Chapter 15
"You didn't think I did be stupid enough to want to sleep here with you."
"You can sleep here I will go to the living room." He didn't want her to be upset with him. "Or I can just go home, if my presence irritates you that much."
"It's you obeying my sister and planning whatever shitting coup that is irritating to me," Damien had never liked sleeping over at their house while they were dating, countless times she had insisted but he always refused and now that Olivia insisted he had jumped like a happy puppy wagging his tail to the tune she was playing.
"I didn't agree to stay back because of what Olivia said, I agreed to stay back because I wanted to spend more time with you."
"By sleeping in my room the first day you meet me after a long while, huh?"
"I apologize, I didn't mean to upset you. I will go home and then draft a letter of termination, then come and pick you up tomorrow." "Much better."
He couldn't believe his ears, he thought when he said that she would change her mind but it seemed his little Dawn had changed a lot. He remembered how she would hug him and beg him to sleep over and even when she slept over at his house, she would get sad when it was time to go home, but now she didn't want him around.
"I...I..."
"You what? I don't trust you and that's just the truth."
"Very well." He didn't know what to say, at least he was her lawyer and that was enough for him for now, but slowly he was going to win her affection back. He dropped the duvet and contract on the bed, and left the room smiling at her. He headed down the stairs as he heard Olivia calling out to him from the kitchen.
"Where are you off to?"
"Home."
"Did Dawn say something? You know how she can be when she is angry."
"No, I just feel its best I take things slow with her for now."
"Slow?" Olivia muttered looking up the stairs then back at Damien, she didn't know if Dawn was eavesdropping on their conversation."Alright, let me escort you to your car."
She didn't really want to see Damien off, she just wanted to talk about Dawn and her plans to get them back together.
They walked outside to his car.
"Slow isn't a good idea." Olivia finally broke the silence that was already forming between them, "Dawn is just angry, right now what she needs is your attention."
"I intend to give her that," and he meant it.
"I think your ways are not going to work."
"What are you talking about?"
"You are too soft."
"What?" Damien wanted to laugh but ended up smiling, this was Dawn they were talking about, the woman he loved, being soft was a priority when it came to her and a lot of patience, how could he be hard on her, or he didn't just quite understand what Olivia was driving at. "What do you mean?"
"All she needs is a little push, and trust me she will be back in your arms before you know it."
"What evil plans have you cooked up this time Olivia?"
"It is not an evil plan, it's a push plan?"
"A push plan?"
"It always works wonders, you should think about it and let me know."
"Why are you helping me Olivia? What the catch?"
"Why do everyone always think there is a catch, this is my sister, so there is no catch. I just want her to be happy, and I know she would with you." It was all a lie, she wanted Dawn out of the way as soon as possible, she had finally cooked up a plan but for it to work she needed Damien to be involved, in case it backfired. "I know me and her haven't talked much all day and I might end up saying some hurtful things about her or to her, but I really do care about her." "I will think about it but you will need to tell me this plan of yours first."
"Ofcourse"
"So you are terminating the contract," Matteo teased eating the jostaberries on the table in Stephan's office, he still couldn't believe that Dawn had actually demanded that the contract be terminated, didn't she know Stephan. "Maybe," Stephan replied dryly, but Matteo knew that was a big no, he knew Stephan would give her a hard time before agreeing to it, that's if he even agrees.
"And the crazy bitch." Matteo asked leaning into his seat.
"I will handle her." Olivia needed to be taught a lesson, and Stephan knew just how to get to her.

"I told you long time ago to end things with her immediately you found out she couldn't close those her legs." Matteo had been in a meeting in one of their clubs when one of the men who was drunk kept talking about some slut, he was banging.
He talked about how her body was on his and said all sort of nasty things giving details to what they had done. It wasn't a new thing to Matteo and this men, they enjoyed conversations like this, but Matteo had instantly flared up when the man had showed him the picture of the slut, it was Olivia.
