After listening to Marcus, Damon stayed silent for a long time.

When the truth about Demian's death was laid out before him, Damon couldn’t bring himself to face it.

The paternity test results hadn't come in yet, and he still didn’t know if that child was really Demian’s. But in his heart, Damon had already decided that Delilah would have to pay for what she had done.

“President Price and I, are already aware of the situation. If you don’t have anything else to say, you can leave now. Don’t worry, before then, we will make sure you and your family are safe.”

Marcus’s visit to the Price Corp would definitely reach Delilah’s ears, and who knew what illegal actions she might take next.

After Marcus left, Kin, noticing that Damon’s mood wasn’t good, also left the office.

Damon sat alone in the office for a long time. Even as the day turned to night, he remained in the darkness, as if he couldn’t feel the fading light from the outside world.

    In fact, the second episode was supposed to feature quite a few shots of Bailey. It was a suggestion from Amber, who said that having more screen time for her would boost the program’s popularity. However, when the director saw the scene online two days before the broadcast, he immediately called the editing team to work overnight and re-edited the episode, cutting out many of Bailey's scenes.Even so, after the episode aired, it still received a lot of criticism.After all, the director had promised Amber he wouldn’t overdo it. He had only cut a few scenes, not made drastic changes.But even this was enough to make Bailey lose her patience. She called the director's phone directly, shouting angrily.“Are you even fit to be in this industry? Miss Amber said that as long as I have more screen time, the program will keep the buzz going. What’s this mess? How can the show be popular now? No wonder you can't even make a decent program.”Although

  • Sorry Ex, This Queen Is No Longer Yours   Matchmaking Mission

    In the underground garage of the Queen family mansion, Hazel drove back to her villa alone after bidding farewell to Sully. She had contacted Omar in advance, and they were meeting tonight at the villa. Since the last dinner gathering, both of them had been busy with work, and they hadn’t seen each other in such a long time. Hazel hadn’t even returned to her newly renovated villa. If it weren’t for Butler Benson, who often brought people to clean, the house would have likely gathered a layer of dust by now. When Hazel arrived home, the villa was brightly lit, as though it were filled with people. She drove straight into the yard, and both Butler Benson and Omar came out to greet her when they heard the car. "Miss Queen, you’re finally back! If you hadn’t, Mr. Omar would’ve asked me to call you again," Butler Benson said with a smile. Omar, who had followed him out, playfully slapped Butler Benson on the back, though his face still looked a bit anno

    Given the current situation at Queen Corp, it's not ideal for Hazel to keep isolating herself in the company; she needs to broaden her horizons and meet more people. Even if the blind dates don’t work out, she might still end up connecting with potential business partners. Thinking about it this way, this meal wouldn’t be a waste after all. "Alright, alright, I’ll agree to it. Since we have guests coming over, I can at least go upstairs and freshen up, right?" Hazel teased, trying to get out of it. Omar still didn’t let go of her hand, his sharp eyes watching her closely, as though afraid that if he loosened his grip for even a second, she’d turn around and run. Finally, Hazel had no choice but to give in and plop down on the couch. "Grandpa, I know you’ve set up a blind date for me today. I'm not planning to run away. Even if I don’t end up with any of them, I can at least make a few friends. Queen Corp's situation does require me to expand my network."

    "If I were you, I wouldn’t bring up our last meeting right now. Or are you afraid I won’t remember the things you did with Jonah?" Omar didn’t know what had happened between them, and Hazel didn’t intend to let him know, so she didn’t elaborate further. But just that one sentence made Marco understand Hazel’s thoughts. It seemed that any hopes he had of making her his girlfriend should be put to rest. "What’s going on? You’ve met before? That’s not surprising, but why are you bringing up Jonah?" Before Marco could respond, Hazel quickly dismissed it. "It’s nothing. Their company has always worked with ours. It’s just some business matters we ran into before." She shot Marco a warning glance. Fortunately, he wasn’t foolish and quickly grasped her intent, switching the topic. "Yeah, I met Hazel once before due to work, and I have a good impression of her." Omar stepped forward, standing by Hazel’s side, smiling at the group of men. "I alway

    Hazel noticed Grant’s discomfort and quickly shifted the topic. "I was just joking. Don’t take it to heart. I just thought everyone was being too formal, so I wanted to lighten the mood." Hazel had expected there would be some second-generation heirs among the guests, but she didn’t expect there to be someone as innocent as Grant among them. When Grant heard her say it was just a joke, he looked up at Hazel, clearly relieved. "You were really joking?" "Of course. It's just a family matter for us Queens. It’s normal for you not to know. Even if you did, I wouldn’t be upset over something so small." Hazel was sitting on an armchair, while Adam, Marco, and Grant were seated on the long sofa in the middle. Charles sat across from her on another armchair. Vincent, on the other hand, was slouched on a lazy sofa nearby. He hadn’t said a word yet and looked like he might fall asleep any moment. "I knew Hazel was a person of great grace and magnanimity," Marco s

