“No,” Damian answered without hesitation.

“What?” Harris looked at Damian in disbelief. “Then, how brave of you to go here even if you are not in a high-ranking position, huh!”

“Remember the guy who humiliated me in the accounting office while you were not around? It is him.” Cassandra stood up and flirtatiously clung her hands to Harris’ arm, intentionally pressing her chest against him. “Can you take revenge on him for me?”

“Is that so?” Harris asked, gritting his teeth, annoyed. “Then you are dead now.” He looked at Damian intently.

However, Damian only shook his head, and the side of his lips rose. “I don’t bring any personal grudges in business and work, so whatever issue you have against me, you can contact me after business hours, although I’m still busy on other things after this.”

“You—” Harris was about to react, but Damian didn't even let him finish his sentence.

“Let’s go back to our main problem here.” Damian turned his direction toward Jeffrey and asked, “Are you sure he

    “What is your order, Dollie?” Harris asked Dollie, who looked annoyed as she kept her gaze on the window.“Just water,” she answered coldly.“Are you sure?” Harris raised an eyebrow. “All of us are having tea, and you just like water?”“Yeah.” Dollie made a bombastic side eye to Harris, irritated with his question—Or rather, his existence. “I ordered a gourmet meal, too. It should be enough.”“Well…” Harris shrugged as Dollie’s gaze went back to the window, admiring the view. He looked at the menu, his brows furrowing. “For a restaurant in this place, I think they are pricing their menu too much.”“I saw from the reviews that the tea and snacks here are delicious. Maybe that’s why the prices are like those in the City,” said one of Cassandra's friends.“Hmm. You may be right, but I still find this ridiculous.” Harris smirked and called the waiter, Jeffrey. “I would like to order this, this, and this…” He pointed at their orders as he spoke again. “And I would like a Strawberry Herbal

    “OKAY.” Dollie stood up and wiped her mouth using a face towel, continuing to ignore Cassandra. “The gourmet meal is delicious, anyway. If only I knew that you were working in this restaurant, I would have ordered more.”“There is always a next time for everything,” Damian answered, and Dollie only nodded while smiling. “For now, you should leave and rest.”“No, you are not going to leave us alone, Dollie! Not this way!” Cassandra fumed, her voice laced with frustration and anger. “Block her way!” she added, signaling her two friends.They stood up as they were about to hold Dollie on both sides, but stopped when Damian approached them in his intimidating aura.“Touch her, and I will crack all your bones,” Damian said, his tone menacing, and his gaze dark. “I don’t know how to differentiate gender when I’m mad, and if I were you, I would sit silently and not do anything.”“Don’t listen to him, okay? He is just all talk!” Cassandra told them, but the two women already stopped in their

    After going to Dollie’s dorm, Ava returned to the Medivien mansion.“Ugh! That spoiled brat bitch!” Ava exclaimed as she threw herself on the couch. “I wonder why she is acting like that when she is always afraid whenever I come to see her before. What happened? What could be the reason why Dollie was too confident now?”“You came to see Dollie at this hour?” Suddenly, Ethan appeared from the kitchen, holding a cup of coffee in his right hand. “You are so threatened by her existence, and maybe that is the reason why she thinks highly of herself now. Don’t let it show.”“I’m not threatened, okay? I’m just annoyed with her overall existence!” Ava sulked, crossing her arms. “Every time I see her, I remember how our family became broken, and yet, Dad was still treating her properly—Like she was not an illegitimate child!”“It is because she is intelligent, and among the three of us, she has the most characteristics that Dad was looking for as his heir, or a right-hand woman he can trust.”

    “I’m pregnant,” Ava spoke in a low tone. “And you are the father of my child.”Carson was not able to talk back, feeling astounded by what Ava told him. “Say it again?”“You heard me, and I hope you won’t tell me that you are not ready or something for things like this, can I?” Ava said, raising an eyebrow. “People will not be weirded out if they knew about this. We are about to be married, after all.”“Ava! This isn’t what we have planned!” Carson shouted, gritting his teeth in annoyance. He moved back and forth from his bedroom as he felt uneasy. “I told you to use contraceptives, didn’t I? Why are you being so careless?!”“I forgot, okay? I remembered drinking pills a few days ago but it was already late. Our family doctor told me that I feel nauseous nowadays because I’m pregnant!” Ava retorted, clenching her fists.It was Ethan’s suggestion to tell Carson that she is pregnant so he will marry her immediately—whether he likes it or not.“You and your useless reasons, Ava! I told y

