"A cleaner? What are you talking about Mom?" Anna blurted, stunned to hear that.
"Yes, dear. We thought there was a mistake, but the manager showed him the contract he signed, revealing that he signed with them as a cleaner and not the CEO's partner," She cried in embarrassment."You need to see how people were laughing at your father. He couldn't even bear the shame and ran away, " Mrs Blackwood added, pointing at her husband.Indeed he was lost. The old man couldn't take out the embarrassment."I told my friends to watch the live program. I told them to watch it, " He said, looking at the news.The screen shows how Mr Blackwood ran off from the event in shame, with his wife following him, covering her face from the cameras pointed at them by several journalists.Annoyed by it, he ordered that the TV be turned off."I don't want to see it!" He yelled, rising from the couch and rushing up the stairs."Father!" Anna called, making an attempt to follow him."Let him be," Ken said, acting all mature."I can understand how he's feeling. Just give him some time to heal," He said, walking up to the screen to turn it off.Ken smiled devilishly when he saw Mr Blackwood running away on the screen. He felt much better than before."Mr Rosario won't make someone like you a partner. You are unworthy to work with us. So stick to your cleaner job," Mr Hardy said on the screen, leaving Ken chuckling inaudibly."There has to be a mistake somewhere. Was Mr Rosario there? " Anna asked her mother.Mrs Blackwood revealed that the CEO, Damien, wasn't even present at his own party."It was just his staff, the manager, and business partners. Then the media as well, " She added.Anna feels upset about this, seeing it as an injustice to her father.Mrs Blackwood decided to go and meet her husband, leaving Anna and Ken alone."This is unfair. They did father wrong," She said, groaning in anger.Ken scoffed and said to her, "I knew it was too good to be true.""What is that supposed to mean, " She asked, glaring at Ken.Ken doesn't hide his feelings at all. He said, " Your father who doesn't have much skills like me, was suddenly chosen by a trillionaire to be among his partner? I knew it was all a sham.""Are you saying my father doesn't have skills? " She sparked at Ken, throwing her fist at him.He grabbed it and pulled Anna close, pinning her against the wall. She looked into his daring eyes as he said, " Yes, he doesn't. And you too know that."She groaned at him."Think about it, Anna. He was called over without proposing, then he was invited to a grand party just to be humiliated. Isn't it obvious that this CEO was actually using your father to play games?"Anna reasoned what Ken just shared and became all mad."That bastard! He made my father a laughing stock before all for entertainment? How dare him?!" She roared getting mad.Ken kept adding salt to Anna's wound, so she'd know how he felt when she was bragging about her father being a partner at D. F company.It made Anna feel low before Ken's feet after everything.But now she was out for a fight."I'm going to see that ungrateful man and give him a piece of my mind. I'll make him regret ever hurting my father, " Anna promised.Ken, who also had a score to settle with the trillionaire, decided to join his girlfriend.."You can not see the boss. He's not available for any visitation," A secretary had said to Anna and Ken.The two came over to the company to find the CEO and rage at him."Don't tell me that nonsense. It's an important matter, so get him on the line now," Anna demanded.But the secretary wouldn't attend to her.Ken decided to give it a try by telling the secretary who he was and how important it was to see Mr Rosario.Since he showed proof of himself as a business owner, the secretary allowed them in.Anna and Ken stormed into the lift, waiting for it to arrive at their destination.When they stepped out, they spotted the CEO's office ahead and made their way towards it."I'll make that man pay for humiliating my father, " Anna vowed, walking faster than Ken.But before they arrived next to the door, the door came open, and someone stepped out.When Anna saw this person, she was shocked."You?!" She exclaimed.The one who came out was Damien, all dressed in a nice suit while talking on the phone.He was also surprised to see Anna and Ken at his company."Oh, if it isn't the filthy man," Ken mocked Damien, referring to that night."What are you doing here?" Anna asked him, looking at his appearance."I should be asking you that question. Who allowed you two in here?" He questioned, glaring at them while ending his call.The tone he used, got Anna annoyed."Don't tell us you came here looking for a job. You look so ridiculous in that suit. It doesn't fit you one bit, " Ken mocked further, laughing at Damien."Yeah, you look stupid. I'm sure you got kicked out by the CEO when he saw you," Anna added, smirking at Damien.Damien smirked back at them, placing both hands in his pocket."It's clear that you didn't get hired by the CEO. He must have thrown up on seeing your poor face. Step aside and let those with business minds meet with the CEO, " Anna said, walking forward.But Damien stood in her way, saying, " I can't allow you two to step in here.""And why?" Ken asked.Just when they asked, Mr Hardy came towards Damien, calling him Mr Rosario.This shocked Anna and Ken, who looked at Damien at once, uttering, "Mr Rosario?""You're Mr Rosario?" Anna asked, staring in disbelief."That's a lie. I bet we heard wrong," Ken believed, refusing to accept that Damien, a poor man, was the owner of D. F company and a trillionaire.Mr Hardy looked at the two and questioned, " Are you two blind?"Ken and Anna faced him."Is that how to speak to the C...""CEO's personal secretary," Damien chipped in, cutting his manager off.Hardy looked at his boss and saw how calm he was while talking to Anna and Ken."You two have no respect for the CEO's personal secretary, and you think the boss would see you? I doubt," Damien said with pride."Personal secretary? What a lie," Ken doubted, refusing to accept a wealthy man like Rosario would hire someone like Damien as his P.S.Anna too didn't want to believe it, not until Hardy backed Damien up, telling them that Damien was the CEO's secretary. "If you want to see the boss, you have to go through him, " Mr Hardy pointed out. Ken looked at the duo and felt uncomfortable. "And
