Damson left Sasha's house angrily. He was hurt by her words but he decided to overlook it as he had an important task at hand. He was glad to find out the name of the useless man that wants to marry Sasha and he will do anything to make sure the marriage doesn't hold. He couldn't imagine her spending the rest of her life unhappy. He could see the sadness in her eyes and it made his heart ache. His mind went to the things she said to him and he wished she never opened her mouth to say such things. He expected her to be the last person to utter such words. In the end, She wasn't so different from everyone else. He was disappointed, angry and hurt. He shook his head, trying not to think about it. He brought out his phone to call Luis. "Hello, young master." Luis greeted. "Have you heard of Mr Baron with the company name Baron industries?" He asked, going straight to the point. "Yes, young master. I know him." Luis replied. "Does he have any attachment to the company? Is he a partn
Damson sighed heavily as he sat on his chair. He wasn't expecting to see Caleb in the lobby. He shook his head as he remembered all the things Caleb said to him. He chuckled to himself. Little did Caleb know that the 'poor miserable Damson' is actually the president of the company and the one calling the shots. He smiled to himself and leaned back on his chair, waiting for Luis to show up. After some minutes of waiting, Luis knocked and came in. "I'm so sorry for what happened, young master. I should have come earlier, but I was stuck in traffic." He said, bowing his head. Damson brushed him off. "It's fine. How were you able to handle Caleb?" "I deceived him by collecting the proposal from him, telling him to come back and I'll check it out and make sure to hand it over to the president." Luis replied. Damson smiled to himself. "I like that. That was very smart of you. This is just the beginning, but Caleb would regret ever messing with me by the time I'm done with him. He doesn
Damson stood in front of Baron industries, it was a moderate looking building. Although it wasn't as big as Stellarcorp. He wondered how he knew nothing about Baron industries until Luis talked about it to him. Mr Baron probably didn't want many eyes on him so he tried to be discreet.,He walked into the lobby with Luis, approaching the receptionist who later referred them to the secretary of Mr Baron. A stern looking lady Damson could tell from a glance would be difficult to talk to. He cleared his throat, so she could know he was standing right in front of her. "Can I help you?" She asked, not bothering to look up from her computer, typing with her long nails that were painted red. Damson wondered how she was able to type with it. "My name is Damson Malcom and here with me is Luis Salvor." The secretary raised an eyebrow. "And who are you here for?" She asked, looking uninterested. "We're here to see Mr Baron. We heard he's willing to help businesses in need and I'm hoping to di
"Would you like a cup of coffee, tea or water." Mr Baron asked as he sat in front of Damson and Luis. "I can ask my secretary to give you anything you want. Just mention it.""Oh, we're fine, we don't need anything." Damson said. We're not going to be here for a long time. We're busy men and we need to get back to the company as soon as possible." "Ah, I see. You want us to quickly talk about the partnership and stamp the deal. I understand, I can't wait too." Baron said, laughing loudly. Damson and Luis also laughed, but theirs was fake. "It is a pleasure having people from the biggest company in the city here in my company. It is a big deal and I can't wait to boast around to my friends. I'm very excited and honored to have you here. I wasn't expecting it. You must think highly of my company and I'm happy you do." Damson laughed. "Our president sends his apologies. He said he's sorry he didn't consider your proposals and we hope you won't take revenge and reject ours this time.
