Chapter 916
Nathan shoved his hands in his pockets, trailing behind Chloe. Tall and slender, yet bursting with
energy, she was a striking figure with an extraordinary charisma and a sharp mind.
He had to admit, Damon sure had a good taste. He had spotted a woman like Chloe, a real gem.
With a light raise of his brows and a few long strides, Nathan caught up with her.
“Are you in a rush to get home?”
Chloe abruptly stopped, turned back to her room, and took out a key card to unlock the door. In a
moment, she emerged with a few bags and handed them over to Nathan.
“What’s this?”
‘Clothes,” Chloe replied indifferently
Nathan took a quick glimpse. “Ha,” he said, “don’t tell me these are clothes you bought for me.”
After putting the card back, Chloe coolly replied, “They are from Yu.”
Nathan’s face turned icy
Sensing Nathan’s mood shift, Chloe turned to look at him. He was tall and strong, even more so
than Damon. Her gaze rose to meet his, his expression grim, with a slight smirk on his lips.
“Something’s off with you today. Did you have a fight with Yu?”
Nathan looked down at her, his usual smile wiped off from his face and his voice bing colder.
“Did we ever have a good time together?”
Chloe pressed the elevator button and replied nonchntly, “If you are not happy together, why did
you marry her? You guys are a married couple now, after all.”
As the elevator door opened, they stepped in, one after the other.
“I can’t help but notice that you didn’t seem to have any ns to bring Yufia and Anya back. It
seems like you guys are just putting on a show. But I remember you didn’t object to Yulia and Anya
going to Granny Harper’s. You wanted Granny Harper to know about her, but now It’s like you two
are living separate lives. What’s going on in your head?”
Nathan’s brows knitted slightly: appearing somewhat vexed.
“I’m not thinking about anything.”
Chloe smiled faintly. That line….
Seemed true.
If he wasn’t thinking about anything, that would feel the most real.
She wasn’t one to meddle in others‘ affairs. She used to only care about herself, and there weren’t
many people who needed her Interference. Now, she realized, there were many people around her
that she cared about unconsciously.
She shed a small smile. But, she knew better than to meddle in others‘ rtionships. A little
concern would suffice. Getting too involved would probably mess things up.
The elevator halted midway. An old man sat alone in a wheelchair at the elevator entrance,
radiating a natural authority.
Chloe nced at his face and surroundings, making sure he was alone, and asked, “Are you
getting on?”
“You’re not a local, are you?” The old man looked at her and responded.
Chloe nodded, replying softly. “Mm–hmm.”
The old man wheeled himself into the elevator.
Chloe watched the old man struggling to adjust his wheelchair. While she didn’t help openly, she
subtly steadied the wheelchair, making it easier for him to adjust.
Despite the minor gesture, Nathan saw it all.
Once the old man got the wheelchair set, he nced up at Chloe, who stared ahead, with no
expressions on her face.
The elevator finally stopped at the first floor.

When the elevator doors opened, Chloe nced at the woman standing across from her. The
woman was wearing a dark red fur shawl and had her back facing the elevator doors while talking
on the phone, right in
front of the elevator entrance.
Chloe furrowed her brows, but the old man was already wheeling himself out. Just then, the womah
at the elevator entrance burst intoughter, causing her to move backwards slightly.
Chloe swiftly reached out to grab the handle of the wheelchair, trying to dodge the woman, but it
was toote.
The woman’s phone fell from her ear onto the floor, followed by a shrill scream!
Seeing her phone screen shattered, her face darkened. Spotting the old man In the wheelchair who
had bumped into her, she immediately red at Chloe, who was pushing the wheelchair.
‘I’m sorry…”
“Are you blind?!”
Chloe decided to apologize to resolve the Issue. Even though it wasn’t entirely her fault, she was
guiding the old man, and the woman was directing her anger at her. So, she Instinctively
responded.
She thought an apology would resolve the issue, especially since it wasn’t entirely her fault. But
before she could finish, the woman’s sharp words made her face darken.
She looked up at the woman, seeing a middle–aged face decently maintained but heavily made up,
trying to give off a natural look. There was a familiar feel in her features.
Chloe’s gaze was icy, her Imposing presence startling the woman enough to make her step back..
She straightened her back and sald crossly, “What are you ring at? You bumped into me and you
think you’re in the right? Look at what happened to my phone! I don’t want to argue, just give me
20,000 dors and I’ll go!”
“You were the one who bumped into us,” Chloe retorted coldly.
“That’s why I said you’re blind! I was facing away from you, I don’t have eyes In the back of my
head. Don’t you have eyes in the front of your head? Can’t you dodge when I step back?!‘
Chloe bit her lip lightly. “This is a public ce, not your home. Your behavior tells me you’re not that
great, I don’t have to step aside every time I see youl
There were a few people waiting for the elevator nearby. They had nothing to do and had watched
the whole scene unfold.
The woman had been making a call in the elevator hall, changing topics from brands to various
types of jewelry, loudly mentioning “not expensive, just tens of thousands of dors,” “only 20,000
dors,” “only a few thousand dors? That’s fake!”
She was speaking so loudly, as if worried that others wouldn’t know she was rich, which was quite
annoying.
They all started sharing their opinions.
“She’s treating this ce like her own home; her phone call was so loud It could blow the roof off!”
*She was blocking the elevator with her back, bumped into someone, and they didn’t even say
anything, but shes the one who lost her temper. That’s just disgraceful.”
“A phone for 20,000 dors, that’s Impressive!”
