Looks like there’s no leaving this private room tonight. Harvey sat on the sofa, doing his best to keep his

composure.

“So, Mr. Blackburn, what kind of partnership did you want to discuss with our company?” Harvey asked.

Darion glanced at him and said, “Tonight’s just a welcome for you, Harvey. Let’s not talk business. This one’s for you.”

With that, he downed his drink in one go.

In Oakwood, Blackburn Group ruled the scene, and nobody would risk offending Darion Blackburn.

Harvey could only raise his glass and drink.

After finishing his drink, Harvey asked, “Any idea when Matthew Evans will be back?”

Darion replied, “Didn’t he leave your company? Is there something urgent you need to discuss with him? Just let me know, and I’ll help you get in touch and find out when he’s coming back.”

Harvey just smiled and said, “Mr. Blackburn, this is something I can only discuss with Matthew Evans. It concerns his previous responsibilities and involves our company’s confidential information, so I’m really not at liberty to share more.”

“Alright, never mind then,” Darion said, not pushing further. He picked up his glass again. “Let’s just enjoy the night and have a drink.”

Harvey had no choice but to raise his glass and drink with Darion.

After a couple more drinks, Darion set his glass down, wrapped an arm around Thalia, and started whispering in her ear, clearly in party mode.

Jason moved closer to Harvey, striking up a friendly conversation as they drank together.

Harvey kept his guard up the whole time, making sure nothing about Matthew Evans slipped out.

Thalia discreetly watched from the sidelines, feeling a growing sense of urgency. ‘At this pace, when am I ever going to get the truth out of him?’ she thought.

She turned toward Darion, leaning in so close it looked like she was about to kiss him, and murmured in a hushed tone, “Can’t we just grab him and force him to spill?”

Her warm breath tickled his ear.

Darion’s Adam’s apple shifted as he gently cupped the back of her head, his lips nearly touching hers. He pressed her into the sofa, blocking everyone else’s view with his back.

He breathed out softly, “If we spook him now, we might set off alarms. What if it brings others after you?”

Thalia’s lashes quivered, and just as she was about to speak, Darion crushed his lips against hers in a sudden, forceful kiss.

Thalia was stunned, unable to even gasp before his lips crashed onto hers, leaving her utterly defenseless.

He kissed her like a thief, ravaging her lips and mouth, tasting every soft spot until he finally pulled back, leaving a lingering, tender kiss on her lips.

Thalia’s eyes glistened with unshed tears as she glared at him.

‘Is he seriously doing this here?’ she thought.

‘Does he really think he can just do whatever he wants?’

Darion let out a low chuckle. “Did you forget your role tonight?”

Thalia just stared at him, lost for words.

Thalia shoved him away and quickly fixed her outfit, trying to regain her composure.

Harvey had already been plied with two bottles of wine by Jason, and though his mind was getting fuzzy, he still kept his guard up.

Jason turned to Darion and started winking at him frantically.

Meanwhile, Quinn was munching on sunflower seeds, just enjoying the show.
