Episode 2

"What do you want?" Celine asked irritably.

"You're looking for the wrong opponent, little girl," Damian stared at Celine sharply.

Celine smiled wryly. "You're the one who's wrong, Uncle. Or, don't tell me you're interested in me?"

"Interested in you? Dream on."

Ding!

The sound of the elevator echoed. However, neither Damian nor Celine stepped out. They continued to exchange sharp glares.

"If you're not interested in me, then why did you choose to follow me instead of taking your lover home? Oh come on, I'm not a naive girl that you can deceive."

"If you can't keep quiet, I will make you regret speaking."

Ding!

The elevator rang again, and this time Damian stepped out while holding Celine's hand.

"Hey, let go of my hand."

Celine struggled. However, Damian still held onto the girl's hand. As Damian was about to swipe his key card, Celine bit Damian's hand.

"Oh\, ****."

Celine immediately walked towards the elevator and pressed the button angrily. She stood there, ignoring Damian. Damian approached Celine again. He wouldn't let go of the girl who dared to defy him.

When the elevator doors opened, Damian attempted to pull Celine's hand. However, with her frustration, the girl kicked Damian's stomach. Damian almost stumbled. The elevator doors closed, and Damian cursed in annoyance.

Celine pressed the button for her floor, as well as several other floor numbers to confuse Damian. Celine abandoned her plan to stay at that hotel, as she had a bad feeling about it.

Celine returned the unused key card and immediately walked out to find a taxi to leave the hotel.

"Damn, I wanted a vacation, but instead I ran into that annoying uncle."

Meanwhile, Damian was furious. He had never been treated like this by any woman before. Damian quickly took out his phone and called Chester, his assistant.

"Chest, after dropping off Zenya, find out about that girl."

("Yes, sir.")

"I want you to catch her for me tomorrow. How dare she cause trouble in front of me."

("Yes, sir.")

Damian entered his room and smirked. He wouldn't let go of that girl, even if he had to chase her to the ends of the earth. No one had ever dared to offend him, and this girl was the first.

"I will definitely catch you, little girl," Damian said.

Damian entered the bathroom immediately. He stood in front of the sink mirror, examining his face, wanting to make sure if he appeared older.

Celine arrived at the apartment provided by her father. All the paperwork was under the name Stuart, so it was certain that no one would be able to find Celine as long as she was inside the apartment.

Celine lay down on the bed, feeling incredibly exhausted, especially as it started to rain heavily outside. She momentarily remembered her mother. She took out her phone from her coat pocket and searched for her mother's number.

After a few rings, her call was finally answered by her mother.

"What's wrong, you mischievous child?"

"I just arrived, Mom. I'll be home soon," Celine said. Although she spoke those words, her expression seemed despondent. The incident she just experienced weighed heavily on her heart, especially since she felt guilty towards her mother.

"Mom, I'm sorry."

"Don't worry about it, Mommy just wants you to take care of yourself. Don't get sick, because there won't be anyone to make porridge for you."

"Yes, mom. I'm going to sleep now. Send my regards to daddy. I love you."

Celine ended the call and turned off her phone. She got up to remove her coat. Celine quickly did a brief room tour in her apartment.

Celine smiled as she opened the refrigerator. Her father really paid attention to her in such detail.

Celine had actually wanted to study there, but the incident with Damian had deterred her, and she would look for a university in another city in the country.

Celine hoped to never have any dealings with Damian again. She knew Damian was not an ordinary person. She didn't want that man to appear again and disturb her life.

But who would know? What would happen next?

The next day, Damian slammed the glass in his hand. Chester had just reported that he couldn't find any trace of Celine.

"Is it so difficult to find a girl?"

"We only know her name is Josceline Alexander. There is no other information."

"What do you think?"

"She is not an ordinary girl, sir," Chester answered.

"So, you think so?"

"Yes, sir."

"What about Zenya?"

"Yesterday, Miss Zenya was angry and I think she contacted your mother."

"Let it be. I am immune to my mother's nagging. The most important thing to remember is that you must get that girl no matter what."

Chester could only obey his boss's command, although he felt something strange about him. It was only because of a trivial matter that he was targeting the girl.

Chester didn't know that the trivial matter had hurt his boss's pride. Damian had always been admired by many women. However, it was only that girl who didn't pay attention to him.

Damian Roberto, a 30-year-old man. He owned a shipping business and had about 50 cruise ships. Besides his business, Damian was also a mafia, providing illegal firearms.

Damian had a girlfriend named Zenya. But it didn't mean he loved her, Damian had to date Zenya so that his mother would stop trying to find him a partner.

Damian wasn't incapable of finding a partner, he just didn't want to deal with women. However, yesterday there was a girl who made Damian feel his self-esteem was disturbed, and that girl was Celine.

Currently, Damian was on his ship. He had a meeting with his underworld business partner.

On the ship, many of Damian's subordinates were on guard because their Boss was about to make a big transaction.

"Sir. Mr. Yamamoto has arrived."

"Take him to the usual room and prepare the drink I ordered yesterday."

Damian went straight to the special room for the transaction. His Japanese associate bowed to Damian respectfully. Damian responded with a gesture that looked very smooth.

"How are you, Mr. Yamamoto."

"Always extraordinary, Mr. Damian. Are the weapons ready?"

"Of course, I always keep my word." Damian signaled Chester to fetch his items. Yamamoto's assistant also prepared the money they brought in the suitcase.

The ordered items were placed on the table. Damian uncovered them and showed them to Mr. Yamamoto. The man of Japanese descent seemed satisfied with the goods.

The transaction went smoothly so far, until suddenly...

"Sir, our ship is being attacked!" one of Damian's subordinates exclaimed. Damian cursed. He stared sharply at his business partner.

"I would never betray you, Mr. Damian."

"Take the items and give him the money. My men will escort you safely," Damian said.

Chester took over the task of securing Mr. Yamamoto. Meanwhile, Damian prepared himself by pulling out two pistols from his coat.

Damian walked out of his room. He wanted to know who this time wanted to interfere with him.

Before he could see where his enemies were, Damian suddenly got shot. The man cursed even more as a bullet grazed his shoulder.

"Oh, I will eliminate anyone who dares to disturb me."

Unavoidably, a shootout occurred. However, it wasn't a problem for Damian. In an instant, all the enemies were eliminated.

"Did you get them?"

"Yes, sir. Two unconscious individuals have been taken to the headquarters by Matius."

"Good. Torture them until they confess."

Damian left the ship's area, as his subordinates would clean up. Usually, they would throw the bodies of their enemies into the middle of the sea.

Don't blame him for being ruthless, because Damian's principle was to kill anyone who dared to disturb his organization.

"You have another visitor, Dam?" A handsome man stood in front of Damian's car.

"Hmm, what brings you here?"

"I have obtained what Chester wanted. You're not interested in a girl, are you?"

"Keep your mouth shut, Mateo, or you'll end up like them. Now, quickly tell me where the girl is."

"Wow, you're really impatient."

Mateo immediately showed a recording of a girl who was indeed being sought by Damian. A faint smile appeared on the man's lips. Mateo shivered at the sight of his cousin's rarely seen smile.
