At that moment his tone carried a mixture of surprise and approval. “I didn’t expect this level of luxury, Damien.”Deborah, however, wore a tight-lipped expression, her eyes narrowing as she scanned the villa. “Where did he get the money for this?” she muttered under her breath, her tone sharp with suspicion.Immediately Jessica crossed her arms, her jaw clenched. “I have a pretty good idea,” she said bitterly, glaring at the villa like it was a personal insult.At that moment Damien stepped out of the house, his demeanor calm as he approached them. “Uncle Bernard,” he greeted politely, extending his hand. “Thank you for visiting.”“Damien, this is… remarkable,” Jessica's father said, shaking his hand firmly. “I’m glad to see you’ve settled into such a fine place.”Damien nodded slightly. “I wanted a space that reflected my needs. I appreciate your concern.”As Uncle Bernard began exploring the villa, his admiration grew with each step, However Jessica and her mother exchanged

Arriving at the restaurant, he was quickly escorted to a secluded room at the back. The manager was already waiting, a small wooden box sitting on the table in front of him. As Damien entered, the manager stood and bowed slightly, his demeanor respectful but professional.“Mr. Damien, thank you for coming on such short notice,” the manager said. “We believe this herb matches your description.”Immediately Damien nodded and sat down, his eyes locking on the box. “Let’s see it.”Hearing what Damien just said.The manager carefully opened the box, revealing a delicate plant wrapped in protective material. Its slender leaves and faintly glowing stems bore a striking resemblance to the herb Damien had described.At that moment Damien leaned forward, inspecting it closely. His sharp gaze picked up on the subtle differences almost immediately. The color was slightly off, and the scent, while similar, lacked the distinct sharpness he knew the correct herb would have.Immediately he let ou

At that moment Damien stood still, his gaze flickering to David, who was now almost foaming with rage. He didn’t move, didn’t speak, letting David words hang in the air. ‘Should I step in?’he thought briefly. But the idea dissipated as quickly as it came. David's behavior was beyond reason—stepping in would only be a waste of time.“You think you’re better than me, Damien?” David spat, his voice cutting through the hallway. His disheveled clothes and wild expression made him look like a man clinging to the last shreds of his pride. “Walking around here like you belong! Guards, grab him! I’m telling you, he’s sneaking out without paying! Look at him— does he look like someone who has the money to eat here!”Damien remained silent, his calm demeanor contrasting sharply with David frenzy. He could see the guards glancing at him now, hesitation flickering in their eyes. At that moment One of the guards, the lead, stepped forward, his grip on David loosening slightly as he addressed Da

After Damien was done with David and all his attitude he went home preparing for the banquet.The late afternoon sun cast a golden glow over the driveway as Jessica's car pulled up in front of Damien’s villa. She sat at the back, her expression set in thinly veiled irritation. Her father’s instructions were clear, he told her to pick up Damien for the banquet. She couldn’t refuse, but she certainly didn’t intend to let the opportunity go to waste.She's going to tell him how unless he was.When Damien stepped out of the villa, calm and composed as ever, Jessica's eyes narrowed. He’s always so smug, she thought bitterly as he approached. She rolled down the window slightly.“Hurry up,” she said flatly, her tone laced with annoyance. “I don’t have all day.”however Damien didn’t respond, sliding into the back seat without a word. He fastened his seatbelt, settling in as if her tone hadn’t even registered. The silence was suffocating for her, but Damien didn’t seem bothered in the sli

Not long after the staff member returned, he whispered something to the doorman, who straightened abruptly. The tension in his posture vanished as he turned back to Damien with a polite smile.“My apologies, sir,” the doorman said, bowing slightly. “We’ve confirmed with Miss Sophia. Please, go right in.”The murmurs around the entrance stopped immediately, replaced by a hush of surprise as Damien walked forward, passing through the doors with quiet confidence.Jessica's expression stiffened as she watched him enter, his calm demeanor completely unbothered by the earlier confrontation. ‘What just happened?’she thought, her mind racing. At that moment she glanced at the doorman, trying to rationalize what she’d seen.‘Did they let him in because they saw us arrive together? That must be it.’Determined not to let it go because Damien used her name to get inside, she approached Damien with her voice dripping in Mockery. “Well, that was impressive,” she said loud enough for others to

Upon hearing what Jessica just said Landon head snapped toward her, his expression instantly darkening. “Damien? the village doctor”“Yes,” Jessica confirmed, her tone tinged with satisfaction. “Would you believe he somehow managed to sneak into this banquet?” She gestured vaguely around the room. “Walking around like he belongs here. It’s laughable.”Again Landon's eyes narrowed into slits. “He’s here?”Jessica nodded eagerly, leaning in as if sharing something deliciously scandalous. “I saw him earlier, but I assure you, he doesn’t have any real connections. I thought you’d like to know, considering how much nerve he had last time, uttering nonsense.” At that moment Landon's expression hardened, his usual condescension giving way to genuine irritation. “That man has no shame,” he muttered coldly. “First at the club, and now here? Pretending to know someone like Sophia…”His voice trailed off, but Jessica could see the gears turning in his mind. Without being told she could tell

