“Did you know about the dinner proposed from the fords?”Damon asked, barging in on his dad. “And good day to you too”, Mr Robert said without wavering standing up to damon. “A very good day to you, dad, but that is not why I am here, do you know about the dinner or not?” He asked fiercely. “Yes I did”, I agreed with the Fords because they have been trying to partner with us for years and so I decided to give them a chance to propose a deal… “But dad, we both know the Ford’s and Zino’s won’t do well together. Their kind of business is not something we would want to get involved with”, he stated out clearly angry that his dad accepted to have dinner with the Ford’s without informing him first. “Damon enough!.. we’ve been on this for months and years and I honestly think you don’t want to partner with them due to your own personal issues.”, Mr Robert yelled. “The Ford will be good for business as my decision is final”, he said. “Well.. you seem to forget that I’m now the
“Hey Sophie! What’s up?”, Phil called out after picking up Sophie’s call. “Hey my fave! I’m good and you?”, she replied. “I’m literally your only cousin”, he laughed from the other side. “Dude I have other maternal cousins”, Sophie said knowing how he always liked to brag about being her only cousin. “But I’m the only one you talk to and your number 1 special cousin”, he mocked. “Okay, yes you are my favourite cousin and the only one I talk to. Are we good now? Can we finally have a normal conversation?”, she asked, knowing how playful he could be. “Yes princess, what’s up? You always forget to check up on your favourite cousin”, he said “Hey you are the one who never calls me. since you went to california to school, you totally forgot I exist”, she complained. “I’m sorry princess, so what’s really up? You need me to beat someone up?”, he jokingly asked. “I wanted to know if you’ve decided on moving back here to take over the company”, she muttered a little bit wo
“Good morning sir, your dad asked me to pass a message to you”, Daniel said, taking a good look at damon. “What message?”he asked, blatantly not caring at all. “He said to let you know that the dinner is going to be taking place this Sunday and you should be there”, Daniel reported as he was told. “Okay, you can go”, he replied. “Ok sir”, Daniel answered, taking his leave. Something is definitely up with the boss, he’s been absent minded lately and seems to be very down, like his old self. He doesn’t have the right to make such decisions by himself just because he’s the one that built this company. I am also a part of the company now and a part of its constant growth. I don’t have an issue with Brooke's or the Fords, I just don’t want to be reminded of my mom every single minute. “Good morning sir”, I greeted after stepping in. “Morning”, he muttered lazily. “Daniel said to come in without knocking that you needed me urgently.”, I stated why I came in without kno
“Are you fucking blind!”Damon yelled, stepping down from his car as a stranger hit his car. “I’m sorry, it was quite dark and I didn’t see clearly ”, he excused himself. “Really? Everywhere is fucking lit up”, damon said entering his car and zoomed off. He was quite nervous about the dinner party but he promised to let go and forgive himself so he wasn’t planning on turning this down now. “What’s that guy’s problem? I obviously didn’t see him coming and besides it’s a little dark at this corner”, he complained after Damon just zoomed off without asking for anything. “He was driving one of the most expensive cars, so I’m sure he can handle it”, he concluded and got into his car as he was still finding it a little bit hard to locate the exact house he would be having dinner tonight. ~The dinner party~“Mr Robert! You have a lovely house”, Mr Brooke said with a smile stretching out his hands to him for a handshake. “Thank you so much. Please sit”, Mr Robert said after the hand
~Phil’s pov~ How could that arrogant rich dude talk to my cousin in such a way. And he’s the fucking Damon! The one my cousin has been crushing on for years and refuses to move on from. Does he think he’s so special that he had the audacity to talk about her like that? I knew it was definitely about a boy, I just didn’t know the boy was that long time crush she had. And now I have to partner with this dude and we are the one in need of their help for business to boom. “What did Damon say at the dinner? I am hoping I didn’t hear him well, you should have a better explanation right?”Mr Brooke barked at Sophie immediately as they got home.“Dad, Let’s talk in the morning”, Sophie said angrily as she walked up the stairs heading to her room. “The dinner was going fine one minute and then it all went haywire”, Sophie cried to herself. “Come down here now! I’m talking to you”, he yelled at her angrily. “How could my own Precious daughter embarrass me like that today”, he t
~Monday morning~ “Hey Naomi! Good morning, How was your weekend?”Daniel asked as we started another new week on a happy note. “Morning, it was good and you?”, I replied with a smile. “Have you gotten familiar with New York City now?”, he asked, remembering where I was from and my complaints of not knowing anywhere. “Hmm not really, I haven’t gotten a chance to come out and enjoy the nice views”, I excused myself. I haven’t had the chance because I had other things to think of … like damon. He’s my project so I obviously have to quickly come out with a very good plan and try not to fall for him, he only gets to fall for me and not the other way round. “Why!”, Daniel yelled. “You have had many weekends alone,you could have stepped out or asked me to come take you round”, he said “Nah it’s cool, there’s many more weekends”, I said. I would have loved to go with Daniel but I don’t want to get too close to any boy, I wouldn’t want to give myself so easily to Damon. I shouldn’t
“What do you mean why is she here? Is there anywhere else my secretary should be?”, Damon asked angrily.“She shouldn’t be here, not in New York”, he yelled, still very shocked to see Naomi. “You should have knocked or waited till you got a reply”, Damon added, still angry. He thought he had a chance to stare at Naomi for a long while but this dude just had to come in and disturb their peace together. “I was there for a while and besides she’s your secretary right? Why is she indoors? And with you?”Phil asked as his mood changed gradually and he became a little sad seeing them indoors together and it seemed Damon was enjoying looking at her as his eyes were glued to her neck when he stepped in. Seeing Naomi here was a very big shock to him and it was really heartbreaking that she was here alone with this arrogant dude. “What’s your business with my secretary? It seems you know her but you don’t get the right to badge in and ask stupid questions about my secretary”, he said annoye
“You do know you have a lot of explanations to do, so start now I’ll like to know what’s going on”, Phil said coming out of Damon’s office in a hurry “Tell me why you left without any explanation” Phil asked, shunning that little voice in his head that told him to be calm about this and not cause any issue. “You clearly know what I’m talking about,don’t play me for a fool and be straight with me because I am damn serious!”, he said gazing into my eyes. “I told you I was just tired or so, see! I can’t even recall what really happened, can we just leave this issue and forget about it”, I feigned ignorance as I tried to find every possible means to send him away. “Why are you acting this way? I still do not understand what I did wrong and I deserve an explanation”, he demanded. “I don’t think there will be any need for that, I’m just very okay like this and I only want to focus on my life right now and not get distracted by anyone”, I defended “So there’s no one in your life rig
