"Mom, the day I divorced Damian was because I had no idea he came from a billionaire family. Didn't you see how geeky Damian looked back then? Ever since he was in school, Damian has had an unappealing appearance. I never imagined that nerdy guy could be a billionaire," Camille explained. Mrs. Smith snorted in annoyance at her daughter's response. "And Damian's secretary is incredibly irritating. I can't stand him. Have you tried flirting with Damian to win him back? After all, you were Damian's first love." "An older woman like you would more easily sway him than me. I don't know what Damian has been up to since our divorce, but he seems completely different. Even when we accidentally bump into each other at the company, Damian acts like he doesn't know me," Camille replied with bitterness. "I heard that Damian is getting remarried. Is it true? Who is Damian marrying? We don't have much time left," Mrs. Smith anxiously inquired. "Mom, calm down. Damian is marrying Davina. Davina h
Davina slowly opened the doors to each room in the old hospital, determined to locate the CCTV room. Spotting the room, she barged in, presenting her lawyer identification card with authority. "Transfer all the CCTV footage from the past month onto this USB drive," Davina commanded, giving a firm order. The CCTV operator appeared surprised and unsure of how to proceed. In frustration, Davina tossed the USB drive onto the security guard's desk. "Do this immediately, or I will take legal action for obstructing justice," Davina threatened, her words hanging in the air. Overcome with fear, the CCTV monitoring officer nodded and quickly transferred the data to the USB drive. Davina remained in the room, completing the task without further delay. Having secured the crucial CCTV evidence, Davina reached the hospital administration desk. Displaying her lawyer identification once again, she demanded honest answers. "Answer my questions truthfully, or I will sue you for obstructing justice.
"For you, this marriage is a means of seeking revenge. You took away a fiancée from someone who had already taken your wife. By marrying me, you see it as an act of vengeance. Perhaps you believe you have nothing to fear from their retaliation because you are superior to them. Everyone acknowledges your power and perceives you as the epitome of perfection," Davina poured out her hidden pains and frustrations, her voice filled with deep sadness."But what about me? I understand that I can serve as the key to your revenge. Without me, your plans may not unfold as flawlessly. However, our circumstances are vastly different," she continued, her voice trembling with vulnerability.Damian listened intently, not uttering a word to interrupt Davina's fragmented confessions. He absorbed every heartfelt expression she had bottled up for so long, allowing her emotions to flow freely."All these years, I have strived and toiled relentlessly to become a lawyer at the most prestigious law firm in t
In the dead of night, Damian summoned Nick and Detective Mark for an urgent meeting. He revealed all the evidence Davina had provided, and together, they meticulously pieced the sequence of events. Detective Mark was taken aback by the extensive evidence Davina had gathered on her own, but Nick was even more astonished."Just earlier today, I cleaned up the mess Davina created at the hospital. I spoke with the hospital director and ensured he received the compensation money. I also tried to question the director, but it seems he is unaware of most of the details," Nick shared the results of his day's work.Nick pressed the start button on the remote control and projected surveillance camera footage capturing Davina's self-inflicted injuries. He showcased the entire journey from Davina's admission to her discharge from the hospital."I was truly shocked when I saw this," Nick said with disbelief."I've always had faith in Davina. Ever since she showed me firsthand evidence of Camille's
Davina and Nick released each other from their embrace, and the once-warm atmosphere turned tense. Today, Nick addressed Davina as ‘Nick’, not as Damian's personal assistant."What gives you the right to say I'm marrying Damian because I like him?" Davina questioned, her tone filled with displeasure."What right do I have?" Nick scoffed sarcastically. "I have the right to say it because I know it. You haven't been able to let go of your feelings for Damian since you turned seventeen, Davina. Can't I call Damian your first love?"Davina stared at Nick in disbelief at his words. The fact that they had attended the same alma mater as Damian was trustworthy. "Did you know me twelve years ago?"Nick shoved his hands into his pockets. "You knew me, Davina. I've been by Damian's side all this time, so I'm the first to notice what happens around him."This conversation topic still took Davina aback. "I never noticed you during university.""The first reason is that Damian and I had different
Damian and Davina approached Atlantis and Caroline. In her first encounter with Mrs. Wilson, Caroline possessed the beauty of an artist. Davina found herself momentarily captivated by Caroline's allure as she wondered if Caroline, indeed, was an artist. Atlantis looked dashing in his navy suit, which complemented Caroline's elegant navy long dress. Davina recalled Damian mentioning that coordinating Caroline and Atlantis's attire without a stylist was unnecessary. The distinct contrast in hair color between Atlantis, whose locks were entirely gray, and his wife further accentuated their significant age difference of twenty years. Davina was genuinely taken aback by Caroline's youthful appearance, which seemed to defy the age difference between her and Damian. "Welcome to the Wilson family, darling," Caroline warmly embraced Davina, who thanked her with a smile, appreciating the warm welcome from her mother-in-law. Subsequently, Davina embraced Atlantis. Before she could respond or i
"I know Davina graduated from the same school as I did. However, I honestly do not remember her," Damian confessed with honesty.Observing Damian's lack of recollection of Davina from before she became Camille’s lawyer, Nick couldn't help but smile sympathetically, understanding the significance of Davina's first love story."Has Davina really known me for twelve years?" Damian asked, his confusion evident in his expression.As the main witness who had seen the story unfold between Davina and Damian, which began twelve years ago, Nick suggested, "You could ask Davina. I do not believe I have the authority to answer that question.""I will inquire with Davina later. She seems exhausted, and I do not want to disturb her at this time."Damian took a sip of his Americano coffee and furrowed his brows, still not accustomed to the bitter taste of the beverage.The conversation between Damian and Nick concluded as they spotted a black luxury sedan pulling into the mansion. Noticing Damian re
Davina was taken aback by the sight of Damian awaiting her outside the Atlantis workroom. Observing Damian's evident concern, she tried to stifle a smile. It appeared as if her discussion with Atlantis had recently concluded.Drawing nearer, Damian inquired, "Are you alright? What did my father discuss with you? Did he say anything odd or offensive?"Davina led Damian away from the vicinity of the Atlantis workroom. Although she knew Atlantis could not overhear their conversation, she deemed it inappropriate to discuss Atlantis so openly in front of his workspace."Ask me privately. I'm fine, and your father did not utter anything strange. He wished me well as I became a part of the Wilson family," Davina responded.Skeptical, Damian furrowed his brow, disbelieving his wife's words. Being aware of Atlantis' less-than-kind personality, especially towards new acquaintances, Damian was sure there was more to the story. If Atlantis were being friendly, Damian would surely see through the