"What? Are you sure about this?""A hundred percent, Mom. That man was there. He's the personal secretary to Mr Rosario!" Anna sparked out, sharing the details of what transpired at D. F company."You need to see the way he was acting like the boss. He threw Ken and I out of the company!" Anna sparked, showing her anger over the issue.Mr and Mrs Blackwood are stunned by this."It's true. That asshole is the Personal secretary to the CEO. Even the manager confirmed it. He just stood there watching Damien control us like we're nothing," Ken added."This is outrageous. How is a man like Damien a personal secretary to a trillionaire? What qualifications does he possess to attain such a position?" Mr Blackwood questioned, finding this unacceptable."Same thing I was going to ask. How did a poor man from the slum get to that place? There's no way a trillionaire like that would choose him as his P. S. Something isn't right, " Mrs Blackwood pointed out.Mr Blackwood supported his wife, belie
Stella is surprised to learn Anna's father was humiliated at a party held by Damien.She didn't even know that Damien had started his revenge on them. And now his action is planting fear in her father's heart."I'm losing hope here. Should I sell the company out to raise back the money?""Father, don't. You won't be selling anything.""Then how will I pay those that I'm owing? I had so many plans for that money, and now I don't know what or where to start from," He said, feeling down.Unable to bear her father's pain, Stella suggested, " Go ahead with the business proposal with D. F company. I'm sure you'll be accepted."Mr McCardy looked at his daughter and saw nothing but assurance written all over her."Just give it a try father. I know you'll get in. Just stay positive," She said, encouraging the petrified man.Having his daughter's support, Mr McCardy decided to do as she said."Okay, I will send in my proposal this night. Thank you, my dear, " He appreciated, hugging Stella."Yo
That night, Stella made dinner for both her father and herself. She didn't allow the maid to do it but felt like making her father's favorite meal to calm his worried heart, by herself.Stella came to tell her father, who was staring at his phone in the living room with fear, to tell him dinner was ready. "I'm coming dear. Just give me some minutes," He said, checking his mail."Father, their response won't just come in with speed. Just put that aside and have your dinner, " She said, walking up to him and taking his phone away."What if it comes in while I'm eating? I don't want to receive a heartbreaking response that'll send me choking on my food.""Father, please put that aside. You won't be holding your phone while eating because it'll be with me. Now come along," Stella said, pulling her father along with her to the dining room.Just as they were about to enter the dining room, Mr McCardy spotted someone familiar at the entrance of their home."Oh, Damien," He called.Stella,
Mr Blackwood managed to put the embarrassment from the party, way behind him.He was at his company preparing for a meeting with his coworkers, when he got a call from his friend, Mr McCardy, saying he had good news to share with him.He didn't want to listen to him but soon allowed his friend to come over and share with him the good news. "It should help me forget about my worries, " He believed, preparing for his friend.Mr McCardy came over and the two got to talk about some things, before Blackwood reminded him, " You said you have good news to share with me.""Oh yes, I do. This news is massive, " He said, sitting right."Waw, massive you say? I'm curious to hear this, " He chuckled."It's big my friend. You are looking at one of D. F company's partners," McCardy shared with Blackwood, who looked at his friend like one who was joking."Are you pulling my leg? I know you well McCardy. You are afraid to even lift your phone and text the company. How did you...""I'm not lying my f
Oh Damien, this isn’t right. Exacting revenge on the Blackwoods doesn’t make you any less than them, Stella thought.“You seem lost in your thoughts Stella. What are you thinking about?” Damien said, handing her phone back to her.“No, nothing.”“I know that you’re worried about the bet. You don’t need to worry about me. It is them you need to worry about because when I’m done with them….” Damien shook his head in anger. “Leave it Stella. C’mon let’s head back home.Damien took Stella to the parking spot he had parked his car.“Here you go, my lady,” Damien opened the car door for Stella and they both giggled.Damien drove Stella to his mansion..“Good evening, Sir,” Hillary, Damien’s servant, dressed in black tuxedo greeted Damien as he opened the car door for him.Hilary rushed and opened the car door for Stella. “Good evening, ma’am.”Stella gazed at the mansion in amazement. Truly it was a mansion fit for a trilionaire. Damien had his name printed on the gate of the house. In the
