SOPHIA

I was meant to relax but I couldn't. The last time I took time away from work, I was with Damien and he literally took me to the other end of the world just so I wouldn't have to worry about work.

But this time, I was only a few distance away from my foundation headquarters. I kept telling myself that I could juat grab my car key and head there.

And a voice in my head kept holding me back at the same time, telling me I needed the day off to get over what happened to me.

I drank another glass of water to ease my restlessness and I could tell it was probably my tenth glass even though it wasn't noon yet.

My mind was all over the place, images of my office kept flashing in my head and thoughts of the project we just won… I was itching so badly to meet Damien and talk about it with him.

I wanted to be involved from the start.

“Gosh, Sophia. You're losing it” I groaned to myself as I sat on the couch in the living room and palmed my face.

The first thing I did when I woke up was ta

  • The comeback of the billionaire heiress    A proposal we didn't have

    SOPHIAI took over the laptop his assistant worked with once Damien gave me the go ahead with a brief nod. Uncertainty settled in his eyes but he had no idea I saw this coming.If only he'd listened to me, we would have anticipated this together… But he decided not to because he let his emotions get the best of him. All along, I actually thought he was a man of logic. This time though, I guessed not.I typed away on the laptop with focus. Logging into my email account, getting the proposal and then having it sent to the project proposal recipient email address.Then I stood up once I was done and looked down at Damien who was watching me questioningly. He obviously was trying to get a grasp of what just happened but I wasn't going to tell him anything.Not until the end of the project bid. I wanted to punish him too. The same way he did to me publicly.“I'm done. All you have to do is wait for the result and trust me, we're going to win” I told him and he scoffed. He looked very do

  • The comeback of the billionaire heiress    Your final decision

    DAMIEN “I know this is your final decision but I have to be frank with you, Damien. Bribing those people to win the project isn't a good idea” Sophia told me as we returned to my office. I turned around to face her just as she shut the door and she froze. Walking toward her, fear settled in her eyes and I smiled as I stopped a foot away from her.“You're giving an opinion?” I asked her and shifting from foot to another, she eyed me uneasily.“It's not just an opinion, Damien. It's serious advice from me because I care about this company” she corrected with fiery eyes and I chuckled in amusement.It was really difficult to believe a word she said to me now. Ever since I found out she was still seeing Aiden in secret, even going on dates with him at night, I found it difficult to trust her.Sophia had broken our pact. She let the enemy get too close to her than she should and now, I couldn't bring myself to see her as a partner any longer.One year of hard work and now, it was all goi

  • The comeback of the billionaire heiress    What's this meeting about?

    SOPHIAWeeks had passed since all the shocking truths were revealed to me and not a word, a phone call or even a mere message had come from Aiden since I told him off.Even though I missed him badly and wished we could be together against all odds, I knew we couldn't. So I didn't let myself dwell on it too much.I didn't even bother proving my innocence to him anymore because there was no way I could bring myself to tell him that I knew my sister killed his niece.I also didn't confront Damien about Beth. I couldn't. I was scared he would lose his temper and hurt me more than I anticipated and I wasn't ready to face him head on.Thanks to Beth, he knew all my plans, my secrets, and could use them all against me. So it was best I made him believe I was back on his side as I kept working with him.Though that would be until I find the perfect chance to strike.Walking into his company, I was escorted to his office and I walked in to find him busy on his laptop. He smiled when he looked

  • The comeback of the billionaire heiress    Get out of my apartment!

    SOPHIAWalking into my apartment, I tossed my bag and jacket. Then I went to the kitchen where I drank a glass of water first before fixing myself a plate of the meal I'd ordered that morning. My mind hadn't stopped running in circles since the moment I found out about Elena's deed. I questioned a lot of things but most of all, I kept cracking my brain, trying to figure out how Damien managed to find out about me and Aiden still secretly seeing each other.I never told anyone. Even if there was a spy sent by him to work in my office and watch me, he or she wouldn't have possibly known because I never told anyone.Except for Janet and Beth… and I knew Janet too well for too long to know she wouldn't snitch on me. So the only suspect left on my list was Beth. I pondered hard, wondering if there was anything that could have given her away but was ignored by me and soon enough, it all began to make sense. How she had approached me that day, claiming to know me as someone who admired m

  • The comeback of the billionaire heiress    why did you ask?

    SOPHIA I was heaving, struggling to breath even and it wasn't getting any better for me. I quickly rolled the windows to the car down but even with the cool breeze blowing in my face, I still didn't feel any better.The tears wouldn't stop either. No matter how many times I tried to control my spiralling emotions, I failed woefully. I was swimming through a sea of fear, doubt and anger… along with questions. Why would Elena do what she did? Why would she poison Clara when they literally had no personal connection? What vendetta could Elena possibly have against a girl who was just living?At that thought, the tears increased, the tightening knot in my chest twisted even more and my breath shortened even more.I could tell I would pass out at any moment but I was too weak with overpowering pain to move an inch. Powerlessly, I remained in my car to endure the torture coursing through me.Because I felt like I deserved it. I felt it was the least I could put myself through after learn

  • The comeback of the billionaire heiress    She killed Clara

    SOPHIA “Miss Hale, have you heard the shocking news this morning?” Janet had barged into my office, her eyes wide and filled with excitement as she breathed heavily.I eyed her closely while wondering what it could be that'd gotten her to look so excited and I gestured at her to come into the office.“What news? Does it have to do with our business or does it have to do with the snobs we work with?” I asked her and she grinned as she took a seat before me.“It's about Mr Cross, ma'am and it's huge!” She exclaimed and my heart skipped a beat when I heard Aiden's name.It had been a week since that morning in my room. The morning I'd unexpectedly cut things off with him and even though he told me he wouldn't leave me alone, I hadn't heard a word from him.“What about Aiden Cross? Tell me” I demanded from Janet as I narrowed my eyes in sheer curiosity and she nodded.“Mr Cross and his former secretary, Isabella aren't engaged anymore. He called it off himself!” She exclaimed again and t
