Chapter 362
At that moment, Bernard’s face stiffened. His jaw clenched, and his brows twitched ever so slightly as he looked at his wife. But Deborah was not finished. With her arms tightly folded across her chest and her voice as sharp as glass, she stared him down like a lioness ready to pounce.“I’ve had enough,” she said, voice low and unwavering. “Enough of you making excuses. Enough of you acting like Damien is a saint when he is nothing but a manipulative liar.”Her words hung in the air like smoke from a burning house heavy, dark, and choking. Jessica opened her mouth to speak, but Deborah turned on her so fast, her voice rose like a slap.“Don’t. You. Dare.” Deborah pointed at her daughter, her eyes flashing with fire. “Don’t you say one word in his defense. I’ve watched you change, Jessica. I’ve watched you throw away everything we built your respect, your sense for that boy. What has he done to you? What poison did he feed you that you now speak like him, act like him, and fight your o

At that moment, Victoria then turn to Deborah with a calm yet firm voice, “No problem, Mother. For the assurances you just gave me—for standing by me and understanding me—I'll make sure that no obstacle remains. I’ll take out every single one, no matter what. Anyone that dares to stand in our way is going to disappear like they never even existed. You have my word on that.”Her eyes gleamed with certainty, and with one final nod, she turned around and entered her car. Without wasting another second, the engine hummed to life, and she drove off with purpose, leaving Deborah standing by the roadside.However Deborah watched until the car was completely out of sight. Her face, once composed, tightened into a deep scowl as she turned and stormed back toward the house, fury growing with each step. As soon as she entered, her eyes scanned the scene and immediately locked onto Damien, who was quietly standing.Without hesitation, Deborah’s voice thundered through the house.“You’ve done eno

At that moment, Victoria stormed off without saying another word, her heels stomping hard against the tiled floor as she headed toward her car. Her jaw was still clenched, her hands trembling slightly as her thoughts raced in circles. The betrayal stung more than she expected, especially from someone like Jessica, someone she had defended more times than she could count. And now? That same girl was standing up for Damien. Damien of all people. It made her sick.Inside the house, Deborah stood frozen for a second. Her lips pressed together tightly. Her eyes narrowed as she battled with the war inside her heart should she let Victoria go and cool off, or should she chase after her? She hated swallowing her pride, but this wasn’t just about pride. If Victoria walked out now and cut ties with them, especially after everything she had done to protect Jessica and the family’s image, then it would be a loss too heavy to recover from.At that moment with a sharp sigh, Deborah finally moved. “

At that moment, upon hearing what Damien just said, Victoria’s entire expression changed. Her excitement vanished, her raised cheeks dropped, and the color drained slowly from her face. She stood stiff, staring at Damien like she was looking at a ghost—because to her, Damien was supposed to be finished. Her brother had guaranteed it. But here he was… standing in front of her, speaking with the kind of calmness that was more terrifying than anger.At that moment the silence in the compound grew thick. Jessica didn’t even know what to say. She turned to look at her mother, but Deborah’s eyes were already burning with fire.Deborah was watching Damien closely—his stance, his words, and the sharp look in his eyes. She wasn’t just angry at his presence. She was worried.Worried because Damien was not only alive, but more confident than ever, and that was dangerous.Because if Victoria took this personal attack to heart, she might report everything to her brother. And if Victoria’s brother

Upon hearing what Deborah just said, Victoria’s confident smile began to twitch slightly. “What are you talking about?”Deborah pointed calmly toward the house. “The Damien you’re referring to… is inside. Right now. Sitting in my living room. Talking business with my husband.”Immediately Victoria’s smile dropped completely.Then Deborah continued, “So you’re here, all smiles and celebration, thinking the man is gone for good, while the same man is literally inside my house. And you want us to believe he’s been taken care of?”At that moment Victoria stood there, stunned for a second. The tension in the air grew thicker. Even Jessica turned toward her mother, trying to confirm what she just heard. “He’s really inside?”Deborah nodded. “Unless I’m hallucinating which I’m not yes, Damien is inside. And from what I heard before I stepped out, he’s the one giving the instructions, not the other way around.”The silence that followed was heavy. Victoria’s lips parted slightly, but no words
Chapter 357
At that moment, Victoria’s smile faltered. Her excitement slowly turned into disbelief as she stared at Deborah, completely baffled. How could she say she didn’t know who she was talking about? It wasn’t like she was referring to some mystery man. Everyone especially Deborah knew exactly who she hated with every fiber of her being.“Wait…mother what do you mean you don’t know who I’m talking about?” Victoria asked, blinking hard like she was trying to make sure she heard right.She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself before her irritation took over. Then she stepped a little closer to Deborah, lowering her voice as if trying to make her finally understand what should have been obvious from the start.“Mother,” she said firmly, “don’t tell me that you seriously don’t know the person I’m talking about.”Her voice was more pointed now, and her expression turned sharp with frustration.“I mean… come on,” she continued, gesturing around them as if the answer was written in the air.
