SOPHIA

“Ma’am, if I heard correctly from behind the door, are you going on an all-paid trip to Seychelles?” Janet asked as she returned into my office and I snapped out of my trance to look at her.

I smiled and adjusted my hair before taking a seat and she watched me.

“Is anything wrong? Do you not want to go?” she asked and I quickly shook my head. If anything, I was over the moon about it. I just didn’t understand why Damien was suddenly getting touchy with me.

“Not at all, Janet. I’m very excited about the trip and yes, you heard correctly,” I told her and she grinned from ear to ear.

“If I’m to give my thoughts, I would say that you deserve it. It’s high time you got some time to yourself after working tirelessly for a year. You’re a strong woman but even strong people need to take a break sometimes.”

She told me and all I did was gape at her because how could she hit the nail so precisely on the head?

I always knew she cared deeply about me. Right from the moment she refused to

  • The comeback of the billionaire heiress    A test on loyalty

    DAMIEN I wanted to call Elena's plan bluff but I couldn't. I couldn't because I had a great fear that it would pan out the way she'd predicted.Sophia's weakness was Aiden. No matter how much she claimed to want revenge on him, I could tell that she wasn't completely done with her feelings for him. That genuinely pissed me off. He used her and then dumped her. So why didn't she hate him? Why couldn't she get angry at just the mention of his name?I kept questioning the elaborate plan Elena had already set into motion. I tried to think of ways I could stop it from happening the way she wanted but I couldn't come up with anything.There was no way I could stop Aiden from seeing Sophia. He would see her if he wanted to. Especially after receiving those pictures.But what was Sophia going to do if he approached her? What was she going to say to him?I sighed as I pressed my palm against my forehead when the thoughts and questions became too much for me to handle. I didn't want to doub

  • The comeback of the billionaire heiress    The new friend

    SOPHIA“We're here, Miss Hale” the driver informed me and I opened my eyes to see we were in front of my apartment. “Thank you” I sat up and grabbed my bag as he got the door for me. Then he pulled my luggage out while I waited and together, we walked to my front door.He handed me my luggage and left and I went in, the silence welcoming me after being away for a few days.I slumped on my chair with a sigh. Then I closed my eyes to rest for a while and the thought of Damien rushing off to meet someone privately came back to me.I opened my eyes to stare at the wall as I wondered who this person he was seeing was and sighing again, I stood up to go to my room.I pushed my luggage into the closet before I left for the bathroom to rinse my face. Then I looked into the mirror and I decided not to think too much about what Damien was up to. If he wanted me to know, he would tell me. But if he doesn't, it would only mean it's either a very private business of his or maybe it's just person

  • The comeback of the billionaire heiress    Elena's plan

    DAMIEN“Take me to Hale's Dynasty. Now” I ordered my driver immediately I got into my car and I watched Sophia through the tinted glass as he sped off.It was time to place Elena where she belonged.It took almost an hour to get there and once the car came to a stop, I didn't wait for my driver to get the door. I got out myself and stormed into the building and I didn't have to wait at the front desk. I was led to Elena's office as soon as I introduced myself and I could tell she had been waiting.Elena was seated behind her desk as I walked in and I scoffed when she smiled at me. Her audacity was beginning to disgust me.“It's good to see you again, Damien Locke. The last time we were together still lives in my memory” she giggled and I watched as she slowly got out of her chair.She walked around the desk and stood before me. Then she held her arms akimbo as her smile turned into a smirk.“Go easy on the glare, Damien. Your eyes might just bore a hole through my head the longer you

  • The comeback of the billionaire heiress    Awkward after kiss

    SOPHIA I couldn't remember everything from the night before but immediately I woke up, what I could recall was the moment Damien almost kissed me.I didn't think I could bring myself to face him. Was he going to bring it up or not? Or was he going to let it go the way I wished he would?My thoughts were all over the place as I walked to and fro in my room, letting my nerves get the best of me.My head was hurting from drinking too much. The hangover felt like torture. But still, I was too reluctant to step foot outside my room. What exactly was I going to say to him?I groaned as I pulled at my hair in frustration and pain from the hangover and I sighed.“Damn you, Damien. Why did you have to do that?” I whispered and there was suddenly a knock on the door. I gasped in shock.Quickly, I held my hair up in a loose bun to at least good since I hadn't taken a shower. Then I grabbed a long robe closely and wore it over my nightdress.With that, I got to the door and I didn't look at him.

  • The comeback of the billionaire heiress    Elena's scheme

    DAMIENGlad that I finally made Sophia smile at the end of the day, I stood up from her bed and left her room for mine. Once I was alone, I pulled my phone out of my pocket and quickly sent a message to Elena. If it was attention she wanted, then I was going to give it to her. Just enough to keep her from doing anything stupid with those pictures until I would be back in the city."I know you were an attention seeker right from the moment you showed up in front of Sophia’s house but I never knew you would be desperate enough to ruin your sister’s name just for your enjoyment."Then I sent it to her after typing away furiously on my phone. As if she had been waiting to hear from me, her response was prompt. And she didn’t seem to be scared or remorseful. Instead, she was challenging me."Damien Locke....when it comes to Sophia, our bad blood runs deeper than you could imagine so yes! I would do whatever I want to take her happiness away. I would strip her of all that matters to her…

  • The comeback of the billionaire heiress    pretty in her sleep

    DAMIEN“I was worried about you, Sophia. No matter how you tried to hide it, you clearly weren't over that incident from that night we went out for dinner. So I racked through my brain, thinking of what could make you feel better and bringing you to the club was the only possible solution”I confessed to Sophia as we remained in the booth. Music was still booming loud, a few glasses of drinks had been taken too and it was only half an hour we'd spent.“I hope you like this, though? I don't want you pretending to enjoy this place so be honest” I asked her and she shrugged before pouring herself another glass and she took a sip.“I must say, Damien. You found the perfect place to help me unwind because I like it here. I feel so lightweight already” she slurred and I frowned.She was getting drunk already. That meant she was a lightweight drinker.“Careful with the alcohol Sophia. It'll knock you out if you take too much” I warned and she giggled after taking another sip.“Relax, Damien.
