The party had just started, but the banquet hall was already buzzing.
At first, some people were a bit stiff, but they had now started to get to know each other. Elizabeth was
also chatting with a few elegant and well–mannered ladies. Men took care of the external affairs;
women managed the communication within the family.
Sometimes women played a key role in solving issues that men couldn’t. So, being a woman marrying
into a rich family wasn’t as glamorous and easy as it seemed. The fear from almost falling into the pobl
still haunted Chloe. But given the current lively atmosphere, she couldn’t leave the party early.
Damon’s sharp gaze seemed to be penetrating through Chloe.
“Let’s go,” Damon suddenly said, his tone leaving no room for negotiation.
Chloe looked a bit pale. She glanced at Elizabeth, and shook her head with a smile.
“Wait a bit, I’m going to the restroom.”
“I’ll come with you.”
Damon intended to escort her to the restroom.
“No need.”
Chloe gently pushed him away and quickly walked away on her
own.
Just by the poolside moments ago, if she hadn’t looked up and seen the two figures by the window, she
probably wouldn’t have been able to hold on any longer. Although she felt a bit better now, she still felt
chilly all over.
She grabbed a coat from a waiter and draped it over her before heading to the restroom. Watching her
back, Damon frowned slightly. He glanced up at Elizabeth and then walked over to her.
er./
Despite the lively and harmonious atmosphere, no one could ignore a dazzling person like Damon.
Seeing him heading for Elizabeth, some people had already started to gather around her.
Before Elizabeth could figure out why so many people were suddenly surrounding her, she saw her son
standing by her side.
“Why are you alone? Where’s Chloe?”
“She’s not feeling well. I’ll take her home early. Can I borrow your phone?” Damon replied calmly.
His previous phone had been shattered, and he needed to contact Nate to prepare a car so they could
leave this place for good. This place would definitely be on his blacklist from now on.
Elizabeth was a bit puzzled, but seeing her son’s serious face, she handed over her phone.
As soon as Wendy and Sierra heard that Damon was leaving, their expressions changed. Especially
Wendy, her eyes turned icy.
Seeing a few people approaching, Wendy smirked.
“Oh my!”
“Ah!”
Two sharp cries made everyone turn to look.
“What are you doing!”
“I’m sorry, it wasn’t on purpose.”
Sierra was trying to wipe off the wine stain on her light–colored long–sleeve dress, which was
particularly noticeable now.
A woman who had just steadied herself stood up and quickly apologized.
“I didn’t mean to, I just bumped into you!”
“I was just passing by you and got tripped. I really didn’t mean to.”
Sierra looked at the woman who offered an apology but showed no signs of remorse on her face, and
was extremely frustrated. Just as she was about to say something, Wendy interrupted her,
“Okay, Sierra, mind your manners. We’re at a party. Quickly go to the restroom and clean up the stain,
or it will be harder to fix once it dries.”
Hearing this, Sierra immediately pulled Wendy towards the restroom.
As soon as Chloe entered the restroom, she turned on the faucet and let the warm water warm her cold
hands.
Whenever she gently closed her eyes, a figure jumping down would flash through her mind, and she
would be startled, breaking out in a cold sweat. No amount of hot water could warm her up.
She turned the faucet to the maximum, one hand in the sink, the other on the countertop, head
lowered, trying to calm her crumbling emotions.
Stop thinking, she told herself.
But the image of the person jumping off kept replaying in her mind. The figure swooshed past her, too
fast for her to react. All she could do was stand there, watching the person jump off.
What could she possibly do?
Even if she reached out her hand, she couldn’t touch the figure. There was no chance.
Did she hate the Summers family? Yes, she did.
But her mother was a strong woman. She would never commit suicide just because Nick betrayed her
and had an illegitimate daughter. In front of so many people, Nick and Viviana couldn’t possibly have
the audacity to push someone into the sea.
Unless… it was her mother’s own doing…
But why? What could’ve driven her mother to choose suicide, to abandon her own daughter…
Every time she thought about it, she was left ‘dumbfounded.
When Wendy and Sierra walked into the restroom, they saw Chloe leaning against the sink, looking
somewhat tired.
Sierra snorted coldly. Every time she thought about Chloe and Nathan hugging each other, she felt
angry. Chloe already had Damon, and now she was trying to seduce Nathan. Absolutely shameless.
As for Wendy, she raised her eyebrows slightly, walked up to Chloe and supported her.
“Chloe, are you okay?”
Chloe frowned, looked up at Wendy, and said coldly when she felt her touch,
“Ms. Wendy, what new scheme have you thought of to embarrass me?”
As she spoke, she shook off Wendy’s hand and pushed her away.
“I was just concerned about you.” Wendy replied calmly.
Chloe sneered, not wanting to argue with her.
“Ms. Wendy, since you wanted to embarrass me through Jennifer and Jesse, you must know about
Keira.”
Wendy stared at her calmly.
Leaning against the sink, Chloe straightened up slightly, appearing casual and languid. She fixed her
gaze on Wendy, a faint smile appearing at the corner of her mouth, “You and her, you’re very alike.”
Wendy’s face turned serious instantly.
“But your tricks are just a tad better than hers, man, I overestimated you before… If you think you can
stand by Damon, then give it a shot! Don’t think just because you got the Alonso family backing you up,
you can push me around. If I respect you, then the Alonso family is like the family that has a deep bond
with the Harper family to me. But if I don’t, the Alonso family is just Alonso family, no different from the
Summers family, the Olson family, or any other.”