Chapter 12“No, Dad, I want to take the first step in punishing that incompetent fool called Damien,” Anna said furiously.“No no, babe. I think your father’s right. Which story of what Damien had done to us was the saddest? It is definitely his, so—”“What do you mean by that? Are you trying to say that my husband was seriously humiliated and can’t stand in front of society because of that?” Mrs Blackwood roared in anger.“No, Mrs Blackwood. I’m not saying any of that. All I’m saying is that if Anna was to go and explain what happened at the show, he wouldn’t believe her because she wouldn’t have the full detail. Now tell me, who is better to tell a story than who it happened to?” Ken said with a slight grin.“You’re right, Ken. Dad will go and narrate is sad story of torture to the CEO and I’m sure he will sympathize with you and punish that street dog, Damien. Tomorrow, we strike,” Anna said with a serious look on her face..“Good morning, Sir,” the security guard greeted Mr Black
“And how do you intend on doing that, Anna?” Ken asked with a puzzled look on his face.“I don’t have a plan yet but what I want to say is that everyone will participate in bringing down Damien. We all have to split up into two teams and attack Damien from different angles. When we’re through with him, he will return back to the streets where he belongs,” Anna smiled. “Mum, Dad, you both are on the same team now. While Ken and I are in the same team.”“Listen up, Ken,” Anna pointed her finger at him with eagerness in her eyes. “We will strike tomorrow. May the best team rejoice most in Damien's suffering!”.He turned to one side of the bed and felt uncomfortable. He turned to the other side of the bed and had the same exact feeling. He yanked off the bed sheets from the bed because he was feeling hot. He shifted to one side of the bed and the temperature remained the same. He has been going at this for the past four hours. Thus, he slept at eleven o’clock. “Why am I finding it diffic
Anna was confused when she heard Damien say those words and she knew that something was wrong. She looked at the paper in her hands and it was clear what had happened. Damien had used Damien to sign the paper instead of Rosario.“You fool!” Anna pulled out the gun, it was clear that she was going to shoot Damien and he knew that it would come to that being prepared for her Damien threw himself there before she could fire a shot.It was a struggle to take the gun from her, he wanted to make sure that there was nothing that would harm Stella.Damien overpowered Anna and he was not going to leave her like that he took her down and made sure that he was the one with the gun.“You know Anna, I call this a double defeat and to beat you twice is something that I would not even imagine was possible.”Damien pinned Anna down and he was about to take her away when a gun shot was heard.Damien was shot in the arm,when Anna tried to shoot Stella but there was no telling if it was serious because
Damien went to his office that day with his car and full fleet of guards, he was not going to be hiding who he was anymore. It was going to be either that or he would not even think of going out that day. He made sure he told everyone who he was and he was not going to be hiding it, he knew that there was no way he would be in trouble.“Mr. Rosario, it is nice to see you here this morning like this. I wondered if you were not going to be showing up but here you are.” Hardy smiled when he saw Damien come in the way he did.“Why in the world would I miss a day of work for anything? I know that yesterday was mess but there is nothing going to make me miss a day here and I will make sure that everything will be okay here.” Damien walked in and he was shocked to see that there was nothing there for him to see other than the usual sight.The moment everyone saw him it was like they had been waiting for him to show up and make sure that he didnt miss another day as Rosario, the environment w
Everyone in the crowd was shocked when they heard what Damien said, it was like he had said something that everyone prayed was a lie or even worse they had prayed that it would be a joke.There was muttering everywhere and the Blackwoods were the most shocked they didn't know what they were going to do.“You must be joking? This is a sick joke right, I know you are joking because there is no way you are Rosario.”Anna was looking at Damien, she didn't want to believe that there was a chance that he was really Rosario.“You might take it as a joke but that is the only truth and you are the one that doesn't want to believe it. I am Rosario and you all here have been trying effortlessly to see me while I have been in front of you the whole time.”Damien looked at the Blackwoods, he saw that their confident face turned into a face filled with horror and despair. They didnt expect Damien to even say something like that and they were waiting for Rosario to make an appearance.“I know what
