He was a little shaken.
Now that he couldn’t think of any solutions himself, maybe he could listen to Desmond’s advice.
“Let’s hear it.”
For the first time, Desmond felt he finally had a chance to be useful in front of Damian.
He pushed aside the glass in front of him, putting on the air of someone with experience.
“Dami, have you ever heard the saying, ‘A good woman can’t resist a persistent man,‘ and ‘When a woman says no, she means yes‘!
When it comes to chasing women, forget about your pride–just three words: ‘shameless persistence‘!
No matter how Claudine rejects you, just remember–stick to her!
Trust me, this trick never fails!”
After saying this, Desmond couldn’t help but shoot Damian a smug look.
Damian looked at Desmond as if he were an idiot.
He felt that he must really be sick!
To actually waste time listening to Desmond’s nonsense!
He finished the last sip of his drink, got up, and walked out.
Desmond thought Damian had taken his words to heart, feeling quite pleased with himself, and didn’t forget to remind Damian.
“Dami, remember–be shameless!”
He shouted this just as the music in the bar changed.
In the brief silence, Desmond’s words echoed across the entire bar.
Everyone’s eyes fell on Desmond, and Damian just wanted to get as far away from this fool as possible!
Belmont Estates.
Lindsay brought Claudine home, and the doctor was already waiting.
The bump on Claudine’s head was nothing serious; some ointment would take care of it.

However, she was running a slight fever now.
It was probably from being chilled by the sea breeze, or maybe from being frightened.
The doctor prescribed some fever medicine for Claudine, explained the dosage to Lindsay, and then left.
Lindsay poured Claudine a glass of water.
“Mrs. Barrette, please take your medicine first.”
Claudine took the glass and swallowed the pills.
“Thank you, I’m fine now. You should go home and rest early.”
Lindsay was a bit worried, but there was a pile of work waiting for her at the office.
She couldn’t stay here to keep watch.
“Mrs. Barrette, please rest well. Goodbye!”
After Lindsay left, Claudine was alone in the bedroom.
She had taken the fever medicine, her head was groggy, but she still couldn’t sleep.
She turned on her phone, and unsurprisingly, there was no news about today online.
Damian was skilled–if he wanted to block a story, nothing could get past him!
So why had the online attacks against her been allowed to rage out of control?
It was simply because he didn’t care!
Damian kept saying he didn’t want a divorce, that he wanted to make things work with her.
But time and again, even knowing Audrey was stirring up trouble on purpose, he still chose to side with Audrey!
He knew full well that the news about her online was Audrey’s malicious slander, yet he still told her to let it go.
He even protected Audrey in front of so many people, disregarded her dignity, dragged her away, and, ignoring fear, drove like a madman!
Love or not–it’s painfully obvious!
Fortunately, she no longer cared about any of this.
She just wanted to leave!
Claudine opened the recording on her phone.
She had recorded everything Audrey said to her at the exhibition hall earlier.
She pressed play and listened to the voices inside.

She sent the recording to Lawyer Luo, hoping it could serve as evidence.
Claudine knew in her heart that sooner or later, she and Damian would end up facing each other in court.
From eighteen to twenty–nine, this man had left a deep, indelible mark on her life.
Now, to erase that mark completely, it would naturally be a painful process.
For her, and for Damian, it was the same.
Claudine also sent the recording to Adriana.

No matter what the relationship between Adriana and Audrey was, she couldn’t just stand by and watch Adriana be deceived by Audrey, nor could she let Adriana’s reputation be ruined at Audrey’s hands.
Soon, the sound of a car came from downstairs.
Claudine was standing by the window at that moment.
She saw clearly–it was Damian who had come back!
The driver helped Damian out of the car.
Perhaps sensing something, Damian looked up and saw the woman on the balcony.
Their eyes met, but Claudine just stood there calmly, her expression unreadable.
Yet that cold gaze chilled Damian’s heart more than the winter night wind.
The night was as calm as water.
In the yard, only the faint sound of the wind remained.
They just looked at each other like that.
Though the distance between them was so short, Damian felt as if he could never reach her again!
Claudine returned to the bedroom.
