All Chapters of The Voss's undoing: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Mum was feeling better now, I got a huge shock when I got that call from the hospital telling me she was in need of surgery.At the airport I'd wanted to call Eva but decided against it, I didn't want to distract her from her work in Vegas, so I called Matt, I knew he couldn't do much since he was a doctor in New York but I called him anyways, I needed to talk to someone.I took a flight down to Seattle and stayed with mum till she recovered. My trip in Ibiza was cut short but my vacation was still on, so I used it up in Seattle. Eva and Matt visited when they were free.It had been an agonizing period for me, waiting for mum to recover and waiting for Damian's call.What if he decided that he didn't want to call me again, that it was all useless maybe I wasn't worth it after all, maybe it was a holiday thing and he found another woman there in Ibiza and was taking her to London with him."Urgh! Get a life Cassie." I try to snap myself out of it.Eva and I hadn't spoken much about wha

A pained look crosses his face or maybe it was just my brain doing its own thing."You're drunk Cass, we can't have a normal conversation like this, get some sleep." he uses the quilt to cover me properly."Are you leaving?" I pry again."No Cass, I'm right here," he smiles but it doesn't reach his eyes. "I'm not going anywhere." he kisses my forehead and I let sleep engulf me.*****I wake without a little headache. This wasn't my bed, I'm in the parlor, then I see Matt Sitting beside me, it hits me all at once, everything that happened last night till early this morning. My conversations with him, the crying..."Urgh!" I place my hands on my head, "Stupid Cassie." I whisper.Matt stirs awake and looks at me with concern."How are you feeling this morning, sleepy head." he reaches out trying to pull strands of my hair out of my face but it's a futile effort."A lot better, thank you for the hydration." I smile softly. "And I'm so...""What time is it? Where is my phone?" I become hys

We walk towards the entrance of Grand Gulf Astoria Hotel, it stood in the heart of Manhattan, all polished marble and crystal chandelier, this place screamed wealth. The event my company was hired to organize could change everything for us.I still vividly remember Katherine's words when she handed this project to me."Don't mess this up Cassie, Voss Global Holdings is one of the biggest clients we've had in a while. Do this right, and you'll have your own department in less than a year."No pressure, right?I'm flipping through my notes on my ipad now. Sebastian seemed like a chill guy but he still was one of my biggest clients and I need to deliver excellently, Sara is beside observing too. She was too stunned when she saw me walk in with Sebastian but refrained from asking any questions yet.We move through the ballroom while I'm discussing the layouts, the floral concepts, guest flow and lighting."I think the stage should be there.""Okay.""And we'll need to redo the seating ar

"You're thinking too hard." he offered."No, I'm working." I say little forcefully.He moves his head to the side, studying me intently."You know normal clients actually attend their own meetings." I say unable to keep my mouth shut any longer. But this only made him grin widely."Normal billionaires, yes." he remarks."Billionaires."He flashes me a charming smile."Sebastian"Cassie." he looks like his in good spirits."Anyways let's have lunch and discuss further, all these are boring, am I right?"I shake my head and chuckle, "You are impossible." I mutter."No, bella," he smiled "Impossible is my friend, Damian Voss.""Mr Voss is your friend." the name Damian seemed to make my heart skip beat."Mhm" he keeps smiling and giving me that 'I know something you don't know' look."You've spoken about him before, what's he like?" I ask without giving it a second thought.He seems all too glad to answer this, "He's very annoying.""But you seem fond of him." I pry."I tolerate him." he

I wake before my alarm goes off, laying in my bed staring at the ceiling of my apartment. For some reason I couldn't explain my stomach felt tight. It was just another client meeting, I have presented to executives before, pitched million dollars events, this shouldn't be any different.I shake away all thoughts as I get up from my bed. Today matters a lot and I don't need nerves getting the better part of me.I arrive by eight-thirty at Voss Global Holdings and get into the elevator. The elevator door opens onto the executive floor of Voss Global Holdings.The space was understated rather than flashy, Italian marble, warm walnut panels, abstract art, and floor to ceiling windows framing Manhattan.Every detail was amazing, intentional. I walk up to a front desk officer."Hi, Good morning, I'm Miss Adams from Deluxa celebration company." she greets me with a warm smile and points me towards the executive room.I thank her and head toward the executive boardroom, clutching my presentat
