Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me

"I don't feel tired at the moment.If possible, I'd appreciate it if you could reveal the truth about the situation right away.Once we're done talking, we can go our separate ways."

Noticing her growing frustration, the man couldn't help but chuckle.

"Alright, no need to be angry.What would you like to know? Feel free to ask me anything."

It was only then that she managed to temper her anger slightly.

"I want to know, what is your relationship with Hank?" she inquired.

Yelena believed that the man standing before her must have a significant connection with Hank.

Otherwise, he wouldn't possess such an air of knowing so much.

The man nodded, acknowledging that her question was indeed a crucial point.

"Well then, allow me to introduce myself first.I am Slevin Damazio."

Slevin Damazio...Damazio...So, this is how it is.

"What exactly is your relationship with him?" she asked.

Slevin stroked his chin, a mysterious smile playing on his lips.

"If I told you that I'm his half-brother from another mother, would you believe me?"

Yelena's brow immediately furrowed.

Much to her knowledge, there had never been any divorces in the Damazio Family.

Could this man be an illegitimate child of the family? The secret she had just learned left her utterly astonished.

Observing her reaction, he nodded approvingly.

"That's right, just as you suspected.I am the illegitimate child of the Damazio Family, and Hank is completely unaware of my existence."

Despite everything, Yelena's loyalty still leaned toward Hank.

With this revelation, she grew instantly wary and fixed her gaze upon him.

"What are your intentions? Are you planning to compete with him for the family inheritance?" Slevin clicked his tongue disapprovingly.

"Compete for the inheritance? I couldn't care less about that petty wealth.Besides, there's no need for you to be so cautious.I have absolutely no intention of harming him.If I wanted to make a move, I would have done so already."

With a sigh of relief, she inquired, "How did you come to know about this?"

He sneered in response.
