Chapter 45
He came out half naked with his towel around his waist " Diane?...why are you here?" He looked surprised and a little disappointed
" What did I tell you Seraphine?" Diane said to me as she laughed out loud.
Damien looked at me and walked into the closet embarrassed.
" What was he thinking?" I giggled
" Diane I don't know if I should tell Damien about this,not now when father is thinking of what to do with him.....what if father finds out first????" I said to Diane with worry and lots of 'what ifs' going on in my mind.
" What if..."
" What if nothing happens Seraphine. What if it'll go well?" Diane said almost immediately to rid my worries.
" All I can think of is for Damien to show up but still keep his identity anonymous from the public. But the question is will the company agree? and will Damien himself agree to this?"
As Diane said that I instantly thought of the plan I had in mind
" How about this? Since I'm good with things pertaining to running a business and I've seen what Damien does at work,why don't I impersonate for a while while he goes on painting. He will only have to come around the office when he's needed. I can even table the things he needs to do at home "
" Oh my.... you're a genius sister in law,that sounds like a perfect plan. We just have to get Damien to agree with it"
" Agree with what? " Damien asked coming out of the closet and dabbing his wet hair with a towel.
" I'll leave you to it" Diane said as she stood up to leave.
" uhmm...Diane??" I called out to her as she closed the door behind her. I felt cornered.
" What's going on with you two?" Damien asked again this time applying lotion to his body.
I just smiled at him with my brain all thinking of what to do and how to tell him all I've discussed with Diane, I stood up to
get Damien's breakfast. For a while before we left for the vacation,I've been the one making Damien's breakfast. I figured out he loves when I cook or make anything for him even up to a common coffee, he doesn't take the ones made by the maid except mine.
I got the kitchen and decided to make him oatmeal with berries on it. In no time I was done and I head back to the room with the food and a glass of water because he prefers having his breakfast in our room.
When I got in the room he was almost done dressing up,he was putting on his shoes. The scent of his cologne filled the room,it was exquisite.
" I'll use your cologne if they weren't made for men alone" I said jokingly and placed the food on the table. He was happy as soon as he saw the food
" Thank you" He said.
I sat on the couch opposite him and watched as he ate,when he was done I took a napkin to clean some of the oats on his lips.
" How about we move out to my house next week?, I don't know if father will agree to it yet "
"I love the idea!" I replied elated
" I know you will" He replied and got up to leave for work,
" Oh....I'll be late if I don't get going " he said after taking a look at the time on his wristwatch and then he rushed to the door but turned back and walked up to me and kissed my forehead.
" Have a nice day " He said as he hurried out .
I smiled all to my self weirdly as he left ,
" He's cute " I said.
" Should I visit him at the office?" I wondered. " What would I say if he asks about why I came?" I thought again
"Well.... It's normal for his wife to visit him at his office,and I've not been able to go ever since got paired "
" Wait a minute..... it'll be our first year anniversary soon" I suddenly remembered and checked the calendar and the date fell on a day in the upcoming week .Thinking about moving to our own house and celebrating our first year anniversary just made me have this
' it's all perfect' feeling and I wouldn't stop grinning.
I concluded on visiting Damien at work since I'll be home alone for the day,mother and Diane went to the stall and the mayor forbade me from going there .
I went into the washroom,had my bathe after which i dressed up. I choose to wear a body flattering corporate dress, I had my hair in light waves,wore statement earrings and applied a light makeup and finally wore my signature perfume .
" If there's been anyone bad mouthing my beauty, now this will shut them up ". I knew I was beautiful in fact,I'm one of the very beautiful maidens in ivy hills, I had numerous guys crushing on me ever since high school but they couldn't walk up to me because of the tradition.
After wearing my heels I carried my bag and left the room.
While the driver drove me,I kept imagining how surprised Damien would look and I myself dared to go to meet him because the mayor went on a quick trip .
After some minutes drive we eventually got to his office and I took my sunglasses from my bag and put it on before graciously alighting from the car. I stood in front of the company to grasp its beauty,it is the only company in ivy hills and one of the most sorted after furniture companies around as well. The Daniels furniture is a staple in any house of an elite not only in ivy hills but in the city as well,I got to know this when we traveled for vacation.
Damien is the CEO of the company of course. Right from the entrance of the company I attracted both male and female attention. Comment like " Oh my God who is this goddess" and
" How come she's so beautiful " we're flying in the air.
After asking questions from the driver earlier I got to know Damien's office. I got to the top floor where his office was but the secretary wouldn't allow me in without a prior appointment and then I removed my sunglasses and said
" I'm his wife,you can confirm from him when I enter "
