Chapter 429
Maybe David had felt this way since the first the laid eyes on Celina, but it had never been as there
it was.
He closed the distance between them, step by deliberate step
David was built like a linebacker among his peers, but Celina towered in her own right. Side by side, he did not
even have a height advantage. However, that did not bother him. With a casual move, he cornered Celina
against the corridor wall, shooting a meaningful look toward the room. "Stay away from Evangeline, the woman
inside," he said
Celina had kept quiet to avoid a scene, but once she got what David was there for, she could not help but let out
a scoff.
"So, are you going to let go ofnow?"
"You got my message?" David's grip eased up, though he did not pull away.
"Crystal clear." Seizing the moment, Celina shoved his arms aside. Once she was sure they were at a safe
distance, a sly smirk played on her lips
"Mr. Zimmer, you used to haunt my beauty salon like a bad penny, but your game's changed this time, you're

"Listen up, | may have been under your thumb once, but that doesn't mean I'm one of your Gordon Group

He knew Celina was a knockout with brains to boot, but who knew she had the spice of a chili pepper, too?
Why had he not seen that side of her before?
"I'm actually curious, how exactly will you not be so nice to me?"
Out of nowhere, a glint of metal caught David's eye.
Celina whipped out a silver needle with the flair of a magician, and with a delicate touch to her fingertip. she
handled it like i was the crown jewels.
"Mr. Zimmer, you must've forgotten, but I'm in the business of cosmetic medicine. People in my line of work,
unlike regular doctors, need to be experts not just in the big stuff but also in sculpting their clients’ features to
perfection."
With a knowing smile, Celina took David's hand in hers and placed the silver needle in his palm.

"As for Evangeline Gordon, the high-flying Mrs. Gordon of the Gordon clan and the daring princess of the Fosters,
I'm a businessman through and through. Why would I turn away a golden opportunity to cash in? If you don't
want her swinging by, you better cup with a plan yourself.
"Tfor Ms. Evangeline's beauty mask. Got to run!"
Celina breezed by David, making a swift exit.
Brushing shoulders with her, David

A smirk flickered across David's lips before he smacked his forehead in realization.
