CHAPTER TEN When Damien and Charles were done eating at the restaurant, it was already late into the night. Charles took Damien straight to the Silverio’s Mansion situated in one of the most prestigious villas at the heart of the city. Damien was confused as to why Charles decided to bring him here but at the same time, he couldn’t deny not enjoying the thrilling views, he began to admire the whole environment and everything that concerned it. The beauty and serenity blend well with the atmosphere. He kept basking in the beauty view, for a moment, he forgot Charles was a total stranger to him. Their car drove through a huge automated black gate. While they walked from the car park to the main building, Damien already lost count of the numbers of men dressed in black suits they had passed standing at strategic places in the compound. It was late at night but some of the domestic staff were still up, they came across a few of them and they all would stop, bow slightly in a cour
CHAPTER ELEVEN Waking up, everything felt strange! From the soft texture feel of the bedding material that Damien laid, to the spicy exotic fragrance. “Did he really sleep in a room like this for the night?” Damien wondered. Everything felt like a mirage. Damien was startled when a knock sounded on the door. “Good morning Sir Damien,'’ A lady's voice greeted from the other side of the door. "Good morning" Damien responded in a rough voice, he was still laden with sleep. When Damien noticed the person wasn't going away any time soon, he decided to let them in and put his bath and questioning on hold. “Please come in,” Damien called out. He sluggishly moved up into a sitting posture while he waited for the person to come in. The door clicked open and a young lady, nicely dressed in a black dress and a white apron came in with a tray in her hand. Damien stared at her as she placed the tray of meal on the table. "This is your breakfast sir Damien" she said and Damien nodded ton
CHAPTER 12Gabriel Silverio walked into the room with a deep frown etched on his face, he glanced at them hoping what he heard was wrong.“Whose son is he?” He repeated his question again.“Oh, Gabriel, can you believe this? We have found Jason” Don Romano turned towards his brother.“It was such a coincidence, I can’t believe after so many years, I would still see my Jason here” Mrs. Silverio said.Damien was getting uncomfortable about the discussion, it hasn’t seat well with him yet that he is the son of one of the prominent men in America. He couldn’t believe he is a Silverio, a name he has held countless times, a name that parts ways for people, he has the blood of a Silverio running through his veins.“I can’t believe this brother, we all thought Jason was dead and he is here in the flesh standing right in front of us” Gabriel said, staring at Damien, observing the uncanny resemblance between the man standing right in front of him and his brother.“I, uhm, I think I have to go
THE SILVERIO'S HEIRCHAPTER THIRTEENDamien hadn’t taken up to ten steps towards the dormitory entrance when a gruff and hallowed voice halted him on his track.“Well! well!! well!! look who we have here, the UNKNOWN GUY is back”. A jeering and sarcastic statement was the least thing he had expected now. He ignored the statement and tried to walk into his dormitory but the guys who were jeering at him didn't give him the space to walk in as the pulled him by his collar.Damien gritted his teeth and clenched his fists in anger. More of the students began to trop out from their dorms to come watch the drama unfolds.“He’s not backing down, is he?”. One of the guys said with a disdain and loathing looks on his face.“He was drove here by a luxurious car. It could be he has already been paid for tarnishing Miss. Beauty's image.” They were referring to the car that drove him to the entrance, they had seen it. A clear sign, they were on the lookout for him.“Come on, tell us, did you steal
THE SILVERIO’S HEIRCHAPTER FOURTEEN.Damien, who had first requested to be taken to the Silverio’s mansion had decided to take a detour first.He had told Charles to take him to his favorite spot. Fortunately for him, the beach was free of crowds and he sat there deep in his thoughts.“Should I leave you alone sir Damien?” Charles asked, bringing Damien back to the present.“No, no, Charles, it’s fine. Please take a seat” Damien patted the empty sandy space beside him and Charles who had no choice reluctantly sat down.Charles, who had witnessed the cruelty Damien had gone through, had wanted him to be strong but he began to doubt his wish when he began to see the cold exterior Damien possessed.“You are Don Romano right hand man right?” Damien asked, still staring far ahead into the sea.“Yes” Charles replied, he was confused as to why Damien would ask him such a question, when Damien was fully aware who he was to Don Romano.“Correct me if I am wrong. You must have known everything
THE SILVERIO'S HEIRCHAPTER FIFTEENThe steam heat from the shower and droplets of water trickled down the coverage see-through glass of the bathroom door where Damien was having his bath slid open with him walking out with a towel tied around his torso.The shower had felt good on his body as he felt a lot better. The wounds and bruises were almost gone, only a few tiny little scars. At first, he was scared that the scars would never go away.Mrs. Silverio had assured him it would fade away when she had come into his room last night and had spoken to him.“But for it to completely heal, you will need to apply some ointments which I will provide for you,” She had supplied him with almost all the healing herbs she owned. Which made him wonder if she knew he was going to come running back to them.“Stop thinking about all these Damien and focus on the plan”. He muttered to himself and went on to apply the ointments and other items, to get himself ready for the day.Mr. Don Romano, his
THE SILVERIO’S HEIRCHAPTER SIXTEENDamien’s face was squeezed into knots as he frowned as two ladies kept working on his hair and two others worked on both his feet and hands separately.He was discomforted but needed to put up a face and endure the torture being administered to him under the façade appearance of spa treatments.He wondered if this was what ladies and most especially the ones who were able to come here go through.“Just how much longer does this have to take?”. Damien grunted under his breath. He was beginning to feel irritated with so many hands working on his body.“Pardon Sir, we will be done in some minutes"A polite voice of one of the lady attendants answered but Damien was sure that was far from being true.After some time, Damien began to feel relaxed as It looked like they were already putting a finishing touch on his face, “Here sir, we are done”. The lady that had earlier spoken, announced to Damien taking off the covering on his face after ten more minutes
THE SILVERIO'S HEIR CHAPTER 17 Silence ensued between them as Mrs. Silverio felt her tongue tied. She didn’t know what to say but had no choice but to accept Damien's demand. After all, he was an adult and she couldn’t force him to stay at the mansion. “Of course, there isn’t an issue” she finally said and Damien gave a nod. “Not as if I don’t like it here but I also need to inform them about all these” Damien pointed towards the mansion. He knew if the information had gotten to his adopted parents before he did they would feel bad about it. The day for the party Don Romano had told him was close and he knew it was only a matter of time before his parents would find out. “I understand you Damien,” Agatha said. She tried to conceal the sadness in her eyes but Damien could still see the sadness and pain in her eyes. “It’s getting late and I need to get some rest,” Damien said. “Of course,” Agatha Silverio replied. Damien had no intentions to rest, he was to meet up with Char
