CHAPTER THREE

"I love you Damian, ". A soft voice could be heard from a room down the hallway as the voice was moaning out of pleasure, immediately the voice stopped, and a young lady ran out of the room like a deranged person after some minutes as Damian threw the remainings of her belongings.

"You kicked her out Damian, why? l" Tony said as his hands were crossed behind his back as he walked into the room. It was a hotel, as everywhere seemed expensive and equisite. Everything literally glittered as the were made of gold and silver. Everywhere was neat and enchanting .

"I'm tired of this playboy lifestyle Tony none of them taste fantastic or marvelous or amazing they are just plain and normal with wide ..... " Damian said and gave him the 'you know what I mean look'.

Tony busted into a rift of laughter, he laughed and held his abdomen, then he said "please, don't just lie to yourself that you want to quit being a playboy and chase your secretary. But why do CEOs always fall for their secretaries." He said in between the rift of laughter he had.

"This isn't one of those fantasies you read , maybe if you'd stop fantasizing long ago you would have been a little bit reasonable."

Rolling his eyes, Damian made his way to the restroom while tony just stayed in the main room mocking him .

Damian smith was about 8ft (2.44 m) tall with very heavenly features which made him look like a breed of royalty. He has a " very built" manly body, but he was tall and had broad shoulders, which made him look fantastic to the eyes of his preys. Furthermore, he just had the looks of an idol.

He was from a not so rich family, but he was rich on his own, the way he made his money is still a mystery even to his family, only his friends knew his work. His full name was Damian Raymond smith. He had the mentality of having to earn on his own, but no one knew his work.

He had four friends but is only close with one(Tony James), he was the only son of his parents, and he had four sisters, growing up with only girls he had a different attitude and personality from Damian, in his case he treats women with respect, although he hasn't dated anyone before neither is he a flirt, he still has his charisma that was outstanding, he was the manager of DS CORE and was a typical example of a gentleman.

His father is a politician working for the government, but he had the same mentality of Damian, to make his own money and be independent.

Damian friends were Damian's carbon copy, Tyler sam, he is just like Damian but in his case, he just has a one-night stand with women or girls, even the ones older than him, and then he abandons them and moves on to his next prey or the next person that he deems fit for his bed. He was always the type of friend that would talk dirty without shame.

The next friend Dylan Matthew is more of the well – reserved one among them, he is also the oldest.

He doesn't like the sound of women. He hates parties. Furthermore, he just prefers being alone all the time with no one to talk to, a typical example of an introvert. Not only that, but he is an artist a with a smart brain.

Likewise, he is intelligent and hardworking, the total opposite of Damian and Tyler. There is not much about him due to his mysterious self, only his friends know that he is an orphan who lives with his aunt.

His father left an enormous legacy for him to carry, but he is not of age, so he needs to be up to 22 to carry this legacy, and currently he is just 28, while Damian and Tyler are both 25-26. Damian's friends all had different personalities and we're all blessed in different ways.

The only friend that was so close to Damian was Tony, as there was chaos between Damian and his other friends.

The youngest one of them is 23 years old, but he is a sweetheart. He looks just like a girl. In fact, he can't be different from a girl as he always acts like a baby, and he is very adorable.

He is tall but not like Damian, but manageable his name is Derrick Ross. As the first son of the Ross family, he is just too babyish and cute to everyone, and this made people attracted to him just because of his personality.

He even has more proposals from both girls and boys, and this makes him the light of his three friends. He is the youngest and the second richest that is after Damian, while Tyler is the third and the last person on the list of money is Dylan, not like he isn't rich, he is just in the middle class because of his reserved lifestyle.

Although women or rather he also attracts girls, the can only admire him from afar as he is like wildfire. All this people were his friends but something made them separate.

DS CORE

In the cafeteria:

"Love your new outfit Lydia, where did you buy it" a young petite looking girl asked Lydia

It was the end of break so all the workers had departed the form the cafeteria leaving only Lydia in it, the dress she wore was and official office wear and it suited her properly that as she sat down the aura of elegance surrounded her. Lydia wasn't the rude type but she was the type that can changes if you asked for it.

"Hey ,how are you?? Actually it's just a simple cheap office wear. " Lydia said with a smile.

" what?? If you say it is cheap, how does it look so expensive on you? Girl, you are blessed for having such a body. I mean such elegance." the girl said with an exciting expression .

