Damianâs chest heaved and his breathing was becoming uneasy. He slammed the cup down hard on the table, venting his frustration.
Yvette pressed her lips together. She glared at Damian, her eyes flashed with a murderous intent, a dark fury swirling in her gaze Tyson immediately hurried to Damianâs side. He watched Yvette with caution. His heart beat with anxiety.
Even as a teenager, Yvette could easily overpower me, let alone now. If she loses it, I wouldnât be able to stop her, Tyson thought Damian and Yvette locked eyes.
Under Yvetteâs cold stare, Damian finally gave in. He signaled Tyson to step aside, and Tyson reluctantly complied.
I invited you here to catch up, not to create tension,â Damian said.
Yvette chuckled softly and turned her gaze away, a faint smile curling on her lips.
âGet to the point. If I stay here any longer, Iâm afraid someone wonât be leaving alive today,â Yvette said.
Tysonâs back tensed Damian realized Yvetteâs patience was nearly exhausted, so he got straight to the point.
âNathanâs girlfriend, whoâs just one month pregnant, is probably with you, right?â Damian asked.
Damian glanced at Yvetteâs expression before continuing, âAfter all, the child in her belly is of the Goodman family. Itâs not right to let her drift around aimlessly. You shouldnât get involved in this matter. The Goodman family will treat her well. Iâve already looked into her background. She is one of the founders and the brand designer of Vibe. Those two titles arenât particularly high, but theyâre good enough for an in-law of the Goodman family. Donât worry, since sheâs your friend. Iâll have Nathan find a good day to marry her.â
Yvette tilted her head a little, her fingers rhythmically running over the glass. Her elegant eyebrows chilled into a shiver.
âWho do you think you are? The Goodman family wants to marry Sienna off without asking if she wants to?â Yvette said.
Damianâs face darkened. He couldnât believe there would be a woman who wouldnât want to marry into the Goodman family.
Unless she was out of her mind.
Confidently, Darian said to Yvette, âHereâs the deal. Why donât you call that Sienna? Iâve already asked Nathan to be here. Let them meet and sort things out themselves. Weâre not directly involved, so itâs better if they make their own decisions. How does that sound to you?â
Damian, understanding Yvetteâs personality, knew that being forceful wouldnât work. Discussing things calmly was the way to go.
Yvette paused when she heard this. Seeing Damian with his confident, self-assured look, Yvette said slowly, âAlright.â
Then she took out her phone and quickly texted Sienna, getting a reply in less than a minute.
Sienna replied, âGot it, Yve. Iâll be there soon.â
Damian settled back into his seat, noticing his coffee had cooled. He quickly got up to pour himself a fresh cup.
Yvette sat down, pulled out her phone, and started playing a game. This time, she was diving into Super Mario.
As Tyson passed by Yvette, he couldnât help but glance over. The corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily.
Is this game worth spending time on? Tyson thought.
Nathan was in a meeting when he received a call from Tyson.
Seeing the call coming in, he quickly signaled for the meeting to pause and for everyone to step out before answering.
He cleared his throat, saying, âHi Tyson, howâs it going? What brings you to call me today? Is there something Grandpa needs?â
Tyson replied, âNo, Mr. Damian Goodman is at Royal Phoenix and wants to see you.â
Tyson paused briefly and went on, âYvette is here too. Mr. Damian Goodman wants to address things personally between you and Ms. Sterling. It would be great if you could come over, Mr. Nathan Goodman.
Nathanâs grip tightened on the phone, his expression changing multiple times. He hadnât anticipated Damian would learn about Sienna so quickly.
Braydon is right. Grandpa never sincerely plans to pass on the control to us, Nathan thought.
âOkay, Tyson. Iâm heading over right now,â Nathan said.
After hanging up, Nathan tidied himself up, feeling a mix of excitement and nervousness at the anticipation of seeing Sienna/soon. He was truly in love with her.
Before leaving, Nathan sent a quick text to Braydon to update him on the situation.
Outside Royal Phoenixâs entrance, Sienna saw Nathan getting out of the car and felt like letting loose with some choice. words.
Is fate playing tricks on me? How could it be such a coincidence to run into him here? Sienna thought.
Originally, Frankie was supposed to drop Sienna off today. But something came up last minute, and Frankie couldnât make With only Bruce at home, there was no other option but to have Bruce drive Sienna over from the remote villa.
Bruce was about to turn around and leave after seeing Sienna go inside, but then he unexpectedly saw Nathan Seeing Sienna looking a bit scared and unsure of what to do, Bruce paused slightly on the steering wheel, then pulled out the car key and walked over with his long strides.
âLetâs go, Iâll walk you in myself,â Bruce said.
Sienna was stunned to see Bruce return, feeling a bit bewildered, but she nodded. She naturally followed behind Bruce. Seeing Sienna with another man, Nathanâs anger flared up. He jogged over and reached out to grab Sienna. Bruce noticed Nathanâs action and turned to block Nathanâs reaching hand. Bruce had a calm and icy expression âMr. Goodman, watch your hand, Bruce warned.
Nathan realized he had missed grabbing Sienna, so he pulled his hand back. He glared at Bruce unfriendly.
Tin trying to hold my girlfriend Whatâs it to you? Who are you anyway? I suggest you donât interfere.â Nathan said.
After that, he turned to Sienna and said, âSienna, has the baby been fussy these days? Has he been good?â
Without holding back, Sienna retorted, âNathan, stop pretending, okay? How could a one-month-old baby be upsetting Stop coming up with nonsense! What kind of devoted boyfriend role are you playing now? Howâs that secretary of yours, Linda?â
Originally, Sienna didnât want to fight with Nathan, but since he was being so nasty to her, Sienna decided not to hold back.
Nathan noticed the disdain in Siennaâs eyes, his heart skipped a beat, especially when she mentioned Linda.
Linda was just a casual pastime for him, but Nathan didnât expect Sienna to find out. Nathan was about to explain more when Tyson came down from the third floor, interrupting him.
âMr. Nathan Goodman, Mr. Damian Goodman is waiting inside for you Ms. Sterling. Yvette is also in there. Please, follow meâ
After speaking. Tyson glanced at Bruce. His voice was cold, saying, âUnauthorized personnel are not allowed inside. I apologize, sir.â
Sienna nervously glanced at Bruce. It was clear that her meeting with Nathan here was no coincidence.
Yve definitely wouldnât take advantage of me. She is probably to resolve the issue between me and Nathan, Sienna thought.
Bruce looked at Tyson, sensing a strong martial arts aura. âHe is an expert, Bruce thought.
Upon hearing Tysonâs words, he thought, âWho else could Mr. Damian Goodman be but Nathanâs grandfather, once the king of the underground world in Mysonna?
The rumors are true. He is back. But why is Yvette with Damian?
Bruce was filled with countless doubts and decided to wait for them to come out.
Bruce ignored Tyson and looked down at the slightly nervous Sienna, his tone softening, saying, âNo need to worry, Iâll be right outside. Just call me if you need anything With Yvette here, you can relax. Iâll wait for all of you to go home together.â
Nathanâs face suddenly changed, and he began to doubt the relationship between Sienna and Bruce. His hands clenched tightly into fists. He wished he could kill Bruce right now.
Tyson glanced nonchalantly at the three of them.
