Chapter 37: Lady Luck!

Leslie's P.O.V.

I don't see why we have to eat out?"I ask Damien as we got out of the car in front of a very luxurious looking restaurant Damien decided it was time to make our first official appearance as a couple in public by going to a very public and popular restaurant frequented by the high class and the rich.

"I know but I think it's time to shut the mouths of those vipers, don't you think?. Besides Morgan went through great length to prepare a gift for you, you should be there at the unvieling."  He says as he adjusts his tux taking my hands in his as we enter into the restaurant.

We were welcomed by the host,

As we stepped in. The looks on everyone face was priceless as they stared at my swollen stomach with Damien by my side. As we moved inside I then spot Vivian sitting by the table we were directed to, our eyes locking on each others. She then glides over to us with a sore look on her face.

"I see you're back, she says"Saucily

"Yes she is, and she doesn't need your welcome greetings"Damien says as he tries to maneuver me out of her sight to seat down.

Ahhh, so the runaway bride is back after all this time."She says with a look of detest as she goes to take a seat in front of us.

"And the psycho boss, who tends to beat up her employees is here too"A familiar Velvet voice says.

"Morgan?"I Sutter out surprised to see her here. She never mentioned coming especially with a strange looking handsome guy.

"You didn't tell me you were coming?"I ask her surprised to see her. She looks lovely in a red dinner gown with a slit at the side. The young man pulls her seat as she sat next to Vivian , then he took his.

"I had to, since Xavier asked so nicely for me to accompany him. Besides I had to see the little she devil up close"She says with her hands toying with the menu.

"How dare you"She says in a threatening tone but was cut short by Morgan taking out her phone showing a video recording of her beating an employee mercilessly. I had no idea she was this mean, how can one beat up a human like that.

"Don't give me that look. You caused it, So it was you in the picture with Damien. You bitch. Poor poor Leslie your best friend is sleeping with your husband damien"She says in a crisp tone.

"What the hell is going on?"I ask Damien dis oriented and Confused.

"Well let me tell you, your friend here slept with Damien. I was about to send out people to look for the bitch trying to steal my man but since you're here, I can get rid of you myself."She says with a harsh tone.

Tsk, Tsk ,Tsk. Watch it your claws are showing, have you forgotten we're in public eyes now. The reporter will have a field day when they find out your secret"Morgan then says as she stares at her with a determined look.

"You wouldn't, it was your fault if I hadn't seen that picture I wouldn't have reacted that way."She say childish

"What picture?. What's really going on?"I ask Damien with a pleading look.

"We'll clear things up later."He whispers to me.

"Look, we know you've been shaking things up with the shareholders, using the leverage you have as the second shareholder of Damien's company. So let's make a deal if this video of you beating up your employee go viral, you'll be octrazied by the public,We have the testimony of that poor delivery man and the testimonies of your past secretaries. Stories of how you take out your anger on them are now in my possession, if your parents find out about am sure they'll send you back to the aslyum." Damien says ..

"What do you want from me?"She asks with a fustrated sigh.

"Hand over your shares of the company, and also I want you to leave Leslie Alone if you don't I'll make sure you don't see the light of the day"He says in a gruff and threatening tone.

"What did I ever do to you Damien, all I ever wanted was for you to love me." She says with tears in her eyes.

"Well your so called love is toxic, and I don't need it." He say in a gruff tone.

"Fine you can have the shares "She says with a huff as she strides out in Anger.

"What did hell is going on?"I ask suddenly as I replay the scene over and over again.

"Well you see, Vivian has been making unnecessary calls lately. She threatened you, even if you never told me anything I know it's because of her you left. I couldn't let her destroy us both so I decided to use her weakness against her as she did us"Damien says softly as he takes my hands into his.

"What?, So all this happened and I was left in the dark again"I ask, hurt that I wasn't part of their plan.

"Am sorry, I didn't want to stress you or the baby, Besides Vivian isn't worth the trouble. Thanks to Morgan and Xavier we were able to take her down, with this evidence we have on her she won't ever show her face in front of you ever again"He says smiling.

"What did she mean by you sleeping with Morgan then"I ask still confused on that part.

Well a few days ago Morgan sent a package to Vivian. It was a means to infuriate her and it worked, she sent pictures of her and Dorian together. Knowing Vivian she lost it thinking I was the one in the picture"He says with a baritone voice.

"It's real smart of Morgan to have turned her plans against her, she used Dorian to deceive you into thinking he was having an affair with her and Morgan did the same turning the tables to make her flip and she acted on impluse"Xavier says smirking...

"Thank you Morgan, I don't know what to say really. You all did this for me"I say softly still confused and a little bit ashamed that I almost once again wanted to believe Vivian words.

"Are you seriously thanking me?. That's what friends are for, I've got your back like you've always got mine"She then says, as she moves to stand in front of me giving me a soft kiss on my head.

"Who's hungry?. All this scheming has made me hungry"She chatters as she calls over the hostess to order.

I then sliently whisper a thank you to whoever or whatever is out there ,that made me run into Damien's car. Am thankful to the universe for giving me a man that I love and loves me ...

"Also thank you..

"Lady Luck"I thought you finally smiled down at me.