  • Sorry Ex, This Queen Is No Longer Yours   Damon's Rival

    In the past, Charles had stolen several projects from other companies to plug the holes in his family’s business. While he used reputable methods, those whose projects he took saw him as a common enemy. Hazel didn’t know much about Charles, except for what she had heard from Sully. If it hadn’t been for Omar organizing this gathering, she probably wouldn’t have met him in the next few years. After all, Charles seemed to have issues with the Price family, especially with Damon. Since Damon had helped her so much, she had no reason to get close to his enemy. “I’ve heard a bit about your issues with the Price family, but as long as the business competition is fair and legal, there’s nothing to say. It’s all about skill,” she said casually. Losing a project to Charles wasn’t shameful, but someone like Damon, who cared about face, would definitely hold a grudge. For years, Damon’s reputation had reigned in Vernon, so it wasn’t surprising that he would have a grudge ag

    After thinking for a moment, she added, “And Vincent, although he didn’t say a word, that makes him even more intriguing.” “Grant is also fine as a younger brother figure. He’s so pure. When we talked, everything seemed new and interesting to him. It was kind of fun.” “As for Adam and Marco… I don’t really feel anything for Adam, since he’s working with Jonah now. As for Marco, I didn’t like him from the start. I wasn’t fond of him when we first met.” Hazel named each person, and Omar practically wanted to grab a notebook to jot everything down. “I could tell you didn’t like Marco. I don’t like him either. If it weren’t for his family’s connections, I wouldn’t have invited him here!” Butler Benson furrowed his brows. If he remembered correctly, Marco was chosen by Omar personally. “When I invited Adam, I had my reservations too, but after thinking it over, it’s fine. If you get along with him, it’ll be easier when you deal with Jonah.” Omar was thi

    Delilah was still in the hospital recovering from childbirth, yet she somehow managed to secretly take Marcus’s child away. Damon stared at the limited surveillance footage on his phone, unable to make out the features of the person who took the child. It seemed he had underestimated Delilah. “Kin, I’m giving you no more than two days. You must bring the child Delilah took back to me. Delegate all your tasks at the company to your assistant—don’t worry about anything else. Your sole focus is tracking down this child.” For Delilah to take such action, it meant she had likely figured out some of what Marcus had done. It made sense—Marcus had originally planned to run away but suddenly decided not to. Her suspicions were only natural. However, Damon still wasn’t sure if Delilah knew about Marcus’s visit to the Price Corp. He figured he’d have to stop by the hospital after work to confirm. To gain Delilah’s trust, he would need Agatha’s help. It seemed

    "How about this," said Adam, "I'll help you this time, and in the future, if I need anything for work, you'll be the first one I call." Hazel froze for a moment. Adam was referring to work-related matters, which on the surface seemed harmless, but something about his words made her uneasy. Maybe it was the fact that he hadn’t explicitly mentioned what kind of help he would need, which left her feeling a bit anxious. "Don’t worry, it won’t negatively affect your company. We’re just making a verbal agreement. If it ever goes against your principles, you can always refuse," he added with a reassuring smile. Hazel relaxed, the tension in her chest finally easing. She was a person of integrity, and the thought of breaking her word never crossed her mind. Only after Adam pointed it out did she realize the possibility of not following through on an agreement, though she had never considered it before. "Since you've said that, I have no further concerns. If there's ever

    However, after hearing what the manager had just said, Hazel began to feel that she shouldn’t approach Adam first. Instead, she should check with Ariana to see what she thought.Considering Ariana’s personality, even if Adam agreed, Ariana might not.“Mr. Fleur, you’re here. Please sit down. Let me know what you’d like to eat. I haven’t ordered yet.”Hazel placed the pre-prepared menu in front of Adam.After this incident, she finally understood what Omar had meant when he said it wasn’t a bad idea to know more people.At least now, when she reached out to these people, it didn’t feel awkward. They had already met before and had some prior contact.The waiter came in after them, and after Adam ordered two dishes, he handed the menu back to Hazel. Hazel added two more dishes, then signaled the waiter to leave.“Is there something you needed to say at this hour, Mr. Queen? Something urgent?”Adam let out a light snort, feeling a

    Seeing Xander was also present, Hazel steadied her emotions. "Nothing much, just ran into some uncomfortable situations while having dinner, so I came back early. What are you two discussing?" Noticing that Hazel didn’t want to bring up what had just happened, Xander quickly shifted the topic, concerned that Sully would continue asking. "We’re about to launch our brand, so we’re thinking about finding a spokesperson. We still haven’t decided who to choose." They were in the clothing business, both men’s and women’s wear, but their focus was primarily on women’s clothing, so the spokesperson would be a woman. They were also looking to hire two or three celebrities for advertisements, both male and female. It was still in the planning stages, but they could delay the advertising a bit. The spokesperson, however, couldn’t be delayed much longer, since there was quite a bit of preparation involved for the spokesperson's role. Considering their planned launc

