Chapter 808 Open Up.
The next morning.
Damien knew that he had done something wrong, because Joyce ignored him and did not speak to him after she came out of the bathroom last night.
Damien went downstairs. From a distance, he could hear the laughter of Joyce and his mother. He did not know what they were talking about. But Joyce made the old lady laugh.
Joyce had a sweet mouth and a good-natured personality. She was indeed the kind of daughter-in-law that elders liked.
At this moment, Mrs. Robert noticed him. “Damien, are you up?” she greeted.
Damien’s eyes fell on Joyce. Joyce also saw him. But Joyce quickly looked away.
“Mum, I’ll go to the kitchen to se
and left.
if breakfast is ready,” she quickly stood up, then she turned around
She was still angry, angry that he did not keep to the contract.
Damien frowned slightly, then walked down, “Mom, good morning.”
Mrs. Robert moved over and whispered, “Damien, did you make Joyce angry?”
“No,” he replied.
“I don’t care. It must be your fault. Joyce is such a sweet girl. Hurry up and resolve this! Else you won’t be my son anymore! Fix this!” After speaking, Mrs. Robert also followed into the kitchen.
Damien stood speechlessly. He couldn’t believe that his mother threatened to disown him because of Joyce.
Was he really her biological son?
Damien felt that he was not welcome at home, so he went to the company and returned at night. However, he did not see his mum or Joyce in the living room. He did not know where they had gone. Damien inquired from the maid, “What about mum and Joyce?”
The maid replied respectfully, “Sir, they’re both home. They are currently playing a chess game upstairs.”
“They’re playing chess?
“Yes sir. Today, your mother invited some friends over.”
Mrs. Robert liked to play chess, but she was not lucky. She had never won before.
Her friends liked to play with her. And they also liked to gossip. Because Damien’s marriage had not been going well for so many years, and there was no woman around him. This made Mrs. Robert at laughing stock, and they often made fun of her.
“Got it.” Damien responded, and went upstairs,
As he walked past the door of the chess and card room, he suddenly heard laughter from inside. It was not surprising. Every time he passed by the door of the chess and card room, he could hear the laughter of the old ladies.
However, this time, it was not only the laughter of the older ladies that could be be heard, but also the laughter of Mrs. Robert.

Mrs. Robert laughed cheerfully, she was really happy.
Damien paused and looked inside. He saw that the four of them had gathered together at a card table. Mrs. Robert and one other lady were playing card game. And Joyce and the other lady watched them.
“What game am I holding?” Mrs. Robert asked her opponent.
“Queen.” The lady replied.
Mrs. Robert calmly turned her cards, “No, dear, it’s Jack! You’re welcome, all your money is mine.”
The two old ladies were unhappy. “Mrs. Robert, I think you won today because of your daughter-inlaw. This isn’t fair.”
“Ma’am,” Joyce quickly said, she blinked harmlessly, and even raised her hand to prove her innocence, “I didn’t help mum out, she’s just so good.”
Joyce turned and winked playfully at Mrs. Robert.
“What are you two old ladies doing? Don’t scare my daughter-in-law. I used to lose to you. You just lost once and you’re not convinced?” Mrs. Robert chipped in.
“So, now you have a daughter-in-law, and your tone has changed!” One of the ladies swiftly said.
thought your son was going to be a reverend father for the rest of his life, but we didn’t expect him to bring home such a beautiful daughter in law!”
As she was being praised by her friends, Mrs. Robert was excited. Over the years, she had suffered a lot in front of these old ladies. She was glad that at least, she wasn’t the subject of mockery
anymore.
At this moment, one of the ladies saw Damien by the door and immediately joked, “Isn’t that Damien? Damien, when are you and Joyce getting married? We’re all waiting to see you two marry. When’s the wedding happening?”
Damien stood still. His eyes fell on Joyce. She entered the midst of old ladies and won everyone’s love.
At this moment, Joyce’s beautiful eyes also fell on his handsome face, and she called out to him at little shyly and sweetly, “Damien, are you back?”
Damien stared at her bright eyebrows, and she seemed different from the person who was mad at him earlier.
Damien raised his legs and walked in. He came to her side. He put one hand in his trousers pocket and lowered his body.
“Yes, I know a little.” Joyce swiftly smiled, as she referred to the games.
Damien nodded and did not leave. Instead, he sat beside her, wanting to watch her play the chess
game.
Joyce did not understand why he sat beside her.
She was still angry and didn’t want to ignore him.
Last night, Damien made her really upset. And now, he went on to sit close to her. He did it on purpose, knowing that so many people were there, and she could only be polite to him.
Joyce picked up a fruit from the fruit basket, and gave it to him.
“Aren’t today’s grapes sweet?” Damien asked, as he took a bite.
Joyce was so smart. She immediately accepted his suggestion. She scolded him in her heart, and
