Chapter 55

Althaia 

“Trust me, Damiano. I’m fine to go to work. I’ve even slept so much that I’m awake this early.” I said as I got dressed.

“Keep it closed.” Damiano had a frown on his face as he sat on the end of the bed.

“You’re a businessman. You, out of all people, should know that it’s bad for business if I just keep it closed.” I raised a brow and walked towards him. I stepped in between his legs and his hands rested right on my ass.

“I will write a check for your losses. Keep it closed.” He insisted.

“Look at you; throwing money at the problem.” I laughed.

“Usually works.” He smirked.

“Yeah? Well, it doesn’t work for me. People have their orders ready, and I kind of need to be there to hand them their purchases.” I pointed out.

“You’re pregnant. You shouldn’t be working at all.”

“It doesn’t mean I can’t work. You know what, I’m not even going to discuss this with you anymore.” I shook my head, but still smiled.
