Chapter 383 Anger and a Bitter Goodbye\u00a0<\/p>\n
He leaned in slowly, a playful glint in his eyes, intent on teasing her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Scarlett retreated step by step, her gaze wary and defensive.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Finished\u00a0<\/p>\n
Just as he was about to close the final distance, Damian suddenly went still. He tilted his head, listening intently for a moment. \u201cDo you hear that?\u201d he asked.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Scarlett watched him suspiciously, a frown creasing her brow. \u201cHear what?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Damian gestured toward the shared wall with the neighboring room. \u201cListen.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
His serious demeanor piqued her curiosity. Mimicking him, Scarlett focused her hearing.\u00a0<\/p>\n
When the faint, unmistakable sounds from next door reached her, a deep blush instantly spread across Scarlett\u2019s face. She glared at him indignantly. \u201cYou\u2026 you are absolutely shameless.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
A faint smirk touched Damian\u2019s lips. Suddenly, he grabbed her hand and pressed it firmly against his own chest. He looked at her with a rogue\u2019s grin. \u201cIf you were willing, we could let others hear our sounds, too.\u201d .\u00a0<\/p>\n
Hearing him circle back to this yet again, Scarlett adopted a serious tone. \u201cIf you think that\u2019s an option, then go ahead.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
For a fleeting second, delight surged in Damian\u2019s eyes. \u201cReally?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
But it was immediately replaced by stark disappointment. He straightened up, a flush of anger coloring his features. \u201cYou\u2026\u201d he began, clearly furious, but the words seemed to lodge in his throat.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He stood, turning his back to her, then spun around again, unable to contain his frustration. \u201cYou\u2019re taking advantage of the fact that I like you, that I care about you\u2013that I wouldn\u2019t dare force anything. You keep recklessly twisting the knife, Scarlett. If you keep this up, do you really think I\u2019ll always be this patient with you?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Scarlett let out a bitter, quiet laugh. She had meant to say he didn\u2019t need to be patient with her\u00a0<\/p>\n
at all.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But before she could speak, Damian smacked his own forehead in exasperation. \u201cI\u2019m an idiot. Even if you stab my heart full of holes, I will still come crawling back to treat you well.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
His words left Scarlett momentarily speechless.\u00a0<\/p>\n
What woman could remain entirely unmoved by such a declaration?\u00a0<\/p>\n

:\u00a0<\/p>\n
57\u00a0<\/p>\n
Finished\u00a0<\/p>\n
If she didn\u2019t know his real reason for getting close to her, Scarlett thought she might have fallen for his charm long ago.\u00a0<\/p>\n
After a heavy pause, she lowered her voice. \u201cYou should go. I need to rest.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The moment the words left her mouth, Damian glared at her, his eyes rimmed with red, filled with resentment and hurt.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He glared for a long moment, but it didn\u2019t seem to soothe his anger. He stepped forward, cupped the back of her head, and pulled her tightly against his chest.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He didn\u2019t kiss her lips. Instead, he bent his head and bit down\u2013not too hard, but firmly\u2013on her earlobe.\u00a0<\/p>\n
A sharp gasp of pain escaped Scarlett.\u00a0<\/p>\n
When he released her, he said, his voice thick with frustration, \u201cConsider that what you owe\u00a0<\/p>\n
me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
With that, he turned and strode out of the bedroom.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Behind him, Scarlett clutched her stinging ear, her brow furrowed in a mix of pain and confusion.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She watched his retreating back, her emotions in turmoil.\u00a0<\/p>\n
If the person he truly loved was Sabrina, then why did he act this way with her?\u00a0<\/p>\n
Scarlett couldn\u2019t make sense of it, and in that moment, she found this side of Damian utterly infuriating.\u00a0<\/p>\n
*****\u00a0<\/p>\n
Damian left Theron Manor openly, through the front door this time.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The household staff who saw him pass through the foyer exchanged surprised glances. There had been no announced guests\u2013who was this man leaving from inside the house?\u00a0<\/p>\n
By the time Damian returned to the hospital, Ruth had already taken a short nap and was just waking up.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The door to the private room opened, and he walked in, the air around him practically crackling with suppressed anger.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ruth noticed immediately. \u201cWell, look who\u2019s back,\u201d she said, her voice laced with curiosity. \u201cWhat happened?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Finished\u00a0<\/p>\n
Damian slumped into the visitor\u2019s chair, rubbing his temples. \u201cShe keeps pushing me away,\u201d he muttered.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Hearing this, Ruth couldn\u2019t help a soft chuckle. \u201cIs that so? There\u2019s actually someone who can resist you?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Damian let out a long, weary sigh. \u201cOut of all the women in the world, she\u2019s the most stubborn, the most ungrateful.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ruth smiled, a knowing look in her eyes. \u201cWhat\u2019s the rush? These things take time.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
But the more Damian thought about it, the angrier he got. \u201cPlenty of women would be thrilled to get my attention,\u201d he fumed. \u201cIf she pushes me too far, maybe I should just walk away. Live it up, have some real fun for a change.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ruth raised an eyebrow, giving him a skeptical look. \u201cI\u2019ll believe it when I see it.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m serious,\u201d Damian snapped, though it lacked conviction.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ruth could see he was mostly venting. She decided to call his bluff. \u201cAlright then, if you\u2019re so brave, go on. Go find another woman.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cFine! I will!\u201d Damian declared, rising to his feet. \u201cSince when was that a challenge?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
He stormed out of the room. Ruth didn\u2019t try to stop him, just shook her head with a faint smile.\u00a0<\/p>\n
However, barely five minutes had passed before the door opened again. Damian slunk back in dejectedly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Seeing him return, Ruth couldn\u2019t hide her amusement. \u201cWhat\u2019s the matter?\u201d she asked, her tone light. \u201cThat was quick. Change your\u00a0<\/p>\n
mind?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
