Chapter 50: Haunted
Layla's POV"Layla, are you still there?", he sounded worried that I may have hang up on him, or was planning to while I was just frozen right where I was with the phone still on my ear. Why was he calling me? After all he's done to me and my father?"What do you want?", I asked, sitting up from the bed"I need to talk to you, please", he begged and a tear went down my cheek"After all you've done to me and my family? You have the nerve to want to see me and to even call me"."I know I'm asking for much but-", he said, and I interrupted him"Asking for much?", I scoffed mockingly, and I could hear him heave a sigh on the other line. "You destroyed my life"Tears streamed down my face as flashbacks began running through my mind about that fateful day my life changed forever"That's why I need to see you. I want to apologize for everything I've put you through Layla. Please, if you just could make time to come and see me, I promise I won't be long-", I hung up on him before he could eve

Chapter 51: Obstacles
Damon's POV"I need you to come home with me", I said, and it looked like Layla froze in her spot for a little while, before her eyebrows knitted in confusion"Can I ask why?", she placed her notebook on the coffee table. "If this is about Dylan's party, I can plan it here and make it in time to celebrate it. I don't need to move back"."It's not about Dylan's party", I said, and I could see her pinching herself on the arm. "Why are you pinching yourself?""Oh, it's nothing", she laughed it off a little, like she didn't even realize that she was pinching herself. "Then what is it about then?"I drew a sharp breath. "I need your help""My help with what?""There's this new client at the company. The account is worth billions, and it can save the company from bankruptcy"."That's great news, isn't it?""It was, until Mr Brown let her daughter, Ella to handle all the interactions between Brown enterprises and the company""So", her eyes lurked around in confusion for a bit.

Chapter 52: Spark
Damon's POVLayla looked so stunning, I literally couldn't keep my eyes from her. I'm glad Wesley was driving us to the ball since Harry is still with his family because I wouldn't even be able to concentrate on the road and I could see she was trying to hide the fact that she was blushing, and she honestly didn't like to be complemented, but I couldn't help it. She was beautiful.I will not even get started on how perfect she looked in that dress, it wasn't either reveling, not to plain, it was just perfectWesley found a secure parking, and I stepped out to open the door for Layla and within just seconds, reporters were already in our facesYou're back together?What happened to you two?What about your son?Are the divorce allegations true?I shielded her away from those hyenas without any of us saying anything, and we finally breathed when we were inside the venue“I'm sorry about that”, I apologized when we walked down the red carpet and there was a waiter standing by with glasse

Chapter 53: Vain
Layla's POV“We're freshly out of popcorn”, Damon crushed the now empty, third paper bag of pop corn in his hands and stood up to throw it in the bin not so far from where we were sittingWhen he returned to his seat I was battling to keep my eyes open, kept rubbing then lazily while yawning“Ready to go back home?”, he asked, and I shook my head, placing my head back on his shoulder“Not yet”, I let out another quiet yawn before rubbing the sleep off my eyes again. “So, do you think Ella got the message?”He shrugged a little. “I don't know, but I think so”“Is it me, or she didn't seem to be shaken by seeing us together?”“Maybe, but she wouldn't freak out right there and then. Of course, she would put a brave front”, he chuckled for a bit as he shook his head.“What's so funny?”, I asked dumbfounded, looking at him, and he chuckled again“You should have seen her face when you kissed me, she was pissed”I laughed a little. “I don't know why out of all the available men in the world

Chapter 54: Drift
Layla's POV“Home sweet home”, I announced happily when I opened my apartment door and Damon walked in with my bag, then closed the door behind him Within a split second, he grabbed me by the waist and hauled me to him, picking me up effortlessly while wrapping my legs around his waist“It surely feels good to be alone with you again”, he walked us to the couch before dropping us in the process and I straddled him“What are you doing?”, I asked as he wrapped my arms around his neck, bringing our faces closer as he looked at me, and he buried his head between my head and shoulder, and felt his tounge moving in circles on my sensitive neck, causing the hairs on my arms to stand up, and I closed my eyes, slowly slipping into his desires, with him continuing to suck softly on my skin“Ow”, I jumped a little when he bit a little to hard and I felt his chest moving up and down, this idiot was laughing“Did I hurt you?”, he bought his face up and examined my neck with caution while trying to

