Chapter 693

As she spoke, Casey pulled out her phone and opened a chat window. On the screen, a photo came into view.

A man and a woman were pressed close together. The man appeared to have dozed off, while the woman’s lips were pressed against his face.

A mocking smile flickered across Casey’s eyes.

“Damien, do you understand now?”

Damien froze for a moment, then instinctively started to defend himself. “It’s not true… She… Adriana took that while I was drunk. You know I can’t hold my liquor, and there were so many friends around… They can

all vouch for me…”

Casey cut him off coldly. “If you weren’t with Adriana, how could she have gotten such a photo?”

Damien’s eyes darted nervously. “She works at that club. We just… ran into each other by chance—”

Casey’s tone dripped with sarcasm. “By chance? Every single day by chance?”

Ever since Adriana returned, Casey had been inundated with harassing messages. Adriana begged her to control her boyfriend, claiming she’d already paid for past mistakes and asking not to be further punished.

At first, naive as she was, Casey felt genuine sympathy. She even pleaded on Adriana’s behalf, and when Adriana once again messaged her-claiming Damien and a group of friends had come to trouble her-Casey personally went to the scene.

She saw Adriana being harassed by a spoiled brat. Damien watched coldly.

But Casey noticed something: the moment the brat grabbed Adriana’s hand, Damien’s eyes turned deadly. Shortly after, he smashed his glass and punched the man.

Casey had been with Damien for years and had never seen him lose control like that. Since taking over the company, he had grown mature and composed. He had learned to conceal his emotions. Fighting… was something only immature boys did.

It was at that moment Casey realized that all of Adriana’s pleas had been another form of provocation- designed to show that Damien would lose control for her, and only for her.

Damien suddenly stepped forward and took Casey’s hand, breaking her train of thought.

“Casey, babe, you know the truth. Back then, she abandoned me when I needed her most. She ignored my pleas and walked away without a glance. I feel nothing for her now-only hatred.”

Casey snapped back to herself and impatiently shook off his hand. Even looking at him made her physically

nauseated.

“Sharon, let’s go,” she said.

Sharon, standing nearby, finally seemed to understand what had happened and nodded slightly.

Just as they were about to leave, Damien blocked Casey, his voice unusually gentle.

“Casey, babe, I haven’t agreed to this breakup.”

Casey, repulsed, stepped back several paces, keeping her distance.

“A breakup doesn’t require the other person’s consent.”

Her expression of disgust cut into Damien’s eyes like a blade. Yet the smile on his lips deepened, a predator’s calm.

He leaned down, looking at her from above.

“Casey, babe, you need to understand. I only indulge you, so you have the right to throw a fit. But if you insist on breaking up…”

He paused, his smile turning cruel.

“I could very well keep you as my lover. You know I never joke… and I… can make it happen. Don’t you remember your homeless days?”

Casey’s pupils constricted. Her face went pale. She would never forget that time in her life, how utterly desperate she had been.

When she had attempted to leave Damien, he had tried to stop her multiple times. Seeing her unyielding, he lost patience entirely.

“Casey, I will make you beg to come back to me.”

He froze her bank accounts, leaving her unable to rent a place or find work. She would rather sleep on the streets than return to him. Then he even sent someone to steal all the money she had left. She couldn’t even afford food.

Old friends avoided her. None dared to help.

He had been forcing her back. She had tried to rationalize it, telling herself to be with him just for money, but she couldn’t swallow that.

She had cared for him when he was blind. And yet, once they fell out, he left her no way to survive, as though she had been an enemy rather than a devoted girlfriend.

How had she survived those days?

She scavenged leftovers at KFC, slept at train stations at night. Eventually, a good friend of Damien’s couldn’t bear it and secretly gave her some money, allowing her to finally leave the city.

After leaving, her luck seemed to change. She met Sharon on the very first day, found a job, picked up the piano again, and met a group of good friends. She treasured this new life and never wanted to return to that nightmare.c

Casey took a deep breath to calm herself.

“Fine. If you’ve got the guts, come on then.”

As she turned to leave, Damien’s voice rang out again.

“Casey, babe, you can’t leave until I say so.

Before she could react, two bodyguards stepped out from behind him. They moved to restrain her.

Sharon rushed forward to help.

But then a hand gripped her wrist.

Before she could react, she was slammed violently to the ground, scraping her arm and leaving a streak of blood.

Damien’s voice loomed over her.

“Out of respect for my grandfather, I’ll give you one chance. Meddle again, and don’t blame me for being ruthless.”
