Chapter 37 A Bold Gamble Damara knew that Charlotte was deliberately taunting her. She had no intention of responding and sat down at her desk. Charlotte felt resentful.

If they submitted and Abner still chose Damara, the humiliation would be a hundred times worse than it was now, and perhaps they wouldn’t be able to continue in the industry. This was a bold gamble.