Damson groaned loudly as he loosened his tie. He was exhausted and hadn't eaten all day. He was happy he was able to deal with the situation of Mr Baron and Sasha's father. He didn't want to imagine what would have happened if had waited longer.Sasha's father wouldn't have to depend on Mr Baron before his company would come back up. He already told Luis to send him an email, telling him Stellarcorp is willing to help him get his company back on its feet. He just had to sign some documents. He imagined how happy Sasha would be when she finds out she doesn't have to marry that old bastard but his smile falters whenever he remembers the things she said to him. He had been trying to take his mind off it, but it wasn't working. He didn't expect her to confess to him out of pity, he was excited for nothing. He leaned his head on the window and his stomach growled in hunger. , "Drive me to the nearest restaurant, I'd like to get something to eat. I'm starving." Damson told Luis who wa
Over the next few days, Damson and Maria spent a lot of time together. They went out to eat together, watched movies, and attended parties. They had so much fun together. He has also been sleeping in the apartment lately. If he wasn't with Maria, he would either be in class or in the library, burying his head in his books. He also spent some time with Fred and Luke. After the incident with Mr Baron, he had expected Sasha to call him and tell him she wasn't going to get married again, but she didn't. He decided to take Maria's advice and reached out to her so they could meet and talk. He called her and texted her so many times, but she didn't respond, so he gave up. He had gone to meet Lily to ask about her. She told him Sasha took some days off school because she was sick and will resume when she gets better. Sasha could reach out to Lily, but not him. It was enough for him to get the memo. Sasha didn't rate him and truly didn't see him as someone important, even as a friend. If
Maria tried to open the door again, again, but it was locked. "Why is the door locked, Andrew? Maria asked, her voice shaking. What is going on? Did you lock the door? If you did, you have to open it right now." "Why not call your sweet boyfriend to open it for you?" He replied, laughing loudly. "Have you forgotten his name already?" "I've loved you since you started working here and all of a sudden, Damson entered into the picture and you fell for him? What about me? You pushed me aside. You run into his arms, every single day without even batting your eyes for me." "Have you forgotten everything I've done for you? I did most of you work, covered your shifts and even told the manager to increase your pay. I did everything possible, only for you to discard me like I'm some garbage." "You picked that good for nothing boy over me and slapped me because of him!" He spat out."That's not true. Sasha said, shaking her head. Damson is not my boyfriend. I promise, I'm not lying. We're ju
Damson was furious and landed a heavy punch on Andrew's face. "How dare you?" He said, punching him again. He grabbed him and was about to hit his head against the wall when the police came, stopping him from hitting him. "Stop it, kid. You might end up killing him and you wouldn't want that. We'll take it from here, leave him." Damson looked at Andrew, who had a smile on his face. He didn't feel remorseful for what he did and all he wanted to do was to beat and destroy his face, but he was lucky the police came on time.They cuffed his hands and dragged him outside, putting him inside their car. Maria was asked some questions and after that, they drove off. "Are you sure you're okay?" Damson asked Maria again."I'm fine. Jeez, how many times do you want to ask me?" She said, rolling her eyes. "How did you end up in the store?""He tricked me and I fell for it. I don't think he's mentally stable. Inside the store, I couldn't recognise him. He looked scary and different." "Why
They got to the wedding location and they walked towards the building. They got to the entrance only to realize that someone was telling people to return back home. Damson was wondering why and what was going on.People stood in batches, whispering to themselves as they all talked about what happened but Damson didn't understand what they were saying. He walked forward to meet the person that was sending people back and asked him what was happening. "The issue right now is that the family of the bride just realized that her husband paid fake money to us as her bride price. This is such a disgrace to us and because of that this wedding won't hold anymore!""Viktor thinks he can outsmart us and make us look like fools? That is very wrong! He thinks because we are illiterates and didn't go to school he can play on our intelligence? He is very wrong." "We're no longer giving him a chance to get married to our family! He is a very bad person and can't be trusted. All he would do is brin
Days passed by in a blur and Damson was starting to get used to living in the Wilson's house. Laura's cousin still made things difficult for him while Mrs Wilson was always oblivious to things happening around her.Laura's cousin used her as her puppet to make life unbearable for Damson but she wasn't smart enough to even realize that. She was really that oblivious. Things became very awkward between Damson and Laura after what happened to her in her professor's office. After she had told Damson to follow her to the student union building to report the professor, she went back to grab her bag from the sculpture room. She had told Damson to leave her alone and go but he didn't. She was injured and he just couldn't leave her alone. They were walking home together when all of a sudden, she sat on the floor and started to cry. Everything that happened and the pain she was feeling from her entire body was too much that she started to cry. It took Damson by surprise and after watching he
Laura looked at the professor to see his eyes widen with shock and surprise. She wasted no time and decided to run for the door but luck wasn't on her side. The professor was faster than her and pulled her to the floor with her hair."You bitch!" He snarled as he sat on top of her. "You think you can try to escape from me? Never! Not under my watch" Laura screamed in fear as she saw the look on the professor's face. He looked so feral and scary. "Somebody help me. Please help me!" She screamed out loudly. The professor hit her mouth to keep her from shouting but she fought back and continued to scream.She couldn't scream before because even if she had, nobody would be able to save her because the door was already locked automatically from inside. She had been saving her strength from when she would need it. The professor had forgotten that she had actually opened the door and anybody could walk in. He was focused mainly on the fact that he had caught her and could have her to hims
