Chapter 149: Why Don’t You Listen To Me?
“Is Scarlett up yet?” Eve asked.
Eve rubbed her sore hip, “She is still sleeping!”
“I’d better go and check on her. It’s time to get up for breakfast!” Francis stood up.
After Francis left politely, Eve and Damon were left alone in the living room. It was awkward, to say the very least.
Eve was about to leave, but Damon stopped her,
“Where are you going?” Damon said.NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
“I want to have breakfast!” She calmly looked up her hands behind her back.
Damon leaned on the sofa, his legs crossed, and gold-rimmed glasses were sitting on his nose. “Come over and have a seat. I have something I want to talk to you about.”
Eve brushed her hair and sat down on the sofa as far away as she could. She asked, “What do you want to talk about?”
“Why didn’t you go back home last night?” He stared at her.
Because of nervousness, she licked her lips and said, “Well, it’s boring to stay at home alone, so I decided to come here. What’s the big deal?”
“Did you know that I was waiting for you there?” He asked.
“Your place or my place? If you meant your place, of course, I didn’t know. But if you meant my place, how did you get in there without my permission? You have no right to break into my house. That’s breaking and entering. I can get a restraining order against you, you know?”
Damon smiled wryly, “Do you need me to remind you, Eve? You still owe me a million dollars. I haven’t forgotten your debt to me.”
“Why the hell did you mention that?” She took a deep breath.
“You are the one blaming me for only caring about money, aren’t you? So I’m doing exactly what you said.” He said.
“You are ridiculous! You can’t break into my house just because I owe you money, okay?”
“The place you live in right now is worth about five million. How about mortgaging it to me? Think about it!” Upon hearing that, Eve was pissed off and then snatched the cigarette from Damon and took a deep drag, and said, “You care about nothing but money! How cruel you are!”
She was outraged to hear that and couldn’t help cursing him. He was a bastard.

“You are so forgetful! I have turned my back on my family for you. Don’t you remember that?” He asked.
“No one forced you to do that, okay?” She bit her lips.
“Yeah, no one did that. I did it completely willingly.” He sneered.
Eve just turned her head away to avoid his eyes, and then she kept taking one puff after another. And then Damon frowned, “Haven’t I told you to be smokeless? Why don’t you listen to me?”
Eve glared at him and said angrily, “Did you quit smoking? It’s your fault, and you’re the one who’s always smoking in front of me, okay?”
Damon laughed and then looked at her with his sharp eyes, “Why do you always talk to me like I have pissed you off?”
Eve used her fingers to shake off the ash and said, “That’s how we get along all the time, don’t you remember that?”
Damon suddenly stood up, and Eve just threw herself back immediately and said, “What do you want to do?”
He took off his suit and then picked her up with one hand and carried her on his shoulder. Eve screamed out in fear.
Right then, out of nowhere, Shirley appeared, and Damon asked, “Is there an empty guestroom?”
“The third room on the left upstairs,” Shirley answered calmly. After that, she showed them the way.
“Put me down, Damon!” Eve yelled out. Eve couldn’t think with her head upside down; all the blood was rushing to her head.
Damon went upstairs carrying her on his shoulder easily and said, “I’m gonna show you how we get along!”
After Shirley helped them push open the door, she just retreated quietly.
Damon tossed Eve onto the bed. Since Eve hadn’t had breakfast yet, she suddenly felt very dizzy.
Before Eve reacted, her coat had been taken off, and Damon lifted up the inside of her dress and bound her hands. And then he slid her pants off and threw them aside.
“Stop it! We got divorced a long time ago!” Eve yelled out desperately when she realized what he was going to do to her. After taking off his own clothes, he had Eve pinned down under him. Eve was trembling.
“Are you so afraid of me? You’ve been doing well since you divorced me, right?” He sneered, his fingers slowly wrapping around her slender neck.
Eve started sweating profusely.
“How many men have you slept with?” He said as he used his index finger to pry her lips open.
Having been pressed long by Damon, Eve was almost out of breath. She felt as if she had been transported back to those days when she couldn’t fight Damon.
“Let me go! You are forcing me! I don’t want to!” She glared at him angrily.
“You can sue me!” He answered as he unbuttoned her bra with one hand.
“What the f**k? Go to hell, you son of a bitch!” She cursed angrily.
Ignoring her resistance, Damon kissed her lips, neck, and shoulders hungrily.
Eve felt overwhelmed. “Damon, please stop it! We can’t go on like this.” Deep in Eve’s heart, she still loved Damon, but she knew very well that they should not be together. If they didn’t break up completely, they would become like shackles on each other and would never be happy.
“Eve, you should have known the day you married me that you couldn’t get rid of me all your life!” He said in a low voice as he ravaged her.
Having been completely controlled, she couldn’t move, so she begged, “Aren’t we divorced? We should not continue like this!”
However, Damon became more outraged, staring at her angrily. Eve sensed his anger and felt very nervous and scared.
“How dare you bring that up? You have no right to say that!” He vented out as he bit down on her flesh.
Eve started to cry. Then she asked in a soft voice, “You knew about everything? All along?”
“Yes, I did. You are so cold-hearted. How can you trick your husband into sleeping with other women? And I was so stupid to believe that I would cheat on you and then get divorced.” He said sadly.
