Damien was about to place Eva's phone into her purse when a thought came to his head. He tried to unlock her phone and realize that there was a password. He wondered if Eva would be stupid enough to use her fingerprint as her password and just like he thought, she was.

However, just in time after he was able to unlock her phone using her index finger, her phone rang again but this time the caller ID name was someone he was quite familiar with. The caller was none other than George calling, making Damien narrow his eyes at whether he should pick the call or not. How would the fierce and grumpy old man react when a man picked his granddaughter's phone?

Damien contemplated while the phone kept ringing, but he ended up picking the call for her.

“Evangeline, where are you right now? I just asked Julian to put a call through the front desk of the hospital you were admitted to and was told that you're discharged. Why didn't you stay longer? Is this how you're reassuring me that you're okay

    Her walls were visibly cracked and barely holding itself together. If she suffered another traumatic incident as what happened to her nine months ago which she was still undergoing recovery from. George was sure that he would completely lose his only granddaughter who wouldn't be able to recover again. Her loss was the one that forced her to enter almost a year of self seclusion and rehab without any means of contacting her.“Damien Cross, let me in on something, my granddaughter is very precious to me." After a very long silence, George finally spoke up. He felt his heart tightened when he thought back to the image that Julian had gathered during his research on Eva. It was the image of the lifeless Eva on the ground in her wedding dress, whose eyes were so blank and devoured of any emotion. It terrified him because he had never thought that his granddaughter would have this kind of expression on her face.Damien's expression remained blank like a sheet of paper even though he felt

    Instantly, Eva stood up from the sofa and ran back to her room to pick up her phone . Just as she was scrolling through her phone contact to look for Nathalia's contact, she froze and nearly dropped her phone again to the ground. Right above her contact list before she could get to Nathalia's number she came across the name Damien Cross among her contacts. She knew she didn't add him on her phone, she knew she didn't have his contact as well. So how on earth did his number get into her phone contact list? She was here to sort out one issue, but now she was coming across another problem. Not only was her house invaded but her phone as well.Swallowing her hesitation, Eva decided it was smarter and better to call the man himself. It rang a few times without anyone answering, but Eva kept calling after the call disconnected. It was only until the third calling did he finally pick up.“You! How did you know my house password? How were you able to unlock my phone as well?" Eva discarded e

    “What? A grandfather can't decide to talk to his granddaughter without a reason?" Instead of replying to Eva's question, George asked back.“I didn't say that, but your case is different. You don't call me on a normal good day unless you have something to say and that is to nag me on one thing or the other which could eventually lead to us arguing again.” Eva calmly replied. “So, if you know that you're calling me for just another annoying conversation, I'd advise you to hang up the call.” She added harshly, not wanting to engage in a conversation that could cause another argument in the friendly relationship that they are beginning to develop." You cold-hearted brat! Has our good relationship ended that quickly to make you use such a harsh tone on me?! Well, since you've asked nicely, then I will tell you why I'm calling because it's very important for you.” George replied, his voice changing into a serious tone." What is it? “ Eva asked, thinking that the matter her grandfather wa

    “Yes, but it would keep you safe. Especially withstand that Mat- whatever his name is and his little minx running around in the country." George nonchalantly said. Even though he casually threw out the comments, deep down , he was burning with fury and a desire for revenge. If only he hadn't let Eva be and keep an eye on her when she said she didn't want to be involved with the Black family none of this would happen to her without him knowing about it. He thought that if he tried to keep in contact and keep an eye on her, his rivals could figure out that he had a granddaughter somewhere and they could attack her if they discovered her appearance. None of his rivals know that Shenley was married to a family in Miami because he had kept her marriage a total secret from his rivals and he did that to protect Shenley herself because she had no relationship with the family underworld business just like Eva had refused to partake in it as well.“I’m not scared of him, grandfather……” Eva trai

