It's always been you Chapter 1 1

Damian

My life hasn't been as easy as it may seem from outside. People thought I had everything in my life which in one way or the other true but it wasn't how they thought it was. I was indeed the heir of the Alessandro group but my own company, DA was the result of my hard work, sweat and blood. I have everything I want but the only thing I resent with my whole heart: Women.

I am not gay. I have particular interests in women that are limited to the bedroom but that's all that is to it. Each one of them is a gold digger. All they want is my hard dick and the hard cash that comes with me. So I maintain a safe distance from them.

I wasn't always like this. I was capable of warmth and love once. But just one night was enough to turn my Whole world upside down. It's been 7 years. The first year was difficult for me but then it got easier. But as a result of it I have walls high up around the place that once contained my warm beating heart.

"Addy, Your 5'o clock is here and then you free for your dinner with your dad." My Secretary Jillian pulled me out of my thoughts.

"Mr Williams is here with the contract papers between DA and Sarrson Corp. I have booked the usual table for you and your dad at the plaza." She smiled at me.

Jillian was an exception. She was in her mid 20's and I have known her since the time she started as an intern here. A alcoholic father and a younger sister to look after, she is a younger sister to me.

" You and Jules can join us as well. You know my dad love you both." I smiled back at her.

"I know Addy but Jules needs help with her paper for her upcoming examination."

I walk out of my tall office building and breathe in the fresh evening air. Even though New York can be stuffy and chaotic, this helps me calm my head. Miles, my driver and security guy but above all that my most trusted confidant parked my car in-front of me.

......................

"I think you should settle down." Dad took a bite of his stake and looked up at me.

This wasn't anything new for me so I decided to let it go. " I will think about it Dad." The best way to avoid this conversation.

"You better think about it Son or else The Montgomery project is out of your hand and so is the position of CEO."

I could feel confusion clouding my mind. "What do you mean ?"

"I mean I had a chat with Mr Christian Montgomery today at Lunch. He is my friend from college if you remember. He mentioned something about you not being too serious when it comes to your life and that is holding him back from considering you as the best candidate for the the project."

I glared at him and rubbed my temple. "I have put my life in DA and he thinks I am not serious just because I am not married." I drank the remaining whiskey from my glass.

"Calm down, Son. Chris is a man of old thinking and for him a man without a wife isn't too serious. If you don't get the Montgomery project the board will be disappointed. They already consider you a playboy billionaire in the media's words and that's what bothering Chris as well."

I can feel a headache building up. Obviously the media exaggerated every fucking thing. But I always keep my business and my personal life separate. How did it get so messed up all of a sudden?

I covered my face with my palm and took a deep breath. "What is the solution then? I find a wife and settle down? Will that show every fucking person how fucking serious I am? Which my fucking hard work couldn't show ?"

I look at my father anger boiling inside me like molten lava.

All these years of hard work and working my ass of for DA was all useless. My Dream project was inches away for me and an absolutely unnecessary clause was the hurdle separating me from it.

My Father took a sip from his glass of wine. He gave me a soft smile. "Leave it to me Son."

Today is October 14th, my birthday. I returned to New York after months away, dragging my suitcase through the biting wind, but the VIP pickup zone where my husband's Maybach usually idled was empty. When I finally let myself into our Upper East Side penthouse, I didn't find a cake or a "welcome home" banner. Instead, I found my husband, Caden, kneeling on the floor, helping our five-year-old daughter wrap a massive gift for my half-sister, Adalynn. Caden didn't even look up when I walked in; he was too busy laughing with the girl who had already stolen my father's legacy and was now moving in on my family. "Auntie Addie is a million times better than Mommy," my daughter Elara chirped, clutching a plush toy Caden had once forbidden me from buying for her. "Mommy is mean," she whispered loudly, while Caden just smirked, calling me a "drill sergeant" before whisking her off to Adalynn's party without a second glance. Later that night, I saw a video Adalynn posted online where my husband and child laughed while mocking my "sensitive" nature, treating me like an inconvenient ghost in my own home. I had spent five years researching nutrition for Elara's health and managing every detail of Caden's empire, only to be discarded the moment I wasn't in the room. How could the man who set his safe combination to my birthday completely forget I even existed? The realization didn't break me; it turned me into ice. I didn't scream or beg for an explanation. I simply walked into the study, pulled out the divorce papers I'd drafted months ago, and took a black marker to the terms. I crossed out the alimony, the mansion, and even the custody clause-if they wanted a life without me, I would give them exactly what they asked for. I left my four-carat diamond ring on the console table and walked out into the rain with nothing but a heavily encrypted hard drive. The submissive Mrs. Holloway was gone, and "Ghost," the most lethal architect in the tech world, was finally back online to take back everything they thought I'd forgotten.
