A looked of anger crossed Mr. Davis's face and within a split second, he forgot who presence he was in.

“What!” Mr. Davis shouted before getting a grip on his tongue.

Pulling his brows into a frown, Rome gave him an icy stare without uttering a word.

The was a long paused. Then Mr. Davis suppressed his anger and mumbled, “Of course. Anything you say, I will not object. You can keep the photos until you feel ready to give them to me.”

After taking a moment to fight his urge to tighten his fist, he pitifully gazed at Rome, bent his back lower, resting his palms against his kneecaps, and pleaded, “I beg you not to send them to my wife. It will ruin my family and my image. I will do anything you say!”

“Good, because I still have use for you,” Rome mumbled, dropping his phone on the couch.

Even though he felt hesitant to ask, Mr. Davis swallowed hard and mumbled, “What is it?”

“I'm not going to say what it is now. But I will inform you when I have a use for you.”

After keeping silent for a while, Mr. Davis nodded and said, “Okay. I will await your command.”

Then he stood up straight. But when he turned around to leave, Rome said, “One word to the Barlows about my identity, and these photos will make headlines along with the news about the sudden decline in your company process. Clear?”

“Crystal,” Mr. Davis said before walking out of the room.

It became silent for a while. Then Mr. Ford cleared his throat and said, “That went well.”

“Yeah,” Rome mumbled, staring away from the door.

Then he gazed at his father as Mr. Ford opened a bottle of wine and pulled some in two separate glasses.

Afterward, he handed Rome one of the glasses, and the moment his son took a sip of the wine, Mr. Ford slyly smiled and asked, “Did I tell you that one of my friends is having a cruise party?”

Frowning, Rome set the glass down and said, “No, you did not.”