"Just as I said earlier, I never do this without consent from the other party. I always told the girls to go and think about it before I decide to have sex with them. I'm a man of principles and my girls know that." "Both parties would enjoy themselves and in the end, we get what we wanted. They get really good grades while I get my own satisfaction. It's a win-win situation." "I have had my eyes on you for some time now but you've been that little miss perfect. You also seemed to think that you'll never be at my mercy but look at you now, shaking and whimpering. Why did you have to start what you couldn't finish?" "I am so going to deal with you and ruin you beyond recognition, just like I did for the phone. You will not be able to tell anyone about it because you will be traumatized. You will end up regretting why you didn't just agree to the options that I had laid out for you." The professor said unbuttoning his shirt. Laura's eyes widened as she realized what the professor w
“You need to open the door and let me leave immediately." Laura replied, fear evident in her eyes. She didn't know how the professor was able to lock the door automatically and she didn't see it coming.The professor walked up to her and backed her up against the wall. "I was going to let you leave with your two legs out of my office but it's not looking like it anymore. I gave you a chance to make a decision without forcing you but all I got in return was a recording from you. You even went as far as threatening me and saying that you will testify against me." "You shouldn't have said those things to me when you're still in my den! You should have just walked out and not say anything and I wouldn't have known that you recorded me but you just proved that you're not so smart." "It didn't have to end this way but you asked for it. Now hand over your phone to me right now!" The professor barked and Laura shook her head. "No, I'm not giving you my phone. Let me out of your office im
"I've been looking forward to this day for a very long time and I couldn't be any more glad that it's here. I waited for the day when you'll need my help and you'll walk with yiur two legs into my office.""You see, you couldn't fall into my trap because you took my course seriously and there was never a chance to fail you but right now, you have messed up. You don't have my attendance and my assignment , so what are you going to do now?" He asked, rubbing her arms. "Please sir, stop this." Laura muttered, clenching her fist together. She was disgusted and irritated by the professor's behavior but she knew better than to lash out at him if she didn't want to be in more trouble. The professor chuckled, raising his hands up. "Okay, fine. The ball is in your court. What would your choice be? You can easily just walk out of here if you want, i won't stop you but the problem is, you will have to fail my course." "If you do as I just say, inside this room with nobody finding out, you'll
“What type of hate do you have towards me and my family that you had to play such an expensive joke." Damson listened to what Laura had to say and he was able to put two and two together. She had no idea about what her father was doing. Of course, no one knew who he was. In his school, nobody knows that he's the president of Stellarcorp but even after she found out about that, her dad was supposed to explain to her that it wasn't true and that he was just hiding his true self from others but he didn't. He also didn't think that Laura knew about the fact that he had to sign some documents concerning the marriage with him. She's just a pawn that her father is using. She wasn't genuinely interested in the marriage after finding out from his school that he was nothing but her father didn't listen to her."I know that you'll have nothing to say because you have been caught in the act. If not for the fact that my father is already obsessed with this whole thing and I really don't have an
"I don't understand you. What do you mean by the sculpture is broken?" Damson asked, confusion etched on his face. CAre you seriously trying to play dumb? This sculpture wasn't like this when I saw it this morning. It was intact! There was nothing wrong with it but all of a sudden it's broken. How do you explain that? What did you do?" Laura asked again, yelling. "Hey, you seriously need to calm down because I have no idea about what you're talking about. This sculpture was given to me this morning by your mum and all I did was just put it in my bag. I really don't know how it was broken." Damson explained. "Oh, so now you're trying to tell me that my mum was the one that broke it? Is that what you're trying to tell me?" Damson let out a sigh. "No, I'm not saying that. I didn't even check it when it was given to me. Who knows if there had been an issue with it before then but one thing I know for sure is that I didn't break it." "Your mum said it was quite important to you so wh
Mrs Wilson was about to call a maid to quickly get the sculpture to Laura's school but she stopped her and told her to send Damson instead. That he should be able to do things like this. If there weren't any maids around, he would have to go. She also reminded her not to forget that they were married. Mrs Wilson agreed to her idea and that's how she ended up telling Damson to take the sculpture to her school. Damson called Viktor and told him to come and pick him up because he still wasn't familiar with the roads that led to the school from the Wilson's house. He used his phone and waited till Viktor arrived. Then he told him to drive him to his school. He had totally forgotten about Laura's sculpture that was in his bag. He didn't remember that he had to drop it off for her. Damson got to his school and sorted out his courses. He also spent time with his roommates after because they went together from office to office to do it together. Back in Laura's school. It was time for