Jessica stood rooted in place, her confidence crumbling as she replayed the scene in her mind. Landon’s unexpected reaction to Damien had thrown her off balance. Instead of tearing Damien down, as she’d meticulously planned, Landon had greeted him with what almost seemed like respect—or caution.Her mind raced, trying to piece it together. ‘Why would Landon back off? He’s never one to hold his tongue, especially when he was angry about Damien using Sophia's name to lie and pretend. And why was he acting as if Damien wasn’t just some nobody?’Across the courtyard, Damien adjusted his jacket and walked away from Jessica, his steps deliberate yet unhurried. He didn’t so much as glance at Jessica, his indifference stinging more than any sharp remark could have.At that moment Jessica clenched her fists seeing Damien walking away, which made her look even more foolish, her frustration bubbling over. “What is it with him? How does he manage to walk away unscathed every time, first it was

At that moment Damien leaned back slightly, his gaze steady as Mr. Leo’s polished words lingered in the air. Despite the businessman’s smooth denial, Damien’s instincts flared. He knows something, Damien thought, his mind piecing together the subtle tension in Mr.Leo’s tone and posture.“Mr.Leo,” Damien began, his voice calm but deliberate, “if I’m wrong about your access to the herb, then I apologize. But if there’s another reason—perhaps something personal—maybe we can work together instead.”Upon hearing what Damien just said.Mr.Leo’s brows furrowed slightly, his usually composed demeanor slipping for a fraction of a second. “What are you implying?” he asked, his voice still measured but carrying a hint of wariness.However Damien kept his tone neutral. “I’m suggesting that if you need the herb for a reason—like a medical condition—I may be able to help. My focus isn’t just on acquiring the herb but ensuring it’s used to its fullest potential.”At that moment Mr.Leo’s lips presse

Winston exhaled, nodding slightly, already calculating the cost in his mind.But Megan wasn’t finished.“You will also secure a house for us abroad,” she said smoothly. “An apartment in a high-end location—something that ensures we have a place to disappear to, if necessary.”London’s fingers drummed against the table, but he didn’t speak.Megan leaned forward slightly.“And lastly,” she said, her voice dropping just a little, “when the time comes for you to erase certain traces, you will do it properly.”Her eyes darkened.“No loose ends. No mistakes.”She tilted her head.“I don’t want anything that can be traced back to us.”Still London and Winston remained silent for a moment, digesting everything Megan had just laid out.The amount was staggering—three million dollars a month for a lifetime, plus real estate abroad, plus the cost of securing a clean exit with no traceable history.It was a lot.Even for them, this wasn’t just some minor expense.But Megan wasn’t wrong. If thing

At that moment, London and Winston sat up straighter, their full attention locked onto Megan.She could see the eagerness in their eyes, the burning curiosity—they wanted to know how to make Damien sell that extra 5%.But Megan wasn’t going to rush this.She took her time, letting the silence stretch just long enough to make them restless before she finally spoke.“I know you both are impatient, and what answer.” she said, her tone smooth but serious. “You want to know the next step, but before I say anything—consider this your final warning.”Again she leaned forward slightly, her expression darkening.“This is very, very strict.”Her voice was firm, unwavering.“I’ll repeat myself—this move has zero room for mistakes. One wrong step, one miscalculation, and the consequences could be…” she trailed off, letting the weight of her words sink in.Hearing what Megan just said.London and Winston exchanged cautious glances.They weren’t afraid of taking risks, but Megan’s tone was differe

The words felt easy enough to say, but deep down, a part of her still wrestled with the regret of how things had turned out.Before she could dwell on it too much, Valentina suddenly reached out and grabbed her hand.Jessica blinked in surprise as Valentina squeezed her fingers lightly, a playful grin forming on her lips.“Sister,” Valentina said dramatically, tilting her head. “Since we’re friends now, you have to tell me some things about Dr.Damien.”Immediately Jessica’s brows shot up. “Huh?”Valentina chuckled, looping her arm around Jessica’s. “Come on! Let’s go do something fun. Shopping, maybe? I’ll even show you where to get that exclusive suit Adrian was throwing a fit over.”Before Jessica could protest, Valentina was already pulling her forward.Jessica hesitated for a second, glancing back at Damien.But Damien, seeing that he was clearly no longer part of the conversation, simply sighed and shook his head.“You guys should enjoy yourselves,” he said flatly, before turnin

