At that moment Damien pushed his chair back, standing up with no hesitation. He had nothing more to say.

Jessica, however, felt a sinking disappointment in her chest.

‘This wasn’t how I wanted this to go…’

She had imagined things differently. After the truth came out, she thought there would at least be a moment—just a small moment—where things wouldn’t feel so tense. Where maybe, just maybe, she and Damien could sit without resentment filling the air between them.

But now, he was already leaving.

Then her fingers clenched slightly under the table before she quickly forced herself to speak.

“Damien,” she called, her voice softer than before.

He stopped but didn’t turn.

Jessica took a deep breath, then stood up as well.

“I just… I just want to apologize again,” she said, her voice wavering slightly. “For everything that happened before. I didn’t know what I was doing then, and I’m sorry.”

Damien let out a slow breath before turning his head slightly to glance at her. “No problem,” he

    At that moment, all heads turned toward the entrance as the heavy sound of synchronized boots grew louder, commanding silence across the hall.Then they appeared, two men stepped into the hall side by side, dressed in full military regalia. One of them was clearly older his face weathered by time and leadership, with silver streaks decorating the edges of his neatly trimmed hair. The other, slightly younger, walked with the same confident gait, his chest held high, radiating authority and calm dominance.They didn’t speak, They didn’t need to.The badges, the ribbons, the polished boots it all screamed rank. The crowd didn’t need anyone to explain who they were. Just the sight of them was enough to send waves of unease through the room.And behind them? Ten military officers followed in strict formation.Each one carried the presence of someone who’d seen battle. They weren’t ordinary foot soldiers. They might not have held the same rank as the two in front, but their aura told everyo

    At that moment, Sophia didn’t say a word.She just turned slowly and gave Cecilia a cold, disgusted look—a look that spoke louder than any insult could ever manage. Her eyes didn’t carry anger. No, they carried contempt. The kind of look that said, You’re not even worth my energy. But Cecilia didn’t seem to care. She took it as a silent admission of defeat, and that only made her smirk even wider. Just then, Damien leaned in closer to Sophia, his voice low, calm, and unshaken. “Don’t even think about stepping in,” he whispered gently, but firmly. “Whatever happens from here, just stay calm. I don’t want you getting involved.”Sophia turned her head slightly to glance at him, her expression unreadable.“I’m not warning you,” Damien added, his tone still soft but steady. “I’m only telling you this because I want you to be relaxed. I’ve got this handled.”He looked back toward David and Cecilia, his face now blank no emotion, no smirk, nothing.It was the silence before the thunder.So

    At that moment, upon hearing what Damien just said, David’s lips slowly curved into a wide, mocking smile. Then, he began clapping loud, slow, sarcastic claps that echoed through the room like gunshots in a chapel.“Clap…!! clap…!! clap…!!”Everyone’s attention snapped toward him.“Wow,” David sneered, his tone dripping with ridicule. “Just look at him… sitting there so proud, so mighty, like he owns the air we breathe. Like nobody can touch him. Like he’s untouchable.” He scoffed and shook his head. “You really think you’re something, huh? Walking around in that black uniform as if you’re the son of the president himself.”His voice rose slightly, enough for everyone to hear. “Well, I’ve got news for you, Mr. Untouchable your days are numbered. You’ve pushed it too far this time, and today… today, I’m going to deal with you mercilessly.”The room grew tenser with each word, and just then, Cecilia who had been burning with anger stepped forward and added fuel to the fire.“Yes!” she s

    All eyes slowly shifted to Damien, who remained seated with perfect calmness. His back was straight, one hand resting gently on his lap, the other casually on the armrest. His face held no fear, no panic, just a slow, measured smile that formed at the corners of his lips as if he’d been waiting for this moment.His presence was unsettling, like a lion calmly lying in a room full of barking dogs.Sophia, seated beside him, clenched her fists slightly. Her heart was pounding, not because she feared David’s threat but because she was overwhelmed by how calm Damien still was. She could feel the tension, the pressure, the doubt growing like weeds around them, but Damien’s energy was… unshaken. And that made her proud.She leaned forward to say something in his defense, her lips parting ready to tell David off but before she could utter a single word, Damien gently reached out and held her hand.“Don’t,” he whispered, his voice low and tender. “I’ll handle this.”Sophia froze for a second,

    At that moment, David let out a low, calculated smile. He wasn’t in a hurry. He straightened his jacket slowly, as if adjusting it for dramatic effect, and then ran his fingers through his neatly combed hair before locking eyes with Damien again.“I didn’t want to do this,” David said, his voice calm but cold. “Honestly, I planned to let it go. I thought maybe you were just someone who didn’t know any better just trying to impress a few people, maybe even impress Sophia.” He looked over at Sophia briefly, then returned his gaze to Damien. “But now I see you're not just trying to impress. You're trying to deceive. You're sitting there acting like you know things about the military that even high-ranking officers keep secret, and you expect us to believe all of it without questions?”David chuckled, but there was no humor in his voice.“You see, I hate liars. I hate people who try to take others for a ride especially when it’s done so shamelessly in public. And since you want to raise y

    At that moment, David couldn’t help it he started smiling, but it wasn’t a smile of joy. It was smug. Condescending. He slowly rose from his seat like a man who believed he had just cracked the biggest joke of the night. Straightening his suit, he gave the crowd a short nod, soaking in the energy of the whispers and laughter that still lingered in the air like smoke after a fire.“Well,” David began, his voice loud enough to capture the entire hall’s attention, “I honestly didn’t want to say anything. I really didn’t. I came here to have a good time, not to be pulled into some circus performance.”A few people chuckled, others turned to look at him with curiosity.“But one thing about me,” David continued, now walking slowly in front of the long banquet table where Sophia and Damien sat, “is that I hate liars. I hate people who live fake lives. People who walk into rooms trying to act like something they’re not. I hate people who think they can take others for a ride.”He turned, his
