He just stares at me, I don't know this man in front of me. He is a stranger, he's cold and unreadable. This man in front of me wasn't my Damian, he was foreign. This man in front of me couldn't be the man I'd been pining for the last six months.

"I never said I wasn't." was all he replied

Then it hits me, maybe it was all intentional, just maybe he didn't feel like reaching out to me. I mean since he was so wealthy he could have easily contacted me if he wanted to. Maybe all of it was just in

  • The Voss's undoing   Chapter 22- Friends

    The meeting had lasted just under two hours but it's effects lasted all day. When i got back to the office my mind was still swirling with events from ibiza and this morning's encounter."Cassie Adam." Katherine's voice pulled me back from my thoughts.Katherine hurries towards me a wide smile on her face. "You were brilliant today."I give her polite smile."Thank you.""I'm serious." she squeezes my arm lightly."You handled yourself like someone who's been presenting to billion dollar boards her entire career." she further emphasize.I force a smile, "I didn't feel like that today, I was trembling at the beginning." I..."You hid it well, Cassie, the best professionals rarely feel confident most times." she continues but lowers her voice"And for what it's worth, I don't think Mr Voss was disappointed."My heart skipped a beat when i heard his name again, my heart was a traitor."What makes you say that?" I'm so curious now. Well, you know what killed the cat."He listened, that m

This man in front of me couldn't be the man I'd been pining for the last six months. "I never said I wasn't." was all he repliedThen it hits me, maybe it was all intentional, just maybe he didn't feel like reaching out to me. I mean since he was so wealthy he could have easily contacted me if he wanted to. Maybe all of it was just in my head, me thinking that it meant more, that maybe he liked me just like, just like I liked him, but that was the deal, he didn't make any promises to me...But what about London, when he asked me to visit in London, what did that really mean. Did he want more or was he just teasing me? Either way, it doesn't matter anymore, I was just unlucky when it came to men, first it was Dean, now Damian. I really need to stay away from men forever, maybe I'll become a nun. "D-Did you know that I was wo

  • The Voss's undoing   Chapter 20- Professional Distance

    With every ounce of professionalism I possessed, I began, silently pleading that I could get through this without flopping."Good morning, everyone..." I barely recognized my voice."The vision of this year's Investor conferences and annual gala is to create an experience that's intimate despite its scale..." my voice steading with each word I spoke, gradually gaining my confidence pushing every other thoughts to the back of my mind.No one spoke for a moment after I finished my introduction. The first slide was still projected behind me.Damian glanced down at the proposal, his expression remained unreadable."Continue" his voice was calm, detached."Of course" I swallowed nervously and clicked the next slide."Our vision centers around creating an experience that feels luxurious without becoming..." my nerves were slowly fading, I was finding my rhythm. This was work and work came easily."Our guest will arrive through a candle lit entrance rather than a traditional red carpet. It c

  • The Voss's undoing   Chapter 19 - The Man in the Boardroom

    I wake before my alarm goes off, laying in my bed staring at the ceiling of my apartment. For some reason I couldn't explain my stomach felt tight. It was just another client meeting, I have presented to executives before, pitched million dollars events, this shouldn't be any different.I shake away all thoughts as I get up from my bed. Today matters a lot and I don't need nerves getting the better part of me.I arrive by eight-thirty at Voss Global Holdings and get into the elevator. The elevator door opens onto the executive floor of Voss Global Holdings.The space was understated rather than flashy, Italian marble, warm walnut panels, abstract art, and floor to ceiling windows framing Manhattan.Every detail was amazing, intentional. I walk up to a front desk officer."Hi, Good morning, I'm Miss Adams from Deluxa celebration company." she greets me with a warm smile and points me towards the executive room.I thank her and head toward the executive boardroom, clutching my presentat

  • The Voss's undoing   Chapter 18 - Decision

    It's been two days, two days of constant meetings with Sebastian, I've been on top of everything hoping to God that everything goes according to plan."I think white orchids are too traditional." Sebastian sat comfortably in the video conference from what looked suspiciously like the balcony of a luxury penthouse overlooking Manhattan.I've decided that Sebastian Laurentis is impossible to work with."Weren't you in Boston yesterday?" I couldn't help but ask. I slap my hands across my mouth because this was a conference meeting."I was." he replies flatly like it was so normal, smiling with his eyes.Katherine's voice rings through the conference speaker, "Mr Laurentis has Mr Voss reviewed the updated proposal.""He has, every page."Did he review it himself, I think to myself."And." Katherine continues."Well, he made a few comments." a smile tugged at his lips, he looks at his notepad."Lighting should encourage conversations rather photographs."I nod my head concurring to it.He

    "You're thinking too hard." he offered."No, I'm working." I say little forcefully.He moves his head to the side, studying me intently."You know normal clients actually attend their own meetings." I say unable to keep my mouth shut any longer. But this only made him grin widely."Normal billionaires, yes." he remarks."Billionaires."He flashes me a charming smile."Sebastian"Cassie." he looks like his in good spirits."Anyways let's have lunch and discuss further, all these are boring, am I right?"I shake my head and chuckle, "You are impossible." I mutter."No, bella," he smiled "Impossible is my friend, Damian Voss.""Mr Voss is your friend." the name Damian seemed to make my heart skip beat."Mhm" he keeps smiling and giving me that 'I know something you don't know' look."You've spoken about him before, what's he like?" I ask without giving it a second thought.He seems all too glad to answer this, "He's very annoying.""But you seem fond of him." I pry."I tolerate him." he
