Treat him like he doesn't exist

SOPHIA “Breathe darling. You look so pale, our competitors would think you're shivering in your pants out of fear” Damien joked while we remained in the car.We'd already arrived at our destination. I was watching our competitors get out of their cars through our tinted glass and I was secretly hoping I wouldn't run into Aiden.“Then I hope they think I'm scared. So they would assume I came unprepared…”“Only to be surprised when you win. Right?” Damien chuckled and I smiled.“Bingo” I confirmed his words. He took my hand to get my attention and I finally looked away from the window to face him.“You know you've got this right? You have no reason to be scared or intimidated” he whispered before kissing the back of my hand and I internally squirmed.“I know Damien. I'm not intimidated” I lied to his face because I did have a reason to be intimidated… not scared. I yelled at Aiden. I poured all my grievances toward him that day in his house. The house that was once ours and I had no i

I'll take that

SOPHIAMy smile vanished when I realized Aiden was speaking to Isabella. Of course, his possessive fiancé would call him at that moment.He kept glancing toward my direction after walking away to speak in a hushed tone. And I tried not to make eye contact with him until the call was over.Then he walked back to me and I faced him.“I'm sorry, Sophia. I know you're still shaken but Isabella wants me. So I have to…”“You've got to go right? Yeah I figured when she called. Thanks for saving me though” I cut him off. He stared at me for the next few seconds that passed. Then he nodded in response and gestured toward the fire extinguisher he dropped when I hugged him.“I'll take that and return it then. I've called the police and they'll be here to get him. You can take care of yourself right?” he asked me.I nodded before forcing a smile even though that foreign feeling I felt when I saw him and Isabella walk into the conference room had returned and gnawed at my inside.“Yeah. I'm fine,

Thanks!

SOPHIA As expected, I won the project for Locke's Empire and our competitors groaned and mumbled as they walked out of the conference room after accepting their loss.Only Aiden was unaffected but Isabella looked like she was about to explode. I bet she thought that showing up would guarantee their win. If only she knew who I was now.“Come with me, Sophia. We have to keep that fucker until the police arrives” Damien told me after we'd signed the agreement for the project. He didn't give me the chance to say a word. He only grabbed my hand by the wrist and pulled me out of the conference room, leaving Aiden and Isabella back there. “Show me the balcony” he demanded once we were a distance away so I led the way until we were at the spot where the all nerve wrecking incident happened to me and I was surprised to see the man was still knocked out.Was my kick that hard?My phone suddenly beeped and I pulled it out to see it was a message from Aiden. I quickly turned the other way so D

AIDEN“I told you she would like the gesture. Now give me my money” Clara demanded after we made a bet.I told her Sophia would hate it if I had food delivered to her but she insisted. She made sure I went through with it because she was sure it would be the opposite and I guess she was right. Women did know a lot more about themselves.Rolling my eyes at her, I sent her some money into her account and she squealed excitedly the moment she was credited. Then she threw her arms around my neck.“We should do this more often,” she chirped enthusiastically. “Not happening again” I clarified and she huffed in response.Then she let go of my neck and left for her room, leaving me to clean the dishes we used for our dinner by myself. Shaking my head, I got up and packed them all before heading to the sink. My phone beeped right then so I pulled it out of my pocket to look and it was Isabella.I frowned. What could she be doing out there so late? And most importantly, why did she come over
