Chapter One Hundred And Nineteen

Damien arched an eyebrow at her as curiosity drew him from the windows, and over to the desk.

"My grandmother?" He asked, his voice wary as he looked at the box. Lana watched him pick up the small black box and scrutinized it from all angles, his brows furrowed in a small frown.

He did not reach to open the box as he eyed it, warily, "What's in it?"

Lana collected the box from him and opened it, revealing the letter and the tapes before setting it back down on the desk, "A few months back, Diego gave me this parcel." She swallowed a hard lump in her throat as she reached for the letter and handed it to him, "Apparently, I was supposed to receive it five years ago. Right before she...before Laura died."

Damien was reading the letter now, his expression unreadable but she saw the pain in his eyes. Raw pain and regret which he made no effort to hide as he looked up at her.

Lana's heart ached for him. She knew it would be hard for him to read his grandmoth

  • UNFORGETTABLE EX-WIFE: The Billionaire's Regret   "Its Too Late."

    Chapter One Hundred And Twenty"Uhm...you guys...I'm still here, remember?"Liam's voice crashed through the moment, released Damien from the spell of Lana's tearful eyes. He clenched his teeth as he turned to glare at the assistant, who gave him a defiant look in return.He could have easily walked out of the room to give them some time to themselves, but he was very much interested in their new found case. It was late and he needed to know the next line of action to take concerning this matter, and he needed to know it that night.Lana was so drowsy by then, that she could not sit still. Her eyelids drooped close as her head lolled forward, crashing against Damien's chest.He held her securely, and she did not resist when he hoisted her into his arms, and carried her bridal style out of the room."Wait here." He ordered Liam, who sighed heavily in reply, but did not utter a word.Lana snuggled against Damien as he carried her to her room, rubbing her cheeks against his hard chest.

  • UNFORGETTABLE EX-WIFE: The Billionaire's Regret   "Should I stop?"

    Chapter One Hundred Twenty OneLana's hand flew to her mouth as she stifled a scream, when the door to her left was pushed open, suddenly. She watched with eyes bulging, as Damien walked out of what seemed to be the bathroom, toweling his hair furiously. She stood completely still, and Damien was still unaware of her presence as her eyes became glued to his body. She allowed her eyes to run slowly down his body and her mouth went dry.Damien looked glorious, with his taut body and ripped muscles. His chest was massive and she stared appreciatively, allowing her eyes to travel past his lean stomach and then to his...Lana swallowed hard as her gaze fell on his length, and her jaw dropped open slightly, unable to take her eyes off his massive rod. It laid in a semi-flacid state and as she watched, her eyes widened in fascination when she saw it grow hard.Wait, why was that happening?Suddenly, it occured to her that the only sound that could be heard in the room, was her breath coming

    Chapter One Hundred And Twenty-Two"Miss Lana!"Lana jerked upright as Mandy tapped her arm, and the sheaf of papers she had been holding fluttered to the floor. Mandy looked alarmed but without another word, she bent down and started retrieving the papers from the floor.Lana blinked in surprise and quickly assisted her to retrieve the papers, muttering her apologies."So sorry about that." She said to her assistant, who smiled warmly, although she was worried about the head of design team. She'd been at Lana's desk for over thirty minutes, going over some designs and files when she suddenly realized that Lana wasn't listening to her.Lana sat still, staring into space and unblinking. Her breath was coming out in short gasps and her eyes were glazed, completely lost in whatever she was thinking."Is everything okay, Miss Lana?" Mandy finally asked, her voice tinged with concern, "You look flushed." She said, her eyes roving over Lana's heated cheeks "What were you thinking about?"

    Chapter One Hundred And Twenty ThreeDamien sat in his office, one hand propped on his desk, with his fingers on his head as he read the file in his hands, over and over again.But no matter how much he read it, he was not able to concentrate or get past the first page. His thoughts kept drifting back to a certain red head, and forest green eyes.Sensous lips, pale full breasts and milky skin...Damien groaned loudly and dripped the file. He held his head in his hands, rubbing the ache that had settled there.The thought of what had transpired in his room with Lana, that morning caused him to have a permanent hard-on, his bulging length pushing against his zipper, begging for release.Damien stood up and walked to the small bar in his office, yanking at his tie as he went. The room was suddenly hot and he rolled up his sleeves to his elbow before pouring himself a stiff drink, downing it in one gulp.The image of Lana on the edge of her release, shuddering against him while she rode

She held a glass of wine and stared fixedly into the distance, her face impassive and unreadable.She thought of her last encounter with Zaire and took a deep swallow of her wine, dropping the empty glass on the floor beside her.Her hands went to her neck and she massaged gently, recalling the pain she'd felt when Zaire had pulled her hair, snapping her head back.

