ELLA'S POV

I was annoyed beyond measure. How could he be so cruel? Sylvia had worked with him for the past two years yet he just threw her out like that? There was no proof, no evidence to show that she was guilty of the crime he accused her of.

I glanced at him as he stood in front of every employee in the meeting room while he spoke and I couldn't help the hatred that bloomed in my heart against him.

He was everything I hated and it made me sick to my stomach that I was working with someone like him. What made it worse was that I slept with him and that was the only reason I got this job.

He announced that he would be getting a new secretary and I scoffed while I cussed at him under my breath. I wanted to get revenge for Sylvia but my hands were tied.

“That being said, my new personal secretary is…” His voice trailed as his gaze moved over everyone before stopping to meet mine.

“Everyone, please applaud my new personal secretary, Miss Ella.” He announced and everyone in the room imm

    ELLA/DAMIAN'S POVDAMIAN'S POVI held Ella by the hand as we walked into the restaurant. It was a cold evening and I had her put on my suit jacket above her red dinner dress. The restaurant was totally empty because I booked out the whole place. I wouldn't want Ella feeling uncomfortable for any reason. I had my hands tucked into my trouser jacket as I clutched tightly on the ring case in it. I felt a bit anxious but I knew I needed to do this.I pulled a sit out for Ella and watched her sit right into it as I sat directly opposite to her, she had this weary smile on her face and I wondered why.“Why is the place this quiet?” She asked, rolling her eyes all around the room, I gave off a weird smirk but said nothing else to her.“What would you like to have?” The waitress asked, walking towards us, I looked through the menu and found Ella doing the same, she seemed so confused as to what she was gonna order.“The steak here is nice,” I said, giving off a reassuring smile.“Mmmmm!” She

    DAMIAN'S POV“Was it really over!?”I found myself pondering on that question every minute of the day, the image of Maria laying flat on the ground, her blood splattered all around couldn't stop replaying in my head. Her death seemed like the end of it all, the torture, the nightmares the pain I had to go through for years. I didn't wish for her death, but her death brought freedom for us all.We left the police station and I felt even better. I watched Jason drop down on his feet in defeat. He knew it was the end for himself. The only person I felt a bit of pity for was Sylvia, although she was gonna pay for her crimes nonetheless, everyone needed to take responsibility for their actions. She committed them all fully conscious, her being remorseful was only a sign of repentance, she could fully repent whilst serving time.I looked at Ella as we drove back to the house, she looked extremely anxious and I could guess she had the same question in her head. Was it really over, maybe ther

    ELLA'S POVThe drive back home was silent as I wondered what Damian might be thinking of me. I vowed never to tell a man I had lost my womb during an abortion. But seeing Damian, I was willing to trade it all. As much as I claimed I didn't want to end up with Damian, a part of me still begged God to make him mine. I couldn't imagine a life without him any longer, but I wasn't ready to punish someone else for my own sins.We were now home and I couldn't stare into Damians face, I hurried towards the door not waiting for him to say a word to me. I was utterly embarrassed, I let out my deepest secret and worst of all, I cried like an infant in Damians arms. I got into the room and shut the door behind as I fell down flat into the bed. I found myself sobbing uncontrollably, I didn't know what my fate held unto, I cried my eyes out till my voice felt cranky.“Ella?” I heard a knock on the door, it was Anna and I was sure she wanted me out for dinner. I couldn't afford to stare back at Dami

    ELLA'S POVWe left the police station in silence as we drove back towards the house down side Texas, I rubbed my sweaty palms continuously on my dress and I was sure Damian had noticed that. He also seemed to be so anxious, everything seemed to be happening so fast, first Damian's dad was murdered then his stepmom killing herself and now Jason's surrender in total defeat, it seemed as though a greater storm was on the way. How was I right beside Damian without the fear of anything, I didn't know if what I felt was peace or it was just the feeling of calmness before a wagging storm surfaced. Damian looked into my eyes and held onto my hands so tightly as if to reassure me it really was all over, there wasn't any stalker, neither was there a toxic ex. I really was free, I rested my head into the chair and sighed in deep relief.A part of my chest still throbbed in pain, I had lost my friend, I really got betrayed by my own friend Sylvia. The look in her eyes at the police station clearl

    JASON'S POVAfter the legal team left, I never saw them at the police station again. I wondered how this incident went to light, I suspected Damian pushed it out into the public, I called my own lawyers and although they assured me I was gonna be out, the odds were so low. Dad had dragged onto the public sentiment as he spoke with the media pleading with the masses and assuring them justice was gonna be served in my case. He was a fucking traitor to leave his own son at the face of crisis, that actually was just like him, he always did what was best for the company, not caring about me or anyone else. I was totally fucked and I needed a way out, with dad out and Maria off the radar I could fall back on Damian and if it didn't turn out well I was gonna crawl on my knees to Maria.Sylvia was a fucking idiot, and I regretted the day I decided to join hands with her, she was blood but certainly didn't behave as one. She had implicated us both and wouldn't even try to get us out as she acc

  • Falling for the CEO Who Ruined My Best Friend   CHAPTER 173

    DAMIAN'S POVWe were back to the desk where it all began for Ella, where the thought of revenge sprang up, where her anger multiplied. The same desk she got to know how bitter people were about her. The only difference today was that there were two victims and two assailants. Tommy looked at us four with keen interest, he wouldn't want an outburst whilst he was helping me. I needed to see Jason and make it known to him that he never was leaving the cell, he had tried it all but I came to assure him he was at a loss. Sylvia sat right beside him, her eyes so bulgy, she certainly had cried her fucking eyes out. I was glad she at least knew it was the end for her.“I don't wanna be here, can I leave?” Sylvia raised up her head as she spoke, I'm quite sure she was overly surprised to see me still alive and well.“No you can't,” Tommy simply said.“I've said it all, what more do you want me for!!!” She snapped. I was sure her pride couldn't let her sit in the same room as me and Ella, she c