    After hanging up the call with Eva, George placed his phone on the desk. His gaze accidentally fell on the picture he had held earlier of him and Eva and his dark gaze softened when he saw the carefree smile on Eva's face in the picture. In the picture, Eva was wearing a black colored princess gown, her hair was tied up into two ponytails adorned with a white ribbons. She was clinging onto his legs, mischievously grinning up at him like she had been handed her favorite teddy whilst he reluctantly patted her on the head.He wouldn't have been able to capture this moment if Shenley hadn't brought Eva to visit him and she insisted that he have a picture with Eva who was also pestering him.George had refused to acknowledge his long line of grandson and granddaughter for his own children and other family relatives who he deemed useless and spoiled. He always says: ‘So what if they share my blood? Does that make them share half of my competence, hardwork and brain? No. Everything was hand

She stepped out of the elevator when she got to the floor she was heading to.She walked directly to Grandpa Smith's office, but found it empty. Just as she stepped out of the office she met one of his secretaries who was walking back to his desk with a cup of hot coffee in his hand.“Good morning, Miss. The chairman inside the office in case you're looking for him.” The secretary greeted Eva when he saw her closing the door behind her. He had seen her a couple of times, visiting his boss and knew that she was someone close to the chairman but he didn't know what their relationship was. He only knows that the chairman treated her better than most of his children that come to visit him. “I can see that. Where is the Chairman?* Eva nodded her head and asked. “The chairman asked me to inform if you arrive that you should come and meet him in the private meeting room. He is wait

Damien’s hands found the straps of her dress, and he slid them down her shoulders, his lips following the path they left behind. She felt vulnerable yet safe under his gaze, the intensity in his eyes making her feel like the most precious thing in the world.Just as they reached the point of no return, the shrill sound of Damien’s phone shattered the moment. He froze, his forehead resting against hers as he let out a frustrated groan. “You’ve got to be kidding me,” he muttered, his voice filled with irritation.Eva couldn’t help but laugh softly, her cheeks flushed a

    She trembled at his words, their certainty sending a ripple through her. He spoke with such confidence, so assured that she would stay by his side for the rest of their lives, and to her surprise, she found comfort in it. There was something deeply reassuring about his unwavering resolve, about knowing he was the kind of man who would cross oceans and move mountains to keep her close—even if it meant chasing her to the ends of the earth just to bring her back."I never intended to run," she whispered, her voice soft but resolute. Her words made his heart race. He tightened his arms around her, unwilling to let go.Eva remained nestled against Damien’s chest, her breath steadying as his strong arms cocooned her in warmth. For a moment, the world around them seemed to disappear, leaving only the two of them in the magical ambiance he had created. The distant hum of the city and the lingering scent of roses faded into the background, replaced by the quiet, steady rhythm of his heartbeat

    Okay, now remove your hands."Eva hesitated for a moment before doing as Damien instructed. When she opened her eyes, confusion flickered across her face. Darkness engulfed her entirely, so thick she could barely make out his silhouette ahead of her."What's going on—"Her words faltered as Damien pressed a button. In an instant, the oppressive darkness was replaced with a breathtaking display of shimmering lights.The scenery before her was magical, like something out of a dream. Majestic archways adorned with twinkling lights stretched as far as her eyes could see. Each arch was intricately designed with delicate white metalwork, interwoven with clusters of vibrant flowers. Fairy lights danced across the vivid blooms, their colors blending into a mesmerizing spectrum. String lights cascaded above them, adding to the enchantment.Her gaze drifted downward, and her breath caught. The ground was a carpet of roses—red, white, and pink—arranged in a heart-shaped pattern so intricate it s

    Suspicious, Eva pulled out her phone and opened the camera. Her eyes widened in horror when she saw the glaring red marks on her neck—two perfectly visible hickeys."You!" she gasped, smacking Damien’s arm as he burst into laughter."You… you…!" she stammered, completely flustered. Her thoughts raced in a whirlwind of panic. ‘Oh my goodness! Has it been there this whole time? Is that why people kept staring at me?!’"It’s not funny!" she scolded, now using her purse to hit him, much to the amusement of his bodyguards."If it makes you feel better, you can leave some on me too," Damien teased, winking playfully. She retaliated by swatting at him repeatedly, but he was far too amused by her adorable expression to take her seriously. The mere thought of her leaving a mark on him filled him with excitement, his eyes glinting with anticipation and unspoken hopes."You wish!" she snapped, instantly crushing his hopes, though his smirk only deepened."Careful what you wish for," he murmured,

