"And it's because of the way you run your mouth like tap water made you look ugly more than a gorilla." She insulted before the men could descend on her.
*********
But she was able to run out before they could get to her side.
"F*ck! Those stupid people that Sir Damien called business partners." She groaned and removed her heels to start walking on barefoot.
She almost at her hotel room when she heard two men speaking.
"Okay, are you sure the goods are going to work? What if he check them before leaving?" One of the men said while Kimberly hid herself well from them and continued to hear their conversation.
Someone she was engrossed and she sensed that they must be talking about her boss. And it was finally confirmed when she heard one of them say,
"Damien can't check those goods. We will have to do our best for him not to open it. Anyways, when you guys are sharing the goods, the one with cocaines is at the left.
Be the first to choose the one at the right, okay? And you're going to pay me a huge amount of money for it. I don't know your hatred towards him but I'm happy to be part of this."
"That's okay for now. Who knows someone might hear us. I actually want his business down completely but slowly. He's kind of smart and might play tricks." The man who seem to be the Canadian boss Damien had been waiting for.
"Yeah, let's go back to the meeting. I'm sure he must be dying to see me." The boss laughed and they both walked away.
Kimberly appeared instantly and was about to walk away too but she was called back by them.
She flinched but turned anyway.
"Yes, how may I help you?" She tried not to stammer.
"Uhm, are you one of the staffs here?" One of them asked as he flashed his set of teeth to her.
"No, I'm not. I came with someone for business." She answered.
"Ohh! I mistook you for a staff here. Bye. You look beautiful too. Do you mind if I have your number?"
'F*ck! What's wrong with this man?' She said to herself.
"No! I need to go. My boss need me." She quickly turned to leave.
Kimberly got to her room and sat down on the bed without hesitating.
She looked around with a smile but it ended with a scream when she saw Damien standing in between the curtains.
"What the hell are you doing in my room....Sir Damien?" She shrieked at his sight.
What's he thinking? Did he enter the room by mistake or what? That's not it. His room was different from hers.
Damien kept quiet and sat down on the sofa with his legs crossed.
"You shouldn't be in my room sir." Kimberly tried to gain his attention again but he wasn't looking. She continued, "Me and you in the same room is really awkward." She added.
"Are you afraid that I might rape you?" He finally spoke.
"What!?! You won't even dare.....I mean that can't happen sir. I know you're not a rapist." She calmed herself down.
Damien didn't answer her instead, he put his head on the table and slept off.
Kimberly wondered why he'd be here but since she won't be getting an answer, she slept off in her bed.
It was 6pm, Kimberly woke up but couldn't find Damien in the room again.
'Maybe he's back to his room' She thought.
But she was wrong when Damien came out from the bathroom with his wet hair but thank God he has his bathrobe on with a towel around his neck.
"S..sir, are you trying to seduce me in my own room?" Kimberly asked amused that he had a bath in her own hotel room.
Damien frowned at her question but he answered her. "I don't seduce ladies rather they seduce me to sleep with them or date them."
"Why are you really In my room?"
"Well, some workers are in there to fix the mess in the room. Especially, the bathroom. I was told they will fix the room while they fix the bathroom tomorrow and there's no way I can't sleep without taking a bath! Then, I remembered that I have a crazy secretary that can let me use hers." He answered.
"And you stayed hours in this room......."
"Don't you dare ask any questions again!!" He fired immediately. "No more word from you till we leave fool. We are leaving soon. I canceled my plans to stay longer." He breathed out and that was when they heard a knock.
"Come in." Kimberly ordered.
A staff came in and turned to Damien immediately, "Your room is fixed and we manage to do the bathroom together." She spoke and left with a bow.
"See you tomorrow, Secretary Kim. We are leaving tomorrow." Damien walked out not wanting to her reply.
***********************
The next day, Kimberly was ready to leave with his boss when she remembered that she has to tell him what that supplier and Canadian boss said about him.
As soon as she got outside her room. She met her boss too.
"Good morning, Sir." She greeted.
"Save the greeting, Kimberly. There's nothing good about this morning. Anyway, let's go to the business partners maybe they must have come back to their senses."
He walked away from her.
Oh! She's going to face those creepy fools again.
******************
Luckily, Damien met the Canadian boss whose name was Fred Bryan. Gosh! Kimberly could notice his fake smile at her boss. She kept looking and focusing on the supplier who look innocent as ever.
'What a pretense!' She scoffed.
"I'm sorry about yesterday. My workers told me everything and it's too surprising that she's your secretary." Fred pointed to Kimberly before giving her a seductive smile.
"Good to know that. I'm leaving today and I will like to say I'm no longer interested in the goods again. Maybe next time."
"You're no longer what!?" Fred exclaimed.
"Are you that surprised? You shouldn't be. You were supposed to be present yesterday and you know I don't take sh*t! Whatever you're going to say, I don't give a f*ck!" He gave him a scornful look and left Fred to himself.
