Before Damian was about to leave home, he found out that Rain was still sound asleep.
In jest, he playfully pinched her nose and teased her, "You lazy bum, I'm heading out. I've prepared breakfast for you, and you can heat it up once you wake up."
Rain simply closed her eyes, grunted, turned over, and continued to sleep.
Damian affectionately tousled her hair, gathered his belongings, and left.
Little did he realize he was being a simp at that moment...
Upon arriving at the team, Damian was taken aback to find Blake present and on duty, joined by the rest of the team, all wearing strange expressions as they looked at him.
Blake asked, "Damian, did something happen last night?"
Puzzled, Damian responded, "Everything's fine!"
Colton remarked nonchalantly, "Were you feeling happy at home?"
Damian flashed his bright white teeth and replied with a smile, "Absolutely. My girlfriend came to pick me up and intended to cook for me, but she was clumsy, so I ended up doing it myself."
Blake and Colton exchanged bewildered glances.
Blake retrieved his phone and spoke coldly, "See for yourself."
Curious, Damian cautiously took the phone, wondering what could be so mysterious.
Colton also handed over his mobile phone, urging, "Take a close look."
It was the first time Blake and Colton had encountered such a situation. When they arrived early in the morning, they intended to have a private conversation with Damian, but coincidentally discovered that they both had received a message from Damian's girlfriend!
The two of them were utterly flabbergasted.
Damian examined the phone, and his smile gradually faded.
He glanced at Blake's phone and then at Colton's, muttering reluctantly, "Maybe the account used the same username and profile picture as her's."
Blake explained, "The account number is in the screenshot."
Damian slumped into the chair, utterly disbelieving.
"No... Rain is not like that at all. She would get shy and tell me not to tease her when she's joking around."
"She's always thoughtful and considerate... If I come home late, she would get up and make instant noodles for me..."
Blake and Colton were speechless.
Blake patted him on the shoulder and said, "Some things can be confirmed with a few clicks. That's all for now."
Interfering with their subordinates' personal affairs was not an easy task for a leader.
After giving Damian a reminder, Blake headed to the meeting, and Colton left as well, leaving Damian sitting there in despair and anger.
He could not bring himself to believe that Rain could be that kind of person. They even made plans last night to get married when she returned home for New Year's this year.
They had even chosen a name for their future baby.
How could she do such a thing?
There must be some kind of mistake!
Damian could not accept it, so he called Rain to ask about the situation.
On the phone, Rain sounded startled, saddened, and angry. "You don't believe me? How can you believe such absurd things? Are you doubting me..."
Damian quickly tried to console her, saying, "No, I'm just confirming with you, that's all."
Disappointedly, Rain replied, "What do you need to confirm? Do you want me to be that kind of person? I don't care, I didn't do it. Whether you believe it or not is up to you."
It was a common phrase for an unfaithful man or woman to say these phrases.
"It's up to you, believe it or not."
"Do you want me to be that kind of person?"
He did not outright deny it, but Damian did not dwell on it too much. He quickly said, "That's not what I meant..."
"Click." The phone call ended abruptly.
Damian held the phone in a daze.
Yes, it was indeed absurd... He had to trust Rain and stop doubting her.
Otherwise, it would mean he does not trust her!
