"I'm sorry ma'am but we can't help you." The receptionist said, still smiling at Sasha. "I understand, but this is quite important to me and I'm sure you can help. Please I just need to confirm something." "We're not the right people to meet. You need to contact the customer service for any problems you might have. Our hands are tied." "Dammit!" Sasha yelled, hitting her hands on the counter. "I just need to check put something. It wouldn't take time, just take me straight to the technical room. Is that too much to ask for?" The receptionist looked at Sasha like she was crazy but decided to not say anything. "I'm sorry ma'am. You can reach out to the customer service about your claims." She said, handing her a card. Sasha glared at the receptionist as she collected the card and squeezed it in her hands. She knew what would happen if she called the customer care. They'd take forever to respond to her and when they do, they would tell her there was nothing they can do. She turned
The phone stopped ringing and Sasha grabbed Damson again to give him a kiss, but the phone rang again, making them stop. Sasha huffed in annoyance, all she wanted was to feel Damson's lips on hers. "Sorry. I need to see who's calling." Damson said, looking at his phone to see that Maria was calling. "Why is she calling this late?" He wondered. He answered the call and Maria's voice filled his ears. "Damson, where are you? I need…you here." She cried out, her voice breaking. "What's going on? What happened? Talk to me."You…need…the…hospital. She replied. "I don't understand, you need to speak clearly." "Just come to the hospital, please!" She said, before hanging up. Damson was worried, he looked at the time to see it was midnight. He didn't know why Maria had called but it sounded really urgent. He stood up and quickly put on his clothes. His friend needed him and he had to show up. "What's going on? Where are you going? Does it have to do with the call you just picked?" Sa
Anne glared at Damson. "You need to back off. You're not part of our family and you have no right to decide on anything concerning us.""I've heard that so many times. Try to say something else." Damson said, rolling his eyes. "We're talking about something else here, stop trying to change the subject." "I have no idea what you're talking about and I'm not trying to change anything. I'm not begging you to believe me but I know nothing about it." "Then we'd confirm." Maria said, crossing her arms. "To make sure you know nothing about it and you're telling the truth, we'd check the CCTV footage." "That's ridiculous!" Anne yelled. "We're family, and you can't just see me as a suspect. You should believe my words." "I'm going to stand here and watch you repeat the same thing over and over. We're checking the footage and we will see what you have done." Maria said, hitting her shoulder with Anne's as she walked up to the nurse at the reception. "My mum's machines were unplugged and I
"You really think you have a say here?" Maria chuckled. "All you keep doing is showing signs that you're really involved in what happened. Your hands aren't clean.""I don't care what you think, but I'm not going anywhere. The next line of action is to find a way to figure out mum's funeral, not this rubbish you're doing. Mum was already as good as dead before and what happened was for the best." Maria's sister said, smiling smugly. "While you go ahead to figure out who had done this, I'll ask the nurses about the charity organization, to see if they can pay for the cremation and all the necessary payments. They should be able to do that, don't you think?"Maria clenched her fist tightly, trying to control her anger. She was angry her sister was not bothered about everything which made her want to know who had unplugged the machines more. She would make sure she faces the consequences of her actions. Her sister already proved that she didn't care about family, and she would also sho
Damson watched as Luis entered the study confidently, like he did nothing wrong and had nothing to be afraid of. "He might not have done anything wrong." Damson thought to himself. If he had, he wouldn't walk in here like he's innocent and he won't also be able to look me in the eyes." "Hm, Luis. What are you hiding from me?" Damson wondered as he looked at him. "You called for me, young master." Luis said, clearing his throat. "I have a lot to do at the office, but I rushed down there as soon as I got your call. Hope everything is okay?" "Yes, Luis. Everything is fine. I know you've been busy and I'm sorry for calling you down here, suddenly." "How long have you worked for my father?" Damson asked, folding his hands. "Was it before I was born, or after?" "I've been loyal to your father ever since he became the heir to Stellarcorp, which was around the same time he got married to your mum, so yes, it was before you were born, young master." Luis replied. "So, you're saying t
"May I ask why you want to know, young master?" Luis asked, rubbing his neck nervously. He knew something was wrong right from when Damson had asked when he started working for his father. It wasn't like Damson to ask questions concerning him. He doesn't even care. "I need to know why you were in the hospital, Luis." Damson said again, glaring at him. "I'm asking the questions here, not you and I need answers." "There are some things I'd like to keep private, young master but I promise you, I wasn't in the hospital for any bad thing. If you think I had a hand in Maria's mum's death, I'm afraid you're wrong." "When you asked me to pay for her treatment, I didn't even see her, I didn't enter her room. Walking past her room on Thursday was just a coincidence and to be honest I didn't know she was in there."Damson chuckled. "I'm not asking you for stories or explanations, Luis. All I want is just a simple and straightforward answer. You're making all of this complicated. We're both b
Austin was more of a brother to Damson, he saw him as someone he could tell anything and everything. He knew how much Damson struggled after he left the orphanage and how hard he worked to get into the university. Things were different for Austin. He found loving parents who took him in and took care of him. He didn't struggle or have to live from hand to mouth, his Foster parents were comfortable enough. When Damson found out life was much easier for Austin, he got jealous and wished he could be in his position, but it didn't last. He accepted his fate to be a poor, miserable and unlucky person and was happy for his friend. They continued to communicate with each other when they both got to separate universities but it was always hard because Damson was always unavailable. He was busy juggling different part time jobs and couldn't return most of Austin calls, but Austin understood. When Damson started dating Mia, Austin was the first person he told. He was so excited and was gri
Mia's parents didn't take it lightly with her after they found out she lied about her diagnosis, her father was disappointed in her and hadn't spoken to her since then. He also blocked her cards, so she could learn a lesson. Mia was furious with Damson and thought of ways she could get back at him but she came up with nothing. She wasn't satisfied and really wanted to bring Damson down for what he did. She lost a lot trying to get the doctor to give her a fake diagnosis and Damson ruined it. He wasn't going to go scott free. She didn't disappear because she was ashamed of what she did at the hospital, but instead, she decided to take some steps herself. She started to stalk Damson, she was desperate to find something to use against him. What she wants is for him to suffer and she'd do anything to make sure it happened. She could have easily paid private investigators to keep tabs on him, but she had no money to pay them, thanks to Damson. She started to follow him around, and on
