"About a hundred million dollars," he laughed, thinking that Anderson didn't have that kind of money. "You'll have it in your account tomorrow."

Blake cocked her head as she heard her phone

She faces me and crosses both of her arms across her chest. Damn this woman. There is nothing I don’t love about her. “Okay, okay,” I said, “I don’t have anything evil planned. That I promise. Just hear me out, okay? I am giving you a choice. A chance to decide on your own. If you like my proposal or not.” Evelyn raised a skeptical brow as I watched her playfully contemplate if she would believe me or not. “Okay,” she replied, “I am giving you the benefit of the doubt,” she said finally.

In the weeks that followed, Ryan continued with work, Tom did as well. Amelia worked in ways of getting back on track, mentally and emotionally.

Deciding not to engage in further argument, Damien chose to proceed with the original intention he had in mind when he got out of his car. He reached into his pocket, pulled out a crumpled hundred-dollar bill, and extended it toward her. "Here... this should cover a new outfit and some extra for your needs." He hadn't anticipated the resounding slap from Aella after his words had left his mouth. Damien Sullivan, the CEO of Damien Fashion World, a multi-billion-dollar company, was slapped by a commoner.
