Sophia's POV

He didn't say anything, he kept on looking at me.

"What did you do, exactly?" I asked again, raising my eyebrow.

The waitress came back with our food before he could even get a word out. She set the plates down in front of us, mine being a light meal as I had requested. His was seafood, of course.

Damien nodded to her, then leaned over to me. "Eat, Sophia. Don't let it get cold."

I brought my fork to my lips slowly, interest piqued within me. "You can't just say something like that, and then just expect me to sit down and eat like nothing's occurred."

He smiled, cutting his shrimp. "Okay, but you have to promise me something first."

"What is it?"

"What I'm about to tell you, I want you to keep it to yourself. At least thirty-six hours."

I narrowed my eyes. "Thirty-six hours? Why don't you just say a day or two?"

"Because I've been doing some calculations," he said, rapping his head. "I'd like you to keep this from Serena until after that period. No mention of it to her."

  • Chasing Back The Woman He Destroyed   Chapter 117

    Serena's POV“There’s plenty of wrong ways,” he said. “Manipulation, betrayal, power plays without purpose. But playing smart, protecting your image, choosing your battles, that’s not dirty. That’s necessary.”I looked back at him, eyes narrowed. “Is that what Pristine is doing?” I asked. “Playing politics?”Damien leaned sideways, considering the question. "Her father's a politician. It's only natural she learned how to play the game. And she plays well.""So she's what, playing me?"He nodded his head. "Pristine doesn't hate you, Serena. She's just ruthless when she wants something."That made me take note. I sat back up. "And what does she want?"Damien hesitated.Then he shrugged. "I'm not really sure."I browed at him. "You've just met her, a week? Two weeks? And you already know that she's ruthless and politically calculating?"He raised an eyebrow. "I observe well."I leaned back. "So you've been spending time with her a lot, then?"His expression didn't shift. "I wouldn't say

  • Chasing Back The Woman He Destroyed   Chapter 116

    Serena's POVHe wore a navy-blue shirt, sleeves rolled up, with a look that screamed casual arrogance. His eyes scanned the room and landed straight on me.I stiffened.Sophia, sensing the tension, turned and saw him too.The agent was still talking to her, unaware of the shift in the room. The buyer had stood and extended a hand toward Damien, who had now come into the room as well. But none of that mattered.My focus was glued to Kyle.He looked at me like I was a puzzle he couldn’t solve, and it irritated the hell out of me.“Serena,” he said, walking toward me with an easy smile like he hadn’t caused chaos just days ago. "Good to see you."I didn’t reply.I crossed my arms and stared at him with a neutral expression, keeping all the bitterness bottled inside.“I came with the agent,” he said, gesturing toward the man who was now gathering his things. “Thought I’d help make sure everything went smoothly.”“Everything went fine,” Sophia said before I could respond. Her voice was cal

  • Chasing Back The Woman He Destroyed   Chapter 115

    Serena's POVSophia opened her mouth to speak, but I cut her off immediately. “Please don’t talk about Alexander.”She blinked. “I wasn’t going to. I was actually going to ask if we’re going to throw a party for our birthday.”I paused. “Oh. Right. Our birthday is coming up.”She smiled. “Exactly. Why not do something fun for once? No drama. No exes. Just music, cake, and a bunch of people pretending we’re normal.”I turned to Damien. “Can we throw a party?”He finally looked up from his plate. “Of course. We should.”“Where, though?” I asked. “This place kind of feels quiet.”He wiped his mouth with a napkin. “I have another apartment in the city. More open space, a rooftop, great view. We could use it.”Sophia grinned. “That sounds perfect.”Before I could reply, there was a knock on the front door.Damien stood. “I’ll check it out.”As he walked out, my heart jumped a little. I bit my lower lip, suddenly nervous. What if it was Kyle?I turned to Sophia. “Do you think it’s him?”She

  • Chasing Back The Woman He Destroyed   Chapter 114

    Serena's POVDamien’s phone started ringing. He stood up and glanced at the screen.“Excuse me,” he said quickly, stepping out of the room to take the call.As soon as he closed the door, Sophia approached me. Her voice was cheerful, but sarcastic. "You know, in spite of all the drama, Kyle still went out and bought that house for me."I rolled my eyes. "Of course he did. The man is stubborn. I'm starting to think that eliminating Kyle might be harder than I thought."Sophia leaned back on the couch, her head on the armrest. "He's obsessed with you.""I know," I growled, shaking my head. "But I can just wait and get a face to be answered with when he hears that voice note Alexander sent me."Sophia jumped up, eyes wide. "You're really going to play that for him?"I nodded. "Yeah. Let him hear what he really sounds like."Sophia was about to reply when the door opened again. Damien walked back in, looking calm but focused.“That was the PA to the mafia don,” he said, sitting down besid

  • Chasing Back The Woman He Destroyed   Chapter 113

    Serena's POVDamien set his mug down on the table beside him, then looked straight at me. “Oh, by the way,” he said casually, “Kyle called me. About five minutes ago.”I blinked. “Really? What did he want?” I had thought Kyle would just stay off my shadow till I was ready to face him, but the dude wouldn't back down.“He asked if I knew where you were," Damien said, calmly.“And you told him?” I asked, raising a brow, wishing Damien would say he didn't tell him anything, but I was disappointed.He nodded. “Yeah. I said you and Sophia were here with me.”I shrugged, leaning against the wall. “Well, it’s better he heard it from you than from me. He probably would’ve taken it personally if I said it.”“He already took it personally,” Damien said, half-smiling. “But he didn’t argue. Just said ‘okay’ and moved on.”I scoffed. “Sounds like him. I just hope he doesn't come running here this morning. I'm not in the mood to talk to him."Damien wasn’t done, though. “He also mentioned he needs

  • Chasing Back The Woman He Destroyed   Chapter 112

    Serena's POV“Do you think Kyle would pull out of giving me the house because of the um, misunderstanding between you guys?”I scoffed. “Misunderstanding? That’s what we’re calling it now?”She sat up against the headboard. “Well, yeah. I mean, you guys didn’t exactly have a war. Just tension.”I gave her a look. “Did Kyle bribe you with that Barbie mansion too? Because you’re sounding awfully soft about him.”She burst into laughter. “Oh my God, no! But what do you want me to call it? An understanding?”I snorted. “Honestly, that would be more accurate at this point.”She gave me a playful smirk. “Face it, you’re mad because he still has that hold on you.”I rolled my eyes. “I’m mad because he thinks he can own me like a fucking property.Sophia laughed again, kicking the blanket off. “Wow, dramatic much?”“You’re one to talk,” I said. “Miss ‘Barbie Mansion is a sign of love.’”She gasped. “I never said that!”“You implied it.”“I did not!”“Gold digger,” I muttered under my breath w
