Donald Davis phoned around six o’clock in the evening, but I didn’t pick up the phone when he called.
I arrived to the party that was being hosted by Donald Davis rather late, and I didn’t get there until seven o’clock in the evening.
It is located inside the hotel. It is a venue for banquets.
When I was walking into the banquet hall, I caught a glimpse of Donald Davis and a few other people lifting their glasses.
Inside may be found more than a dozen persons at this time. The setting is nothing special.
How is it possible for someone who is not involved in the city to bring influential people there?
I am not very knowledgeable about famous people. That shouldn’t come as a surprise to me since I don’t know anybody else save Donald Davis.
Conversely, does Sean Matthews remember giving Donald Davis a present in the past, which involves these other people?
“Why do you stand here and don’t come in?”
Donald Davis presented himself in a well-groomed and put-together manner.
He poured me a glass of wine and gave it to me. After seeing that I did not respond, he said “This is 100% juice extracted from fruits. There is no alcohol.”
“This is the last time. ”
As I saw Donald Davis coming closer, my muscles tightened up.
Donald Davis gave a pitiful grin and said, “Find a spot to seat down.”
I walked inside.
I found a seat in the secluded nook of the lounge.
Donald Davis smiled warmly at his companion, strolled up, and took a seat in the chair that was directly across from me.
“Do you feel resentment against your father because of your upbringing, Donna? If that is the case, I really hope that I can make up for it.” In many situations, trying to patch things up is not only of little consequence but will also end up being counterproductive.
“Is everything okay? I’m leaving.” I said.
Donald Davis remained silent and continued to sip from the glass in front of him.
As I watched him drink, the anxiety that had been building inside of me started to surface.
When I was a kid, Donald Davis would strike me, and I think it was largely because he was drunk.
Unconsciously, I pull the cuffs and corners of the shirt closer together.
“I’m leaving!”
I had been there for a very long time, waiting for him to speak, when I finally got up and went.
“Donna, hold on just a second…” Donald Davis said as he moved in close proximity to seize my hand.
I was so startled that the color left my face, and I found myself shrinking within myself.
Someone brushed up against my back, and then they put their arm over my shoulder.
Then, from below, a whispered, “I’m sorry, I’m late.”
I gave a little shrug, turned around, and stared Sean Matthews in the face as he stood in front of me.
Why does he even bother to be here?
Did Donald Davis invite him?
Is it possible for him to invite Sean Matthews?
If that’s the case, there can be only one plausible reason. I was being followed by Sean Matthews!
When I think of this, and I don’t know why, because I have a fear of Donald Davis, my stress can’t help but be relieved.
“You weren’t happy with the last present, were you?”
Sean Matthews’ eyes were dark and distant as he watched Donald Davis, and his whole body exuded an icy chill.
Donald Davis was afraid of the big gift he was forced to accept and subconsciously respectfully said, “Mr. Matthews misunderstood. I just wanted to see my daughter. Just today, there was a misunderstanding over something.”
Donna Davis’s Pov
I watched him with a stony expression.
“Have I agreed?” – this is not a threat.
Sean Matthews has an iciness that is palpable.
“She’s mine now.”
Donald Davis was at a loss for words and put his spectacles away while saying, “sorry…”
“I just heard that you made an investment in a city; could you tell me more about it? You have the option to remove it within the first twenty-four hours; otherwise, you will be responsible for the consequences.” After finishing, Sean Matthews gave me a hug and then walked away.
Everybody who lives in a city is familiar with Sean Matthews.
Donald Davis, who had been embarrassed, was fuming with rage, and the hand that was holding the glass shook with an abnormal amount of power.
This Sean Matthews, he’s reached such great heights!
He gets in the car and drives away.
I braved the suffocating stillness in the car by taking a seat beside the entrance. “What brings you to this place?”
“Coincidence.”
I watched him with apprehension in my eyes. What are the odds of something happening by chance? You thought I was an idiot, did you?
“Even without a tracker, it’s easy to know your whereabouts.”
Sean Matthews said.
“You have ownership over the whole city, yes. It’s difficult to know where I am…” I responded in the negative. “But there is one item that has piqued my interest. What present did you bring to Donald Davis?”
“Would you want to know?”
“Forget it.”
I shifted my focus to the window behind me and turned. He is not someone who might make me feel intimidated.
As soon as the muscles in my jaw began to contract, I had no choice but to look into Sean Matthews’s very dark eyes.
I was suddenly hit in the face with a hot breath and a deep, raspy voice. “You are free to say anything, but could you perhaps explain your purpose in this room? Don’t try to convince me that you want to acknowledge this father.”
I said without altering the expression on my face, “No, obviously not. I have no business dealings with him at all. Simply put, I want to make it very plain to him that I am in no way connected to him. Don’t call again.”
