Chapter Fourteen

"You wouldn't want a bastard from a gold digger now, would you?!"

Rina stepped backward in shock as Damien suddenly lunged at her, his huge hands wrapped around her slender neck.

"That's my child you're talking about!" He roared, his eyes bulging with anger as he glared down at her "How dare you refer to it as a bastard?!"

Rina had gone pale, and she shook like a leaf in Damien's hands.

"Damien, what are you doing?!" Vera screamed in a shrill voice as she walked into the room.

She had heard Damien roar in anger, and had hurried over to see what was happening only to see this.

Rina gasped as she tried to ease the pressure of his huge hands around her neck, and Damien finally let go, when he realized he had held her too tightly.

Rina sank to the floor, trembling as tears filled her eyes. Reaching up to tou

They formed a formidable group with Lana in front of them, looking every inch like a queen in her long black dress, that shimmered with thousand of well cut diamonds that had been cleverly sewn into the material of the dress.The dress hugged her figure, and accentuated her perfect curves. It had thin straps and was designed to show her delicate and enticing bare back which was covered at the moment with a very stylish custom made suit jacket.Cl

It had gone a bit cold so it did not scald her tongue as it did for Zaire when he first tasted it.The rich taste of coffee burst in her mouth, giving off the calming and soothing feeling she always felt when she had her morning coffeeAlthough the smile in Zaire's face was light and cheerful, his eyes held a tinge of sadness. He saw that Lana was still wary about him.He watched Lana and smiled at the contented look on her face as she savored her coffee. His eyes roved over her face, half dazed as he admired the beauty of her heart-shaped face. Her red hair which she styled to the side was luscious and tendrils of red curls framed her face.Occasionally, she would raise a well manicured hand to brush a tendril from her face as she sipped from her coffee.Lana looked up and her soft green eyes fell on Zaire's piercing ones which were

Behind her, Diego had been startled from his position and he blinked rapidly, looking from Zaire to Lana.Zaire was very amused at their expressions, that he almost laughed out loud."Come on, did you think I wouldn't know you were Muse, Lana?" He drawled, cocking an eyebrow at them."I don't know what you're talking about." Lana finally found her voice and she said firmly. She picked up her coffee again and took another sip.She kept her eyes defiantly away from Zaire as she denied the Muse title. She had thought she kept the identity really secret, but of course, Zaire was just too smart for her.Actually, Zaire had not been sure if she was Muse and had only said that on a whim. But the expressions of Lana and Diego was enough to confirm his earlier suspicions.It only made sense that Lana was Muse. He had seem her work and knew how spectacular they were. Most of th

I'll let Mr Evans know immediately."He stood up as he spoke and Lana did the same too, walking him to the door. Her face was flushed and still lit up in awe. The atmosphere in the room sudden became lighter, happier with the news Zaire brought.She was really grateful to him. Zaire looked at her pleased expression, and gave himself a mental pat for a job well done.He was determined to make her happy all the time. If he continued this way, perhaps she might give him a chance and open up her heart to him.Or so he thought."Let me walk you to your car," Lana offered and he nodded.He straightened his sharp designer suit, and took long strides towards the huge double doors with brass handles.As he reached for the handle, however, the door was suddenl

When Lana had returned home and they'd met once more, it was clearly seen that she was not okay.She was not the bright bubbly Lana that she was before she had left.

He refused to be contracted with any company for any periods longer than six months.And if he did, the company had to be among the top five in the country. Once Pierre contracted with them, they remained in that top five due to his influence.Pierre Evans had worked for MAGIC TOUCH for just three months when Laura was alive but it was memorable. He focused more on mentoring their designers, helping them to make outstanding designs.

She cried out in agony, "Let me go. At once!""Not until you explain what you mean by that little statement which you just uttered," Gary fired back heatedly."I meant exactly what I said, you piece of trash, " Maya said as she mustered her energy and stomped on his toe with her heeled foot."Ahh!" Gary cried out in anguish as pain exploded in his foot. He let go of her hair at once and doubled over in pain, trying to hold his throbbing toe but it was much too painful.Maya, seeing as she was free from his hold, turned back and stared at him in disdain, "You think I won't take protective measures for myself?

They knew that, yet he was still asked to prepare the reports in such a short time.Although he did not have much chance of defending himself, since he was a lower level employee, yet the Regional head was known to be fair to others not on his level.He hated any sort of unfair practice and he would definitely side with Noah if he revealed he had been pressured into making the reports.Yet, Noah had come out boldly, as if he was ready to take the fall, the consequences of making such sloppy reports."He's done for," Greg sighed in despair, watching Noah with pitiful eyes."He really is just a golden haired dumbass," Jason agreed

He yelled, "Enough of this!"Gary was stunned but in the next minute he burst into a ridiculous laughter at Noah's audacity.
