Chapter 5
Hearing that, my first thought was that the text hadn’t gone through.
But thinking about it for just a second, I knew that was impossible.
Besides, even if the text had failed to send, after hearing I’d quit my job–Damon was smart enough to know what that meant.
Since everything was so obvious, why was he still shameless enough to show up at my door?
I didn’t voice my confusion.
I just stared coldly at this unwelcome visitor, using what little patience I had left:
“If you really don’t know, then I’ll tell you to your face right now. Damon, I want to break up with you.”
“Did you hear what I said? If you’re actually going deaf, I don’t mind repeating it.”
“No matter how many times you repeat it, my answer stays the same.”
He was grinding his teeth, staring at me with a cold, furious expression:
“Reyna, I don’t agree to this breakup.”
“I haven’t done anything wrong. What gives you the right to just break up with me like that?”
Hearing this, I stared at Damon in shock.
I never imagined someone could be this shameless.
While I was still stunned, Dad’s curious voice came from the kitchen:
“Rey, who are you chatting with at the front door?”
“Dad, I’m not chatting! My bubble tea delivery arrived. Oh, I just remembered I forgot to pick up a package. I’m going downstairs real quick.”
As I spoke, I pushed Damon away from the doorway without mercy.
Walking out expressionlessly, I got in the elevator and said coldly:
“Don’t bother my parents. If you have something to say, we’ll talk outside.”
Ten minutes later, we sat across from each other in a corner booth at a restaurant near home.
He spoke first: “You cut your hair.”
Seeing that I stayed silent, this usually cold and reserved man tried to flatter me for the first time:
“The new style looks great, Really suits you.”
Damon liked women with long, flowing hair.
To cater to his taste, despite hating hot weather, I’d forced myself to grow out straight black hair to my waist for seven whole years.
Yet during those seven years, he’d never once done what he’d casually promised–braid my hair in the intricate style I loved.
Just then, a server brought us menus.
Before I could speak, he’d already ordered dinner for both of us.

Chapter 5
He said: “Reyna, you’ve lost weight. Eat something first to tide you over. After we go home tomorrow, I’ll take you to a really good restaurant.”
I actually laughed: “Go home? Damon, are you forgetting that we’re just in a dating relationship? We’re not even married,”
Hearing me say that, Damon gave me this knowing smirk:
“Reyna, we’ve been together seven years. If you want to marry me, just say so directly. You think I’d say no? You really don’t need to waste both our time with this whole charade.”
I pinched my temples.
Opening my phone, I pulled up my employment contract with his rival company and placed it clearly on the table for him to see
Just as I expected, after one glance at my phone screen, his handsome face went iron gray.
Damon hated betrayal more than anything.
Whether in work or personal life.
He lived by “betray me once, you’re dead to me forever.”
I crossed my arms casually: “Mr. Reed, I know you have a strong ego. Even if you have zero feelings for me, it’s hard to accept hearing breakup come out of my mouth.”
“Since that’s the case, I’ll give you the chance to break up with me first.”
“And no matter who asks in the future, I’ll tell them you dumped me. Satisfied now?”
