Chapter 85_ Punished
Olivia was the first to break away from the staring competition between her and Damien, she was knew instantly what Bianca just did..
She faced Kelvin ready to speak but Damien spoke first..
“Yes.. so get well soon so you won’t miss that big day”
She stood up to her feet with a forced smile on her face..
“I’ll like to speak to you please.. in private”

Once they were out of the ward, Olivia narrowed her eyes at him, her hands went underneath her bossom..
“I haven’t said yes to the engagement and now we are getting married? is that how desperate you are to get me?”
Damien took a glance around the empty hallway, his arm suddenly snaked around her slender waist, he pulled her closer to himself in one breath..
“What are you-
“Shhh.. don’t try to act all innocent Olivia.. I know deep down you also want to see Kelvin happy and fulfill his wishes which includes accepting me into your life”
She blinked back twice pulling her gaze off his face, she could feel the hardness of his chest just underneath her palm.. the closeness they shared caused some weird sensation in her body..
“I have no idea of what you’re talking about..”
A devilish grin appeared at the corner of his lips, his arm slowly left her waist, he held her left hand up a bit where the ring was still visible..
“So you still have no time to take it off? or your ego is just stopping you from saying yes to our relationship.. we can start from somewhere at least just for Kelvin’s sake if you feel that I’m asking too much”
Olivia retracted her arm from his hold, she pushed a few strands of hair behind her ears trying to hide her embarrassment..
“I told you earlier that it was stuck..” she argued..
Damien raised his hand in a surrender gesture, his face turned serious..
“But honestly Olivia.. I really want to be a part of yours and Kelvin’s life.. fine how about we do this?.. we’ll pretend to be engaged just in front of Kelvin and our families for two weeks.. and if then you think nothing can work out between us, then I’ll stop bothering you”
Olivia’s breath fell and rose in calm but steady gasps, she weighed the pros and cons of his words and felt nothing to be scared of..
Infact Damien was the one who would be at the losing side, she stretched forth her hand to him with a sly smirk on her lips..
“Deal!”

After he left the hospital, Damien’s earlier calm demeanor changed into a ferocious one, he had to teach two people some manners..
Just as he predicted, he spotted Rihanna’s car parked in the drive way, she had the guts to step into his family’s home after what she did?!
Anita was busy flipping through a magazine with Aldrin, their giggles and laughs filled the large living room..
Suddenly, a firm footstep approached the room, they snapped their heads to the direction of the footsteps..
Anita beamed “Damien-
And for once in her life, she was ignored by him, he walked past them heading up the stairs like they weren’t even there..
Her face fell “Damien didn’t say anything to me.. he’s grown up so much to ignore his own mother.. I’m very sure he hates me”
Aldrin arched a brow listening to her sobs, she pounded his chest with every word she uttered..

Startled by the sudden bang of their door, Alexa and Rihanna sat up from the bed in surprise and shock..
“Big bro you-
“Keep quiet!” he bellowed, his hands turned into fists by his side, they both had no idea how lucky they were to be ladies at the moment..
If looks could kill, Alexa and Rihanna would have been long gone..
A pang of anger crossed Damien’s face as he met Rihanna’s flirty smile, the fool still thought that she had a chance with him..
But to her dismay, he grabbed her chin almost crushing it with his strong hand..
“You still dare to smile after what you’ve done?!”
She fell back on the bed staring at Damien like he had grown a horn on his head..
Alexa had a look of horror on her face, he was visibly upset, it meant that he must have known something..
“Just because I spared you the last time.. you dared launch another attack on Olivia?!”
Their body stiffened at the sudden revelation from Damien, they exchanged brief glances..
Alexa went on her knees holding unto Damien’s legs..
“I’m very sorry… I don’t know what came over me big bro.. please forgive me”
Damien stepped out of her hold, forgiveness?! after what she pulled off? doesn’t she know what would have happened if he hadn’t gotten to that room on time?
“Forgive you?! Alexandra! don’t you know how Olivia’s life might have been ruined by that stupid trick you played on her?! you can’t escape your punishment this time for thinking of such!”
Alexa rose up to her feet with a sharp glare “Punishment huh? this is about that low class lady isn’t it?! you’re even willing to punish your sister just because of her!.. she has managed to brainwash you! you’ve changed so much don’t you see that?!-
A slap fell at the side of her face, she raised her head up to see the burning gaze of the old lady boring into her..
“Grandma-
“So this was all your fault! I’ve always known this lady was a bad influence on you.. what are you waiting for?.. get out of this house!”
Rihanna laughed out in mockery, the old lady who never talks suddenly had the time today just because it involved her..
“Bad influence? really?! can’t you see that I’m the one most affected by the decision you and Damien’s mum made?! you both don’t like me and you had to stop me from getting what I’ve always wanted!”
She faced Damien with a teary gaze “I loved you and I still love only you Damien! we were doing just fine until you decided to bring in that lady and her son.. I have every right to know why you cheated on me seven years ago! I kept quiet because I trusted you to tell me when the time was right!”
Damien’s lips pulled up into a grin, a devilish one at that..
“You should have thought about all these when you and your brother chose to drug me that night at your birthday party.. or do you think I’m not aware of that?”
Rihanna’s face suddenly went pale, Damien knew about that night?
“What?!” Anita screamed out..
