Audrey cried silently with her head bowed, she had no idea why she isn't signing the papers, obviously, Charles doesn't want her anymore and he has moved on so why isn't she signing them?She slowly picked up the papers and sniffed, she picked up the pen then took in a deep breath, wiped her tears and signed the papers, she burst into another round of tears immediately.It wouldn't hurt so bad if she wasn't the reason for their divorce, she couldn't give him a child and he got tired of her and found someone who could give him one.She put the papers back in the brown file and stood up, she already lost her appetite, so she got to the living room and placed the file on the couch, she wasn't feeling too good again so she decided to go to her room. She got to her room and sighed, she fought every urge to cry as she thought about how happy Charles will be now. The door to her room suddenly opened and Damien barged in holding the brown file, Audrey flinched and her eyes widen in shock.He
“A detective?” Audrey yelled and Damien gave her a stern look.“When the cops get here, all I need you to do is act calm.” He said and sat next to her, he turned to Clyde and gave him a questioning look.“Yeah, have got it covered.” Clyde replied and sat at Damien’s desk, the door opened and the cops walked in with Damien’s guards behind them.Audrey whimpered and Damien hurriedly held her hand, he gave it a squeeze and she tried her best to stay calm.“What now Beck?” Damien asked calmly referring to a man dressed in a suit among the cops.“We got a warrant to search this warehouse, Mr Robbin.” He replied and Damien nodded.“Proceed.” He said and the cops entered the room Damien walked out from earlier covered in blood.Audrey turned to him and he gave her an assuring look, the man in suit noticed Audrey and he walked towards them.“Hello, ma’am.” He called and Audrey turned to him with a nervous smile.“Hi... Hi.” She stammered and he noticed her hands were locked with Damien’s.“I
Audrey remained on the spot as she stared at the man groaning in pain, tears streamed down her eyes as guilt are her up, Clyde made a phone call and in less than a minute, some men walked in and carried the chauffeur out of the house.Clyde stood up and walked to Audrey who still kept crying on a spot.“Audrey.” He called and she turned to him in tears.“I know Damien can be a jerk and can be annoying but if he tells you not to do something, I think it's best if you listen to him, Derek and Damien don't get along at all, hanging out with him are going to make things hard for you.” Clyde explained and Audrey sniffed, she nodded and exhaled.“Is... Is the chauffeur going to be okay?” She asked and Clyde nodded in response.“Did he really have to do that?” She asked as tears welled up in her eyes again.“He just gave you a warning, he doesn't bluff.” “I know that now.” She scoffed and the tears rolled down her cheeks.“You had fun with Derek?” He asked and she didn't give him a response
“Get off me.” Damien warmed without hugging her back as she giggled.“I mean it Chloe, get off me.” He repeated and she pulled away from him, she smiled at Damien and he rolled his eyes at her, Audrey kept watching them and wondered how she is suddenly invisible. “So, who is she?” Chloe asked and turned to Audrey, she placed her arm over Damien’s shoulder and it somehow made Audrey annoyed. Why does she get to touch Damien that way and she doesn't?“And why is she glaring at me that way?” Chloe added and Audrey's lips parted slightly, she had no idea she was glaring at her.“I’m sorry, I didn't mean that. Excuse me.” Audrey said and headed towards the stairs.“Who is she?” Chloe asked and Damien sighed.“She is not important.” He replied and Audrey froze, she turned to both of them and stared at Damien with shock on her face. “Are you sure? She seems hurt by your words.” Chloe chuckled and Damien looked away, Audrey exhaled and rushed up the stairs. What the hell was she thinking?
“Nice to meet you too.” Audrey responded with a smile, she was really getting worked up for nothing. That explains why she could touch him freely without him stopping her.“I am really sorry I caused you to worry.”“It's fine.” Audrey replied and Damien held her free hand under the table, he creased it and she looked at him with a questioning look but he kept a straight face.“You are important, Damien hasn't been this close to a girl.” “Yeah,” Audrey muttered and withdrew her hand from his, Chloe’s phone beeped and she sighed. “I have to go, it was really nice meeting you, I will see you soon.” She rushed her words and walked out of the dining.“Bye.” Audrey called after her and waved.“She is gone now, you can stop pretending to care.” Audrey muttered and moved slightly away from him, Damien rolled his eyes and moved closer to her.“Why do you think I was pretending to care?”“Because you are still mad at me.”“I am not.” He said and she looked at him.“Really?”“Yes, and I won't
“And you suck at making decisions.” Chloe muttered and shook her head. “Why don't you just go and dance with her? It's better than staring at her.” “I don't do such.” He replied and Chloe sighed.“All part of the bad decisions.” She said and pat his shoulder before walking away, Damien watched Clyde dance happily with his wife and he knew she was having fun.He wondered why she is not always having fun around him like this.Is he too mean to her? He found himself moving closer to her and they both stop dancing as they saw him, Clyde knew Damien was here to take his wife so he smiled at Audrey and walked away. “Hey.” Audrey called with a smile as he held her hand.“Hey.” He replied and he noticed her mood was suddenly down.“Teach me how to dance.”“Oh, to do that, I have to touch you and... “ Audrey trailed off as he grabbed her waist and placed her free hand on his chest. “Oh, okay.” Audrey said nervously and placed her hand on his shoulder, they both started to move back and fo
“Hey, it's okay. Stop crying.” Damien whispered as he creased her hair and she held onto him tightly, he found it suspicious she could be this emotional because of a fall but he decided not to think about it.“Are you okay?” He asked and she sniffed.“Yeah.” She muttered and pulled away, she wiped her tears and forced a smile.“Do you need anything?” He asked and she shook her head in response. “Do you want to go home?”“Can we leave now?” She asked and Damien nodded.“Yeah, if that’s what you want.” “It's fine, we can still stay for a while.” She said and bit her lip, Damien stared at her lips and felt it tempting, he fought the urge to kiss her.Audrey noticed his eyes on her lips and she smiled feeling embarrassed, Damien looked at her and held her hand, he pulled her gently with him till they got back to the party.Damien saw his sister sitting at a table and he walked to her with Audrey, Chloe smiled happily seeing Audrey and she smiled back. “Hey, are you okay? You look like
“Stop crying already.” Damien whispered as he stroked her hair, she nodded in his arms and sniffed.“What happened to you? Who hurt you that way?” She asked as she pulled away from the hug.“It's a long story and I don't want to talk about it, maybe some other time.” He replied and she nodded, she wiped her tears and tried to smile.“Does your body hurt?” Damien asked and she raised a brow in confusion.“Huh?”“Does your body hurt from the fall at the party?” He asked.“Oh.” She gasped when she realized what he meant, she totally forgot about that lie.“I am fine now, I am not hurting anywhere.” ‘Except your heart.’ Her subconscious added and she bit her lip. Damien found the act tempting and he groaned a little.“Can you not do that?” He asked wrapping his arms around her waist.“Do what? Bite my lip?” Audrey asked and he nodded.“Why?” She chuckled and he placed his hand on her cheek, he creased in and Audrey closed her eyes enjoying how soft his palm was against her skin.“It is d
