At this moment, a lady appeared from behind. Damon recognised her as the receptionist Brandon spoke with earlier. He was standing at a distance from them when Brandon was speaking to her earlier hence it was possible for the woman not to have noticed him"Show me your membership card" She lifted her lips in disdain and spoke rudely to DamonDamon looked around for any sign of Brandon. The least he wanted in his life was more drama. He already had enough on his plate and didn't have the strength to waste on petty issues" If you have no membership card, it's better you leave right now. Or else, I won't hesitate to call security to throw you out. We need to make sure this place is clear of trash before Mr Nathan arrives" The receptionist wasn't exactly sure what the situation was, but since the people there were all pointing fingers at Damon, she'd be a fool not to point fingers as well. Especially since everyone on the floor were top-specialities of the country Brandon was the one that

All heads turned to the entrance of the hall. Damon had one of his hands dipped into his pocket, while the other was leisurely swinging beside him. And next to him was Oliver. Damon's brown hair was styled into a quiff with an undercut at the back. A dangling cross hung on his right earlobe. He was dressed in a typical black tux with a black inner turtleneck top. Although there wasn't much design to the tux, it was well-fitted and looked as though it was exclusively made for him alone Oliver wore a tux as well, but with a white inner collar-shirt. It was the first time Damon had dressed so formally. With his new change in style, he looked even more identical to Oliver. If not for Oliver's white hair and his aging signs, they could have been mistaken for each other As they walked side to side in a rhythmic gait, everyone watched in wonder It was the first time in years Oliver had shown himself publicly. Of course, the netizens weren't aware of the illness he was battling Back wh

"Get your flthy hands off me. You're arresting the wrong person. This snitch should be the one getting handcuffed" Baron tried to wiggle himself away from the policemen but he was already handcuffed and couldn't do much "Damon! Tell them the truth and stop playing them!" Baron yelled as he got taken away Damon felt a tinge of guilt inside of him. Everything Baron said was precise. He was fooling everyone! But asides guilt, he felt honoured. He didn't even have to raise a finger. Oliver and Brandon stood up for him. He felt fulfilled.Even though he knew who the real mastermind was. Mrs Evans. He wasn't sure how she was aware that Baron was planning something. But she handled it well. " We're sorry for the intrusion. Please, carry on with the celebration" Oliver said out loud The guests went on and acted like nothing happened. Of course, the only reason what happened at the club the previous day didn't spread was because no one dared to speak of what happened. Just like today, no o

The people in the company were still chattering and gossiping about Damon. Even the receptionist left her work to join in the gossipThis was the atmosphere that welcomed Jeremy. His presence wasn't even noticed until he harrumphed and said "I don't pay all of you to chatter" The floor immediately fell into silence as everyone went back to their work. Everyone gulped internally and prayed Jeremy wouldn't make a mountain out of a molehill. No one was expecting him to return to the country so early. Thus, they were relaxed, and weren't alarmed when they were gossiping Jeremy ruled with an iron fist. He didn't have the tolerance for any kind of slack. His features were soft and delicate, which made him appear gentle. Deep inside, he was neither gentle nor delicate. " What could be the reason for all of you to leave your work to chit-chat instead?" Jeremy dipped one of his hands in his pocket and walked towards the receptionist " S-Sir. Mr Nathan was here earlier. So, we got a little

Throughout the rest of the day, Damon spent his time researching and working on his knowledge. He was cooped up in his study room and didn't even realise when the day fell dark until Margaret called him to come out for dinner He concluded what he was working on and went to the dining area. There, he met Oliver sipping his ginger tea with a smile on his face. He happily stuffed a spoonful of food into his mouth "Grandfather, are you expecting someone?" Damon asked as he took his seat. Next to Oliver, there was a clean set of plate and cutlery positioned on the table "Oh yes! Your uncle has returned to the country. He called earlier to tell me he would visit tonight. That lad almost never comes home" Oliver replied Without any clear reason, at the mention of Nathan's uncle, Jeremy, a chill ran down Damon's spine. The air on his skin stood and his heartbeat palpitated. " How was your first day at the company? Did you find anything too difficult to handle?" Oliver asked, cutting Damo
