DAMIEN’S POV

As my eyes swept across the beautifully decorated hall, I knew there was nothing that could wipe the smile off my mother’s face tonight.

Everything had gone exactly the way she wanted.

The room was filled with the country’s elite. They surrounded her, congratulating her, praising the event's success, and celebrating another year of her life.

My mother always attracted people like that.

Born to wealthy parents, my mother had grown up with a strong appetite for success. She

  • I’m Yours, Mr. Blackwood   DON’T MESS WITH IVY HAYES.

    IVY’S POVMrs. Sinclair’s glare snapped toward him.“Oh, Elizabeth.” She let out a mocking sigh. “I can’t believe you’re standing here exchanging words with a nanny and a bodyguard.”Her lips curled with disdain.“I’m done talking to you lowlifes. Get out of my house. And as for Damien, I’ll make sure he rots in jail for murder.”“I was hoping it wouldn’t come to this.” I let out a frustrated sigh before meeting her eyes. “Mrs. Sinclair, what do you think the whole world will do if they ever find out the truth about Serena’s death?”It was as if all the life drained from her face.She stared at me, her lips parting as she struggled to catch her breath.“Ivy…” Samuel muttered beside me, his voice edged with confusion. “What are you doing?”I had only told him I was coming here to beg her. I hadn’t told him the second part of my plan.“What. Are. You. Talking. About?” Mrs. Sinclair demanded, each word strained.I knew one of the reasons she was so shocked was because she had never imagi

  • I’m Yours, Mr. Blackwood   A NECESSARY ACTION

    IVY’S POV“Mama, where is Dada?”Ava’s voice pulled me from my thoughts, and the curiosity in her eyes nearly broke my heart.It had been two days since Damien was arrested, and everyone had been working tirelessly to get him out.I crouched in front of her and pressed a kiss to the top of her head.“Daddy will be back soon, sweetheart. He went away on a business trip.”“Are you sure?”“Yes, I’m sure. You’ll see him soon,” I promised.Only then did she nod in satisfaction. I kissed her forehead again before handing her over to her nanny. “Please take care of her. I’ll be back soon.”“Okay, ma’am,” she replied and then she took Ava back inside the house.I kept waving at her until they disappeared from view up the stairs before I turned to Samuel.“Let’s go.”“Are you sure you want to do this, Miss Ivy?” he asked as he opened the car door for me. “I’m not sure my boss would be happy if he hears this.”I knew Damien would be furious if he found out about this but I had no choice.“This

  • I’m Yours, Mr. Blackwood   YOU ARE UNDER ARREST.

    IVY’S POVMrs. Miller didn’t have many friends or relatives.It was just me, Damien, and a handful of people gathered beneath the gray afternoon sky.And even most of them looked like they would rather be somewhere else.It broke my heart to think that despite how kind and loving Mrs. Miller had been, only a few people thought she was worth celebrating.I wiped the tears from my cheeks and glanced at Damien, who stood beside me in complete silence.He had barely spoken since the incident yesterday, and I knew it was because he blamed himself for everything that had happened.After the priest finally finished the prayers, the pallbearers slowly carried the coffins toward their graves.I reached for Damien’s hand and intertwined our fingers.“You know you had nothing to do with this, Damien. Stop beating yourself up over it.”“No.” He shook his head quickly. “I had everything to do with this. I’m the reason this family doesn’t exist anymore.”I tightened my grip on his hand.“No, you’re

  • I’m Yours, Mr. Blackwood   GUESS WHO IS DEAD.

    DAMIEN’S POVRage simmered through my veins, the same reaction that always came whenever my eyes landed on any member of the Sinclair family.“Edward Sinclair,” I said coldly. “I don’t remember inviting you to this event.”He stopped in front of me with a taunting smile on his face. “Is it such a terrible thing for a father to want to congratulate his own son-in-law on his engagement?”My brows lifted as I finally understood why he had come.“I don’t know if our last encounter gave you some form of brain damage, but let me remind you of something,” I said, stepping closer to him. “Your daughter is dead, Edward, which means I am no longer your son-in-law.”His smile disappeared at the bluntness of my words, and satisfaction immediately settled in my chest.“I think you’ve also forgotten that I told you I no longer want to see you anywhere near my family, so unless you have suddenly developed a death wish, I suggest you leave before I have security escort you out.”“What are you plannin

  • I’m Yours, Mr. Blackwood   GUESS WHO IS HERE.

    DAMIEN’S POVI couldn’t stop the wide smile that attacked my lips at the sight of Ivy and my mother.My mother seemed even more excited than Ivy as she gushed over her ring.This was the only good thing that had come from the incident with Greta. My mother had finally warmed up to Ivy.“Mr. Blackwood.”I tore my gaze away from Ivy and turned toward the direction of my name, letting my poker face replace the smile that had been on my lips.My nostrils flared when I saw Ethan Carter walking toward me with Clara Vance.I had never been a fan of the Vance family, and after witnessing their daughter’s behavior today, I could finally understand why.Still, Clara didn’t infuriate me nearly as much as Ethan did, and that was because he was Ivy’s ex.The same man who had treated her like she was worthless despite never being worthy of her in the first place.“Please, Mr. Blackwood!” Ethan pleaded as he dropped to his knees in front of me. “I made a terrible mistake. Please don’t fire me. I des

  • I’m Yours, Mr. Blackwood   NOT MY NIECE BUT MY WIFE

    IVY’S POVThere were only two times I had ever seen Damien in the kind of furious state he was currently in.The first was when Ava had been poisoned, and the second was when he had caught me in the master bedroom on the first day I started working in his house.Translation: Ethan and Clara were dead meat.“Didn’t you hear me?” he thundered, making me jerk. “I asked what is going on here, and I want an explanation right now.”“Oh, Mr. Blackwood, thank God you’re here,” Clara breathed, clasping her trembling hands together.I had to admit that it was amusing to see her like this because I had always believed Clara wasn’t scared of anyone.“Mr. Blackwood, this is nothing worth your time. It’s just this bitch here—” Ethan began, pointing accusingly at me.But he never got to finish.The moment the insult left his mouth, Samuel stepped forward, caught his pointing finger, and twisted it sharply.“Owww!” Ethan shrieked, his knees buckling as Samuel twisted his hand before shoving him hard
