SHAMELESS ✔(Damian Wayne Fanfic)

SHAMELESS

"Good morning everyone." Valarie says taking a  seat at the front of the long table

"Nice to see you here Valarie."Says one of the board members. "To what do we owe the pleasure?"

"I'm glad you asked Mr.Oliver." she smiles looking to Damian who nodded his head at her. "Tonight V.E cosmetics will be joined together with Wayne enterprises."

There was silence and then a sarcastic laugh let out of one the board members mouth. "You can not be serious Ms.Ellington. This cosmetics company has no business signing over with Wayne Enterprises. What are they willing to offer us?"

"Please tell." Another says. "This is the first time we've seen you take your job as CEO in a long time. Do you know what you're doing?"

"I do." Valarie says, her nails biting into her palms. "They have offered us resources. Our cosmetics can go beyond Gotham City. If we are trying to dominate the cosmetics world then we need to make investments."

"Sweetie." Said Oliver looking back at the group then at her. "this has to be a joke. Shelby has been the one taking your place since you haven't been here taking this seriously. I don't think you have the right to come in and change all of that."

''Oh Mr. Oliver." Valarie replies shaking her head and standing to her feet. "I can. My family left this company to me. "

"Sweetie, they had no choice. They're dead don't you remember? They had to leave it to the last Ellington."

Swallowing the lump in her throat, Valarie fought every urge to punch him.

Damian POV

I watched her finger nails dig more into her skin. She was keeping her cool and restraining but the look on her face made me want to punch him for her.

"I was on that plane." Valarie says sternly. "Do you remember Mr.Oliver? I was the one who watched my family pick who got to take the parachutes. I am not Vincent, Virginia, Veronica or any of my other siblings."

"What would your parents think, Sweetie." he asks

Valarie was already annoyed enough. Why'd he have to go and call her sweetie again...

Just as her clenched fist released, two people walked in the door followed by an out of breath Janice.

"I'm sorry Ms.Ellington. I tried to stop them." Janice says, holding a binder full papers.

"I'll take it." I offer, holding out my hand and she gladly placed it there. "

"Everything you asked for is in there." Sh whispers.

"Then you tow must be Shelby Bright and George turner." I say, placing the binder on the table, looking at the blonde female and the dark haired male.

"I am." George says looking pissed while Valarie looked through the binder.

""You can't fire us." Says Shelby. "You have no right."

"According to this, you been late for a long time. I would expect more form you Shelby as my CFO."

"Look, you can fire him." Shelby says pointing to George. "But you need me. I handle all the money and-"

"I made myself clear." Valarie replies, not giving her time to finish. "You are both fired."

"Who will you get to take our place?" asked George.

"Janice will be the CFO." I say as my jaw clenched.

"Sorry Mr.Wayne but you can';t do that. You aren't in charge here." Shelby spat.

"What a great idea." Valarie says flipping her hair over her shoulder and walking over to them. "Janice is now the Financial Officer."

"Ms. Ellington I beg you, I need-"

"Um yeah, don't care. Your fired end of story." Valarie says slamming the binder onto the table making everyone in the room jump. "Shall I have security or can I tryst you two can escort yourselves out?"

Angrily Shelby and George walked out mumbling.

Leaning on the table Valarie looked at everyone. "Now, anyone else want to follow behind them?"

I let out a small chuckle and my insides began to scramble. Something about the way she makes every word count and the fact that it gives me chills.

It's interesting and that passion in her eyes...

Gosh she's an angel

+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_

"Wow." I say as we leave the room. "That was...um...fantastic." I chuckle, rubbing he back of my neck

"A compliment?" she questions with a joking laugh. "Do you think I was to mean? did I go overboard?'

"No." I reply shaking my head. "I would have done the same."

She nods and looks back down at the binder. "You'll meet Garret. He was my fathers assistant." Valarie says stopping in front of his door.

"Valarie Ellington." He coos opening the door with a  smile. "oh darling it's been so long since I've seen your pretty face." He hugs her and she hugs him back.

My jaw tightens as I stare. I felt my eyebrows narrow and my fist clench. What was wrong with this man? He was about five years older than her and he was-

"Oh and you've brought company." He says looking to me. "Quite a looker aye.?" he says nudging her.

"Damian-"

"Wayne." Garret cuts me off. "I know who you are.Son of Bruce Wayne and so very single?" He asks lifting his brow.

"Garret stop." Valarie says elbowing him in his arm. "He's a guest."

"Fine whatever you say." Garrett replies fixing his glasses. "Now, is there any other reason you are here besides to look at my beautiful face?''

"Um yes. I need you to confirm these and give me a list of all the names. By the end of today would be great." She says placing the binder on his desk.

"Of course darling. I love a good ol' office gossip." He jokes kissing her cheek. "We need to get together. Do some shopping aye?"

"Sure. Just plan a day and call." Valarie replies smiling before they hug again.

"Great seeing you again Val."

"You too."

Then we leave. I begin to laugh and I feel Valarie's eyes on me.

"What's so funny?"

"Garret...he's um...-"

"Gay?" she says with a grin. Seeing the look on my face she nods and shakes her head. "Yeah. He used to go shopping with Violet and me. And Vander used to have a crush on him."

"Uh huh." I nod and then our eyes meet. "I just thought that you two-"

''What?" she asks with a look of confusion.

''Nothing." I say and walk ahead of her.

What do you think?? Let me know in the comments.
