"Damian?" Davina's face lit up with a warm smile as Damian arrived to pick her up from work."I heard you finished early today," Damian remarked, his arms outstretched, ready to envelop Davina in a loving embrace.Without care for their surroundings—still in the vicinity of the law firm—Davina eagerly rushed into Damian's waiting arms, savoring the sweetness of her husband's affection."You did well today, my wife.” Damian gently ran his hand through Davina's hair, offering comfort and solace."Has it been hectic at the office?" Davina inquired, concern lacing her voice."Some of my tasks were completed ahead of schedule today," Damian explained, a glimmer of satisfaction evident in his eyes.With Davina's hand, Damian guided her towards the awaiting car. Tonight, he had instructed his driver to take the afternoon off, opting to drive himself instead, allowing for an added layer of intimacy and quality time with his beloved wife."What's gotten into you, picking me up yourself today?"
Damian's days, he had returned to the monotonous office routine, filled with endless paperwork and meetings. As he sat at his desk, immersed in his tasks, he was suddenly interrupted by the familiar tinkling sound of his cell phone, signaling an incoming message. Curiosity sparked within him as he picked up the device, revealing a message that filled him with a sense of accomplishment - a finished article.With a satisfied smile, Damian began to read the written piece from beginning to end, ensuring that it met his high standards before it was released to the public. As he absorbed the words, he couldn't help but feel a surge of pride in his work. Once satisfied and confident in its quality, Damian wasted no time sending a reply to the media he was collaborating with, granting his approval for the article's release.Putting the phone down on the table, Damian redirected his attention to the document sprawled before him on the desk. Then, he remembered the pressing matter he needed to
Davina, typically not one to indulge in social media, remained unaware of the cyber buzz surrounding her and Damian's public display of intimacy. Instead, she was lost in a daydream while sitting in a cozy café that afternoon.Recent events left Davina feeling melancholy, having just experienced a rare loss in a case after an impressive two-year winning streak. Despite knowing that victories and defeats were part of a lawyer's journey, Davina couldn't help but feel disheartened. She thought she hadn't been able to fight for her client's rights as much as she had hoped.Davina had been lost in thought for the past half-hour, absentmindedly gazing out the café window. Unbeknownst to her, she had long surpassed her designated break time, immersing herself in her world.Davina's daydream abruptly stopped when a young girl approached her with an air of excitement. "Are you Claire, the lawyer for WW Technology? Damian's wife?" the girl asked, her eyes wide with anticipation.The stranger's
Damian, Zack, and Nick sat in the office room, engaging in an intense discussion about Marcel's family company. Damian's revelation about the company's debt left Damian quite surprised. The room was filled with a tense atmosphere, with cans of soda scattered across the table, serving as their source of refreshment during these small meetings. Papers were strewn across the long table, indicating that they would spend the night searching for a solution.Having recently met with the struggling company, Zack shared his findings with the others. "Yes, even their company's turnover hasn't been good these past few years. After a few conversations with them, they were quite ignorant about offering such a high price. They dared to do that knowing that the company that wants to acquire them is the Wilson family company."Damian turned to Zack and Nick, seeking their opinions on the matter. "What do you think?" he asked, his voice tinged with genuine curiosity."I don't think they deserve the hi
"The acquisition was a resounding success!"Zack, Nick, and Damian exclaimed joyously, their countless hours of hard work finally paying off in spades. Damian, the mastermind behind it all, couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction as he watched his meticulously crafted plans unfold flawlessly. With each passing milestone, his anticipation for the culmination of his retribution mission grew stronger.Realizing he no longer had a role in the company, Zack implored Damian without wasting another moment, "Can I have my car now?"Damian looked at Zack, bemused by his eagerness. "Sure, you can come to my house after work," Damian acquiesced, his voice laced with disbelief at Zack's unbridled enthusiasm.Zack's face lit up with sheer happiness, his excitement bubbling over as he and Damian exchanged a celebratory high-five. The successful partnership brought Zack immense joy and a hefty payment in the form of a luxury car."Anyway, I must be off. I still have some business matters to a
"What?" The surprise on Nick's face was impossible to conceal as Damian presented his preposterous question.In Nick's opinion, Damian's inquiry was inappropriate and laced with complexity, given Damian's current status. As Davina's legally married husband and her first love, Damian occupied a unique position in their relationship. There was no space for Nick to enter the equation.At the very least, if Damian reciprocated Davina's feelings, everything would fall into place perfectly. Nick couldn't comprehend why, after thirteen years, Damian wanted him to fight for his first love.Leaning back in his chair, Damian let out a deep sigh before continuing. "Haven't you noticed the situations I've been orchestrating lately, where the two of you are frequently alone?" His question hung in the air, waiting for a response from Nick.Silence filled the room, with Nick offering no indication of answering. Damian's voice pierced the stillness once more. "If you cannot grasp the significance of
A look of bewilderment crossed Damian's face as he struggled to comprehend the accusation being hurled at him. "I lied to you? What are you talking about?" he questioned, his tone laced with confusion.Yet, beneath his façade of innocence, an undercurrent of unease began to ripple through him. He was ill-prepared for the bombshell Davina had just dropped, unaware of the tangled web of deceit woven into their relationship.Davina's question hung in the air, her voice tinged with a mixture of frustration and desperation. She had carried the weight of uncertainty for far too long, unable to bear the burden of Damian's lies any further."Why did you lie to me, Damian? What exactly is your relationship with Maggie?" The words spilled forth, unfiltered and raw, peeling back the layers of deceit that had obscured her perception of their once-tight bond.The mention of Maggie's name elicited a jolt of panic within Damian, his skin prickling with goosebumps. He had not anticipated this revelat
Davina stood at a distance, her gaze fixed on the intriguing scenario unfolding before her. From her vantage point, she observed Maggie, Damian's enigmatic companion, seamlessly maneuvering in and out of the sleek vehicle parked elegantly on the side of the road. It all started innocently as Davina visited a quaint cafe owned by one of her esteemed clients.In a twist of fate, just as Davina was making her way towards the cozy establishment, her attention was inexplicably drawn to the sight of Damian's driver, stationed vigilantly in front of the luxurious car. A sense of curiosity crept over her, guiding her to the edge of the expansive window that separated her from Damian.With her heart pounding in anticipation, Davina observed Maggie, clad in an aura of mystery, effortlessly enter and emerge from the vehicle, each time clutching a brown envelope. The contents of that envelope remained an enigma to Davina, fueling her intrigue and prompting her to intensify her surveillance. As sh