    Hazel was naturally very familiar with the ringtone. Her expression changed instantly, realizing that Damon had been monitoring her all the way here.Seeing the look on Hazel’s face, Charles couldn’t help but feel a sense of satisfaction."This ringtone... it can’t be President Price’s, can it? He’s here too?" As he spoke, Charles directed his gaze at Carlos.Carlos took a deep breath, thinking to himself, It’s over. Completely over. It seems impossible for me to get Damon’s help in freeing myself from my parents’ control now.Damon walked out from behind the screen, a look of embarrassment on his face.He instinctively glanced at Carlos, his eyes filled with fury, as if he wanted to dismember Carlos right on the spot.If it weren’t for Hazel and Charles being present, he would have already attacked Carlos directly.Charles hadn’t hung up the phone yet, and Damon’s phone was still ringing in his pocket.

    "What are they talking about so happily? Hazel is even smiling at that Charles?" Damon gritted his teeth, almost wanting to march over and pull Hazel away, but he couldn’t do that. If he showed up in front of Hazel again, she would definitely think he was spying on her. From her reaction last time, it was clear that she really didn’t like being watched. No, nobody likes being watched. "How about you pretend to bump into them and say hi? You guys aren't strangers, it’s normal to greet each other if you run into each other. It’s just like how I bumped into them." Carlos didn’t know about the incident between Damon and Hazel last time, but his suggestion made Damon realize that there was now someone else present, besides himself. When he turned back to look at Carlos, a glint of understanding flashed in his eyes. Before he could speak, Carlos already understood his meaning. Initially intending to refuse, he thought about it and decided against it. Damon’s

    No matter what, Queen Corp's future path will only get smoother. At this point, when Queen Corp is still not at its peak, collaborating well with them will only benefit the Whitmans, with no drawbacks. Not only that, but Charles also had some personal motives toward Hazel. At first, he just wanted to oppose Damon, which is why he wanted to get close to Hazel. But for some reason, the more he got to know her, the more he found himself drawn to her, unable to pull away. When he thought about it, if he could marry Hazel, it would be great. Both of them were workaholics, and their two companies could have even deeper cooperation. Once the Whitman and Queen families merged, they could become the most powerful group in Vernon, and even the Price family would be nothing compared to them. But these were just thoughts for now. No matter what, Charles could at least try. Whether it worked out or not didn’t matter—what mattered was that he had tried. "For suc

    In the Price Corp building, Kin was reporting to Damon about Delilah’s situation. Since she was already in prison, it was only natural for Kin to make some arrangements. Moreover, Kin had recently uncovered some of Delilah’s past secrets, which made dealing with her even easier. "I’ve taken care of things at the prison, but Delilah keeps shouting, insisting that she wants to see you once. Should we let her?" They already knew most of what needed to be known, and now Delilah wanted to see Damon. It seemed that she regretted telling him everything earlier. If she still had anything Damon didn’t know about, she wouldn’t just be asking to see him. She would have tried to use her secrets to lure him in. Deep down, she must know that Damon would never just visit her for no reason. "Is that all she said, just wanting to see me?" Kin shook his head. "She didn’t say anything else. She was almost out of her mind when she mentioned seeing you. Her mental state doe

    After sending the materials to Bailey, Amber quickly left Bailey’s apartment in a rush.Bailey casually glanced at the script before tossing it aside and continuing with her skincare routine, ready to rest...Sully, who often kept an eye on Bailey, was the first to find out about this. Thinking it was time to strike a blow to Bailey, Sully immediately told Hazel."I know you want to overshadow Bailey, but it really irks me to see her rise so easily. Plus, there’s already a rift between Mr. Moore and Jonah. We don’t have to make a direct move, though."Seeing Hazel hesitate, Sully changed her approach.Hazel could tell that if she didn’t let Sully deal with Bailey, it would certainly bother her. Moreover, what Sully said made sense. Mr. Moore was a great opportunity to add pressure to Jonah.

    Of course, Jonah could tell what was going on. After all, Mr. Moore had always looked down on him, and that wasn’t a secret; many of the company’s employees knew it. Whenever Jonah gave orders, the employees had to check with Mr. Moore first before deciding whether to carry them out. It was clear that they had sidelined him. If it weren’t for Adam confirming Jonah’s position as the CEO, those employees would probably be giving him the cold shoulder. "Mr. Moore, I know you look down on me, but don’t say I didn’t warn you. No matter how much you despise me, this position will never be yours." "Since Adam Fleur trusts you so much, you should know what kind of deal I made with him. Even if he hands over all the power to you, so what? I still get paid as the CEO. I don’t have to do anything, but I still get a nice paycheck. That works just fine for me."
