Wendy was managing the guests with a touch of grace that seemed a little overdone. Chloe raised an
eyebrow, but certainly wasn’t going to call her out on it. After all, tonight’s business dinner was her hard
work. Why not let someone else take the reins for a change?
Chloe, seeing that Wendy was intentionally keeping the guests from interacting with her too much,
decided to take her leave. But as she turned, she noticed Damon heading her way. Her eyes, which
had a faint smile, suddenly brightened upon seeing the man.
It was clear to the onlookers that this wasn’t her usual smile. They had never thought that a person’s
smile could be so diverse, varying in intensity, depth, and
emotion.
As Damon approached, his presence was overwhelming. Wherever he went, he became the center of
attention without having to say or do anything.
His extraordinarily handsome face bore a hint of indifference, and his sharp, well–defined features
remained unmoved. His abyss–like black eyes revealed no trace of emotion.c2
Except when he was with Chloe. Only then could others glimpse the other expressions on his face.
It was also thanks to him that the strong woman, who always wore a distant smile and never showed a
trace of warmth between her eyebrows in front of others, showed them a different side of her. The icy
aloofness in her eyes was replaced by a warmth that she herself probably didn’t even realize.
Their interaction inevitably drew the attention of everyone around them.
“What were you talking about?” Damon asked Chloe in a low voice as he stood beside her.
Chloe smiled, her gaze softening as she looked up at him. “Just discussing the Alonso family’s
investment project. Are you done?”
“Yes.” Damon’s expression was indifferent as he scanned the room. “Are you done too?”
“I’m done.” Chloe shook her head. “I’m hungry, and I want juice: Or maybe soda would be better.”
“What do you want to drink?” Damon asked, his tone somewhat dangerous.
Chloe blinked, quickly saying, “Milk.”
Only then was Damon satisfied, stepping forward and wrapping his arms around her waist. “Let’s go
get something to eat.”/
Nate, standing nearby, was taken aback. His boss seemed to be unusually assertive in front of his wife
today.
But Chloe was smart enough to let him take the lead in public. Smart people were always likable.
“Nate.” Damon’s voice brought Nate back to reality. He quickly responded and left to carry out his
orders.
The onlookers were confused but soon got it.
In one corner of the business banquet, a table was filled with all kinds of snacks. Nate was
continuously adding more items: juices, milk, you name it. And the host of this corner was none other
than Chloe, sitting next to Damon.
Seeing the table full of snacks, Chloe was silent for a moment. “Isn’t this a bit much?” Was this what
Damon meant when he said he’d take her to eat? This seemed a bit showy.
“The food outside isn’t clean,” Damon said nonchalantly, as if there was nothing strange about their
current behavior
“I’m not that delicate,” Chloe responded. “As long as it’s not poisoned, it’s okay.”
Damon cut a piece of chocolate cake for Chloe. “Try this,”
She took a bite, and the gazes of the people around inevitably made her feel uncomfortable.
At any banquet, snacks, and beverages were a given. All the guests invited by the Alonso family were
prominent figures in P City, so the quality of the food and drinks was top–notch. But when it came to
Chloe, why did they have to make a special arrangement?
Although Chloe felt it was a bit too much, she was relieved to know that the food was safe. She didn’t
have to worry about any foul play or unhealthy additives. Meanwhile, Presley, sitting in the corner,
scowled at the spectacle. How could Damon be so brazen for a woman?
Robin watched the scene with a sarcastic smile. “I never thought I’d see the day when Damon would
go to such lengths for a woman. But that’s nothing. He’d even give up the company for her.”
Presley was livid. “I want to see how far he’ll go for her. Now he has nothing and is making a fool of
himself in public. It’s simply disgraceful.”
Robin adjusted his position, his eyes full of meaning as he watched the scene unfold.
In his mind, he thought of the recent media coverage and its impact.
“It’s only a matter of time. I believe Damon won’t be able to stand being penniless forever. He’ll come
back eventually. Don’t worry, Dad.”
Presley huffed. “He thinks he’s invincible because he’s talented. He’s young and reckless. But starting
over isn’t that easy.”
“Indeed.” Robin agreed with a smile, but his eyes were cold. He wouldn’t let Damon start over, posing
an endless threat to him, nor would he let him easily return to the Harper family and threaten his
position.
Now that he had left the Harper family, it wouldn’t be so easy for him to come back.
If Presley wasn’t going to change his mind, then he would just slightly destroy this nephew of his.
He wasn’t that incompetent, brainless Wendy whose eagerness to get things done was destructive. He
had all the time and patience in the world to spend with him.
