Arianna's pov

I can't believe its five months already, the last one month hasn't been easy in Damien and mr Douglas absence, the females in the company made life hell for me, Even the receptionist who smiled at me when I first resumed has called me names and given me attitude all because they believed myself and Damien are dating,

Damien has been scolded by mr Douglas and as for me I've been trying to keep my feelings to myself not wanting to get too close to Damien, in his absence I was able to survive their bites and attacks because Alex the chief technology officer came to my aid at the cafeteria when I was ganged up on, Alex stood up for me and protected me, he even threatened to report to mr Douglas and he will make sure they are fired before they all started letting me be. My office became bored when there's no Damien but I had Alex to make me feel at ease, Alex is a married man but I enjoy his company, I've met his wife and beautiful daughter when I was invited over for dinner..

As soon as Damien and Douglas came back from their trip  was summoned to a meeting by the two of them and I was forced to speak up, so I had no choice but to let them in on what I went through in their absence, Alex was excluded but the rest of them were punished by having their salaries slashed in halves, and they still went about saying i worked my way up with my body and all sorts of stories, but I'm less concerned since Damien is back to the office,things were back to normal after some time.And myself and Alex  are closer than before he treats me like a sister and in him I found a brother I never had. And his wife became my sister from another mother, i introduced them to Belinda since Bell is the only friend I've had over the years. We all clicked well and it even helped me more to control my feelings for Damien, Alex and his wife also know I have a big time crush on Damien and now im falling for him and can't let my feelings be known cause I can't see myself getting hurt, i know Damien finds me attractive and all yet he's changes women like he changes his underwears,I miss him so much but I'm keeping it to myself ,over time my feelings for him as grown deep and I can't help it.i look forward to his return every day and Alex and Bel taunts me with that everyday.

Alex brought me lunch since going to the cafeteria has become something I fear so much,I get insulted every little chance they get,I wonder why I wasn't pissed off yet and start hating Damien , he's the reason behind my predicament and yet my heart won't just listen..
