Alexander was lost in his thoughts when he suddenly heard Isabe say something. Before he
could even react, Isabe had already grabbed him, and they were running.
They were originally nning to head to the underground garage after dinner, ready to retrieve their
car and leave.
As a result, Isabe suddenly pulled him behind a colum.
Then, the sound of the conversation between the man and the woman came through.
At that moment, Alexander remembered. Originally, the Winters and Carney families were
supposed to have a dinner gathering that night, likely right here. After all, most of the high–end
restaurants in the city were located in this mall owned by Quirk Group.
Although Damien shouldn’t have attended such gatherings, he was certainly aware of the location.
Timing–wise, by the time the gathering dispersed, Damien was perfectly positioned to intercept
people.
It was truly quite a coincidence that they were able to meet

If there was a gossip deity. Isabe was definitely the favored one.
At that moment, Isabe was brimming with excitement, much like a paparazzi who had stumbled
upon a juicy scoop. She was sneakily observing from behind a car, her head bobbing in and out of
view.
Even the esteemed Alexander had no choice but to hide himself. If the security personnel in the
surveince room saw their big boss engaged in such activities, they would certainly doubt their
own sanity.
“What on earth is going on?” Deborah asked, looking at Damien who seemed to be on the verge of
saying something but stopped, beginning to feel puzzled.
It seemed as though this was the first time the two of them had arranged to meet alone, which felt
rather unfamiliar, despite both of them having known each other for a long time, and they were even
going to be inws soon.
However, Deborah was rather skeptical about whether the two of them could get along
harmoniously. After all, she always felt their personalities were notpatible.
She was the type who took time to warm up to people, her friends were always the ones to initiate
contact, pulling her into their social circles. So, it was unlikely for her to take the initiative to get to
know someone.
Damien was typically outgoing, yet he never made an effort to socialize with her. As a result, their
friendship was rather superficial, as if it had never truly been established. It was merely sustained
by the passage of time.
Damien was warm and enthusiastic toward others, yet toward Deborah, he was indifferent and
distant. It seemed like a case of ipatible personalities.
So, being asked out alone that night, and being told there was something important to discuss in
truly took Deborah by surprise.

At that moment, the two individuals hiding behind the distant car couldn’t help but feel their hearts
leap with apprehension.
Is he really about to confess his feelings? At such a critical moment? Is it because he was annoyed
with his sister and Oliver? So, is this going to lead to a fight over the bride?
The more Isabe thought about it, the more excited she became.
Even Alexander was somewhat uncertain about what would happen next..
Finally, Damien began to speak.
Gradually, disappointment started to cloud Isabe’s face, while Alexander’s demeanor slowly
turned indifferent.
Well, this guy isn’t confessing his feelings. He simply revealed what was going on between Oliver
and Ruby.
“Sorry.” After Damien uttered those words, he looked at Deborah with aplex expression.
Deborah was indeed taken aback. “He’s quite audacious It’s one thing to mess with other women,
but to dare touch your sister, he’s not afraid of creating a major scandal within the family.”
“That’s how things stand. No matter what decision you choose to make, I’ll be there to support you.”
Damien dered.
Deborah was taken aback for a moment. “What do I want to do? I don’t really care. It’s the Winters
family and the Willis family who should be worried. In fact, itdoesn’t concern me much.”
Damien froze, then let out augh. It felt as if he was mocking himself. “Sure enough,” he said. “I
shouldn’t have thought of you as a fragile girl.”
Deborah was somewhat taken aback by the expression on Damien’s face at that moment. It was as
if his eyes, which were looking at her, were hiding some kind of secret.
However, she didn’t have much curiosity, merely shrugged her shoulders and said, “It doesn’t
matter if my future husband is a saint or a sinner, as long as the one who runs the household, my
mother–inw, is decent.
Damien gave a light smile, his expression tinged with bitterness. “Aunt Lydia is a wonderful person,”
he said, “She will treat you well.”
With a faint smile, Deborah then said, “Thank you for letting me know about this. If there’s nothing
else, I’ll be on my way.”
Being alone with Damien always made her feel incredibly ufortable.
Damien nodded,
In the end, Isabe and Alexander could only watch as Damien’s deste gaze followed Deborah’s
car as it
drove away.
Once the two of them got in the car, Isabe finally couldn’t hold back her frustration and scoffed.
“Hmph! What a waste of my emotions!”
Alexander, on the other hand, didn’t find it surprising.

Isabe couldn’t help but turn around and question Alexander, “Do you think he came toin
because he was worried about Deborah, afraid that she might not know about the troublemaker
who is so close by, or was he hoping that once Deborah knew about this connection, she would
finally be unable to ept Oliver and call off the marriage alliance?”
Alexander said, “Both are true. The primary goal was the former, but what he truly desired was the
latter. He was fond of Deborah, so how could he not wish to change the marriage alliance?”
Isabe suddenly came to her senses, looking at Alexander in surprise. “You… you know?” she
asked.
With an air of understanding, Alexander confidently stated from atop his horse. “I figured it out a
long time ago.”
“You really let me down, not even telling me!” Isabe immediately turned the tables.
She knew through the system that it was a sensitive issue, so how could Alexander have known
about such a huge secret and still kept it from her?
I have shot myself in the foot….
Isabe didn’t pick a fight with Alexander, now that they both had roughly the same information, it
was naturally time for them to indulge in some gossip.
*If that’s the case, then Damien is truly despicable. He didn’t dare to fight for love himself, yet he
hoped that Deborah would take the initiative. Honestly, Damien’s long–standing secret crush,
though touching. was merely self–indulgent. He’s a coward, unworthy of Deborah,” Isabe stated
bluntly.
Though Alexander understood Damien’s deep gratitude toward Lydia, for her life–saving favor and
the opportunities she provided, he had to admit that Damien’s handling of the situation was rather
poor.
“Truthfully, in Damien’s perspective, he had already snatched away the possibility of the
benefactor’s son inheriting the family business. He just couldn’t bear to also take away the chance
of the benefactor arranging the most suitable bride for his son. Hence, why things turned out this
way…
“But isn’t the Winters family’s fortune supposed to go to the most capable?” Isabe countered.
“So he became fixated on the idea that without Mdm. Lydia, he would have been long dead, and he
wouldn’t have developed the skills he has now. He believed that his ability to inherit the family
business was all thanks to Mdm. Lydia. If Mdm. Lydia had been selfish and ignored him when he
was young, it’s very likely that everything in the Winters family would have belonged to Oliver.
Moreover, he felt that Oliver’s current pitiful state might very well be the result of his own actions
and theparisons drawn
between them.”
Isabe was truly at a loss for words. Everything was just aplete mess
Of course, in this rtionship, Deborah was essentially an outsider, so there was no need for her to
view things from the perspective of a victim. Isabe was simply venting about Damien’s less–than–
impressive romantic gestures.
With a whirlwind of emotions, the engagement party had finally arrived.
This time, the whole family was on the move again.
The Quirk family never missed any opportunity to attend events with Isabe.

knew what exciting drama they might miss out on?

It had to be said, there were quite a few people who shared a simr mindset with the Quirk family.
Upon arriving at the venue. Isabe felt as if she was attracting more intense gazes than usual.
Uh. I couldn’t shake off this sudden feeling of pressure, even though there is indeed much gossip
around, they are all dumb ones, incapable of causing any uproar. At most, I can oily secretly
observe the undercurrents beneath their surfaces. Like this one right here, his dark circles were
impossible to hide. Tough it out, coward! This is the path you chose for yourself.
The Quirk family followed Isabe’s gaze and saw Damien apanying a very dignified and
elegantdy, weing guests.
