Chapter 516
In the blink of an eye, his deep gaze moved away from Carolina Petry’s fake smiley face. He lowered his head, and his eyes finally landed on her outstretched hand, staring silently for a long while.
After a bit, Damon Harper still didn’t take the bait, and Carolina’s smile started to freeze on her face.
Just as her hand was about to give up from exhaustion and numbness, Damon slowly reached out.
But he reached out with his left hand.
Carolina didn’t overthink it and quickly switched to her left hand too.
They shook hands as if it were the most normal thing in the world.
At this point, Carolina’s smile instantly turned into a grimace. She seemed to be in extreme pain but didn’t say a word.
Then, she looked up at Damon. Seeing his unpredictable expression, Carolina showed a flash of doubt in her eyes, then tried hard to keep smiling, turned and pulled Keira to the front, and continued, “Mr. Harper, this is my granddaughter, Keira, a key figure in our Pulse Entertainment…” “I know.”
Damon Harper’s indifferent voice rang out, exciting both Carolina and Keira.
But before they could even start to celebrate, Damon continued.

“The prettiest but most useless face of Pulse Entertainment, the biggest failure of a perfumer at the Olson Group, I’ve heard all about it.” Carolina’s and Keira’s smiles froze on their faces, unable to maintain them any longer, making for an extremely awkward scene.
Even Lauretta, who stood nearby, couldn’t help but turn her head, unable to bear the awkwardness.
Chloe smirked, taking Rose, who was shaking with laughter, and they walked away.
Damon glanced at them out of the corner of his eye, made no move, and turned his attention to Lance instead.
Lance frowned slightly. As a man, the stubbornness of not admitting defeat in front of a competitor seemed to be innate.
His gaze instinctively followed Chloe’s retreating figure.
A hint of danger flashed in Damon’s eyes, and he subtly shifted his position to block Lance’s view.
Lance had no choice but to pull his gaze back to Damon.
“Hello, Mr. Harper, I’m Lance Olson from the Olson Group.”
Lance extended his hand to Damon, but Damon Harper didn’t move, instead, he said, “I heard you’re marrying this woman?”
Lance also looked awkward, pulling back his sore hand and nodded.
“Yes…”
Only then did Damon give a slight smile and nod, “Congratulations.”
They didn’t see that one coming.
Before they could even recover from the surprise, Damon had already turned around and left.
He dressed in luxurious clothes, radiated an aura of nobility and authority and an indescribable charm that was so alluring.
Keira watched him as he walked away, growing uneasy.
She was furious when she thought about the unreachable man who had once spent a billion to help Chloe out of trouble.
She didn’t understand why he did it.
Just as she was thinking about this, there was a sudden commotion at the door. Everyone looked up and saw Zoey protecting someone who was walking in.