    After the haunted house, Eva eagerly dragged Damien from one ride to another—towering roller coasters, spinning swings, and even a few kiddie rides. For her sake, Damien endured the sweltering heat and the endless lines. He’d thought a regular FastPass was fine, but Eva insisted they live like “normal” people for the day.He glanced at her flushed cheeks and noticed her eyes drooping slightly from the heat. With a sharp flick of his wrist, his bodyguards stepped forward. One handed him a hat while the other awaited further instructions."Get iced drinks," Damien ordered, placing the hat gently on Eva’s head.Her curious eyes peeked up at him, and she began to speak, but he cut her off with a sigh. "You're overexerting yourself, silly." Pulling out a pristine handkerchief, he wiped the beads of sweat forming on her forehead with surprising tenderness."But it’s so much fun…" Eva mumbled, reaching for his arm. To her dismay, he dodged her touch at first, only to surprise her by intertwi

    Before she could respond, he kissed her with a fierce urgency, his lips claiming hers with an intensity that left her breathless. His mouth was rough and demanding, pulling her closer, but there was also an undeniable sweetness in the way he tasted her. Despite the forceful kiss, a warmth spread through her, igniting a growing heat within her body.A sharp gasp escaped her when he nipped at her bottom lip, the sudden sting quickly soothed by his tongue, the tenderness of his touch both punishing and soothing in equal measure. His kiss deepened, and as promised, her mind spiraled into blankness, consumed by the sensation of his lips on hers. His hand slid behind her, giving her a gentle but possessive squeeze that made her heart race.The soft sound of her breath hitched as he continued, kissing her mercilessly until her lips were tender and swollen. Her legs were barely holding her up, but he was there, steadying her, marking her with every kiss, every touch. When he finally pulled aw

    “Don’t worry, Big Boss. If you’re scared, you can always hide behind me!” Eva smirked, seizing the rare opportunity to tease Damien. When she saw his face darken, the corners of his mouth pulling down into a displeased frown, her laughter bubbled out uncontrollably. The sound was like a melody that softened his rigid expression, a faint smile threatening to break through.“Oh, and here—” she extended her hand toward him, her eyes twinkling with mischief. “You can hold my hand too. Don’t worry, dear prince, This knight will protect you.”Her challenge was met immediately as Damien grabbed her hand, his firm grip tugging her toward him. He leaned down, his lips brushing her ear as he whispered, his voice low and husky, “Teasing me like this won’t end well for you.”Eva’s stomach flipped at the sensation of his breath on her skin, but she refused to give in. Smirking, she countered, “Not before I teach you who’s in charge today.” She was amused that, even though he was clearly scared, he

    Everywhere they went, they drew countless stares. Some people even stopped mid-step, their gazes lingering on the captivating striking pair. Some stole discreet glances, while others openly stared, mesmerized by the strikingly elegant couple. Despite the commanding presence of the tall, suave man walking beside her, she did not appear overshadowed. Her sharp eyes and composed demeanor radiated confidence, her neutral expression betraying nothing as she took in her surroundings.

    Eva tried to push him away, but Damien effortlessly pulled her back, pressing her body into his chest, solid as a wall. “I don’t have enough experience for that,” she muttered, her gaze shifting away to hide her embarrassment. She was skilled in many things, but kissing wasn’t one of them.At her admission, a surge of possessiveness coursed through Damien. His voice was firm and resolute as he said, “You don’t need experience. I’ll teach you.” His dark eyes held a depth of devotion that sent shivers down her spine.Eva thought he was joking, but the intensity in his gaze told her otherwise. Reluctantly, she smirked, “Alright, have it your way.”Seeing her compliance, his lips curved into a contented smile that only brightened his mood further.“"I have somewhere to take you," Damien said, his deep voice drawing Eva’s attention.She glanced up at him, her curiosity piqued, but instead of asking questions, she handed him her purse and cell phone without hesitation.
