Jeanette followed him into the bar. Damon was obviously a regular here because even the lobby manager recognized him and respectfully greeted him as "Mr. Godfrey".Damon ordered two glasses of wine, and the waitress who served the wine was stunningly beautiful. She bent over seductively, her voice soft and charming. "Mr. Godfrey, you haven't been here for a long time."Damon stretched out his finger and motioned her to go away and leave."Is this where you always come when you don’t go home?"
It was because he felt that Damon had put him in danger by leaving him alone in the park. Xavier even believed that his brother did not like him and did not want him as a younger brother, so he had gotten someone to kidnap him on purpose.The barrier between the brothers could never be fixed.After listening to Damon's story, Jeanette was very surprised. She had never heard about it before.She had always been curious about the reason behind Damon's ill relationship with Xavier. She had inqui
Damon sneered. "Didn't he mention it already? He thought I wanted him to be kidnapped on purpose because I wanted to be the only son in the family, and I didn’t have to fight anyone for our family fortune. That was why he wanted to take revenge against me."Jeanette could not help feeling puzzled. "What logic is that?"Who cared about logic? When Damon recalled what Xavier had been doing since he was a child, he thought they were ridiculous.When Xavier was a child, he would purposely put coc
However, the fact that he was willing to tell her all this still made her happy deep down.It was probably because he trusted her, so he was willing to let his guard down and open up to her about the truth.The next day, Damon stayed asleep until the sun came out. It was almost certainly because of a hangover.He had the habit of getting up early, so today was unprecedented.Since it was the weekend, Jeanette did not have to go to work. She had just finished breakfast and was about to go hom
When Damon woke up, it was already afternoon. His head was still aching.Damon walked out of the room but did not see Jeanette. He stood in the corridor and smelled an earthy scent.As he followed the fragrance all the way to the kitchen, he saw a pot of soup heated on the stove, and a servant was watching it."What’s this?""It's the saffron chicken soup Miss Jeanette made. She got up early to make it and told us to keep it warm until you wake up and eat it.""Oh, she can cook."Damon was
When Xavier said that, a vicious and cold light flashed across his eyes, sending chills down one’s spine."What’re you going to do?" asked Madison."I must let him taste all the pain and fear I experienced in that dark place back then!"He emphasized every single word. It was apparent that he had made up his mind.The dumb woman in front of him had nowhere to go, and she was his best tool.As soon as Xavier thought of this, he could not help flashing a vicious smile in his eyes."I’ll need
This had never happened before, which was why everyone was smart enough to leave them alone during the break. Soon, it was just Damon and Jeanette.“Don’t ever fool around like that anymore—”Damon could not even finish his sentence before she stuffed a mouthful of cotton candy into his mouth. He clamped his jaw shut, and yet he found himself biting hard into the air. There was nothing to chew at all! And yet, the same nothing tasted sweet, and it permeated his entire mouth.“Is it good?” she
“J-Jeanette…?”He could tell it was her voice coming right in front of him. He reached out, and his finger immediately grazed her cheek.“W-Where are we? What just happened?” Damon sat up hurriedly and felt a stab of pain in the back of his neck. Even the slightest movement could make it protest against the pain.Jeanette had woken up before he did, so she had ample time getting used to the dark. Still, it was hard to make out anything with the naked eye. “I’ve tried making out what’s around
