Semua Bab A Deal With The Billionaire CEO: Bab 141 - Bab 150

Damien 141.I waited for my wife in the dark. I had sent the maids home immediately after Natalia and Camilla left my home. I needed to be alone so I could ruminate on what to do. I was angry all through the day because Isabella had disobeyed me.How could she not see that I was trying my best to protect her? I had to do something about Emilio telling her things that she did not need to know. She had also been right about Vito. It disgusted me to refer to him as my father but he had to go.He had put the life of my wife under threat for the third time and he had to pay with his life. However, with the current development happening at the company, it will be too hard to get to Vito without garnering suspicion.It was fully dark before Isabella came back but my anger had dissipated into a sad acceptance. I heard her first before I saw her. I had been meaning to call someone to fix the creaking door that led to the house but I never really made time for the

Damien 143.We slept in separate rooms for the first time. I knew that couples had their disputes and I have had my fair share of them but with Isabella, this fight was different. It hurt when she looked me in the eye and told me she had no trust for me again.It seemed like ever since I was called upon to lead Renaissance, it had affected my relationship with Isabella greatly. A string of unfortunate events took place when I woke up this morning.The first one came in form of a call."They are transferring me, Damien," Michael said as soon as I answered the phone. I was still in the throes of slumber when my phone rang."What?""I have been pulled off the case," He said. "It seemed like I was too close to home," He added.Strings were being pulled to stop him from asking questions and revealing heavily kept secrets of the company. There was only one person who came to mind the more that I thought about it. Camilla Valdez."It seems like this is the end of t

Damien 145.After numerous camera shots and fake smiles with fake compliments, I was finally able to have a seat with the senator. He seemed to be in a good mood as he joined me on the table that had been set up for the both of us."It's the launching of a new restaurant and as part of the campaign process, Senator Kelly is doing the honor of launching the place," Camilla had filled me in with the details."It still does not explain why I am supposed to be present," I told her as the SUV moved through the traffic."Renaissance is sponsoring his second term in the office and the restaurant is part of Renaissance. We are branching out to the world of cuisine," Camilla replied.My phone buzzed with a message and I looked at it."You sent Natalia to my place knowing fully well that I was not home," I said to her."I wanted her to get along with your wife," Camilla said with a playful shrug. I had no idea what she was up to.I had sent a quick messages my mom. I did not trust Natalia and I

Damien 147.Everything was a painful blur as I had lost count of how many hands I had shaken today."Your vote counts, so vote Kelly so you can count for something great!" One of the campaign managers said with earnest conviction. It was sad to watch."When is this going to be over?" I asked with gritted teeth as I looked around."Bored?" Camilla asked."Out of my mind," I replied."This is mostly what you will be doing, Damien," She said."Attending parties filled with old bored people with too much time and money," I said."Meeting important people who have the power to bring about real change," Camilla."You sound just like them," I said to her. She merely shrugged."How do you like it so far?" Senator Kelly Holland said as he looked around with pride."A lot of people," I said."Yes, and they all came out to see just me," Kelly beamed."This is not really my scene if I am being honest," I told the senator."It was not mine either until I found myself here," He replied with a shrug

Chapter 149: Unraveling Truth~DamienThe weight of uncertainty hung heavy in the air as I sat alone in my study, the soft glow of the desk lamp casting eerie shadows across the room. My mind was a whirlwind of conflicting thoughts and emotions, each one vying for dominance as I tried to make sense of the chaos that surrounded me.Ever since Natalia's unexpected visit earlier today, I couldn't shake the feeling that something was terribly wrong. Her cryptic warnings and veiled threats had left me on edge, a sense of foreboding gnawing at the edges of my consciousness.But it wasn't just Natalia's ominous words that troubled me. It was the nagging suspicion that there were secrets lurking just beneath the surface of my seemingly perfect life, secrets that threatened to unravel everything I held dear.As I sat lost in thought, the sound of approaching footsteps broke the silence, pulling me from my reverie. With a sense of trepidation, I rose from my seat and made my way to the door, my
