Chapter 8

" We've been dating for one and a half years now" Damien answered coming to my side and I looked at him in horror.

" How did you meet her?".

" I met her at a restaurant without knowing she was my employee at that time but I later found out" he said looking down at me in adoration which I knew was fake" She is too beautiful to ignore. So when I saw her again in my company, we talked and from there the love blossomed" He shrugged.

" Mr Knight this is the first time we have seen  you smile and even talked to the press. And we can all understand that she is special but how special is she to you?".

" She is very very special to me" he said looking down at me" As you can see my fiancée is a little shy in front of cameras, so do take a few pictures and leave. Thank you".

Few pictures was an understatement they took million of pictures and the light from the camera started affecting my eyes to the point it almost made me blind. When Damien released the press were not willing to go anywhere they were forcefully ushered out.

After they were finally gone I tried looking for the right word to say but I was blank. I opened my mouth to say something " A-re- w-h-at" But i stuttered again.

" You need some whisky?" Damien asked while  stretching the whisky glass in his hand towards me with a smirk on his face making the anger in me start to boil at a tremendous rate.

"Are you fucking mad?" I yelled " What the fuck is wrong with you, you asshole" I asked in anger with my eyes shooting arrows at him.

" You-" I yelled and charged towards him " I have been trying to hold the urge to kill you but today I have reached my fucking limit, I will fucking kill you" I raised my hand to punch him across the face but before I could, he grabbed my hand and pulled me closer to him.

"You need to calm down jess" He leaned into me whispering in my ears "if you continue your tantrums I will make sure you do not have a job for the rest of your life and you really shouldn't argue with me" He pulled back from me giving me a sadistic smile.

" How dare you threaten me with all the trouble you have caused?" I said gasping.

" I told you when I let you go that there would be consequences"

" How can you do this to that poor woman, I wonder how she might be feeling now".

"Which woman?" He asked with a confused look

" Your fiancée of course"

"I really don't know why you are feeling for yourself" he said with amusement sparkling in his eyes.

"No I'm not talking about myself, I'm talking about Elizabeth"

"Ohhh her, she was never my fiancée in the first place it was my mother that chose her for me but I don't want her" he said nonchalantly.

" So?, she is still your fiancée"

" Well I can and will choose my fiancée myself , not my mother not anybody. And I choose you to be my fiancée".

" Did you maybe lose a screw  in your brain, because you obviously dont what you are talking about" .

Damien interrupted me before I could say another word " Can we not have this conversation here? Let's just take it somewhere else, so many people are already looking".

" Well I think it's better they continue looking, so that they can discover that you are lying and deceiving them"

Damien laughed " Well I don't think I deceived anyone, I just merely wanted them to know my fiancée, or did I do something wrong by doing that?" Before I could find a good response to say to him he interrupted me again" And if you think of exposing me , you wouldn't like the consequences especially when it comes down to that chief of yours who helped you disobey me and it will be all your fault".

"Bastard, I hate you so much" I cursed at him.

" Good, you can hate me all you want" Dakien smiled"Now that you have seemed to agree to be my fiancée you can go and have as much fun as you want" He said with a dissmissive wave before going to join his group.

I stayed at that spot, boiling with violent anger. Because I knew if I moved I would have brought more than enough consequences on my self and my department.

" What the fuck just happened Jess?" Liam approached me with alexia tailing behind him.

" That constipated bastard had the effrontery to kiss me".

" We all saw that part" Liam said giving me a pointed look.

" Why the hell did he introduce you as his fiancée?"

" I don't know but what I know is that I want to strangle the living daylight out of him" I said through gritted teeth " I want to throw every single table here at that bastard".

" I think there is another lady who wants to do the same to you" Liam turned his head towards the stage and I whirled around to see   Elizabeth looking as if she was about to remove my head from my body.

" Well it's not as if I did anything, he is at fault here he was the one that kissed me" I complained.

" She obviously think you seduced him"

"Mee, why would I think of seducing that bastard?" I scoffed in disbelief.

" Well I think I have a long list, first and foremost he is drop dead handsome, hot, rich-"

"That's really not the point here alexia" I whined.

" Well I know but..."

" Can you just stop talking alexia" I said gripping unto my head " Are you guys not supposed to be helping me look for a solution to this mess".

" Well the only option we have now is either taking him to court or telling the truth to the press" Liam suggested.

" She will obviously win if she takes DAMIEN KNIGHT to court" alexia said sarcastically.

" The second option would have been the most sensible one to do but Damien said if I do that I will not only be jobless for life but chief we also face the consequences".

That shut them up immediately "What" I asked in confusion.

" Well that is cruel but jess you have to take that threat seriously because Mr. Knight has enough power and connection to make that happen"alexia said

"And you will also say bye bye to all your extraordinary dreams forever".Liam said nodding his head.
