"Demian!"Demian didn't move at all when an exclamation sounded quite loud in his ears. It was his father's voice. "Sir, be careful," Niel said, swiftly holding Mr.Morgan's body, which was about to fall due to his unbalanced steps. This was what he was worried about. "Demian, is all the news true?" asked Morgan while looking worriedly at the cold figure sitting on the dining chair. He had been in his room when he was told that his son had come home. Morgan wanted to make sure that his son was okay after the shooting incident. "Just ask your favorite wife, Dad. She's the one who knows the truth about the news," Demian said casually, delegating the answer to Katty. Meanwhile, her hand kept rubbing the dog's head on her lap. Very obedient and also sweet. "W-what does this mean? Why me?" asked Katty stammering. Cold sweat instantly broke out all over her body. She panicked. "Why you? Of course it's you. Who else could it be? Your son?"BraakkkDylan pounded the table. He had had enou
"Mr.Demian, can we have a quick interview?"Demian's steps immediately stopped when a reporter managed to infiltrate his company. This was why he hated it when news spread about him. These news hunters would do everything they could to get information, including infiltrating areas they weren't supposed to be in. "Please move aside. Mr.Demian is in a hurry," Niel said, not letting the reporters disturb his boss's peace. He then looked at the security, moving his head to ask them to evict the person. "Sir, just a moment. We want to know your condition after the attack that happened that night. Everyone is very worried about you.""Everyone?""Yes, everyone. There were a lot of reports in the media. Some of them said that you had been shot. There were also reports that you survived thanks to the help of a foreign woman whose identity is still unknown. Please explain which news is the most accurate to the actual incident, sir. Just a little."Demian's jaw tightened as soon as he heard t
Inside his room, Dylan was sitting back and relaxing while watching a live television broadcast. There was no wind, no rain, and suddenly Demian made a clarification. This was very surprising considering his attitude of not liking to appear in front of the camera. And of course, it raised a lot of curiosity in Dylan's mind. "Is that asshole trying to get public sympathy after what happened to him last night?" said Dylan with a faint smile. "So weak. Not even a single wound on his body. Do you have to make a clarification like this?"[To prove whether the news is true or not, I promise to announce it to the media when I find the right companion. You can judge for yourselves whether or not the success of my business has anything to do with the marriage between company owners. Excuse me!"]Dylan's eyebrows knitted together as he heard Demian's last statement before leaving the conference room. There were disappointed journalists who felt unsatisfied with the conversation. There were eve
"Honey, how about we go see the woman who saved Demian. It feels unethical not to thank her in person. I'm afraid this will make people think badly of our family," Katty took Morgan to see the woman who was being applauded by many people. She wondered which foolish human would risk their life to protect that bastard."No need to bother. Demian's men would have solved this problem already," Morgan replied coldly.(You think I don't know the real purpose of asking me to go see that woman? Katty, I may be old, but that doesn't mean I'm stupid and ignorant. You came after Demian went live. This is enough proof that you have hidden intentions)"Yes, I know Demian can't stay silent, but what's the harm if we go there? After all, this will make our family's reputation better in the eyes of the public. Want to?"Morgan did not respond. He let Katty continue to babble and persuade him to go
Rosalind looked intently at the two men now standing by the bed. This man's features seemed familiar. Where had she seen him before?"I'm Morgan. The father of the man you saved the life of," Morgan said not wanting to make Rosalind feel curious."I'm Katty. Demian's mom." Katty joined in the introductions. The tail of her eye kept noticing every inch of skin on Rosalind's face. It was smooth and soft. But this woman did not look like she came from a prominent family.(Yeahhh, this is the jackpot. Rosalind perfectly meets the criteria of the future daughter-in-law I want. All I have to do is persuade her to marry Demian. Then my plan will come to fruition)"Demian?" parroted Rosalind as she frowned. "So that's the name of the person I saved, huh?""That's right. And he's the owner of B&F Corporation.""B&F Corporation?" said Ro
"Sir, Mr.Morgan and Mrs.Katty came to see Miss Rosalind in the hospital. They were there for quite some time. And I suspect it won't be their last visit," Niel informed his boss of the information he had just gotten. They were currently at the company. "What are they talking about?" asked Demian, not surprised by the news. The snake woman could not have stayed silent after what happened. Surely her purpose in coming to the hospital was to find out about Rosalind's background. "From the doctor's report, they only discussed the assault that happened that night. Also asked the reason why Miss Rosalind would help you for free," Niel replied."Then what did that woman say?""She said she was also in the same building as us. Miss Rosalind was one of the invited guests at the event."Demian's eyebrows knitted together after hearing Niel's account. Rosalind was present in the middle of the dinner? What family did she come from? Just curious. "Sir, do I need to investigate Miss Rosalind's b
Dylan was frozen in place after hearing the gunshots directed at him. He was still in the position of gripping Niel's shirt collar, but now it wasn't as strong as it was at the beginning."Only I can touch my people. So quickly remove your hands from Niel or I'll blow your head off right now. Get rid of it!" Demian snapped, having run out of patience with Dylan's childish behavior. Fortunately, the room was soundproof. So he didn't have to worry about anyone hearing the gunshots. At least in this room he was free to do anything without having to be afraid that his good name would be tarnished."Are you bluffing me?" asked Dylan, not immediately obeying Demian's orders. He was still in shock from the gunshot just now, but he had to maintain his prestige and self-respect. He wouldn't let this asshole know his weakness."Does that sound like a bluff?" Demian asked back."Yes."
Katty smiled wryly after reading the message from her messenger. Now she knew why none of Rosalind's family had come to visit her at the hospital. As it turned out, the woman was an outcast child."It fits. It really fits the criteria I was looking for," Katty said happily. She then propped up her chin. "This time it's you, Demian. Dylan and I may have failed to kill you, but that doesn't mean we're giving up. Failing one, there are still a thousand other plans we can use to cripple your power. Just watch, I'll make sure Rosalind will be the first cause of your life's destruction."Smiling faintly, Katty immediately went to the first plan. That was to incite Morgan. She planned to use the elderly man to persuade Demian to marry Rosalind. This way, Katty wouldn't have to spend any more money and effort.Knock knock knock"Honey, can I come in?"Morgan, who was talking