Kimberly smirked and ran to catch up with him.
"I was about to say something about them. I heard them saying they put some cocaines in some of the goods they'd be giving you."
Damien stopped at Kimberly's word and turned to her.
"What did you just say?" He arched his brows.
But it seems Kimberly has been carried away. She was staring at the man from afar who was holding a pregnant woman's waist.
"Nathan?" She said in shock.
The man she has been looking for.
Daniel brought Emily to Alexandro and turned to leave.Alex grabbed Emily by her hair and made hr face him. He grinned at the swollen face of the girl."You must be enjoying you stay here." Her uncle grinned at her and pulled her hair the more.Emily feared her hair will be out of her head soon."I hate you, Aren't you shameless? Doing this to your own niece?" Emily spat"I love doing this. And it is better you shut your damn mouth or i will have to do that for you. I will make sure i collect every damn property that belongs me from your brother. You two don't deserve to live anyway. I will make hell for you two.""No damn property of ours belongs to you. Why are you this greedy that you had to make your own daughter and son suffer like this?""Hey, don't try to be pitiful here. You or Damien are never my children. I don't even see you as one." Alex frowned and eventually released her hair.Emily breathed out and glared at him. "No wonder you
"Alright, but don't close your eyes okay? If you do I will be scared to death. Don't just do this to me and keep breathing." If they could check on Damien's heart rate, if possible it could have gone to 200%.He looked at the glass and saw a man with a long gun trying to aim again at their direction.Who sent this man? What's he doing? Why did he want to kill him and even his Secretary?He could clearly see the red dot on his chest too. The man in black was about to shoot him too.Damien quickly got up with Kimberly in his hands and tried to rush to the door. Before he could do that, he was shot on his arm instead of the chest.He almost dropped Kimberly on the floor but he stood his ground and carried her more properly.He would protect this innocent girl from any harm. These people are after him and now they included his Secretary.Damien felt the pain in his arm that he was using the remaining strength in him to carry Kimberly and run away from
The lady raised her head and it was Clara. Kimberly gulped down and forced out a smile. She dropped the cake in her hands and stepped back."H..How did you know it my birthday today?" Damien asked. He didn't stop staring at her."Mr Ben told me it going to be your birthday today." Kimberly answered. "I..I..I have to go now. I can see you have visitor. I shouldn't have bothered myself to come." She said again and ran out of the office.Immediately, she closed the door behind her, Kimberly sighed and dropped herself to the ground."I shouldn't have come to the office. And me thinking he's going to be alone and I will be the one to stay by his side all night. You're such a silly girl."She had the thought whether to go back home or stay. It already getting late. She carried herself up and walked to her small table then sat down."Maybe I shou
"I will advise we take things easy, Sir Damien.""Take what things easy?" Damien scoffed. "All i need is to be careful and find every fucking way to get my sister from that monster and put him and his damn men into jail."Kimberly nodded and got up from her seat, prepared to leave but Damien stopped her."Are you recieving any threats from your stepfather?" He glanced at her.He still care and asked about how she's fairing?"No. I did not recieve any." She answered."J..just needed to ask. If he trys anything stupid, do not hesitate to tell me. Call me Mr Ben. There will be three days holiday starting from Tuesday. Inform all staffs about this." Damien told her."Why sudden three days holiday?" Kimberly was surprised to hear that. What's he planning to do? Why the sudden holiday?
Kimberly rushed into the ward Steven was receiving treatment and ran to him. She'd heard about the news from Damien. Steven had ask Damien to call Kimberly to come see her. Damien hesitated at first but later, he'd call Kimberly. "Oh my God! Who did this to you?" Kimberly winced as if she was the one who got hurt. "Some assassins. The doctors said I will be fine soon. I just came out of surgery two days ago." Steven answered her. "You mean you've been shot few days ago and you didn't bother to call me? Or was my boss hesitating to tell me?" "No, I called him yesterday. Could you get my cloth in my car?" He asked. "What if I didn't come?" "I was going to send the nurse." Steven smiled. "Alright." Kimberly agreed. "When I come back, you will tell me wh
Gerald sighed and shook his head before sipping another wine from his glass. "I should have know that he's a bastard all along" He mumbled.He thought of what happened earlier at Dam-Ton Company. The two seems to be close to each other. Probably be in a relationship or something. No, it doesn't look like they are in a relationship.But whatever it is, he still own Kimberly no matter what.*********************Damien paid for the food and helped Kimberly up from her seat. Seeing her like this, she can't go home alone. And who says he's going to let her go home by herself.What if some boy tries to do something awful to her?What's this feeling? Why did he Carr for her so much than anyone he knew around him? Not even Mr Ben or Clara receive so much care like this from him."I can go home myself, thank you for today." Kimberly interrupted h