    “What? Come where?” Ava asked with her brows furrowed. “I thought we were going to talk about our marriage now?” She looked at the guards, and her body shivered in fear. “What are you planning, Carson?!”“Do you think you are the only one who pulled that pregnancy trick on me, huh?” Carson said, clenching his jaw. “Tons of women have already told me that they are pregnant. Why? Because they wanted me to marry me for my money, and you are not different.”“How rude!” Ava shouted in disbelief. “Did you forget that we are in our mansion now? How dare you talk harshly with me?!”“I will apologize formally when I prove that you are indeed pregnant,” Carson said and extended her hand. “So, if you are telling the truth yesterday, come with me to the OB-GYNE I know, and prove to me that you are pregnant with my child.”‘Shit. Shit!’ Ava wanted to step back and run away, but if she did that, it would be the end of everything for her. ‘If I decline, Carson will be doubtful about my pregnancy. Bu

    AFTER ONE month, Damian was able to run the new subsidiary well. He managed to fix all the problems, directly addressing the customers’ feedback—especially the negative ones, and now, the Tea and Treasure Restaurant is one of the most successful start-up restaurants in the food industry.“I can’t believe how fast time flies, Sir. I still remember your first day here, but this is your last day now, and you are going to leave us,” Gehlee, one of the cashiers, said, her voice laced with sadness.Damian smiled and shook his head. “I told you all, didn’t I? I will come back after my graduation. I just find it hard to go back and forth from here and there to study and work here.”To be honest, Damian didn’t want to leave this job. He enjoyed managing a restaurant business and seeing the happiness in the commoners’ eyes whenever they served them. However, after pondering, he realized that his body could not keep up with his workload.His health—physical and mental—should be prioritized first

    HOURS LATER, Damian was already finished with his tasks. He was stretching his arms when Violy, one of his closest friends, went in his direction.“You still work efficiently,” Violy said after seeing the empty queue on Damian’s tasks. “That’s great. As expected from someone who got the Outstanding Person of The Year award.”Damian scratched his neck, feeling embarrassed by Violy suddenly opening up about that topic. Violy noticed it, and she chuckled. “Don’t be shy about it. All of the achievements you have now were because of your hard work,” she said, smiling. “Why don’t you take the managerial position that was offered to you before? Even just for part-time?”“It still stands?” Damian asked, his forehead creasing.“Well, the offer never expires in the first place.” Violy shrugged. “As you can see, we are lacking event managers in the company, especially now that we have too many guests to accommodate. If you accept their offer, it could benefit the department, and it is a good ad

    Upon hearing that question, Ava couldn’t speak immediately. Her OB-GYNE said that there would be a hormonal imbalance as her pregnancy went on, and one of its effects was her mood swings.The baby bump isn’t visible yet, but ever since she became pregnant, everything started to irk her. But of course, she couldn’t say it to Damian. Her pregnancy was being kept a secret from everyone except the Medivien family, who also couldn’t believe her sudden pregnancy.She suddenly remembered the day when she told everyone about her pregnancy. Cielo almost had a heart attack, Ethan’s jaws fell in shock, Dollie almost cried, and she didn’t know why, while Helena smiled ear to ear, knowing how valuable Ava’s child would be.“Hey…Is this a part of your act?” Ethan asked, his voice laced with curiosity. “Because if it is a part of your acting, I can say you can audition now as an actress. I almost believed you—”“No,” Ava interrupted, looking Ethan in the eye. “I’m pregnant. It is for real.”And Etha

    Epilogue: The Last Retaliation

    THE hostage-taking Carter did in the warehouse spread in various news channels like wildfire. Everyone was shocked because of his sudden escape from prison, making the residents afraid for their safety, knowing that the management wasn’t doing their job properly to monitor the prisoners.With that, the warden and his apprentices, who were also under Carter’s authority, were fired from their jobs. They were replaced by a management who cared about their citizens, removing the patronage system in the prison, and bringing back justice at the same time.Due to Carter’s crimes being in high intensity, he was transferred to a high-security prison. Carter could only laugh as his mind was still in the past, thinking how rich and powerful he was, even though that wasn’t the case now.Carter had already gone insane, but it was only the beginning of his suffering.“At last, you finally arrived,” Catelyn, who was waiting in Carter’s cell, greeted. “Did you miss me?”“What are you doing here?” Cart

    Chapter 336: Let's End This Now

    THE lights were flickering, adding tension in the air, as Damian entered the warehouse alone. He doesn’t have any guns or other weapons with him, nor he didn’t call anyone like Carter instructed.Damian was on high alert as he continued walking when suddenly, two men wearing full black clothes started to approach him with their guns.‘Fuck,’ cursed Damian at the back of his mind, seeing how helpless he was right now.Especially after seeing Ava tied to the chair, his mouth gagged, while Catela is sleeping in the crib beside her.Despite the situation, he couldn’t give up. Damian needed to save himself along with Ava and Catela and end this fight with Carter so it wouldn’t repeat.The two men tied Damian’s hands and feet to the chair, but unlike Ava, they didn’t gag him.“It is so unusual to see how obedient you are. I never thought you could do it,” Carter, who appeared from the shadows, smirked upon seeing Damian being helpless. “That’s right. They will always be safe as long as you

