Damien, who was already out of the car, went around to her side of the door and stood."Oh, I just thought it would be nice to take a break and grab a cup of coffee." Damien replied with a friendly smile."Plus, I wanted to get to know you a little better. We've been working and living together for a while now, but there's always more to learn about each other, right?" He said this as he reached for the car's door handle.Aella chuckled softly, appreciating Damien's curiosity. "You're right. It's good to take some time to connect outside of work. So, what do you want to know? Ask me anything."“Ah, I wouldn't do that just outside here.” Damien replied as he extended his hand out for her to hold on to.As she came out of the car, Damien locked the car, and they entered the café.As they both entered, the manager saw Damien with his new beautiful wife, and he hurriedly came down to welcome them both.“You are welcome, sir.

The next morning, Aella woke up feeling refreshed and ready to start the day. She stretched her arms and yawned, feeling the warmth of the sunlight streaming through the window. She got out of bed and went inside the bathroom to brush her teeth, bathe, and get ready to go to the office.Meanwhile,Damien, who was still fast asleep with a contented smile on his face, woke up a bit after Aella was almost done bathing, and a lazy Damien who had a meeting was still in bed dreaming.(With a mischievous grin, Aella tiptoed over to Damien's bed and gently shook his shoulder. "Wake up, sleepyhead! (It's's brand new day.)Damien stirred, slowly opening his eyes and blinking away the sleep. "Mmm, what time is it?" he mumbled, his voice still laced with drowsiness, not realizing that she was in the room until after the drowsiness in his eyes had completely cleared up.Damein’s eyes widened as he realized she wasn’t in his room. He quickly jumped out of bed and went inside the bathroom. Looking at

The next morning, Maggie woke up really quick, and early in the morning, she went straight to the kitchen, where Mike was doing the dishes.“Good morning, ma'am," Mike greeted Maggie as she came down still in her plays.“Morning! Uh, what can I help you with?” She asked nicely.“No! Ma'am, you can just go back to your room; I do all the work here, "Mike proclaimed as he put his head down to continue what he was doing before she came down.Maggie, trying to play the good guy, barged in and started cutting off the vegetables.

Maggie began faking tears as she came closer to Aella.“Aella, why are you doing this to me? I was just trying to revive some of the memories and time we shared, Maggie said amidst tears.“Revive huh! Revive, you say! Well, Ms. Maggie, especially for your own humble information. You left us first; it's been twelve long years without you or your fake love, your own son... Collins was crying out to you. He was crying his eyes out, but what did you do? You took those rich pricks hands and left us without looking back.”“Now! You suddenly appear, and you dare try asserting your right over me and this house, Aella growled angrily in sobs.Damien, who was on the stairs a minute ago, has arrived downstairs and is already at the diner.“Aella, I know you feel bad because she left and wasn't there for you, but everybody in this life makes mistakes. I have said this same thing to you back in the company. I know you are mad at her, Aella, but you have to be calm in this situation and solve thi

As she got to the kitchen, Mike was already done with the kitchen work and had already made dinner for them.Mike noticed that she was standing out of the door, watching from afar.

Damien stood still, shocked to see how Maggie could confidently walk to his room, but still cut off the silence with a clearing of the throat.“Uhm.. uhm.. Yes mother! I'll come down in a jiffy, Damien said as he awaited her exit from his room.Maggei smiled, gave a three-sixth turn, and walked out of the room.Damien quickly wore his shirt and comfortable pants and went downstairs to meet her up.Aella, who was thinking of a way to clear the mess she's in, finally broke out of her deep thoughts and went inside the bathroom to freshen up, while on the other hand, Damien has arrived at the dining area.Maggie quickly stood up to adjust the chair for Damien, but Damien stopped her immediately as he said he would be able to do that alone by himself.As he sat down, she started serving him lunch.

Aella sat under an oak tree, whipping her eyes out. She felt immense pain from all the incidents that had occurred recently in her life.Damien kept calling out to her, but with no response, he left the place, thinking she might not be there as he had been calling out her name; had she been there, he could have found her.Damien went further to look for her in other nearby places, though she didn't have any friends there.Meanwhile, back in the garden, Aella was not able to get a grip on herself; she kept crying. She clearly heard Damien calling out to her, but she ignored him intentionally in order to not meet up with him because she thought he was just using her, oblivious to what Damien was thinking.Damien, who was almost fifty feet apart from where she was, turned around with a long face, thinking that he might be blamed if she got lost or if anything happened to her. He immediately returned to the same place where he had called out her name. He looked around a bit and sighted a

Mr. Cameron answered with a "yes, sir” and hung up as he inhaled and exhaled at the same time.“Oh, Damien! Mr. Damien Sullivan, your days off happiness will soon be over," Mr. Cameron said, dropping the phone on the couch.*********Meanwhile, Damien and Aella finished off the ice cream and headed back home.Maggie, who was still at home unbothered by whatever situation Aella could be in, sat on the couch and turned on the TV to watch Netflix, completely oblivious to Damien and Aella’s arrival at the mansion's gate.They both entered inside as the gate guard opened the door.Maggie, who was completely immersed in the intensity of the movie she was watching, heard some indistinct chatter coming from the door, quickly turned off the TV, and went straight to the door with a long face, putting up a pretend tear play on her face.As they both entered, Maggie hurriedly went to hug Aella, despite knowing that Aella wouldn't allow her to hug her. It turns out it's just one of her triangle pl

Aella walked to the door and opened it to take the breakfast, oblivious to the person standing outside the door.“You! Why is it you? I thought Mike was standing here." Aella asked as she furrowed her eyebrows in discomfort.“Aella! I am your mother; I should be the one doing all of this.” Maggie muttered as her voice trembled.Aella is now utterly pissed by her words—those exact words she doesn't like hearing, and that too coming from the mouth of a deserter like her. She angrily took the food and ordered Maggie to leave.Maggie wasn't sad at all, even for a moment. She knew that was part of her plan—to make sure Aella wasn't conscious for her to be able to put her plan into action.“I am sorry, Aella, but I had to do that. I laced your food with sleeping pills so you can have a good night's sleep, my love,while I take over this entire fortune all to myself," Maggie whispered to herself as she declared her real ulterior motive while she went back to her room to get some real skimpy