    Chapter One Hundred And Twenty-FiveBella visibly shuddered with resentment and fear as she ended the call. She always felt like crap whenever she had a conversation with Rina."You did well." Liam said, scrutinizing Bella with a cool gaze from where he stood by the floor to ceiling windows in Damien's office. Bella bowed slightly, and shifted uncomfortably in her seat. Liam had not been harsh nor had she messed up with what had been asked of her, but she was still very uncomfortable. Probably, because Damien had not said a word after the phone call. Her eyes darted to where he was seated very straightbacked on his chair at the head of the table. He had his eyes closed all through her conversation with Rina, as if he was asleep but the slight furrow of his brows indicatedvthat he was awake and aware of everything that was going on.They were all gathered in Damien's office, Bella, Liam and Damien.After listening to the recordings retrieved from the tapes earlier, Damien had order

Lana asked, her voice sharp. Without waiting for an answer, she whirled on Damien, "Why is she with my box?!"Damien had his head on his hand, his eyes closed with frustration. Liam was on his feet in seconds as he walked over to the women."Miss Lana, if you'll just step into the office," he stepped round them to close the door behind, which had been left wide open by Lana. He turned to face the women and met Lana's steely glare. She placed her hand on the box, "Hand it over." She said, glaring at the maid who flinched and immediately let go of the box, scuttling backwards."No."They all turned to face Damien who was staring at them, a grim expression on his face.His expression became soft, however when he spoke to Lana, "Give her the box, Lana.""And why would I do such a thing?"

Her hair was covered with a scarf and she had a pair of huge goggles on her face, which she peered through.The goggles, however, hid her face more than making her see clearly, and in frustration she wrenched it off her face, and threw it on the chair beside her.She did not care if she was recognized.She was already on the verge of storming across the parking lot of the mall, checking out everybody's faces herself in search for Bella.She had arranged to meet Bella in the parking lot of the biggest mall in the city. It was quite packed now with carts, and also a few people milled about, pushing trolleys and placing groceries in their cars.Bella had gotten hold of the box and Rina could not say how pleased she was. She was also very impressed with Bella for getting the box within such notice.Truly, she was reliable. The mall was the perfect spot to meet Be

Some of the production team members as well.""Well, its better than being jailed.""That's right. They got off easy, I think.

    Chapter Two Hundred And Thirty-SixThe door to the sales office creaked loudly as Gary slowly pushed it open.He walked calmly into the office and came to a dead stop, as everyone turned to face him immediately.The Regional Head was standing with his legs apart in the office, and his hands clasped behind him, like some sort of military commander.Flanking him on both sides were the members of the internal audit team, looking as neatly pressed and put together, with not one hair out of place or a rumple in their clothes, as though they had not just finished a grueling three weeks task.A task that could have taken them three months, and had taken the original internal team a couple of years. The other employees in that office stood behind their desks, nervously clutching their hands and giving each other side looks.Their gazes flitted from the Regional Head to Noah and back to each other. The tension in the office was palpable and they could not wait to get past the suffocating mome

She said, throwing up her hands in disgust, "I should have known better than to warn you. I'd have just let your head be blown off in the streets because you deserve it!"Gary scoffed, "That's freaking bullshit." He said, a tiny smirk curving his lips, "You don't scare me and neither does he! I'm calling his bluff."Maya laughed in disbelief, then slowly blinked in confusion as Gary puffed out his chest, tucking his hands deep in his pockets.He was really serious!Her jaw twitching with anger, she jabbed a finger in his shoulder, "Don't say I did not warn you," she snarled, "I'd like to see you so smug when you're six feet under."She stormed off, and Gary watched her, his ey

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!"

The Regional Head repeated in puzzlement, "What could that be?"Maya's heart slammed in her chest as she heard Noah say those words.
