the night as a result of the reflection of the light from the bulb.Who knows, maybe Damien could tag along too? She thought about telling him of the situation on ground or maybe she should chan

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FOURTY- THREESamantha was lucky to have been caught by him just in time before she fell off the ground. His strong arms held her very carefully and she wished that they could just stay in the same position for a while.If only he could notice the way she saw him and how she felt about him." Are you okay?" Damien asked, breaking the silence that had ensued that instant between them. The fall that almost happened made them both stay silent for sometime with Damien's arms still holding onto her closely to himself and Samantha feeling very comfortable with being in his hands. She wished that she could stay like that for the whole day but it was not possible.It felt to her like a scene from a movie, the way the cool breeze blew slowly across their faces from the opened door that led to the rooftop. And their attention concentrated on each other.Samantha could feel the blush on her face that night. She was thankful that it was night because if it was day, he wo

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FOURTY- FOURDamien followed after her the moment she pulled him by the arm, claiming they had to be very fast as they were already late behind schedule and should have been on the way to the party now."We don't have all the time in the world. Come on" Samantha said, pulling him closer to the door.As she was about to head out, she heard someone call her name. She knew that voice like the back of her hands, it was her father." Don't be late Samantha" her father, Mr. Mann said to her. She turned her face away from the door to face him as he spoke. She didn't want them to know about her planning to leave the house but she left anyways." Until when were you planning to tell us about your plans to attend this " Party" with your so called friends that you are going to meet?" She heard another voice ask her and she knew it. Both of them, her father and mother were going to gang up against her for the night." It's not a so called friend, mum and dad" she told the

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FOURTY- FIVESamantha watched silently as Damien kept speaking on the phone with no one else but Lesley. He didn't have to tell her, she was very certain.Was that a smile she saw on his face? What exactly were they speaking of, she wanted to know. Her curiousity was getting the best of her and she could not help it." Who is the person you just spoke to?" Samantha asked him. She wanted to hear it from his mouth and also to be sure.Damien dropped his cellphone into his pocket and turned his face towards hers. " It is Lesley" he answered." I knew it" she whispered under her breath, and with an inaudible tone that showed her displeasure.k" Why did she call you?" She asked him. " What does she want with you today?" She hoped that he would not find her questions funny and nosy. She just wanted to be sure about her motive for calling. Who knows, she might want to join them and that was going to be a no-no, hoping that Lesley would not try in anyway to ruin the

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FOURTY- SIX"You kept us waiting" Samantha grumbled to Judith the moment she walked over to join them at the last floor of the building." I am really sorry. Please forgive me" Judith apologized. She didn't mean to just keep her bestie waiting." Good evening" she greeted Damien the moment her gaze shifted away from Samantha to him. He was standing close to Samantha and his attention was sort of all over the place. She looked at him and wondered if he knew a person in the place they were." Sam?" Samantha called him while giving him a gentle nudge on the shoulder.Damien's attention returned to them, the man whom he had seen earlier and his eyes had been desperately searching for earlier was no longer anywhere close which made him think the person had some supernatural power of some sort." Hi!" Judith greeted him again the moment she saw that they had finally gotten his full attention. She did not know that he was going to join Samantha. So, it came like a sur

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FOURTY - SEVENSamantha felt the need to use the toilet at that moment so she decided to tell the others about her plans to use the restroom." I have to use the restroom now" she said to Judith. " I'll be right back"" Should I tag along?" Judith asked her. " No, you don't have to worry. Keep him company. I'll be right back, hon" Samantha said to Judith. She looked up to Damien whom she was pointing at only to find him staring at his phone.He seemed to be presently focused on the message he was reading as his attention was no longer on them or the venue they were all in.She guessed it must be Lesley who was on the phone with him again. She sure knows how to wrap her way around him. ' Could they not even have the night alone with him anymore now?' she thought before sighing.Samantha knew this one thing and she would not deny it. The fact that she was jealous and maybe angry even that Lesley was successfully winning him over. Even though she had been think

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY- FIVE" Damien it's me!" The young lady called out to him much to his surprise. She acted as though she knew him before."So, it really is true that you are still alive!" She screamed out of sheer excitement seeing him standing in front of her that instant after they had all the thought he was long gone and had now become nothing but a passing memory in their lives." Damien, it's me, have you forgotten about me?" The strange lady standing in front if him asked but he only got more shocked and perplexed.He didn't know if he knew who she was or if he had met her before." Who are you, I'm not sure I know you miss" he said and turned to look at Lesley to see if he was dreaming or not. How could a certain woman who he was not sure he knew existed just come out of God knows where claiming to know him and that he was Damien." Damien?" Lesley asked, she decided to butt in and get involved in the discussion that had ensued that evening between her fiance and

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-FOURLesley knew that her father was going to be against her decision of marrying whoever it was she wanted, she knew he would object and never agree but she had decided there and then too that she was ready to stand her ground, come what may and no matter what happens." Dad, that's what I wanted to let you know. I had to let you meet with my fiance" she said, looking at his face to read his expression. He had an expression of shock and surprise.She guessed that he must probably feel that way because he'd never thought of her doing something like that to him.After a brief seconds when she had revealed her purpose of calling the meeting out to him, Mr. Smith laughed for a while which got both Lesley and Damien surprised.They looked at each other wondering what made the older man laugh. " What's so funny about what I just told you dad?" Lesley blurted out, she was sure that all she just said to him now had no content of humour whatsoever in it that co

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-THREEThe words Lesley's father just uttered caught Damien unawares as he could not seem to fix the pieces together from any angle.Why would the man make claims that his face was familiar? Where could they have met before? For all he knew, they had never seen face to face except now. And, he had only caught a glimpse of Lesley's father's face in her mobile phone or in a magazine he found among her belongings some weeks back.So, he couldn't get a clear picture as to why his face looked familiar to the older man. It was not like he was a popular person or that he was a son of a rich magnate too who was popular." I don't know why you look familiar to me too." Lesley's father said, still looking straight into Damien's eyes. "I have never met you, neither would I have had the thought of having any business with you let alone think of squeezing a few minutes out of my schedule to have to seat before you now" Mr. Smith said in a hoarse voice which made it o

When is he going to be dropping by the restaurant?" The waiter asked before be turned around to go to the kitchen." He will be here in few minutes to come" She replied the young gentleman before he took his leave from their table.And just then, she heard a beep from her mobile phone, it was her bodyguard, George. She guessed that he must have something that he wanted to say to her. Picking up the mobile phone from the table, she checked the screen to see what it was that he had sent." The chairman is here already, his car is packed right outside here" the message read.That showed that her father was in the restaurant already.'
