Chapter 17 It Makes Sense That You Are Not Interested in Me
As she stood barefooted, Damara was soaked entirely, with her long hair dripping water.
Her nails were neatly trimmed, and her rounded, fair toes that were curled up revealed her
nervousness.
Abner gave her a meaningful nce, closed hisptop, and sneered, “Honey? You’re not nning to
hide your thoughts anymore, are you?”
Noticing his gaze, Damara looked down at herself and realized that even the outline of her bra was
visible under the light.
Her already pale face instantly turned red as if it would bleed. In a panic, she ran back to the bathroom.
Uninterested in ying along with her feigned reluctance, Abner picked up theptop and documents
from the side and got ready to leave. A photo slipped out from the files and slowlynded on the floor.
Before he could pick it up, he heard the bathroom door being pushed open again.
There were no spare clothes here, so Damara wrapped herself in a towel, her wet hair pinned up. She
revealed her face, and her tone and actions were much more respectful than before.
“Mr. Robinson, I’m sorry about what happened just now.”
She lowered her head and took out a prepared card, “I’ll arrange a new room for you andpensate
you for all the me ntal distress caused.”

He had saved her from Allen, but she was returning the ingratitude,
It was an offense from a woman he didn’t like.
Not unleashing his fury was already a sign of his restraint.
“Me ntal distresspensation?”
Abner repeated, confirming that he had heard correctly.
Damara clutched the towel, her grip tight due to uncase, causing the towel to crumple.
Perhaps the drugs were still affecting her.
She looked up at Abner, and their eyes met. The words she had organized and prepared earlier had
suddenly vanished from her mind.
Instead, scenes of her clinging to him and forcibly kissing him shed by. She felt her chest surging
with waves, and her face was still burning hot.
The only relief was that Abner seemed unaware of her identity.
“You think I need money? Or are you deliberately saying this to get my attention?”
Abner scrutinized her from head to toe.
“What makes you think I would be interested in you?”
Earlier on the court, she had the nerve to tell Allen that she was the wife of the Robinson Group’s
president. But now, she pretended she couldn’t wait to distance herself from him. What a lousy actress
she
was!

Abner no longer wanted to stay in this room.
He bent down and picked up the photos from the floor. Thest one was near Damara’s feet.
Stepping back, Damara helped pick it up.
Just as she was about to hand it over, she nced at the photo, and a trace of surprise shed through
her eyes.
Wasn’t this the vi she had designed?
Surprised, she held onto the photo and didn’t immediately give it to Abner.
Noticing her staring at the photo in her hand, Abner frowned.
Capturing the coldness in his eyes, Damara quickly returned to her senses and returned the photo,
saying, “Mr. Robinson, it’s normal that you are not interested in me. But what happened tonight, it’s all
my fault, and if possible, I’d like topensate you elsewhere.”
She never thought anything would happen between them, so his somewhat insulting words didn’t
bother her much, just made her feel awkward.
Her tense nerves rxed a bit, and she regained herposure.
Compensate elsewhere?
What else could it be?
Abner gave her a cold nce, took the photo from her hand, and remained indifferent.
He turned to leave, but then he heard her say, “Are these photos from Mr. Payne?”

Abner hadn’t expected that, at this moment, she would still be trying to bug him.
Unable to help himself, he chuckled lightly, a hint of sarcasm shing in his eyes, “Don’t tell me you’re
friends with this designer and want to introduce them to me.”
