“I thought you were nning to never speak to me again,” Damon said, gripping N’s chin and forcing her to look at him.


    N pped his hand away, her voice icy. “Mr. Sumner, there’s nothing to discuss between us. What you’re doing now is sexual harassment. If you don’t want me to call the police, let me go right- Mmph!”


    Before she could finish, Damon kissed her.


    N froze for a moment, then bit him hard, the taste of blood filling her mouth.


    Damon let her go, his expression darkening. “Are you part dog?”


    Seeing his lower lip bleeding, N sneered. “If you darey a hand on me again, this will just be the beginning.”


    Damon wiped the blood from his mouth and raised an eyebrow. “You just used me of sexual harassment. I thought I should live up to the charge. Otherwise, what’s the point?”


    “Can you


    let me go now?” N asked.


    “I will, as long as you promise to stay away from Gabriel,” Damon replied.


    N nodded. “Fine. I’ll agree as long as you keep your distance from Reba.”


    Damon’s smile froze, and he frowned. “N, told you, give me three months.”


    “And I told you, no. I won’t wait for you. From the moment you lied to me, it was over between us,” N insisted.


    “You heard how nasty your stepmother was today. If I hadn’t stepped in, you-<b>” </b>Damon began.


    N cut him off, her tone indifferent, “Speaking of that, if you hadn’t meddled today, I could have handled it myself. Next time something like this happens, do me a favor and pretend <b>you </b>didn’t see it. I don’t want people to think we’re still entangled. I won’t be ‘the other woman‘.”


    Damon scowled, his grip on N’s wrist tightening involuntarily.


    Feeling the pain in her wrist, N red at him. “Are you trying <b>to </b>break my wrist?” “Sorry, I didn’t <b>mean </b>to,” Damon apologized.


    Taking advantage of the moment Damon’s grip loosened, N pulled her hand free and walked away.


    She stepped into the elevator, relieved that Damon hadn’t followed her. Upon looking down at her reddened wrist, her mood soured even further.


    Flirting with Reba on one hand and asking N to wait on the other–did all the Sumner men think they were so irreceable?


    After rk’s betrayal, love no longer held the same significance for N. She could weigh the pros and cons and walk away as soon as she was hurt.


    Back at theb building, she ran into Gabriel, who was hurrying out.


    Seeing her, he heaved a sigh of relief. “What did my mom want with you?”


    N’s expression turned cold as she thought about Wren and herments.


    “She said that since I’ve been divorced, I should keep my distance from you so I don’t mess up your rtionships as well. I think she has a point. We should cut down on unnecessary interactions,” N said. N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.


    Gabriel stiffened and frowned. “I didn’t know she would say that. Don’t take it to heart. I’ll talk to her.”


    N didn’t respond and entered her office with a stony expression.
