Meanwhile, Eva was still standing at the same she had been ever since Damien left. She was completely stunned and dazed as she kept staring at the door. This was the first time she had been told such words, in fact, she was stunned not only because this was the first someone had spoken like that to her. But the fact that it was Damien who had just told her that.Pathetic? Revenge? Those were the only two words ringing in her brain currently.‘Am I been pathetic?. Do I really want to get revenge? But isn't that what everyone is expecting me to do?’ Eva's mind was in turmoil as she kept thinking about what Damien said before he left.“I just wanted to be alone and not get involved in anything else. Why can't he just understand that?! Did he have to go all the way and call me pathetic? Just who did he think he is to barge into my house and preach those words to me?!!” Eva finally snapped out of her daze and ranted furiously when she thought and remembered the way Damien had spoken to her

When the two people noticed the presence of people in the room, they quickly broke off from each other's grasp. Mark's lips tilted up to a pleasant smile when he saw Damien. "Mr. Cross, you’re here." He greeted, happily walking up to him to shake hands but one of Damien's security details came forward to prevent any contact.Mark’s eyes twitched at the disrespect as he ruthlessly scanned the men in his path. "What is going on?"Damien ignored his question and brushed past his men. He disdainfully eyed Christine who was sitting on the couch with her legs crossed. Her off-shoulder silk top was low and revealed too much cleavage and she was wearing a short skirt. The sight of her only grossed him the most.Eric was also surprised by her unprofessional attire. His boss had also ordered him to dig into her past, and he quickly realized that she had zero notable talents, except being a model which was due to her older sister's help. This was a professional meeting regarding a contract worth

"This is a proposal for a resort. Why are you approaching Cross Enterprise instead of Smith Enterprise?" Damien lifted his head, a listless expression on his face.Mark’s smile instantly faltered a bit at the blunt question. Why else? Smith Enterprise had already rejected him! "Currently, Johnson Corporations does not have a good relationship with Smith Enterprise at the moment."Damien didn’t need him to say it because he already knew the truth. But to him, since Mark knew that he had screwed up, it was satisfying to know. Mark should’ve just left his stubborn little kitten alone by calling off the wedding between the two families gently. Instead, he crossed the line and went as far as to humiliate and embarrass her in a public place."But that is not the only reason why this proposal was rejected in the first place." Damien remarked with a straight and blank face making it hard to tell what he was thinking. A smirk which was invisible appeared on his face when he saw Mark's baffled

**********“You're late." Damien, who was sitting behind his desk in his office remarked when Eric strolled in."I apologize, boss, I had to take care of something that came up." It was as if a switch had been flickered within Eric's brain because, at the sight of his boss, he was no longer the fearsome man who mocked CEO Mark and beat up his bodyguards. In his place was a respectful and loyal secretary who was willing to risk his life for his boss.Damien raised a brow and glanced at Eric's appearance. Not a single hair was out of place, but he saw his slightly scratched knuckle and already knew what had happened. "I hope that giant pest was taken care of?""I’m afraid not. Those weren’t my orders so I only took care of the underlings of the scum." Eric apologetically said, his shoulders slightly hunched over in disappointment. Boss wanted him to hurt Mark? Why didn’t he say so sooner?"Mm, that’s alright. Dealing with them head-on would be swift and easy, but the consequences will b

She was at a banquet and was drunk out of her mind, causing a hysterical scene. At the time, Mark had brought Christine as his partner to the banquet, making everyone in the party surprised by his sudden choice of partner when Eva was supposed to be his partner. It was at that moment Eva started to believe her own theory that Mark and Christine had something going on together. Noticing that guests were starting to think that Christine could be the love of his life and that the bond between him and Eva was nothing more than ink on paper.Heartbroken and thinking irrationally, she had confronted Mark about why he had brought Christine as his partner and refused to bring her along when she was his fiancee. Mark's response to her was that he didn't think Eva would want to, since she didn't seem to value him by her side.Not understanding the ploy Mark was pulling on her, she declared to him she was willing to do anything to get him back as her partner in the party in order to say her fac