"Oh please don't make me blush" Lydia said dramatically

" Well I'm just stating a fact. "she stood at arms akimbo

" okay,I must also admit you are cute, and also have a really recommendable body. "Lydia returned the compliment.

"I know, but it's just that I'm too plain, I mean how can any guy notice me like this." She said as she stared at her flowery dress.

"ohhhh,I see you lack self confidence ;uh what's your name." Lydia smiles at her which made the girl feel more welcomed.

"Oh so sorry, my name is Alexa nice meeting you Lydia. The one and only popular employee of Mr Damian." Alexa completed the last statement dramatically

"I'm sorry what??" Lydia asked confused.

"Well see you around." Alexa just smiled mysteriously and left.

"Hey!! Wait!! Can you explain more please. "Lydia yelled at her.

THREE HOURS LATER ;

"Mom!! I'm almost home, don't worry." Lydia's phone was on her right ear as she spoke to her mom on the phone.

It was more like the universe hated it anytime she made a statement that was in her favor.on getting outside she meets the rain falling heavily.To worsen the situation the rain didn't let her move an inch without wetting the documents she had in hand.

She just stood at the corner silently cursing the unexpected weather change with her eyes . This childish action of hers went on for few more minutes until a car stopped right in front of her , and the glass window of the car came down revealing the face of Damian.

"Sir Damian!!" She called out of shock, maybe she didn't expect to see him in the office environment by about 8pm in the evening.

"Get in." Damian said with an uninterested expression on his face.

"Oh, don't worry sir , thanks for your kind gestures." She said nervously, she didn't want to have anything to do with this man as it would always change her plans.

"I'm not doing it for your sake, I'm doing because I don't permit loitering in my working environment after the expected time" Damian replied in a very cold tone.

Poor Lydia just gulped and got into the car just for the safety of the documents she carried and after that she uttered no other word rather she just kept shifting towards the door continuously as she felt uncomfortable.

"Do you want to Marry the door??." Damian asked .

" Uhhhhhhh..... "Lydia made a funny expression on her face as she stared at him.

Damian just stared outside throughout the ride and uttered no word . Lydia had always known of his different and opaque aura that always surrounded him as he was difficult to comprehend, so she made sure to be careful about him and always mind the words she used.

FEW MINUTES LATER

" I'll stop here ,thank you sir " Lydia said hurriedly as the got to their destination.

During the long awaited short ride the driver was also uncomfortable about the sudden change of aura by the boss.

"dan!! " Damian called his driver with a surprised expression as he asked "was I that bad?"

"No master..... "Dan said as he paused to let his master feel relieved then he completed it by saying " you were terrible, I mean you didn't even start a conversation with her and the air was so intense that I couldn't breathe. Are you human at all? "

"But I tried to but she was just shifting to the door like I was some sort of monster." Damian replied in a calm tone.

"In case you've forgotten, you are a monster I mean how did you breathe." Dan laughed at his own jokes but he didn't notice that the joke caught Damian off guard as his face became pale and a glint of sadness flashed across his eyes.

"Indeed I'm a monster." He muttered beneath his breath as he seemed to be having some thoughts over something. The car drove off after some minutes of standing outside Lydia's apartment.

Meanwhile, Lydia ran like a person being chased. She entered her apartment and shut the door with a very loud sound as she leaned her back on the door.

She dropped the documents in her hands on the floor as she held her chest due to the way her heart beats escalated.

"What is wrong with me?" She screamed a little, so as not to disturb the neighbors that were already asleep.

She had worked for Mr Damian for only one week and life as a secretary to her was more like the life of a personal assistant . She was always being sent on irrelevant errands, everytime she was to take the minute of the meetings while his personal assistant just sat there giving her orders every passing second.

She decided not to think about all those things as tomorrow was another day for hell, she then made her way to her bedroom.

Lydia stayed alone while her parents stayed at los Angeles. She was always lonely because she had no one to keep her company.

Lydia Lawrence was her name her middle name was Derrick but she prefered being called Lydia Lawrence.She was the Hidden daughter of Sir Ross. Her father keeps her identity hidden as things are too complicated.

OUTSIDE LYDIA'S APARTMENT

"Boss we are outside the apartment." A heavily built man said as he spoke Into the walkie talkie he held. He also had an ear pod in his left ear.

"Get in, do not kill her just bring her to me " The person on the other line replied.

UNKNOWN VOICE
