Damien smiled lightly, pulling her into his arms and kissing her passionately. “I’ve always been cunning.”

Cherise seized the lifeline. “Phone!”

“Answer it!”

Damien frowned, seeing the call was from Yolanda.

Damien’s brows furrowed deeply at seeing Yolanda’s name on the screen.

He promptly hit the hang–up button and resumed kissing Cherise, “It’s an unimportant call. There’s no need to answer.”
