Irina
“I'm waiting for you at the parking lot of the airport. Wait, let me just share my location.” My phone vibrated and there I saw her exact location.
“Have you seen Damian these few days?”
“Why the hell would I've seen your boyfriend, Irina?” Eve asked back.
“I'm just wondering since I couldn't get hold of much of him while I was on my business trip, Damian is busy with something he said.”
“Busy of what? Isn't he unemployed or something?”
“Eve.”
“What? That's the truth. Nevans are filthy rich. Damian is a trust fund baby, other than that he's nothing.”
“Damian and his uncle will train becoming their grandfather's protégé. He'll be an heir to Flying 'N Airlines.”
“Speaking of his Uncle, Alonzo has a month-long reservation in my family's hotel. I was informed by our manager since they were taking extra care of someone like him, VIP, I say.”
“Are you sure that it's Damian's uncle, though? There are tons of Alonzo.”
“I know. In fact, we've got two Alonzo checked in on our presidential suite, but one of them is definitely Damian's uncle, Alonzo Nevan. I saw his name.”
“I wonder if Damian knew. And what could he be doing in L.A.?” I asked Eve, who obviously didn't have an answer to that.
“Still can't get a hold of the ass?” Eve has been stealing glimpses from my phone since I began to try to contact my boyfriend.
“Aren't you going to regret it?”
“Regret what?”
“That you're going to marry Damian. In my opinion, he's so-so in the look department and irresponsible for his age. You deserve better.”
I glared at Eve which she only took lightly.
“Fine. I'll be supportive of your decision to marry that despicable brat since you're so in love with him, and he makes your heart flutter, but…"
Eve stared deadpan, with no hint of fooling around.
“The moment he did something that could possibly raze your marriage, I'll ask you to divorce him right away. I'd never encourage you to give him a second chance or whatnot.”
“Can we not talk about divorce this soon, Eve? Can we? We aren't even married yet. Damian hasn't proposed to me. This is all plans for now.”
“Plan that you initiated yourself, Irina.” She was irked.
“See? You're the one who's making all the effort, which is why I felt like a marriage with Damian would never work. He'll pull you down.”
“Damian used to be a playboy, and you hated him because of that. He's a changed man. Give him a chance to prove himself, at least do it for me, will you, hmm?” Eve whirled her eyes.
“Just one chance, but I'll still keep my eyes on him.” On cloud nine because of that, I hugged Eve, but she broke free from me first.
“You should get inside and rest. Stop stressing yourself over Damian. If I know, he's at the club like he always did, doing I don't know what.”
