Chapter 278

    “You might be surprised, but Damon is on his way, and he’s noting alone!”


    Everyone was curious, Who’sing with him”


    Whoever was apanying Damon must be someone of great importance


    Upon hearing this, the usually haughty Kane instantly calmed down.


    “How would I know who it is? But I can tell you for sure, it’s a woman


    ‘A woman?


    “A woman?”


    Really.


    Tve never met Damon, but I heard he notoriously dislikes women. How could he possibly bring a


    woman?”


    Kane waved his hand, “If you don’t believe it, just wait and see We’ll find out soon enough.”


    “No more betting“” someone joked.


    Kane’s face turned gloomy. Recalling thest time he called Seth “Daddy“, he was so angry that he


    couldn’t sleep well for a week


    Betting on Damon again? Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    Though he was pretty sure he just heard a woman’s voice, he no longer trusted Damon’s words.


    Last time, he was certain Damon woulde, but he was fooled!


    Seth easily got the better of him!


    Maybe this time he could turn the tables.


    He nced at Seth, asking. “Wanna bet?”


    Seth held a cigarette between his fingers, a faint blue me flickering on the tip. He exhaled a wisp


    of pale smoke,zily floating before his eyes.


    He was calm and elegant, both rxed and casual.


    His gaze swept over Kane, a smile tugging at the corner of his mouth, “Are you sure?”


    Kane was used to Seth’s indifferent demeanor, always appearing calm and gentle on the surface


    but full of cunning underneath.


    His question made Kane tense up, eventually waving off, “Nah, no more bets, it’s boring.”


    Seth chuckled softly. “Is that so? Don’t regret it then.”


    On the way to the Stardust Soiree, Chloe hung up on several calls.


    “Is it Lance?”


    Chloe nced at Damon, nodding her head, “Yeah.”


    Then, her phone rang again.


    This time it was text messages.


    Lance: “Chloe, where are you? I’ve been waiting for you outside your building for a while, why aren’t


    you home yet?”


    Lance: “Why aren’t you home sote, I’m worried about you.”


    Lance: “Chloe, can you answer the phone? I want to talk to you.”


    Having eaten quite a bit tonight, plus Lance’s several calls and these text messages, Chloe’s


    already not–so–good stomach suddenly felt ufortable. She took a deep breath and turned off


    her phone, putting it into her bag.


    “What’s wrong?”


    “Nothing, I think he’s upset because his girlfriend got slighted today. He probably wants to pick a


    fight with me.”


    “Bugging you?”


    Damon’s tone suddenly became cold and dangerous.


    “Let hime.”


    Chloe looked at him, his obvious provocative attitude made her burst outughing.


    “What are youughing at?”


    Damon didn’t look pleased.


    He dared to bother his woman?


    “He’s not worth your time.”


    “Anyone who bullies you is worth a beating from me.
