CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-ONELesley knew that if she didn't go on with her plans, her father was going to do what he had in mind for her. Plans to get her married to a person she didn't want and she knew didn't even care a bit about her.She had told Damien to come over so they could both visit her father. She had informed him about her plans to break some news to him. And she had said it to her father, although in an unclear way. She'd not dare break the news to him immediately, she wanted her father to get to see Damien face to face while also meeting him.Damien had asked her earlier on the phone, he wanted to be sure that she was making a good decision. He wanted to be sure that she wanted him to go with her. What if her father didn't accept him? The thought of all of the questions bothered him a lot and he had to know." What if your father doesn't accept me? What if he never wants me?" He asked her the moment they had both gotten to the restaurant that the supposed meeting

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-THREEThe words Lesley's father just uttered caught Damien unawares as he could not seem to fix the pieces together from any angle.Why would the man make claims that his face was familiar? Where could they have met before? For all he knew, they had never seen face to face except now. And, he had only caught a glimpse of Lesley's father's face in her mobile phone or in a magazine he found among her belongings some weeks back.So, he couldn't get a clear picture as to why his face looked familiar to the older man. It was not like he was a popular person or that he was a son of a rich magnate too who was popular." I don't know why you look familiar to me too." Lesley's father said, still looking straight into Damien's eyes. "I have never met you, neither would I have had the thought of having any business with you let alone think of squeezing a few minutes out of my schedule to have to seat before you now" Mr. Smith said in a hoarse voice which made it o

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY- FIVE" Damien it's me!" The young lady called out to him much to his surprise. She acted as though she knew him before."So, it really is true that you are still alive!" She screamed out of sheer excitement seeing him standing in front of her that instant after they had all the thought he was long gone and had now become nothing but a passing memory in their lives." Damien, it's me, have you forgotten about me?" The strange lady standing in front if him asked but he only got more shocked and perplexed.He didn't know if he knew who she was or if he had met her before." Who are you, I'm not sure I know you miss" he said and turned to look at Lesley to see if he was dreaming or not. How could a certain woman who he was not sure he knew existed just come out of God knows where claiming to know him and that he was Damien." Damien?" Lesley asked, she decided to butt in and get involved in the discussion that had ensued that evening between her fiance and

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY- SEVENIt took them both a whole week before they found Kathryn after the hectic search for her. It felt as though, that whole period that they had not seen her she had already left the entire United Kingdom, but on this fateful day, they met her.Luckily for them, it was in the same restaurant they had met the last time and this time around, she didn't come alone but had come with another young man.This was the man who had seen Damien first before informing her. They were both classmates studying in the same university when Damien had crossed boundaries to complete his studies in the UK before he was declared dead which had come as a shock to everyone." Good morning guys!" Kathryn greeted them with a smile as they both walked in and were offered a seat opposite herself and the man before her." Morning!" Lesley and Damien chorused as they both sat down on the chair." You guys should meet Max, he is my friend" Kathryn said to them, introducting the ma
