Regret Came Too Late

Selene didn't dodge in time and was forced to lift her chin. It took her a few seconds to realize what had happened before she turned her head away.

Damien's kiss landed on her cheek, but that didn't stop him as he trailed more kisses downward, deliberately leaving several marks on her.

"Damien, that's enough," she said.

"No, it's not enough. I was already holding back when I was in that private dining room. What makes you think that you can just dump me after sleeping with me?" Selene's chin was gripped firmly, and he forcefully kissed her lips again.

Grace took several steps back, with shock written all over her face.

After Grace finally processed what she had just witnessed, she carefully closed the door to the private room, feeling as if thunder was rumbling in her mind.

It took her a while to recover from shock before returning to the private room she was in.

Ethan and Vincent were sitting across from each other at the table. Neither of them was speaking, but the silence didn't feel awkward.

As she returned and sat down, Ethan asked, "Did you find them?"

Grace shot Vincent a quick glance before shaking her head frantically. "No, the restaurant is too big, and I didn't know which way they went."

Ethan let out a short chuckle and said nothing else.

Afraid that Vincent would ask her the same question, she quickly lowered her head and ate her oatmeal, avoiding eye contact. However, Vincent seemed very calm and instead started discussing a famous foreign novel with Ethan.
