Chapter 10: Chapter 10

"Wait! What?! You're staying here? No way!" Kimberly exclaimed, jumping up.

"You can say that again but I'm not going to change my decision. Let's just spend this Sunday together." He tapped her feet.

"I'm coming." She rushed into her room and came out with a bible.

"You suddenly changed. Did you wash your body with a black soap?"

"Kimberly, what are you trying to do? And what do you mean I've changed." He frowned, knitting his brows together.

"I've been noticing your attitude minutes ago. You suddenly changed from the screaming cold and rude boss to a soft and caring boss. You sure have mood swings?" She stepped back ready run cause of the way he was already glaring holes at her.

"You just talked to me like that?! That aside, what's the bible for?" His eyes went to the bible she held firmly.

"To pray for you." She replied confidently. "And to thank God for changing you. I hope you won't go back to been cold and rude again." She smiled.

Damien flew up to catch Kimberly but she ran away. And that was when they heard a knock.

The pizza man is here.

"Who's there?" Kimberly asked as she walked to the door and opened it.

"Ohh! The pizza and coke. Boss, the man is here." She told her boss.

Damien came and paid for the pizza then shut the door before turning to Kimberly.

"Sir, you're not going to beat me right? I'm too old to receive a beating from someone." She pouted.

"I wasn't going to do that. I was only looking at you so you could hand me the pizza." He stretched his hand out to receive the pizza while she held the coke.

"You can join me if you want."

"I ate not too long. I don't want to get fat by eating too much." She answered and opened the coke to drink.

"I didn't give you permission to drink that!" Damien uttered.

He got up and grabbed the Coke from her then sat back.

Kimberly scoffed, rolled his eyes and reluctantly sat beside him.

"Now, you're changing again. From cool to stingy. You can't allow me, a whole me to drink your coke. I'm your secretary."

"So now, you have the boldness to talk to me the way you want now? I can change towards you the way I like and I can sack you right now. I'm sure you don't want that." He glared, turning to the pizza to take a bite.

"I'm sorry. I thought we are friends already."

"Friends my foot. I hate friends! They are betrayals!" He snapped right away.

His face turned cold. Now the real Damien is back.

Kimberly blinked and gulped hard.

"I've you been betrayed by friends? Maybe once or twice."

She asked curiously.

"Do you know what kills the cat?" Damien smirked. A devilish smirk.

"Yes. It's curiosity." She replied simply.

"And that's what is going to kill you. Curiosity."

"But I'm not a cat." Kimberly blinked again, innocently.

Damien threw a dead glare at her and held her ear.

"You can't just talk to me anyhow you like now because I've been a little playful. Let me eat in peace now." He faced the pizza to continuing eating and stepped it down with the coke.

Playful? He's far from playful.

Kimberly watched him as he ate everything right in her face and even finished the Coke.

She has been swallowing her saliva since, her mouth watering and stretching out her neck to see if he's gonna remain for her but he didn't.

What kind of boss is he? He won't blame him cause when she was eating, she didn't ask him to come eat. She ate the food alone.

"You almost poured saliva on my pizza." Said Damien.

"How? I didn't come near you. I'm there and you're there. So?"

"With the you're gulping and swallowing down your saliva. Sorry, I didn't give you. Maybe another day. Not to make this day boring, tell me about yourself, your family."

Kimberly's face turned sour. She didn't want to say anything about her family.

"I'm sorry, sir but I can't say anything right now. I will tell you another day." She wanted him to skip the question.

"Did you have a tough time when growing up? Maybe you're maltreated or something."

"Yeah, kind of. By my stepfather and stepbrother. I don't want to say anything about this." She shook her head.

Kimberly was a happy going girl until Steven and his father came into her life. Making her life miserable. So miserable.

Damien understood. Very well.

It seems like the two of them needs healing.

"I'm staying with you till tomorrow." He reminded her before going out to receive fresh air.

~~~~~~~

Somewhere in New York,

"Father, I got the details. She's in Germany right now." Steven spoke as he threw the papers to his father.

"She must have grown into a beautiful woman just like her mother." His father said as he looked into the papers and read.

"What are you still planning to do to her?" Asked Steven.

"You gonna know my plan soon. I know you still want to f*ck her ass. Don't forget she's your stepsister. You can do it slowly with her." He flashed him a smile.

"Whatever! I'm not sure if I'm still going to do that. Dad, I need to get to somewhere right now. I will call Beatrice to take care of you." Steven left the house.

~~~~~~~~~~

Somewhere in Italy,

"He's alive! He survived! I don't know how but he did. I saw him with my two naked eyes." A guy ran to the old man in his sixties.

"You mean Damien?!" The old man arched his brows at the guy. In anger.

"I thought we killed him! How come?"

"I don't know too. I'm surprised as well."

"You're going to do everything to get into that company as a staff. Not now, i will tell you when to do that. We are starting again." The old man walked into his chambers.

"How dare he come back to life?!" He groaned.