Matteo had never been more angry, it was a big disgrace to his brother if they knew that they were sleeping with Stephan's woman, Olivia had just been a useless woman.
Stephan had nearly fallen for her and had taken her seriously, in secret he had praised Olivia countless times to him unknown to him that she was sharing her body with other men who weren't up to him.
He still wondered why Stephan hadn't yet told her the reason why he had been acting harsh to her.
"Boss, Miss Hemlocks is here." They both heard over the phone.
"Send her up." Stephan had been too engross with the conversation, he didn't notice she brought a lawyer with her.
"That's your cue to leave." Stephan said, he wasn't ready for this shady bastard interfering in their conversation.
The elevator opened as Dawn and Damien walked up. Matteo smiled at both of them rising up from his seat, he certainly wasn't going anywhere.
He wanted to be a part of this meeting and hear every little details not because he wanted to get on Stephan's nerve, but because the supposed lawyer happened to be Jerome's brother and Stephan's rival. "It's so nice to see you again, miss hemlocks." He motioned them to the couch in the office, today was going to be a long day and it was only right that they all get comfortable.
"Good morning Matteo," Dawn replied then nodded in the direction of Stephan as they all postioned themselves on the couch.
Dawn and Damien sat at one side while Matteo stood next to Stephan who was sitting opposite them. Why was this bastard here? This nitwit? Stephan thought.
"What would you and your ex boyfriend love to have?" Matteo asked laying emphasis on the ex boyfriend, he had recently found out about her ex when Stephan had asked him to find out more about her.
He wanted to stir up some heat before he went to his office and the glare he got from Stephan was enough to know that Stephan was boiling inside right now.
"He is my lawyer." Dawn had wanted to ask how he knew but she figured they knew literally everything about her, since the two idiots didn't have anything to do, she noticed a little cut on Matteo's lips when she had stared at him. She wondered if he had gotten into a fight.
"Jerome Grey's younger brother is your lawyer, so are you guys like back together?"
"Get out of my office." Stephan had enough of this little prick.
"Yes my lord." Matteo smiled leaving them alone satisfied with the current tension in the room.

Stephan stared at Damien angrily, he didn't even look at Dawn not once while she explained that she had written a letter of termination. She had seem resistant to the fact that she and this nincompoop were back together, but he didn't trust Damien. For a busy man like him to leave his work, it meant he wanted Dawn back.
"Once you sign it then it is done," Dawn explained. She had expected Damien to explain but he seemed busy with his eye contest with Stephan. She wondered what was up with this two men, but that was the least of her concern. Her main concern was getting Stephan to sign the letter and terminate their contract.
"I will review it, you can drop it on the table." Stephan finally spoke still looking at Damien.
"Okay, I will just wait."
"There is no need for that, you can come back tomorrow."
"Okay." Dawn said, it was just tomorrow and he would read it and sign it. Maybe he had a lot of work on his table and wanted to take his time, she really wanted him to sign it right now but she didn't want to upset him and make him change his mind.
"Why tomorrow?" She heard Damien voice, what is wrong with him? Was he trying to get Stephan angry?
"I demand that you sign the papers right this minute." Damien ordered, why the hell did they have to wait till tomorrow.
"Demand." Stephan laughed then finally looked at Dawn. "Who did you say this nitwit is again?"
"Nitwit?" Damien couldn't believe this idiot. "You are the nitwit, for forcing a woman against her will, to agree to a stupid contract."
"You haven't answered me Dawn," Stephan said not giving an eye to Damien.
"He is my lawyer," Dawn answered she tapped Damien on the side trying to signal him to stop trying to provoke Stephan. From the way Stephan was looking at her, she could tell he was getting pissed off.
"Then tell your lawyer that he should get out, if he doesn't understand his job."
"Why don't you sign the papers so we can get out? Stop being an insolent prick and do the needful, she doesn't want you so why are you forcing her against her will."
Rip!
Rip!
Rip!
Dawn couldn't believe it, Stephan had actually picked up the letter of termination and ripped it into pieces.
