The Unloved Wife Of Damien Whitmore Chapter 55
Chapter 55SelinaI knew the face the moment the door opened. One second, that was all it took. Then every loose piece from the past months: the forged donor records, the targeted questions and the journalist fell into a single, clean line.It had been her the whole time. She couldn't look at me. That was the first thing I noticed. She was ashamed that I expected the words to literally jump out of her face. I filed that away immediately because shame meant something useful. It meant she was just another pawn on this chessboard. There was a particular way people carried themselves when they believe in what they're doing. This wasn't it."Did you know about the baby?"The question stopped her cold. Her eyes went to my stomach, just for a second, the kind of thing a person can't control and then away. The wall became very interesting to them.They said nothing. They didn't need to.I had been studying the room. The single bulb, the lock on the door. T

Chapter 54Amora POVIt was quite late. The office was completely silent and dark except my office. My face radiated with the glow of the laptop. There was a scowl on my face as I scanned through the documents. A glass of red wine sits untouched besides my laptop.The new plan was taking too long to come together. I rubbed the ridge of my nose and clenched my free hand. I wanted to scream so badly. I had the perfect plan after months of painstaking deliberation and action. The perfect plan is out of the window because of something I didn’t foresee or didn’t account for.I was pissed at myself for not considering that she would get pregnant. Damien wasn’t made out of wood. I felt like pulling my hair out.All these wasn’t going to work. When word gets out that’s she pregnant, she will become a loved figured.

CHAPTER 53DAMIEN POVMy office had become something like the Pentagon especially when the Committee of joint Chiefs had been summoned on any DEFCON level. Derek, Caleb, Dean and Marcus were all present. No one said a thing. There wasn’t anything to be said at all. There was a bottle of alcohol that remained untouched unlike before. Caleb was even unusually quiet. There was no jokes from him or the cynical quips from Derek.There were screen grabs of the incident on the table, taken from different angles to gain a 360 degree perspective. Besides them are the documents, Dean and Caleb were to able find out about the shell companies that were trying to set him up. There was also Derek altered lithium contracts, bank statements and corporate records.It was an absolute mess. I regretted being right all long. It was this same office Derek dismissed the coordinated attack as coincidence.Caleb talked about how the investment system worked, everyone listened attentively but my head was s

Chapter 52Selina POVI stirred awake, my head throbbed as my vision slowly came back. There was a slight ringing in my ears. What happened? Where was I?Images of a hand over my mouth, feeling drowsy as I led to a car flashed across my mind. Adrenaline quickly shot through my body and I was instantly awake.I stared around the car. The cool leather cushion, the immaculate smooth drive told me it was an expensive car. It was probably German. The driver drove the car with the smooth assuredness of someone who knew where he was going. We weren’t on the high way and took too many detours and turns. They were probably trying to avoid highway patrol cops and cameras.My hands weren’t bounded and I wasn’t blindfolded either. They didn’t mind me seeing where I was being taken to or they weren’t expecting me to make a return trip from where I was being taken to. Neither was comforting, I clutched my stomach and focused

Chapter 51Damien POVI checked the time and had a sudden feeling to call Selina. I had no idea what to say or what to talk about but I picked my phone and dialed her number.The line thrilled as her phone rang but she didn’t pick up.I checked the time again. Four forty. Almost closing time. There was a flurry of activities that always peaked right before closing time and just assumed she was caught in the middle of it.Dropping the phone, I concentrated on my laptop as I read through the contract on the screen. I checked the time. Five pm. She hadn’t returned the call. I dialed again, it rang but there was no answer again.This was unlike her. I checked and got the number for Ryland foundation. I stared at the phone, my thumb hovering over the dial button.It is what it is.I tapped the button. The line rang and a receptionist picked.“I

Chapter 50Selina POVI glanced at my wristwatch. 2.30pm. It was almost time for my check up. I had about forty-five minutes to go. I packed up my stuff and left the office without saying a word to anybody. I could feel their stares on my back as they murmured amongst themselves. My eyes scanned the area immediately I exited the building for the black sedan. Ever since that day at the mall, I hadn’t seen it and it had made me rather unsettled than relieved. What could they be up to? I waited for another three minutes just to be certain. I checked the corners, nothing.This isn’t good at all. I don’t like it. No choice but to carry on usual. Hailing a cab, I entered and gave directions to the clinic. There was no way in hell I was going to stop living my life because of a single car. I had goals before the black sedan came into my life and now it was out of my life, I was going to focus on those goals again.Checking the time, I sighed. I was barely going to make it on time. The cli

Chapter 4LINA The silence that followed my words was absolute.Even the wind seemed to hold its breath. Damien stood completely still, the color still absent from his face, his jaw slack in a way I had never seen before. He looked, for the first time since I had known him, like a man who had been

Chapter 3LINAThe cemetery was quiet and empty in the late morning. I had brought fresh lilies-it used to be my mum's favourites, and held them to my chest as I walked the familiar path leading to their graves.I'd been here countless times over the years, but today felt different. Today I was goi
