The Divorced Heiress

Damien stayed at the office as not because he didn’t want to go home but because he had received a

call from the company when he walked out of Marie’s ward.

He was so shocked and wondered why things weren’t going his way but upon a close look, he started to regret how he had treated Amanda as he discovered that everything started when he divorced her. He didn’t need to be told as he knew that the Andersons might have been so mad at him that they started taking action but it was just a little bit thus no one noticed. Even he shrugged it off when he missed some projects with big companies thinking that his proposals weren’t good enough.

When he arrived at the company, he didn’t talk to anyone, just walked into his office and locked in as he didn’t want any disturbance.

Also, he knew that with everything that was happening, his parents and grandmother would be keer

an eye on him.

He had been searching for some projects offered by other companies that had been financed. Althoug he knew that if he went to fight for those small projects, he would be laughed at, he didn’t care as he wanted to save his family’s business.

To him, they could laugh at him however they wanted but he was so confident in himself and knew that after that, he would emerge a successful businessman just as he was in the last few hours.

He had looked at a lot of the projects searching for companies to collaborate then chose some of them which he was confident would make good profits.

He was so tired but he wanted to continue working thus he stood up, went to the coffee maker, and made himself a cup of coffee to energize himself and prevent him from sleeping.

He picked up a call and dialed his friend’s contact.

Bro,” the person on the other side said.

“I need your help. Can you please lend me money? I will pay you back. Also, do you have any good projects in your hands?” Damien asked.

-The person on the other side remained silent as he didn’t know what to say and at the same time

wondered whether the rumors which had been circulating were true. Although Damien’s words confir the rumors, he didn’t want to accept the harsh reality. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

“Bro, it isn’t that I don’t want to help. I have been hearing rumors about you and had wanted to reach out and help by handing some projects to you so that you can revive your company but Dad and that stupid brother of mine found out. I was suspended from work and Dad took over the company thus l

currently have no say in the company. At hand, I only have less than ten million,” the other party

said.

Damien’s face was expressionless and his eyes didn’t have any emotion when he heard those words.

“Okay. Thank you so much,” Damien said emotionless.

“No need to thank me! I haven’t even helped you out,” the person said and Damien hung up the call.

He called a few more people but he didn’t get help as they all came with different excuses. He wanted to believe them but he knew that they didn’t want to risk offending the Andersons for him.

He understood them as he could never help anyone who had offended a person who was so mightier him. Also, no one in his family would have agreed to him helping them thus, he didn’t blame them.

He called on the last person who he knew had a lot of connections although he wasn’t in the business

industry.

“Hello,” he said.

“Hello, Mr Scott. Is there any problem? I just found out that your fiancée has been discharged. How is she doing?” the person on the other end said.

“She is fine. Didn’t you say that she was faking illnesses? How can a person who fakes illnesses not be fine?” Damien said making the person on the other end chuckle.

“Then why are you calling me?”

“I need your help…” Damien wanted to elaborate on what he needed help with but he was interrupte

“No need to explain yourself. I know that your company is facing crises thus I am sure you want me to help out in that, am I right?” he asked.

“Yes. I will…”

‘I am sorry but I can’t help you. We aren’t familiar with each other. Also, I will send something to you right now. Make sure you check it out,” the person said before hanging up.

After some minutes, he received a message but before he clicked on it, he received a call from

abroad.

‘Dad,” he said in a low yet respectful tone.

“Your sister just arrived. How are things there? Mom explained to me everything,” his father said.

“It is worse, the Gilberts have attacked us in Riverside City, and the morning, the Rodriguez family attacked us. The Andersons haven’t taken action yet. Amanda went back to the capital thus I am sure that she won’t have time to deal with us now,” Damien explained making the man hum.

“Should I send you money to revive the company right now or should we wait?” his father asked.

There was silence for a while.

“I was planning on fighting for projects first. If you have money, I can fight for good projects searching for finances,” Damien said.

“That’s a good plan. Make sure that even if the stocks are at their lowest, no one from outside buys the shares,” his father said before hanging up.

He was so disappointed in his son that he didn’t want to waste his time as he knew that they might start fighting.

Damien then clicked on the message and moans filled the office. When he saw the figure, he was

shocked.

A call interrupted him, making him thank the person, but his eyes turned cold when he saw the name.

“Damien, you have to save Marie! She has been caught,” a woman said as she cried on the other side.

“I already told her that I don’t want anything with her. I have also canceled the wedding. Go save your daughter don’t call me,” Damien said coldly.

“Okay then. She said that if you don’t go to the station to see and get her out, she will tell them

“How dare she!” he roared angrily.
