Chapter 19 Compensation for That Night The room fell silent, and even the clock ticking on the wall could be heard clearly. Abner felt like he might be experiencing auditory hallucinations for the second time. So, she called him “honey” because she mistook him for someone che? The crystal chandelier cast a gentle glow on her face as she continued, “I can’t remember what happened that night, and I believe you have also forgotten. I’m sorry for mistaking you for my husband just now” They were both adults, and since Cali was behind that mess, there was no need to blame Abner or make him take responsibility for anything What mattered now was work, there was no point in dwelling on her virginity. “Mr. Robinson, if you are interested in my design, please tell me your requirements.” She smoothly changed the subject, as if that night’s incident was not worth mentioning, Abner remained silent. In the bathroom earlier, he accidentally caught a glimpse of the hic keys under her transparent clothing that had not completely faded. It reminded him of how out of control he was that night. That night… it might be worse, She returned home like that, and her husband didn’t even ask for a 0.00% Chapter 19 Compensation for That Night 40 Vouchers divorce. Was he indifferent, or were there problems in their relationship? He leaned back for a moment and quickly resumed his composed and calm expression. “I should be the one apologizing. If what happened that night ruined your relationship with your husband…” Before he could finish, Damara interrupted, “No, it didn’t.”
She looked straight into his eyes, her gaze sincere. “It’s still as usual.” They were strangers before, and they remained so now. Nothing would change. Originally, Abner was not particularly interested in her marital status, but her words sparked a hint of mockery in his eyes. As usual? Could a man tolerate being cuc kolded by someone else? Within his territory, he would never allow another male presence. He recalled what Damara had said earlier. If this deal went through, she would make at least a million from it. What was her husband doing while she had to work so hard? That man seemed to be a stay-at-home leech. Abner stood up and said, “You can take on the A&U Villa project and consider it as…” His gaze paused on her rosy lips. “Compensation for that night.” Her lips were beautifully shaped, with a slight curve in the middle. When she pursued them, a small pearl-like shape appeared. 23.02% 12:45 Chapter 19 Compensation for That Night 40 (Vouchers A glimmer of surprise flickered in Damara’s eyes. She didn’t expect to secure the A&U Villa project for real. “Sure, I won’t let you down, Mr. Robinson. If you have any ideas, please communicate with me anytime.” She was seemingly unfazed by his mention of compensation. Abner frowned as that upset feeling resurfaced. Half an hour ago, she hugged and kissed him, but now, after sobering up, she turned aloof again. It was the first time in over twenty years that he felt as though he was genuinely being despised, and this realization made him highly uncomfortable.
He approached the door and heard her say, “Mr. Robinson, how much for the clothes?” “It’s a gift for you.” He replied coldly and promptly opened the door to leave. “Bang!” The door was slammed shut. Damara’s legs turned weak, and her forehead was covered in tiny beads of sweat. She returned to the bathroom and splashed her face with cold water. She didn’t know what drug Allen used, but the effects she had suppressed earlier lingered. Her body was now feverish as if thousands of ants were crawling all over her, causing itchiness and discomfort. 46.81% 12 46 Chapter 19 Compensation for That Night 40 Wouchers Abner had allowed her to stay in this room, and she couldn’t leave just yet with her current condition. So, she decided to fill the bathtub with water again. The water temperature was too low, but it was the only option. She undressed and placed her clothes neatly aside before getting into the bathtub. The coldness made her teeth chatter. Exhausted, she leaned against the tub’s edge and fell asleep. When she woke up, it was nearly seven in the morning. As she stepped out of the bathtub, she almost tripped. The drug’s effects had worn off, but she felt light-headed from soaking in water all night, and her vision blurred momentarily. Damara quickly dried herself and put on the nearby clothes. Leaning against the wall, she struggled to walk out and decided to go to the hospital first. Opening the door, she noticed a tall and striking figure standing at the opposite door.
His appearance was too outstanding, his body proportions excessively perfect, and he wore a sharp black designer suit that would catch anyone’s attention. Damara hurriedly greeted, “Good morning, Mr. Robinson.” Abner glanced at her and calmly said, “Hmm,” before walking towards the elevator. Damara pressed the elevator button, politely smiling, “Considering the clothes and the room fee, it must be a considerable sum. The breakfast 68.45% 12:46 Chapter 19 Compensation for That Night 11:49 Wouchers at this hotel is famous. Do you have time, Mr. Robinson? Allow me to treat you.” Abner initially wanted to decline since he had several meetings in the morning. However, he noticed her watery eyes and pale complexion, which made him frown slightly He averted his gaze and spoke in an icy tone, “Sure, whatever.”Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
