Atlantis' words pierced through Davina's emotions, shaking her self-esteem. She couldn't help but feel that Damian would be furious if he heard what Atlantis had said. It was clear that Atlantis had chosen this place for their meeting because he wanted to avoid Damian's wrath.
From the start, Damian had no idea that Atlantis and Caroline never accepted Davina as their daughter-in-law. Damian was aware that his parents weren't friendly, but he never anticipated that things would escalate to this extent.
"What kind of expectations do you have? What do you hope to find a daughter-in-law who perfectly meets all your requirements?" Davina asked calmly.
Davina had not anticipated that this situation would be even more challenging than arguing with a prosecutor in court.
Atlantis smiled wryly; negotiating with Davina seemed more straightforward than dealing with Damian.
"First, your background is unclear. Second, your profession and income. Third, your so

Sensing something amiss, she opened her eyes in surprise to find herself resting all night with Damian's thigh as her pillow.Realizing she was only clad in her underwear under the blanket, feeling a mix of confusion and concern, Davina pressed her body closer to the blanket that enveloped her.When did Damian arrive at her studio apartment? How did he manage to get in? Had he broken the lock on the door?Damian had drifted off to sleep while sitting up, but his sensitive nature immediately roused him when he felt Davina's head move."Hey, you're awake," Damian rasped, the sound of a just-woken voice."Yeah," Davina blinked, suddenly feeling self-conscious in front of Damian.Without removing the blanket that covered her, Davina quickly adjusted her position to sit.

Davina struggled to come up with an excuse to tell Damian this time. She glanced at Damian, who had been staring at her intently. All of Davina's suspicious movements were visible to him.Damian patiently waited for Davina's response. It seemed difficult for her to answer his question this time."We played golf together. I tried my hand at it, but it didn't go well. I've never learned golf before," Davina tried to convey the truth, although it was not entirely honest."Played golf together?" Damian frowned."Yes. Caroline lent me her golf club. If you don't believe me, you can ask her," Davina insisted."Then what did you talk about?" Damian was still unsatisfied with Davina's answer."Your father asked me about my work and suggested I play golf. After that, I stopped for an ice cream before returning to the studio apartment. The rest is what you already know," Davina concluded her story.Damian fell silent. He couldn't help but wonde

I can take a taxi home from work later."Damian insisted, "Don't bother with a taxi. I'll try to pick you up from work later."Davina looked at Damian, surprised and happy. Despite his busy schedule, Damian always made an effort to prioritize her.Damian turned to her and asked, "Why aren't you answering?

Unaware that she was your wife, Director Marcel introduced her as his fiancée," the female employee confessed as she knelt before Damian, revealing the truth behind the slanderous rumors that had tainted Damian and Davina's reputation."Informing this company's employees about Davina's role as my wife has been a part of my introduction since assuming the CEO position on my first day. How could you not remember?" Damian asked in a sarcastic tone, not losing his composure."I deeply regret that I cannot recall your wife clearly, and I did not have a clear view of the woman speaking with Director Marcel," the female employee expressed her remorse.Damian chuckled, pretending to display disappointment.

Marcel gazed longingly at the computer screen, where a graph displayed a downward trend. As he heard a knock at the door, Marcel allowed the person to enter. He furrowed his brow when he saw Maggie standing in his office room."Maggie?" Marcel raised both eyebrows, noticing that Maggie seemed different this time. He couldn't help but be drawn to her outfit today - a short shirt and skirt that exuded sexiness."So, Director Marcel, is spreading rumors about CEO Damian's wedding part of your plan? It seems like the whole employee is reacting strongly," Maggie began, playing her role."You've figured it out?" Marcel smirked."I would have to be a fool not to," Maggie replied, moving closer to Marcel."Does Damian know that you're secretly taking pictures of him?" Marcel inquired."Of course not. CEO Damian is too preoccupied with the new product launch deadline. He doesn't have time to worry about me," Maggie explained.Marcel smiled with satisfaction as Maggie boldly approached him. He

Damian inquired, his voice laden with anticipation."He trusted me entirely.

I knew I could count on you," Damian praised, a satisfied smirk playing on his lips as he observed the data displayed on his laptop screen."But for now, maintain your role until the game is complete.
