"If you could be as shameless as I am, Dr. Davies, then I'm sure you could get Damon to sleep with you as well," Celeste said with a chuckle. She was being honest. After all, she did think herself shameless to trick Damon into sleeping with her countless times. Celeste didn't find herself attractive—all she had was her bravado.Nicholas was incredibly amused by this answer.He quickly understood why Celeste was thought to be attractive and charming. Beautiful women were everywhere, and someone with Damon's status would never find themselves short of women.But unlike these other women, Celeste never imagined Damon would fall in love with her.She did not think badly of herself just because of her career. Nor did she feel happy because she got Damon to sleep with her.These were all just a way for Celeste to achieve her goal, and so no emotions were attached to them."I pity Damon then. He's met such a skilled opponent on his first time around," said Nicholas as his smile widene

Davidson Hospital was the hospital Nicholas opened. It was also the hospital Celeste wished she could visit often.She easily found the emergency room Damon was in. There were already many people waiting outside, two of whom Celeste had met before—Liam and Jasper.They were currently comforting Shannon, who was sobbing her eyes out."What's going on?" Celeste asked. She had been too rushed to ask over the phone earlier."Ms. Shannon ran into the middle of the road to get in Mr. Bishop's way. Mr. Bishop ended up swerving and crashing the car into a railing to keep her safe," Liam explained truthfully."Damon got into the accident all because he didn't want me to get hurt! If something happens to him, I won't let him pass on all alone!" Shannon cried, attracting the attention of the passersby. Only Celeste could see her true intention.While Celeste did think about Damon getting into an accident while driving to City Hall, it turns out it was all because of Shannon … Bitterness w

"You're the one who seduced Damon and stole him from me! How could you act like nothing happened when you're the mistress who ruined our relationship?" Shannon got up and yelled, triggered by the sight before her."You know very well if I'm the mistress here, Shannon York," said Celeste, facing her with a cold expression. She continued with a disdainful tone, "Why not just stop all these tricks and tell the truth? You're like an old, dirty piece of gum stuck under my man's shoes. You're just insulting yourself at this point."Her words made Shannon want the ground to open up and swallow her in embarrassment.Shannon was always mindful of her public appearance. She always wanted to come off as dignified in front of Damon and his friends. But now she'd been reduced to 'an old, dirty piece of gum' …"I'll come visit you tomorrow, Damon," Shannon cried and ran out weeping."Did you have to be so cruel, Celeste?" Damon asked with a furrow of his brow as he watched Shannon leave. He h

"You know how to make noodles?" Damon asked.All the women Damon had ever met were rich heiresses to their family. At most, they could only manage a small cake they had baked. Celeste being able to cook came as a surprise to him.What's more, Celeste's looks and personality made it difficult to connect something as plain as cooking to her."So-so. It won't poison you, I can guarantee that." Celeste's expression was not very happy. If she had known he did not need any more food, she would not have needed to wake up so early!Damon was not bothered by her expression. He grinned and said, "Why don't you let me have a taste?""Only a little then." Celeste unwillingly got some noodles for him. She blew on it to cool it off before feeding it to Damon.Damon ate the portion of noodles and then ate some more. Only then did Celeste look happier.Celeste had not realized how she changed from someone who always hid their emotions in front of Damon to constantly throwing mini tantrums.Sha

Damon's gaze darkened. He took a step back and kicked the front door down.Celeste's apartment was tiny. The door opened right up to her bedroom.The bathroom was to the left of the entrance. A strong smell of blood seeped out from the closed bathroom door.Damon's heart leaped for a moment. He then kicked the bathroom door open.What he saw shocked him so much that he nearly collapsed to his feet.Blood ran freely through the water in the shower stall, staining the floor red.Celeste was crouching underneath the running showerhead when she turned to stare dazedly at Damon. In her right hand was a blade. Her left arm was riddled with open, bloody cuts.The deepest of the cuts revealed bone."Are you out of your mind, Celeste York?" Damon ran over and snatched the blade away before tossing it outside.He hurriedly wrapped a towel around her wounds. Blood soaked through it instantly, even staining his hands."What were you thinking? Why did you hurt yourself?" If Damon had gott