Seeing the look on Adrian’s face, Valentina couldn’t help but chuckle.Without being told she could tell It wasn’t just anger—no, it was frustration, humiliation, and the bitter realization that he had lost control of the situation.She tilted her head slightly, her smirk widening. “Well,” she said lightly, “it seems like there’s no issue here anymore.”Her eyes gleamed with amusement. “Which means we can leave now, right?”Adrian didn’t respond. He stood there, jaw clenched, seething in silent fury.He knew he couldn’t push this any further. Not without consequences.Valentina let out a soft, mocking laugh before turning to Jessica and Damien. “Come on,” she said smoothly. “Let’s go.”Without hesitation, she walked away, Jessica and Damien following right behind her.At that moment Adrian didn’t move.He didn’t call out, he didn’t stop them.He just stood there, watching with clenched fists as they walked away, his rage simmering beneath his skin.But just as Valentina reached the

The grip was firm, unyielding, and just as before, Adrian found himself trapped in Damien’s hold.Seeing what just happened the entire restaurant fell into a stunned silence.Damien’s expression didn’t change. He remained calm, his voice low but sharp.“I just told you not long ago,” he said evenly. “Why are you trying to take it this far?”His grip tightened slightly, his gaze locked onto Adrian’s furious eyes.“She already told you she’s going to pay,” Damien continued. “So what exactly are you trying to do here?”The weight of his words settled in the air, thick with tension.Adrian’s chest heaved, his rage barely contained. His eyes flickered to Damien’s hand, still gripping his wrist, and a wave of disgust flashed across his face.“You—again.”Adrian’s lips curled into a deep sneer, his jaw tightening as he realized—once again—he was being stopped.Adrian's nostrils flared, his face burning with frustration. He didn’t quite understand why, but something about this situation was m

His smirk widened as he spoke, as if expecting Damien to suddenly back down in fear.“My father is not just any senator,” Adrian continued, puffing his chest. “He’s personally connected to the governor of this city and has strong ties to the president’s inner circle. Do you have any idea what that means?”His eyes darkened as he leaned slightly closer, lowering his voice just enough to make it more threatening.“One word from me,” he sneered, “and I can ruin your life.”At that moment the restaurant was dead silent. A few people nearby had started whispering, clearly recognizing the Vaughn name.Everyone knew what Adrian’s influence could do. Everyone knew how powerful his father was.At that moment Adrian's smirk widened as he pulled his wrist slightly, still feeling Damien’s firm grip holding him in place.“You’ve got until the count of three to let me go,” he sneered. “One… two—”Before he could even say “three,” Damien calmly released his hand.Adrian immediately yanked his arm ba

At that moment Damien pushed his chair back, standing up with no hesitation. He had nothing more to say.Jessica, however, felt a sinking disappointment in her chest.‘This wasn’t how I wanted this to go…’She had imagined things differently. After the truth came out, she thought there would at least be a moment—just a small moment—where things wouldn’t feel so tense. Where maybe, just maybe, she and Damien could sit without resentment filling the air between them.But now, he was already leaving.Then her fingers clenched slightly under the table before she quickly forced herself to speak.“Damien,” she called, her voice softer than before.He stopped but didn’t turn.Jessica took a deep breath, then stood up as well. “I just… I just want to apologize again,” she said, her voice wavering slightly. “For everything that happened before. I didn’t know what I was doing then, and I’m sorry.”Damien let out a slow breath before turning his head slightly to glance at her. “No problem,” he

Hearing Damien words Jessica blinked, caught completely off guard by Damien’s cold and sharp response.She had expected him to be distant, maybe even annoyed, but this? This was different.The way he spoke—flat, uninterested, almost irritated—made it painfully clear.He doesn’t want to be here. He doesn’t even want to see her.At that moment her fingers twitched slightly, pressing against her lap as a strange wave of unease washed over her. She suddenly felt like a fool for calling him, for insisting on this meeting when, deep down, she already knew the answer.Then her throat went dry. Her mind scrambled for words.“I-I—” she started, then stopped.Her fingers curled tighter.However Damien’s gaze was steady, unreadable. He wasn’t going to help her out of this. He was waiting.Jessica swallowed hard, her voice barely coming out properly. “I-I mean… I already asked you before but…”Her voice faltered again, her nerves making her stammer worse. She forced a deep breath, trying to reg

Winston raised an eyebrow immediately, he was clearly caught off guard by Megan's words. His fingers tapped against the table impatiently.“A response?” he repeated, his voice laced with confusion. “What kind of response do you want?”Then Jefferson smirked, leaning slightly forward. “Listen to the briefing first,” he said smoothly. “If you like what you hear, then we’ll tell you what we want. And if you agree to our terms, we’ll give you everything you need on Damien. After that, you can do whatever you want with him.”Hearing what Jefferson just said London’s jaw clenched slightly, his anger barely contained. This wasn’t what he expected. He thought they would come here, get information, and finally get rid of Damien.But now, there were conditions?Winston glanced at London, seeing the frustration in his eyes. He wasn’t pleased either, but neither of them wanted to leave empty-handed.And London—London needed this. The anger boiling inside him was too much. Damien had humiliated
