MasukAcross town, Nadia sat in a private conference room with her attorney.Her lawyer placed several documents on the table.“You need to be careful.” Her lawyer said to her.“About what?”. She frowned.“Your allegations.”“I told the truth.”“Did you?”“I was afraid.”. Nadia mood hardened “That isn't what I asked.”Nadia looked away.“You are claiming Damien abandoned you and your son.”“Yes.”“You are claiming he failed to protect you.”“Yes.”“And you're asking for twenty-five million dollars.”“Yes.”Her lawyer folded her hands.“Then every single statement you make can be tested.”Nadia said nothing.“We need documentation,” She continued. “Messages where you asked Damien for help and he didn't respond, proof that you were financially dependent on him and he didn't provide evidence of the threats he sent to you, police reports, and medical records that he never provided for you and Ethan.”Nadia's eyes shifted.“I have some of those.”“Some?”“I have messages.”“Good.”Victoria stu
The next morning, Nadia Blake's lawsuit had become the biggest story in the country. It quickly and instantly spread like wildfire. Everyone was talking about it.“Was it not the same woman who lied about the paternity of her child? Now suing for emotional damage?”. This rumor has been circulated around.Everywhere Damien Hale went to it was as if cameras followed him. People loved gossiping and Damien knew that. Not only him was been gossiped about,his company was also being discussed on television. Including his private life being about Sophia and their little son Luca all has been dissected online because the woman he had spent years trying to forget from his memory had suddenly become the center of his world again giving him public scandal. But Damien had refused to give the media what they wanted. He knew exactly how the media works and he had refused to play along with them.He had never made any statement or insult Nadia neither did he deny anything publicly he just simply let
Sophia walked towards the window; she was deep in thought and devastated. She never saw this coming and for years she had tried not to think about Nadia not because she feared her but because Nadia represented the darkest period of her marriage. She was not just Damien’s ex; she was more than a past in both their lives. Nadia had returned once before claiming she had Damien son at the time, Damien and everyone had believed her that lie had been enough to push Sophia out of his life it had taken years of pain, betrayal and truth for them to find their way back to each other now that Nadia was back again claiming that she was maltreated, deprived of her rights and all sorts of nonsense but this time,she wasn't asking Damien to accept her she was taking him to court. Which to Sophia is sound more from someone desperate, someone drowning and trying to clenched on a dry stick for survival. Sophia turned towards Damien .“Did you ever promise her anything “?.Damien looked at her“No”. D
It's been three months now, unbelievable how time flies really quickly and since they had a child the sleepless nights had become less frequent. Their baby no longer wakes at night for constant feeding and changes of diapers. Sophia and Damien are adjusting to the new parental roles even though their child is getting used to how the human world works. Their routines had developed a new rhythm and Sophia had begun to slowly feel herself again; she had adjusted to a lot of things;she is now enjoying her new role as a mother,she was no longer recovered from everything she had endured; she was living, really living. A lot had really changed for her.The peaceful life they had built lasted almost a year. By now their baby had grown into a happy energetic little boy who had inherited his father’s physical look and his mother's intelligence. Luca grew very fast and adorable. Sophia cannot help but admire how beautiful her baby looks. She never believed a day like this would come and she i
The first week at home with their baby was nothing Sophia had ever imagined. It was so stressful because of sleepless nights,they had to changed diapers all the time,the baby cry feels endless and the cry seem to begin at the most inconvenient hours and to Damien he has a lot to get into , every sound their baby made needs immediate investigation to making sure he is alright.“Damien”. Sophia called him one night though her voice sounded sleepy.“Hmnn”?. He answered “You don't need to check on him again but Damien was already up from bed.“I heard his voice, maybe he needed something “.“He just sneezed”.“I know but let me check” “That's how it starts”. Sophia opened her eyes.“How what starts”.“I don't know yet”. She couldn't help laugh.“You're ridiculous “.Damien hurriedly disappeared down the hallway to the nursery . A few moments later, Sophia heard him sing a lullaby to their baby.“Your mother thinks I'm ridiculous “. Damien said to the baby. The baby coos softly.“ See,
Sophia spent three days in the hospital after the birth of their child. She woke up to her baby's soft whimper and this made her eyes open immediately and for a moment she almost forgot where she was,she is not used to this new mother's lifestyle yet then she remembered she has been in the hospital,the delivery of their baby. Then a smile slowly spread across her face. She then turned towards the small baby cot beside her bed and she saw her baby had fully awake, his tiny hands moving restlessly beneath his blankets.“Good my sweetheart”. Sophia said softly to her baby. She then carefully sat up and was about to carry him when the door opened. Damien walked in carrying breakfast. He had gone out earlier while Sophia and her baby were sleeping to get them food.“You're awake”. He asked when he saw her carrying their child.“So is your child”. Sophia replied to him.Damien looked towards the baby cot and this changed his expression. His entire feelings softened.“Good morning, little ma
When Sofia woke up , it was to sterile white ceiling, with the smell of antiseptic filling her nostrils. Her head was sore, her body sore, and a throbbing ache in her tummy . She gazed upon me very slowly, and tried to remember how she had arrived at this point. Then all was back--the dinner, the

Damien already moved by the time anyone else could reach her he was there.“Sophia!” He called out his voice cutting through the noisy background.There she lay still too still, her face pale and her breathing low. For the first time Damien felt something he couldn't control “fear”. It was real
