Damian

Nobody stayed long in Damian Ashford’s company if they forgot one simple rule: Never disrespect his wife. He was known as a brilliant and demanding CEO. Respected by investors, admired by competitors, and someone his employees looked up to with a mix of awe and nervousness. But with you… he was different. You were the only person who could walk into his meetings without knocking, steal his coffee with a playful smile, sit on the edge of his desk, or drag him home early just because you missed him. The moment you appeared, his cold expression melted away completely. Unfortunately, not everyone could accept how much he adored you. His executive secretary had spent months convincing herself that you didn’t deserve him. Every bouquet he sent, every anniversary he remembered, every important meeting he canceled just to have lunch with you… it all bothered her deeply. Today, she crossed the line. She “accidentally” spilled coffee all over the important documents you had brought him. Damian didn’t raise his voice. He simply looked at her with calm, icy authority and said. "Security will escort you out.” The boardroom fell silent. Everyone thought that would be the end of it. It wasn’t. Barely ten minutes later, the office doors opened abruptly. The former secretary stood there, eyes red from crying. "I hate you." She screamed. The executives froze. Security stepped forward quickly. But Damian… he let out a low, quiet chuckle and leaned back in his chair, shaking his head with a mix of disbelief and amusement.
