Chapter 22 It’s Easy to Get Drunk When You Drink Like This

• “That’s enough!” Damian shot a glance at Lara’s red and swollen face before shaking off Olivia’s hand with a slight frown. “Did you come back just to let me watch how you teach people a lesson?” he said with a hint of anger in his voice. Then, he turned to look at Lara. “You get out first.”
• Lara pressed her lips together. For the first time in her life, she felt she was such a disgrace. She was but a mistress who came between Damian and his wife—a f*ck buddy who must be kept from the public and couldn’t even be regarded as his lover! And besides, she felt so humble and ashamed in front of Olivia. Her eyes were swollen with tears; even the air in this room suffocated her. As she dashed out of the room with her head down, she heard Olivia saying coquettishly to Damian, “Why pull a long face when I came back? Isn’t it great that we’re back together as a family?”
• Upon hearing Olivia’s words, Lara felt like her heart had been jabbed with a needle. A family? Yeah, they’re a family, she thought. She almost took to her heels as she dared not listen to what the couple behind her would say next.
