“ Who I am is none of your business, I have told you, the next time you dare to get involved in my business, that will be the last day you'll work here!” Layla warned. Scarlet was stunned. Was she dreaming? Who the heck is this lady and what has her boss gotten himself into?These questions and more kept on running through her mind, but she decided to stay in her lane, her job mattered a lot to her and she wouldn't do anything that would warrant her losing it, hence, she had to stay in her lane and keep off Layla's business.“ Yes,” Scarlet managed to say and nod her head.Layla smiled and returned to her seat. After a long day, Damian came to her desk and together they went home.The next day, due to their intended lovemaking in the morning, They were late to the office, and as an intern, Layla’s reporting time was earlier than that of her managers. As such, she was eager to leave the office when Damian tightened his grip around her waist and said,“ Sugar, don't let me remind you

“I don't appreciate people barging into my office without knocking,” Justin said. Yes! Damian owned the company but that doesn't guarantee him invading his privacy. Damian on the other hand didn't reply, he just smiled and this even made Justin more worried.But. Old pals know each other better than anyone else right? Did Damian want to fight him? Justin could think of the worse and the fact that he was no longer a match for Damian made matters worse and he feared.“ Wait,Did you come all the way here to beat me simply because I had a chat with Layla?”Justin stood up from his swivel chair and asked sinisterlyIt would make more sense if Damian got violent, at least, Layla would know the kind of man she was married to and Justin would make sure to show her proof.Fortunately for him, Damian's intentions were far from that. He wasn't going to do anything that would put Justin in such a despicable position, at least, for Kendra’s sake.“ I have more important things to do than wit

“ You made a pact with the devil, Two devils? Wait I don't understand, make this make sense to me Layla.” Kendra said, confused at Layla's statement.Layla was dumbfounded. Gosh! This was not a good idea. She thought.She didn't know how Kendra would react if she heard the full story if she's already acting this way now.“I believe you have not lost your tongue Layla, what have you gotten yourself into?” Kendra did not appreciate the fact that Layla was keeping her in suspense. If she knew she wouldn't tell her what the problem is she shouldn't have started this conversation.“ I was naive and brainwashed. I swear I didn't know they had different plans to set in motion. I swear they used me… They said they were doing it for my own good.” Layla said and paused.Kendra rolled her eyes, smacked her lips and said,“ You know you are not making any sense right. What are to u talking about? Who used you? Look, you know you are getting me all worried and confused at the same time. Relay th

It will Damian gazed at his wife with a disturbed look, he knew he couldn't deny her anything.“ Is it about the video? I have been waiting all day for you to tell me but you didn't. I don't know what happened, to no secret.” Damian said he thought she was ready to tell him what had transpired between her and Justin the day before.Layla was shocked but at the same time relieved. At least neither Justin nor Kendra said a word to Damian yet, maybe this was the best time to tell him everything.However, she did not know what video Damian was talking about, so she kept her request aside and asked him, “ What video are you talking about?” It was Damian’s turn to look confused now. Wait, is she trying to say she has yet to see the video of her and Justin that was posted earlier? Then what's bothering her that is making her carry a long face all along?Maybe because the video was taken down a few minutes later after it was posted that's why she didn't see it. However, he made a mental not

“ Is everything Justin said true?” Damian asked.He already knew it was true but still wanted to hear it from her.At that moment, Layla felt like she was found guilty by the court of law and was waiting for her judgment. Going numb, she was surprised when his gaze softened and his voice gentler, “ You know that will believe anything you tell me right?”Layla’s heart ached and she couldn't stop the tears from falling down her eyes as she admitted,“ Yes, it's true and I'm sorry”To Damian, it felt like he had just lost a very important asset. The innocence he saw in her was replaced with something he couldn’t explain. His heart aches upon the realization that Justin used Layla to play and yes, he has succeeded. “ How could you do this to me?” Damian asked, pain lacing through his words, his eyes were red and glassy but he’d rather die than shed a tear.With pain still evident in his eyes and voice, he continued, “ How could you do this to me? I asked you why you changed your mind an
