You say you don’t know me, yet you also want to stay away from me forever? Why? the I owe you something? Are we enemies?“||
Willow realized she slipped up. Her long lashes fluttered rapidly as she tried to backtrack.
No Were not enemies. |
Then what did you mean by that just now?
1 just think you’re ugly, that’s all! Seeing your face reminds me of the grim reaper, so of course I want to stay far, far away.”

The car door was still open, and the bodyguards standing outside exchanged glances. each with a

Sure, the media called their boss the “Living King of Hell,” but this… This woman actually had the e guts to say it to his face. And to call him ugly, no less. Unreal
“Throw her in jail. Damien said coldly. “No food for three days. Don’t let her out until she’s ready to talk.
Then he shut his eyes, dearly done with her.]
Two bodyguards stepped forward to pall Willow our of the car
She panicked
If she really got locked up, what would happen to her kids?
In a flash of desperation, she blurted out, “You cant arrest me, you bastard! I’m Damien a wafer“]

The silence was deafening.
Damien was right there, and she didnt even recognize him. And yet she was out here claiming tanien adored her madly, no Deus?|| Even someone with arro emotional intelligence would know the was lying. The awkwardness was enough to make your soul cringe |

Willow didn’t get to finish. A bodyguard covered her mouth and dragged her out of the car, hauling her off toward the police station.
Nies came rushing over with a tablet in banit[]
Hold on he called to the bodyguards
He climbed into the car, speaking in a
slow voice.]]
Tots, we found the woman Dr. Glenn was talking about…it’s hert Miss Windsor. She just calmed down Watson Blaker |
Damien
He grabbed the tablet and watched the footage, then slowly looked back out the window toward Willow.
His expression tumed complicated
He never would’ve guessed.. the woman Glenn had begged him to find was her?]]
Watson Blake was the nephew of his close friend, Shane. The boy had been traumatized after being kidnapped two years ago and now suffered from bipolar disorder, similar to Rick.
The Blake family, le has, had hired every top pediatric psychiatrist available, but no one had managed to help
And yet. Willow could
If it hadn’t been for their recent altercations, he would’ve immediately brought her home to care for Rick
But now he couldn’t help but wonder..
Was the whole Watson Blake thing just a setup?
A carefully staged performance designed to earn his trust and get closer to him and to Rick?||
After all, tou many things had happened since this woman showed up there was no way she was as simple as she looked
Damen stayed quiet for a moment, then said coldly.
He needed to watch her more closely
If she was indeed approaching him with a hidden agenda, letting her go now would only make her try harder to get near him again. []
Before Branging her anywhere close to luck, he had to be sure she meant no harm
wallow was stunned when they uddenly let her go. Confused, she glanced warily into the car!]
Could it be he’d confirmed sev

After all, the Crawford family was the most powerful clan in Santawill city the number one clite family.]
Willow didn’t stop to overthink it. She bolted

Not far away in the
shadows, a tall, lean man watched everything unfold.]
there was almost ghost like his presence pre
Well, well. What a show… Hehehe
Damien seemed to see something off
turners of his mouth curled into a sinister smile as he muttered to himself.]
He rolled down the window and scanned the crowd with sharp eyes… bat saw nothing suspicious
“What is it Damien ?” Nico asked ||
“Nothing,” Damien replied coolly. Tet’s go.
