Pedro didn't want to spill whatever secret he had bottled up inside of him, he was only overwhelmed with his bitterness and hatred for Damien.“I’m waiting,” Damien said, gently placing his slender fingers on his jaw, waiting patiently for Pedro to give an explanation for his sudden betrayal. However, it seemed he was going to wait for eternity. Pedro kept uttering profanity and screeching, calling him all manner of names. But Damien didn't flip from his position; rather, he remained calm and unflappable.“I have nothing to say to you, stop making a fool out of yourself, Damien, and let my woman go,” Pedro screeched in anger. It was obvious he wasn't going to escape Damien’s wrath; however he didn't want to get Tessy entangled in his web of misfortune.“You seem not to understand the situation you’re in right now, you don't have a say in anything that happens around you. Tell me what I need to know, while I'm still very calm with you.” Damien spoke
In the cool hours of the evening, a young man stood outside his apartment, having a conversation with a man on black hood, he veered around to take note of the environment, scanning if anyone was watching, before handing him a parcel, they spoke for a long period of time, before bidding each other a farewell.He then turned towards the entrance of his apartment, unfurling the door, slowly peeking into his apartment to be certain it was safe for him to come in, before shutting the door.“Long time to see Pedro” A cold voice rang in his ears, making him screech in fright, he immediately reached out to pick his gun; however, he soon realized that he had been disarmed.“I wouldn't do that if I were you Pedro” Damien muttered, sitting lazily on the couch, he slowly placed his hands on a young lady, who was bound with her hands behind her back, as tears streamed down her eyes, she struggled to free herself, shaking her head at Pedro in disapproval.“Son of a bit…” Pedro couldn't finish his
What's going on here?” A familiar voice echoed through the dining hall, veering towards the direction where the voice was coming from.Scarlet stared in shock as she watched Garcia walk into the dining room with a gigantic smile on her face. For some reason best known to her, she wasn't a fan of Garcia; after the dinner meeting at the Steels' mansion, it was obvious that Garcia was going to be nothing but trouble.“Did I miss something?” Garcia giggled, making her way towards Damien.“What are you doing here?” Damien knew deep down in his heart that this was all his mother's schemes. He knew Garcia wouldn't have the guts to show up in his mansion unannounced; nevertheless, he felt underestimated.“Well, Mrs. Anna asked me to come keep you company. She said she noticed you have been under too much pressure from work lately. So I assured her that I will help you ease your stress,” Garcia replied, darting her eyes from Damien to Scarlet. However, Scarlet wasn't ready for a fight. She sat
**A WEEK LATER…**Scarlet had been trying hard to avoid Damien, which was difficult since they lived in the same mansion and had breakfast together every morning. However, today felt different; for reasons only known to her, she was happy. She rushed downstairs and took a seat at the opposite end of the table to enjoy her breakfast. She had drafted her plans for the day and hoped to persuade Damien to let her leave the mansion, at least just this once.As they continued their breakfast in silence, Scarlet noticed Damien was focused more on his meal. Seizing the opportunity, she decided to start a conversation."Can I have a word with you?" she asked calmly, striving to be as polite as possible. She didn’t want Damien to reconsider, so she hoped that once she explained her intention, he would quickly grant her request."Hm," Damien replied without sparing her a glance."I would like to go back to my apartment.