    “That was not enough for all the bullshit you did to me before. But for now, let’s call it even," Damian said.Carson only shook his head as he wiped the blood on his lips before leaving the house. And the only thing that was running through his mind was how strong Damian’s punch was… before until now.THE NEXT morning, Carson didn’t just confess what he did to the board members, but he conducted a press conference to publicly apologize to Damian. He knew that Damian deserved to clear his name and regain his reputation, and although his public apology wasn’t enough, he still did it to show his sincerity.“Starting today, Carson Ferremento is now terminated as the CEO, and will face two years of suspension because of him ruining the Ferremento Corporation’s reputation,” Piper announced, her tone colder than usual. “The position will go back to Damian Giovanni Ferremento.”Carson smiled sadly, but he knew he needed to accept the consequences of his actions.However, since Damian had a

    “That bastard. He told you that even though you have a husband?” Carson asked, his teeth gritting.“Well, this is just an arranged marriage, and he knows it.” Ava shrugged. “To be honest, I would marry a man like him although he isn’t the richest, than stay with a puppet like you, who only knows how to follow someone else—”“Here,” Carson interjected, giving Ava the signed papers. “I will let you take Catela because I need to deal with something, but I will take her away from you once I'm done.”“Hah. As if I will let you do that.” Ava scoffed and rolled her eyes. “Thank you for this, Carson. Catela will benefit so much from this.”And as if Ava was waiting for this to happen, when she went again to their bedroom to take Catela, she already had her luggage with her and was talking to someone.“Yes, he already signed the divorce paper, and I’m all set…” Ava said, smiling from ear to ear. “Oh, your bodyguard is outside the house already? Alright. I will let him in.”Ignoring Carson, Ava

    After Carter went out of the house unnoticed, that was the only time Carson could breathe properly. He didn’t even realize he was suppressing his breath because of fear.‘Is that really the brother I used to be with ever since I was a child?’ Carson thought, his heart racing, as he leaned into a tree. ‘We are family. Why would he threaten me like that? Is the company and the organization more important to him than me?’And upon asking himself that question, Carson got his answer. Carter wouldn’t mind killing everyone who would be a hindrance to his plans, and he is not an exemption.His gaze went to the house—Something he had because of Carter. Everything he had was him, not giving Carson any chance to carve out his own identity. He was only known for his surname, and for all his careless actions when he was in teenager days.The only thing he had that wasn’t connected with Carter was Dollie, whom he took for granted, and now his family; Ava, his wife, and Catela, their child.“Ava,”

    Realizing that Damian needs him right now, Veron took his phone and called a number. It was someone he thought he would never talk with again.“Veron,” Charlie Wiles, the CEO of the Legion Mercenaries, called. “It has been a long time, huh? What do you need this time?”“I have to ask you for a favor,” Veron replied.“A favor?” Charlie raised an eyebrow. “If it is about our operations, I’m sorry, but I need to decline. You know that we can’t take clients in other countries other than Colossia, right?”“I know that. You are not taking me as a dumb person, aren’t you?” Veron shot back, his voice laced with irritation now. “I need someone I trust to do this task for me, and I’m willing to pay any amount you want for it.”“Any amount, huh? Talking to rich people is different.” Charlie chuckled on the other line, yet he became serious afterward. “But alright, deal. What is it that you want me to do?”“I want you to find Correl Ferremento’s location and kill him,” Veron commanded, his tone s

    “Carson,” Damian called as his eyes darkened in anger. “It is you, isn’t it?”“If you are asking about the new CEO of this company, yes. It’s me,” Carson answered, smirking, as he placed the documents he brought to the table. “Why? Are you surprised that a person who was once a happy-go-lucky like me would be chosen to replace you?”“Why would I be surprised if you planned everything for this to happen?” Damian shot back, the annoyance evident in his tone. “Seeing you in front of me now just strengthens my hunch. It was you who messed up with the data. How could you?”Carson’s smirk widened. He didn’t answer. Instead, he stood proudly in the middle with his arms folded.“I’m not here because of the shitty things you accuse me of, but because I have given the board of directors a proposal strategy that you can’t provide.” Carson slid the document in front of Damian. “Here. Look at this.”Damian didn’t move at first, but a few seconds later, he took the folder and looked at its contents

    “Young master,” James, whom Damian called, answered on the other line. “Young master Carson is still doing his old routine; working in his office the whole day and going home afterward.”“How certain are you?” Damian asked.James’ brows furrowed, but he still answered in a polite tone, “I’m always monitoring him, young master. I didn’t even let him out of my sight.”“I know, but something might have happened that slipped your notice,” Damian said, his tone low and serious. “The Ferremento Corporation is in chaos right now, and I’m sure Carson is involved with it. I need you to think carefully.”James obliged. The tip of his brows pressed harder on each other upon recalling the surveillance, and his lips widened as he remembered something.“There was one incident. A few days ago, Miss Ava Medivien bumped into me and caused a commotion. For a moment, I lost sight of young master Carson’s office,” confessed James. “But it was only for a few seconds.”“And that is the only amount of time t
