Chapter 56

The sound of a ringtone jolted Damien awake, and this was a mistake because as soon as he jumped up from the bed, his already sore head began to ache even more terribly than when he had first fallen asleep.

Damien groaned in pain.

After the last hangover he'd had some time back, he had vowed not to drink so much anymore, here he was again, with a blurry memory and a splitting headache.

It also occurred to him that he had slept through the morning, hence missing his responsibilities at the office.

He wasn’t bothered though because it was not like he couldn't take a day off, as he was the boss after all, but still he didn't like to leave work for lousy reasons such as a hangover. That was of his own doing, and he didn't believe in his responsibilities suffering for his own mistake. 

Sighing, he turned to his phone which had begun to ring a second time, and stretching out his hand to pick it up he saw that it was his mother calling.