Stella wanted to talk to Damien but she knew that there was no way he would take it lightly with her after she had left him for days without reply and all it was like she had left him deserted.She wanted to know what he was trying to do but she didn't want to get caught in his strange quest for revenge and his plots even though most of the time he was planning to make sure that the Blackwoods paid for what they did. It was mostly because they had harmed her.‘I want to talk to him and tell him that it would be nice if he didn't take the Blackwood family to heart like that. It was going to be the end of him and it won't be nice what they would do to him.’Stella thought that Damien had not yet noticed that she had feelings for him and she was okay to keep the love hidden like it was not important to him and it would only make his life and he would have a hard time even thinking straight.Stella had locked herself out of the world to make sure that there was no sign of her anywhere bu
Anna and her family had prepared for the party and thry knew it was going to be one of the best things that had happened to them in a while and they were going to make sure that Damien would feel loved like never before. It was all going to go according to what they had planned and nothing wrong was going to happen.“Damien would give me his role in the company like there was nothing to it, and I will make sure that when I am done with him that there is nothing left for him to do but wail about it.” Anna was not looking for a way to make sure that she did not make a mistake.It was going to be the last day they would treat Damien with kindness. It was what they thought, Damien had told them that they would get to see Rosario and they thought that it meant that the whole thing was going to be about them and there was nothing wrong with their thinking.“Honey, tonight we will be able to meet up with Rosario. The man that I have been praying to see and make things happen with him and it
Mr. Mccardy didn't know what Mr. Blackwood was talking about, it was like he had gone insane and there was not what he would expect. “What in the world are you talking about? I know you must have been taking too much to drink so please I would advise you to go back home and lay down.”Mccardy was not about to make himself a victim to one of the Blackwoods traps, it was not going to be easy but he was going to look for a way he would leave without even causing more trouble like that but Mr. Blackwood was not going anywhere.“You see, tomorrow night I will be with Damien at a big party where Rosario will be attending and then I will make sure that I tell Rosario all about what you have been doing. I will make sure that there is no way for you to remain there.”“Where is all this coming from Blackwood? I don't even want to have problems with you but you keep coming my way like there is something I did to you.”Mccardy was still trying to wrap his head around what he was saying but there
Damien knew that Anna was up to something but he was not sure what he would say she was planning to do but then when she showed up at his doorstep there was a feeling he had they would have told him everything he needed to know and it was what was really going on inside their head.‘Anna and her parents are very good at getting into people's heads but what they don't know is that I am ready for whatever it is thy want to do with me and I will always be one step ahead of them.’Damien knew that it would take Anna trying to force herself on him to make sure that the plan was in order and it happened the way he thought it would happen and there was nothing there just him trying to make sure he didn't do anything that would make her feel like she won.“I will give to them what they gave to me and I will make suresure that they don't have enough strength left in them to say anything when I am done with them and I will not even let them find a way back up I will make sure that they don’t ev
Anna had made it her mission to make sure that Damien was going to have a night with her and it was what she did. She made it to a point that he was not even able to think straight as they were having the time of their lives.In the midst of the fun Anna made Damien promise her that she would be able to meet up with Rosario soon. He also told her that there was going to be a party to celebrate their union and he was going to make sure that everyone would know that they were together and not breaking apart.‘The boy is really in love and I am about to use this to my taste. He will not be able to even get a job as a cleaner when I am done with him and there will be no one to even think of stopping me. I will make him suffer.’Anna laid with Damien knowing that it was not going to be easy in any way but she would have to deal with him.“Damien,” Anna was trying to mush him up and also make sure that everything was still going to happen the way he had promised her.“Yes dear,” Damien was
Damien was having a good time making the call with Usborne, he did not want the call to end but he knew that he was going to have to make himself prepared for the next round of shit that was going to happen.“I will talk to you soon Damien, I need to make sure that there is nothing going on behind my back here in my house.” Usborne was about to end the call and Damien was a bit relieved that he was not going to make up an excuse to try and end the call.“Okay then Mr. Usborne, I will talk to you later.” Damien said before the line went dead. Damien dropped his phone and he tried to make sure that there was nothing else he was going to be doing but trying to make sure everything was okay.‘Anna did say she would come here, I thank heavens that she didn't get here when I was on call.’ Damien knew that Anna would be there to make sure that there was nothing out of place and that she was going to make sure that she would make it look like she was doing it all out of love but her true inte
