Sophia's POV “Hello, Claire,” I said while walking out of the mansion to take the call, “Hi best friend, how have you been?” She asked, sounding hyperactive. “I'm okay, I haven't heard from you in a long time.” I said, my voice calm and hoarse, “Yeah, I'm in Huston now, work has been taking me places girlll!!” She said, while she burst into a loud laughter from her end. I chuckled slightly, “How's work going? I've missed you.” I said, smiling while I stared at the sky, “I will be back soon I promise and work is going well.” She said while sounding like she was stretching, then she spoke again, “How's Damian and Hillary your contract boyfriend?” She said, we both laughed over the phone, then I remembered what had happened between Hillary and I, my expression changed, I frowned, my heart raced faster with pain. “Something happened and I'm going to tell you when you're back, work made you not have time for me anymore, it's sad.” I said, my voice laced with sadness. “Why can't you tell m

Sophia's POV I turned to each side of the bed, while I robbed my eyes. It was morning, my head was banging, and I had a headache. I slowly sat up on the bed, My gaze met with the glass of water, a small tray with a card, that should be a pain reliever. I quietly brought my legs out of the duvet to the floor, “Olivia Hart is such a kind soul.” I said while walking over the table and sitting on the chair, I stole a quick glance of myself in the mirror, I looked pale and tired. My hand reached for the glass cup of water, I gulped down some while I had to take a tablet of the pain reliever. I quickly went into the bathroom, washed my face, took my toothbrush and applied the toothpaste on it so I could brush my teeth. I looked at myself in the bathroom mirror while I slowly took the brush into my mouth, my mind kept going to why Hillary would do what he did to me yesterday. I needed to speak with Claire who I haven't heard from in a long while. I dropped the toothbrush and decided to wal

Author's POV “You never asked how I've been doing since I was at Damian's Mansion,” Sophia said, giving him a side glance, while she spoke to him, her voice soft, but blunt. They both sat on the cushions in his living room, he didn't say a word to her after she had spoken, he kept his gaze fixed on his laptop while he punched its keyboard. He was busy with the contract file she had brought to him, she stared at him with pain in her eyes, her heart bleeding from the way he hurt her feelings. “We will be having dinner with De’ Wills company's CEO by next week, get prepared, and remember the contract.” He said, nonchalantly his gaze still fixed on his laptop, she clenched her fist, boiling with anger.“The contract, I remember, but you? You piss me off!” She spoke, standing to her feet in anger and rage, she wanted to spill it to his face, she glared at him, while he stared at her in shock, her confidence and boldness had shocked him. “Oh you irk me! You think you can just go about usin

Sophia's POV I sat on the bed after taking my shower and changing into my nightwear. I had eaten already, Karissa had brought my dinner to the room. Slowly, I lay back against the pillow, my gaze fixed on the POP ceiling. A soft smile tugged at my lips as memories of what happened at the pool replayed in my mind. I wondered why Damian acted sweet and calm all through the evening, then my phone began to ring. I jerked up, I wasn't expecting anyone, it stared at the screen when I picked the phone. It was Hillary. I checked the time on the wall clock in the room, it was past 10pm already. I picked the call on the second ring, “You must be having fun in the arms of that Bastard,” He said, his voice cold and bitter, filled with so much disdain. My heart began to beat faster, I could feel anger inside of me, why was he cursing? I thought to myself, “Is there anything you want me to do?” I asked, going straight to the point while I glared at the wall in anger and displeased. He let out a s

Sophia's POV I walked through the mansion backdoor to the swimming pool, it was a serene stretch of sapphire water, perfectly still beneath the evening sky. Damian was already in the pool, swimming like he had competition to win. I gently pulled off the towel wrapped around my waist, revealing my bikini underneath. I placed the towel on the poolside lounger, I turned my gaze back to the water, I caught Damian staring and he quickly averted his gaze, saying nothing. I walked slowly to the edge of the pool and quietly dipped my legs into the cool, still water.“You finally came down,” He said, while he lowered himself into the pool again, I gently nodded, then he swam under the pool till he got to where I was, “I know you can swim Elena.” He with a small smile drawn across his lips, then he spoke again. “Let's swim, do you want to make it a competition?” I stared at him, then I chuckled. “What if I got PTSD?” I asked with a smirk on my lips, “But your legs are in the pool.” He said, hi

Sophia's POV It was noon. I was getting bored in the mansion. I had not seen Damian since he stepped into the house, when he had come back while I was at the dinning, his face was gloomy. “Did his father annoy him again?” I said to myself as I stared outside the windows looking at the pool just behind the mansion. Damian's Mansion was a replica of his father's mansion. Just then my phone beeped. It was a message from an unknown number, “You can go study and get the contract file.” I read, I stared at each word line by line. I gently placed the phone into my pocket while I walked over to the room door, I quietly turned the knob of the door and stepped out shutting the door behind. I froze when I had seen Marcus at the stairs, he stood there as if he was watching. He quietly nodded his head, urging me to move, I walked over to the last door along the passage.I walked inside the office after I had succeeded in opening the door, I quickly got to the desk, I pulled the drawer open, “Shit
