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
"Sir?"Demian, who was about to enter the house, immediately stopped walking when Niel called out to him. He was silent, waiting to hear what the news would be."Mr.Morgan wants to talk to you. We were asked to come to the main house," Niel said after receiving a message from Mr.Morgan's assistant. He then turned to stare at his boss who had no reaction. "He said it's important.""This late?""Not too late. It's only ten o'clock. It's too early for you to go to bed now.""Since when did you dare to set my bedtime?"There was no answer. Niel had no intention of explaining because he knew it wouldn't help. He could only hope that his boss would fulfill Mr.Morgan's wish to return to the main house. Niel was worried.(Just once, sir. Lower your ego a little. Mr.Morgan is not well. I'm afraid tonight is his last night on earth. Ple
Morning at the Stewart family home .... Dylan couldn't stop looking alternately at his father and mother who were suddenly behaving strangely. These two people have been throwing smiles at each other since he joined them in the dining room. Suspicious. (Are they going through their second phase of puberty? How strange. They don't usually act this friendly) "After breakfast let's go to the hospital," Morgan said. "Hospital?" Dylan parroted. "What's the point of going there? Are any of you sick?"Katty quickly grabbed Morgan's wrist when she saw him about to answer Dylan's question. After that she shook her head, signaling not to discuss Rosalind's problem just yet. She was worried that Dylan would be angry that this arranged marriage was not in their plans. "What's wrong?" asked Morgan in a half-whisper. "Keep this matchmaking thing a secret from Dylan. I'm worried he'll misunderstand because right now his relationship with Demian is heating up," Katty replied with sweet reasonin
"Sir, Mr.Morgan and Mrs.Katty returned to see Miss Rosalind at the hospital. It looks like they're serious about the match," Niel said, reporting the news that his men had just sent. "Let them do what they want. After all, it doesn't harm us," Demian said casually in response to Niel's report. He was enjoying the lunch on his plate. "Sooner or later this will still happen too. Whether it was them or us who started it, that woman will still be the talk of the town.""Are you completely sure about this matchmaking?""You think?"Niel looked at his boss closely. "Miss Rosalind comes from quite a prominent family. It seems a bit strange that she would be ignored by her family. And I've also ordered people to investigate what exactly happened to her. She's an outcast daughter.""Outcast in what way?"Demian wiped the corner of his lips with a tissue. After which he took a deep breath. "There are many factors that could have caused her to be abandoned by her family. It could be because she
"Why don't you answer? Weren't you so eager to call me an oppressor of the weak?" scolded Demian urging the man before him to speak. Actually, he didn't really want to shoot him, just bluff. He wasn't the type to listen to other people's complaints. So pointing a gun was the most appropriate decision to shorten the time. "L-Lower your weapon. Then I'll talk!""Scared?""Don't be crazy, Demian. Put your gun down quickly or I'll ....""Will what? Huh?"Instead of obeying, Demian deliberately came forward and pressed the tip of the gun against the man's forehead. After that he tilted his head while displaying a thin smirk on his lips. This atmosphere made him uneasy. Too wordy. "I told you I don't think I've ever had a cooperative relationship with your company, but you insist on accusing me of bullying. Just so you know. There is no point in me taking away the meager profits of people like you. Understand?!" said Demian reiterating that he had nothing to do with the problems that were
Demian's eyebrows shot up as he spotted a familiar figure at the project site he was visiting. Astonished, he turned his head to stare questioningly at Niel. "What is that man doing here?""I don't know either, sir," Niel replied. "It looks like someone invited him here on purpose. I'll investigate.""No need. Let me find out myself. You check elsewhere. Make sure they're working properly.""Yes, sir."With no wind and no rain, Kelly suddenly appeared at the construction site of a project that had nothing to do with his company. This of course disturbed Demian's mind. What was this woman doing? Why would she show up where she wasn't supposed to?"I hope your coming here has nothing to do with my statement in front of the media," Demian said after standing next to Kelly. He put one hand in his pants pocket and his gaze was straight ahead. "I would be very disappointed if that were true.""Too bad your guess is off, Demian," Kelly said, not surprised by the sarcastic remark of the man n
