All Chapters of No Way to Win Me Back: Chapter 111 - Chapter 120

Damien’s POVCeleste smirked, dropping her fingers. “You were right about one thing though–I do deserve an incredible man. But that sure as hell isn’t you, Damien.”Each word stabbed like hot knives, wounding my pride.“That’s not fair, Celeste.” I said, my voice flaring. “I would have protected you just the same if I were closer. I always protect my woman.”Ryan raised an eyebrow. “So when Vanessa was begging for help and you just stood aside while the police dragged her away, that was you protecting your woman? Wow, I need to take notes from you, Damien.”Blatant sarcasm dripped from each word.If we weren’t in the middle of a mall, surrounded by so many witnesses, I would have thrown a right hook at him. Showed this punk his place.“I feel bad for Vanessa.” Celeste said, shaking her head, lips pursed. “She entrusted herself to the wrong man. You’re too selfish, too blinded by your own self-importance, to be a suitable partner.”The revulsion in her eyes made my heart sink.The woman

Celeste’s POVMy heart ached as I squeezed Bonnie closer. A million different scenarios had played out in my head and my body still trembled from the possibility of losing my daughter.I had never been more terrified in my entire life.“Let go of me!” Bonnie screamed suddenly.She recoiled from my touch like a startled animal. Like it burned.I loosened my grip to ask, “What’s wrong, hon—” But she shoved me away, tearing herself free from my embrace.“Stay away from me! I only want Daddy!” She screamed, lunging into Damien’s arms.My daughter buried her face against her father’s chest, sobbing like I’d hurt her.I stared blankly in shock as my heart twisted.Damien had lost her in a mall, and still she chose him over me. Who knows when he would have realized she was missing if I hadn’t asked about her? I pushed myself off the playground floor.“Honey, why don’t you want Mommy near you?” I asked as I walked towards them.Bonnie looked up from Damien’s chest, and her face twisted when

Celeste’s POVSilence descended over our group.I glared at Damien, daring him to tell me I was wrong. I wouldn’t put it past such an arrogant and self-centered man to deny that he tore a chasm between Bonnie and I with his affair and the way he mistreated me.But he stood tight-lipped and stiff with hesitation.“Get out of my sight, Damien.” I broke the silence, my anger and heartache settling deep in my bones. “We have nothing more to discuss.”He opened his mouth, but no sound came out.“Daddy, buy my princess dress before the shops close.” Bonnie demanded and reached for his hand. Damien sighed. “You have so many dresses already, Bon-Bon.”She pouted up at her father. “Auntie Vanessa said a princess can never have too many dresses.”“Let’s just go home.” He said.Bonnie glared at him. “We can’t go home without Auntie Vanessa! You have to fetch her from the police.”“I can’t bring Auntie Vanessa home until the police call me.” He said, running a hand over his face. Tears sprung to

Celeste’s POV“Grace, Ryan, I have a brilliant idea!” I said, as I hurried over to them. “We should launch a more accessible ‘light luxury’ jewelry line.”My assistant took the takeout bag from my hands while my business partner raised an eyebrow.“You look awfully cheery, considering what just happened with Bonnie.” She said, tilting her head to the side. “Where did this sudden business idea come from?”I smiled, thinking back to the fan I met.“I just realized that we’ve been focusing on ultra wealthy clients, but they’re the minority.” I said, excitement thrumming through my veins.“I don’t think now is the best time to be venturing into a new market.” Grace said, chewing on her lip. “We’re still trying to recuperate after Vanessa’s attack.”She fixed me with her concerned gray eyes.“Besides, don’t you think you should take a break to process everything that’s happened with Bonnie?” I shook my head. “A break is the last thing I need. Without worrying about Bonnie or fighting again

Celeste’s POV“Me? Jealous?” I scoffed, tilting my head to the side with a smirk. “Is that why I’m planning on approaching Michelle to form a partnership with Hughes Industries?”My words didn’t have the effect I imagined on Ryan.He retreated into himself for a few seconds. Then he ran a hand over his face and let out a heavy breath. When he raised his eyes to meet my challenging gaze, there was an overpowering intensity in their depths that made me swallow.“Celeste, I strongly discourage you from getting involved with Hughes Industries.” He said, his tone taking on a dark edge.There was nothing problematic about his words. But the authoritative tone in his voice, the fierceness in his eyes, told me it wasn’t simply a suggestion. It was an order.I narrowed my eyes. “Care to explain why you’re so against the idea that you’d order your boss around?”He studied me, hesitating for a moment, before responding.“I’ve heard chatter that Crown Luxe is after an exclusive supplier contract