Chapter 55: Smoke
Damon's POV"Quinton, tell me you're kidding", I stared in horror at my laptop screen, seeing a mount of dead bodies loaded out of the plane onto the ground, mostly covered with body bags. A sharp pain went through my chest and I groaned in pain, clenching onto my shirt as if by doing that the pain would go away."Damon, are you okay?", Quinton asked before I slammed the phone onto the receiver. My eyes watered as I kept looking at the news, thinking that Layla was possibly one of those lifeless bodies that laid on the ground, it was a horrific scene. People started gathering around and some had to be taken away due to being horrified by what they were seeing."It can't be", I whispered to myself, seeming to run out of breath and my heart was beating so fast, it felt like it was trying to rip itself out of my rib cage as my chest tightened, with me trying to let out a loud scream but nothing came outNot Layla, she can't be dead......she just cantThere must be a flipping huge mistake

Chapter 56: Closing
Scarlett's POVThe main gates to the Kingsley mansion opened when I managed to tame the guard into letting me in despite what seems to be Damon's instructions to call the main house first in order to be let in or not, and I pressed twice on the buzzer and knocked in the door then waited. When the door opened, Mary's wrinkled eyes were full of questions the second she saw me.“Hi Mary”, I smiled a little, and she gave a nod of acknowledgement before she stepped aside, inviting me in“Ms Crane”, she closed the door behind me. “What can I do for you?”“I'm here to see Damon, is he around?”“I'll go get him for you”, she turned on her heels, but I grabbed her arm to stop her“Um, Mary”, I started, and she turned to look at me. “I would like to apologize for my behavior and everything bad I did to you during that time Damon and I were still together. If I could, I would take back everything, I'm sorry”.“Thank you for your apology, I accept it”, she smiled a little. “Please take a seat as

Chapter 57: Mist
Damon's POVI was still drying the dishes when Mom and Layla were in the lounge still going through the recipes for the feast they were planning to cook for the Christmas lunch next week and I felt a presence behind me and I already knew it was my father.“Even after all these years, you still resent me”, he said, and I turned to look at him, leaning with my back on the sink“I don't resent you”, I folded my arms, and he pocketed his hands“Then why are you acting like this?”, he questioned. “We can't even have a decent conversation like two adults because you're acting like a child”“We'll start having a decent conversation like adults when you start acting like one, and you stop treating me like a child”, I said, and he chuckled a little before shaking his head “What's this about Damon?”“Of course you're going to act like you don't know”“That's because I don't”“I know about your affairs”, I said and his face dropped, like he thought I didn't know. “So I also remind you with whom,

Chapter 58: Distress
Layla's POV“Damon?”Groan“Damon, wake up”Exaggerated groan“What?”, he mumbled softly, his voice sounding sleepier than usual, and I turned the bedside lamp on“I can't sleep”“Do you have any idea what time it is?”, he turned so that his back faced me. “It's even still dark outside”“I'm aware it's 2am, I just can't sleep“You can watch me sleep then”, he turned to face me. “Can you please switch that light off? It's irritating my eyes”, he asked with his eyes forcibly shut, and I did as I was asked. He then wrapped his arms around me, pulling me close to him.“What are you thinking about?”, he whispered to my ear“Scarlett”, I breathed out, and he sighed heavily“I thought I told you she isn't going a problem anymore. She's out of our lives, for good”.“Why did she change her mind in the first place? She didn't want anything to do with Dylan the moment he was born, and now she thinks we're not fit enough to be his parents? What game is she playing?”“She was just under a lot of p

Layla's POVAfter dinner was served, I tried by all means to keep myself busy and avoid by all means to bumping into Troy or Adriana. He kept stealing glances at me during dinner and at a spilled of a second, Adriana nearly caught him looking at me, but he quickly looked away and by the time she looked up, she found my eyes on her and I gave a short smile before looking away.“Deniz, do you mind excusing us for a minute?”, Damon asked when he walked into the kitchen as I helped Deniz to serve dessert. “We'll take it from here, thanks”He dismissed her, and she nodded her head before excusing herself“Are you okay?”, he ran his hand up and down my arms from behind“I'm fine”, I gave a short smile, pouring the custard over the pudding in each dessert bowl.” I'm just trying to keep busy”.I felt his hand brush against mine, taking the custard and placed it on the counter“You're a nervous wreck Layla, you're jumpy, and you're shaking, plus your mind was all over the place during dinner”,
