The loss is not home, if you’re looking for him. He’s at the Reign Gardens, for the business summit and banquet he’s hosting, so let’s just return quietly inside, m’am, I beg of you.”

Diego’s head whipped around again as he stared at Lana in shock

However, the Inokiner
eyes scared him and
and he dared not say another word
The cab rolled to a stop in front of the Reign Gardens.
Lana could hear classical music, emanating from the garden as well dressed and sophisticated people milled about, discussing and laughing.
The place was ined and Lana had a hard time finding Damien, but everyone did step out of her way, once they saw her.

Chapter Four
Stunned, Damien stared at her.
Her head was wrapped completely in a bandage, her face was white and her lip pale, and there were cuts on it.
He was puzzled
He thought she had been in a minor accident so why is she Toolding like she just survived world
When
ego had called him that she had been involved in an accident, he wanted to go to the hospital because if his grandma gets wind of Lana beiby hospitalized, all hell will let loose
But Rina had held on to his cloth at that moment.
“Please Dami, don’t go. I’m scared” she had said, softly and feverishly. Her eyes
es were closed but tears still dripped out of them to soak her pillows.
She was a very fragile person and had been seriously shaken when Lana had behaved like a rogue towards her.
His heart hardened and he decided to stay with her. After all, he was suce Lana was just involved in a minor accident.
“Just take her to the hospital! The doctors would take care of her he had spoken harshly into the phone “Do not call me over this matter again.”
A be said those words, he failed to see the slight smile which curved stina’s lips. For she was awake and only putting up an act
ad taken care of ber all day, however and forgotten about Lana but here she was in front of him, loolding like death.
She looked awful but that did not dim the fire in her eyes
She stared at him with hatred as he quietly excused himself from his group and walked towards her, cautiously.
What was that she said?
She can’t be serious but somehow, Damien was sure she was serious.
Lana’s formerly, calm and cowardly eyes were staring at him with so much hatred and fire, that he almost lost composure.
Ashe walked towards her, a voice called out.
“Lana, whit are you doing here?” Lana tumed to look at a middle aged woman who was dressed to the nines, in a beautiful red gown,
with a full skirt that covered
11 was Vera, Damien’s Mom
They said you were at the hospital but you seem fine. You were never the most beautiful either, so it’s okay” she walked up to her son, and stared at Lana as though she was something nasty.
vera had never really liked Lana. They were all enraged when Laura had brought in a nobody to be a part of their family.
That’s what they thought of her
A nobody with no d
no family or background. She was just a poor aide that took care of rich people and somehow deceived Laura into making Damien marry her Lana’s face darkened indiately, when she saw that Vera was linking arms with Hina, who was looking like a flower petal at that moment, dressed in an exquisite. white dress, with thun shoulder straps and a flared skirt which stopped just above her lates
Lata was very conscious of the fact that she looked like a mess but she didn’t care
Juna Leyes glittered with malice and muckery as she glanced Gana but she quickly masked it as she walked up to Daten and linked ants with him also.
She laid her head on his shoulder and gave Lana a petulant look.
“Why are you out in the cold, Rina Damien quickly pulled off his suit jacket and draped it over Hina’s shoulder.
“I just wanted to see you” she sniffled and cuddled up to los, still casting malicious glances at Lana but Lama looked like she didn’t give a damn.
“That it’s not sale. The doctor said you should be mu
“Oh come on dear, we are still in the estate vers piped in “There’s nothing wrong Incoming out to see your fiance. You both look good together. You ought to be with her instead of a gold digger who is also a nobody
She said that last bit, looking pointedly at Lana. Vers had hated her mother inlaw when she brought in this poor aide to marry her precious son.
She was of a long line of artstocrats and she wished for Damien to marry into money and wealth just like their family…
Even though Rina’s family was not as wealthy as theirs, she was still the one Damien preferred and Vera accepts her because she was an outstanding tashion designer and was valuable to their company, which was a fashion and entertainment company.
Lana, on the other hand, was nothing but a gold digging poor aide. Vera would not let this nasty thing destroy her son’s happiness.
Damien was silent as he watched Lana with narrowed eyes. He saw that she had no reaction to what his mom said. From all indications, it seemed as though she was deal from the way she was staring at them, indifferently.
He had expected her to turn into a blubbery mess at the mention of that word. After all, she brought this all on herself but the gaze she was giving them was just
cold.
Walt, was she serious about the divorce?
She had got to be joking
His fists clenched into balls at his side as he remembered what dina had told him, when he eventually found her after three years.
He knew now why his grandmother had insisted on them getting married. It was not because she had saved his life.
Rather, it was because Lana manipulated his grandma into it. She was obsessed with him and used that to blaclunail Rina, which led her to leaving the city.
| Grandma even went as far as saying, he can only have his inheritance, if he married her and bore a child through her.
Which he knew would never happen, because he had never touched her and he would never touch her.
And now, here she was acting all righteous and seeking a divorce?
She had got to be joling.
“I’ve had enough of this shit” she finally spat out through gritted teeth.
“Go home, Lana” Vera sald, her dark eyes looking at her with impatience and derision. There’s no place for you here! You’re embarrassing the family,” Lana scoffed, and this attitude made Vera frown
They were treating her as though she wasn’t there, as though she wasn’t a human being with feelings, that bitch was caressing her husband up and down. And her mother–in–Law, rubbing it in her face that she’d never be Damien’s lover.
She can’t stand the sight, anymore.
She felt weaker as she belield them, and she seemed more pale than ever “you think about what I said, Damien Romero,
”
With that, she turned on her heel to walk out on them but she had not talon a step when a huge pole which connected wires, on which beautiful lantems were hung atuund the garden, fell with aloud crak
Everyone screamed and shrieked as they watched the pole descend
Lalla gasped in horror, bei eyes widening in tear as the pole decended but she was not quick enough to move out of the way
She saw from the comer of her eyes as Damien launched himself at Rina, covering her with his entire body and her heart ached as she closed her eyes, waiting for the impact of the pole ouler bead.
I would be better to just die. She could not take it anymore. If she had known love would be this painful, she never would have ventured into it.
Suddenly, there w

Buddenly, she became acutely aware of a strong worl

Stunned, she looked up into beautiful greeneyes, covered with long lashes
A beautiful uman, with long black hat, seal green eyes, and thin lips was holding her up by the waist, against himself

almost lost her lite and the pain of seeing that her so–called husband had not even tried to save her.
