Chapter 1191
"What''s up?”
His voice was a low growl with a hint of huskiness. He poured himself a ss of ice water and took
a couple of sips as he spoke. Nate could tell that Damon was gradually recovering from his dazed
state. This confirmed Nate''s suspicions that Damon had just crawled out of Chloe’s embrace and
was still slightly out of it.
The ss of ice water seemed to have a simr effect as a cold shower. Nate couldn''t help but think
of this.
What the hell was he thinking?! Damon''s charm was just too overpowering.
His words met with no response, Damon raised an eyebrow and leaned back on the couch,
watching Nate. The look in his eyes sent chills down Nate''s spine. "Mr. Harper, Ms.
Wendy went home, but she started running a fever not long after she left. Presley called in a
medical team. She has a high fever caused by an infected wound and is currently being treated."
Damon took another sip of water, a small smile appearing on his face at Nate''s report. "Alright"
There was a moment of silence before Nate spoke up again, "I''ll get going now.’
"Assign more people to protect Chloe’
Nate immediately replied, “Alright.”
Elizabeth was staying and didn''t want to leave, so Royce decided to stay as well. It wasn''t until
dinner time that Chloe crawled out of bed and came downstairs.
Seeing Chloe''s appearance, a smirk shed across Elizabeth''s face. "You must have had a good
nap this afternoon, why do you look so tired?"
Chloe was startled by her words and couldn''t help but blush.
"I was just..." She was trying toe up with an excuse but couldn''t think of anything she could
possibly have been doing in her bedroom that afternoon. After a moment''s thought, she came up
with a seemingly safe excuse, “watching a movie in bed.”
"A movie?" Elizabeth chuckled, "What were you watching?"
What movie? An porno.
Only an idiot would say that out loud.
"Debt Collection." Damon shoved a fork and knife into Chloe''s hands as he spoke.
"Debt Collection?" Elizabeth looked puzzled.
“Yep. We were watching it together’
Elizabeth scoffed dismissively, "Just hearing the title makes me not want to watch it’
Chloe took a bite of her food, her head bowed as she chewed. Her ears were practically glowing
red.
Debt collection? Sounded about right! She did bite him a couple of times, after all. And she
definitely paid for it.
The next day at noon, Chloe went to the airport to pick up Rose. Her car led the way with three
sedans trailing behind.
All the way to the airport, a dozen bodyguards in ck suits followed her.
She couldn''t refuse, the sudden incident in West Valley a few days ago had been surprising and
frightening enough for her, let alone for Damon. As for him arranging bodyguards for her, she could
understand.
But... Wasn''t it a bit too much?
Chloe sighed, ignoring their presence and walked ahead expressionlessly. Even with sunsses
on, she was still recognized by some.
"Who''s that? Are those people in ck her bodyguards?
Why is it so over the top?"
"I think I''ve seen her somewhere before. Isn''t that Ms.
Summers from Starlight International?"
"I heard she''s getting engaged. I wonder who the lucky guy is?"
"Stop guessing who her fiancé is, it''s old news! It''s either someone filthy rich or a young
entrepreneur. Whoever it is, it doesn''t matter, she''s getting engaged anyway.’
"It''s impressive for a woman to reach her position. She''s got money, looks, and a great figure, even
if her husband doesn''t make a dime, it''s all good.’
At that moment, a woman in a ck leather coat was watching her through her dark red
sunsses, her gaze filled with sternness and disgust. The intensity of her stare made the usually
silent Chloe uneasy. When Chloe looked her way, the woman was startled and quickly averted her
gaze, adjusting her sunsses as she walked haughtily toward the exit.
Chloe looked around the crowd but only saw people moving about. Not long after, she heard the
announcement of Rose''s nending safely.
"Chloe!"
About ten minutester, Chloe heard a familiar voice. She looked up to see Rose, dressed in a long
dress and a long cotton coat, walking towards her.
Her bodyguards immediately reacted but were stopped by Chloe.
The two women embraced at the railing. Chloe took off her sunsses and studied Rose''s face
carefully. Seeing that Rose didn''t look too bad and hadn''t lost any weight, Chloe smiled.
"You haven''t lost any weight.’
“Of course I haven''t. I can’t let my baby go hungry.’
Chloe smiled reassuringly, "Are you hungry? What do you feel like eating?"
"I could eat anything. Shall we go to a restaurant?"
Chloe disagreed. "Restaurants might not be clean. Let''s go to the supermarket, buy some
ingredients, and I''ll cook for you:
"Okay."
On the way, Rose had a lot to talk about. Chloe just listened, answering whatever Rose asked. She
actually wanted to ask Rose many things about her rtionship with Morrison.
She wanted to know what Rose had been through these past few days. But she knew that Rose
was talking non-stop to avoid any of her questions.
At the supermarket, Rose seemed to have a good appetite and wanted to eat a lot of things. They
bought a lot of food.
When they were checking out, Rose noticed a box on the shelf, picked one up, and waved it in front
of Chloe.

"Do you want a box?"
Chloe took a nce but didn''t really see it clearly. She took it from Rose and had a closer look. The
packaging had the brand "Durex" on it.
"What''s this?"
Rose looked at her in surprise. "You really don''t know what this is?"
"_..Do I need to know?"
Rose gave her a two-second nce, a mischievous grin suddenly shing across her face. She
nudged her with her shoulder, gave her a wink, and said, "What''s with the innocent act? Don''t tell
me you''ve never used this with Mr.
Harper.”
