The Billionaire's Unwanted Bride

CHAPTER 56

Tessa's POV

I am a strong woman and I won't let anything break me down, not even Aidan. After crying for a while at home, I decided to come to see  things for myself and here I am. 

I reapplied my makeup and asked the driver to drive me to the party with Zoe who was looking at me with pity. I don't need any pity. Aidan has just trampled upon me and I am going to deal with the idiot, I no longer care if he is the man I love or not.

I am no longer here in the event because of Aidan, he is no longer the reason why I am here. I am here to satisfy my curiosity, I want to see the girl Aidan brought to the party in place of me. I want to see the person that took my place. I want to see how worthy she is. I want to see who she is and what she is.

That will determine my next line of action.

I ask the driver to drop me off at a little distance away from the entrance and I take bold steps out of the car when it comes to a stop. I didn't wait for Zoe before walking to the back of the hall. I have no intention of taking the right entrance because of the media. 

They might want to interview me and hear what I have to say about Aidan bringing another girl to the party. I had told a friend of mine working with a media company that Aidan and I were getting married and I saw it in the newspapers the day before. I did it on purpose, I wanted the news to disseminate that I was going to be his bride soon. 

I didn't see this coming. I have humiliated myself. I have no idea how I can explain these to the people I have bragged this issue to. I see a man in a suit with his back to me and a phone on his ears. He is pacing to and fro, making a call.

He looks familiar and as I walk closer, I see his face when he turns back. I gasp when I see his face. "Damien?"

He looks angry and he didn't look like he recognizes me. What is he doing here? Why is he angry? We met just two days ago and he did not tell me he was coming to the event. Is he the Damien Trevor was talking about? Is he the opposition of Aidan?

"Damien?" I call again.

He looks away with his hands in his pocket. The man before me doesn't look like the man I find myself craving for his touch of recent. He is my newest attraction, taking over my desire for Aidan and his father. 

After the sex with him at that party, I found myself going back to find him because I missed his touches, even though I didn't want him to repeat what he said to me that day. After much contemplation, I decided to go to meet him and have the last sex with him, that way I can get rid of my stupid lust for him.

When he gazes at me, I see a flash of guilt. He removes his hand from the pocket and begins to walk towards me. I am thinking he is going to stop in front of me and explain what is happening but I am shocked to see him walking past me.

"Damien?" I call him again. He didn't stop walking nor turn back to look at me. "What the hell is happening? Why are you here?" I shout in frustration. He stops walking without turning back.

"What are you doing here, Damien? Are you the Damien....."
