rk sneered. “I was wondering why you were so eager to divorce me. Turns out you’vetched onto my uncle. N, you’re no different from those cheap women out there.”
N pped him hard across the face, drawing the attention of everyone around them.
rk had never felt so humiliated. His eyes zed with fury as he reached <b>out </b>to choke N<b>. </b>
Before he could touch her, a powerful kick sent him crashing to the <b>ground</b>.
Damon pulled N into his arms, looking down at rk with cold, piercing eyes. “She’s your future aunt Show some respect when you speak, or next time it won’t just be a kick.”
Upon hearing the words “future aunt“, rk’s face flushed with rage.
“Uncle Damon, Grandpa and Grandma will never allow you to marry a divorced woman. Being with her will only make you aughingstock in Saintornia!” rk spat
The more he spoke, the more smug he became.
Richard and Marie had always been so picky about the women they wanted for Damon. Yet here Damon was, falling for a woman who had been married before!
“Why don’t you worry about yourself? Do you really think marrying Jordyn will give you a shot at inheriting the Sumner Group?” Damon shot back.
rk’s triumphant expression froze, and his hands clenched into fists at his sides. If N hadn’t exposed his marriage, Richard wouldn’t have been so disappointed in him.
rk wanted nothing more than to strangle N. The love he once felt for her had twisted into pure hatred.
“Uncle Damon, you’ll regret this. Just wait,” rk warned.
Damon didn’t spare him another nce. He simply took N’s hand and walked away.
N tried to pull her hand back, but he didn’t let go.
“There are so many people watching–just let go of me for now!” N whispered harshly.
Noticing the shocked stares from those around her, she wished she could disappear. She had hoped to
eep things low–key, but now everyone knew on the very first day.
“What’s there to be afraid of? The people in thepany aren’t stupid. After what just happened, do you really think we can keep this a secret?” Damon asked.
Realizing he was right, N stopped struggling.
When they reached theb door, Damon told her, “Come to my office at noon<b>.</b>”
“For what?” she asked.
Lunch,” he answered.
Seeing that N was about to refuse, Damon raised an eyebrow. “I just drove you here. A lot of <b>people </b>
saw us together. Do you really want to eat in the cafeteria with everyone staring at you?”
T pressed her lips together. “I could order takeout.
“It’s unhealthy. I’ll eithere down and eat with you, or you cane to my office. Your choice,” Damon replied
His eyes exuded domineering determination, leaving Fl no room to refuse. After a few seconds of silence, she finally relented. Tll go to your office”
Soon, Damon left, and H sighed. As she turned around, she saw Melody standing a few steps away, her eyes wide with shock and admiration.
“N, you’re really with Mr. Sumner? I saw the discussion in thepany group chat earlier and thought it was just a misunderstanding. Melody gushed.
Having been married to rk and now being with his uncle, N knew people would talk. She could already imagine the gossip that would follow.
However, when she decided to be with Damon, she had mentally prepared herself for this. It simply happened sooner than expected.
“Let’s get back to work,” she said.
Melody wanted to ask more questions, but seeing that N wasn’t in the mood to talk, she held back her curiosity.
News of Damon and N’s rtionship quickly reached Richard and Marie.
Marie <b>was </b>so furious that she <b>fainted</b>, while Richard immediately called Damon, demanding hee
home.
Damon’s tone <b>was </b><b>cold</b>. “Dad, if you’re calling about me <b>and </b>N, then there’s no need-”
Richard cut him off, his voice full of anger. “Are youing back yourself, or should I go to Prospectus Technology and have a talk with that woman? You decide!”
