Chapter 17 Don't Cry, Damian

• Gavin, engrossed in driving the car, instinctively pressed on the brake pedal, resulting in an unpleasant screeching sound emanating from beneath the Audi Ciaz. His concern for Raquel and Damian’s well-being prompted him to steal a worried glance back at them in the rear seats.
• “What are you fussing about?” Gavin inquired, his tone carrying a hint of coldness but laced with underlying concern.
• Raquel’s face beamed with happiness, and she gently patted Gavin’s shoulder, as if she had just won the lottery. “You know, I just witnessed Damian’s truly sincere smile,” she exclaimed.
