Damien's POV
I flutter my eyes open when I feel the sudden seeping of sunlight into my room. The flash is directly on my face and I know someone is behind it. As soon as I adjust my eyes to the bright light, Paige drops a large file on my bed, almost slapping my face.
I glare at her as she stands with arms akimbo. I yawn loudly and sit upright, laying my head on the headboard. I wonder what is wrong now. Last week, we fought because of the girl I had sex with in the club.
We fight almost every week, she is either accusing me of being unfaithful or complaining that I am not giving her enough attention. She loves nagging and I have threatened her with a divorce when she does that again.
I married her for a reason, not because I really wanted a wife and now that I have achieved my aim, I don't even like her no matter how sexy she tries to look. I am tired of her and getting pleasure from some other woman is what I want.
"Why did you wake me up?" I question her with eyes closed and my head upward.
I didn't hear any response from her, so I open my eyes and tilt my head to the side where she is now standing with folded arms and a sad look on her face.
"Why did you wake me up this early, Paige?" I repeat.
"This early?" She opens her eyes wide and begins to laugh sarcastically. I turn to pick up my phone so I can see the time. It is 11 am.
"You've been in bed all morning. I am not surprised because I am sure you were awake all night, f***ing your whores", I can feel her anger.
I wonder how she always gets to know whenever I have sex with a lady. I brought a lady home last night but I was careful not to let her know. I came back last night from the club late and I was sure she was already in bed. After the hours of sex with the girl, she left before dawn and I went to sleep. Now I am sure she was spying on us or she has a spy among the maids.
I am really in no mood for her morning nagging. I have been in California ever since the award night. I needed space so I came back home but now I feel it is time to give Paige space again. I need to go back to New York to finish what I have started. Paige needs to learn her lessons and know that I married her for a reason.
I am about to warn her not to start with any nagging when my phone rings. It is Donovan.
Donovan doesn't call me for any business-related reason, he calls when it has to do with new information about my revenge or about the home in New York. I wonder what he has to say now. I am hoping it is going to be good news.
"Donovan."
"Boss, good day", he greets politely. I imagine him bowing down in greeting with his huge body.
"How are you doing?"
"I am doing good. I have news for you", he says.
"Really? What is it?" I am having a feeling it has to do with Aidan.
I hear Paige shift her weight on the ground, she isn't happy that I am not attending to her first. I have even forgotten she is here for a reason that I still don't know what it is. From the serious look on her face, I know it is important, maybe she wants money.
"Yes, boss. Anna had a baby two months ago", he informs him.
"What?" I exclaim. I am amazed at the time.
