Chapter 1238
Seeing this, Elizabeth immediately said, “Maybe there really is something urgent. Chloe, you don’t
look so good, I’ll get a doctor for you.”
“No need.” Chloe stopped her “Maybe I didn’t sleep wellst night, I’ll probably feel better after a
nap”

‘Eat breakfast first before you sleep. The engagement party is tomorrow, and there are going to be
many people to deal with. You can’t be sick.”
In the end, Chloe was firmly dragged into the dining room by Elizabeth.
Afterwards, the Harper family members began toe down for breakfast one after another. Rose
and Yulia couldn’t help but ask when they saw Chloe’splexion.
Knowing that Damon didn’te back all night, they didn’t make a big deal out of it. In their eyes,
Chloe looked love–sick.
Soon after, the dining room was filled with the aroma of food. Freshly made sandwiches were
spreading their fragrance.
Chloe took a few sips of milk, and when she smelled the sandwich, she couldn’t help but frown.
Rose’s face was also a bit grim, so she forced herself to swallow a few times, quickly ate a couple
of sausages, and felt a bit better. Then she looked at Chloe, who was just drinking milk and eating
sausages.
“Aren’t you going to eat the sandwich?” Rose waved a sandwich in front of Chloe.
Chloe was already feeling dizzy, and her stomach was ufortable. Rose’s waving made her
immediately turn her head and push Rose’s hand away strongly.
“You eat it.”
Rose took a bite, “It’s potato sd.”
Chloe turned even further away.
When she went upstairs to rest again, her phone finally rang. Seeing it was Damon, Chloe sighed in
relief and quickly answered the call.
“Hello?”
*Chloe.”
Chloe let out a soft breath, “Are you okay?”
No doubt. No suspicion. Damon didn’t return all night, but the reason for her anxiety was just
because she was worried about him.
Damon was silent for a few seconds before speaking in a somewhat cold voice. “Are you feeling
unwell?”
Chloe paused and walked outside with her phone. Her voice became gentle and hurt. “It’s all
because you didn’te backst night…”
“I’m sorry.”
Chloe walked on the carefully maintained path with a smile on her face. “As long as you’re okay.
Did you get things sorted out? When are youing back?”
Damon fell silent again. “…I might not be able to make it back today.”
Chloe’s steps slowly stopped. “…What do you mean by noting back…” She held the phone
tightly, her lips tightly closed. “Should we cancel the engagement party?”
Because he has important things to do, temporarily canceling the engagement party was the right
choice. She alsoforted herself in this way.
Listening to her hesitation and suggestion, Damon was silent for a long time.
“I’ll be back tomorrow and I will definitely attend the party.”
Over the phone, Chloe silently nodded. “Okay, I’ll wait for you.”
“Mm.”
“Then I’ll hang up now. You deal with your things as quickly as possible.”
“Chloe.”
“Hmm?”
“Did Presley give you any troublest night?”
A touch of softness shed in Chloe’s eyes, “He won’t give me any trouble. Just hurry up and deal
with your things.”
After hanging up the phone, Chloe held the phone in her palm, stood still, took a deep breath, and
then exhaled heavily.
Nate nced at the man sitting in the back seat in a suit, his demeanor elegant, through the
rearview mirror. His car was speeding, his gaze always fixed on the road ahead. After a while, he
slowly said, “Sir…we might not be able to make it back tomorrow night…”
When saying this, Nate didn’t take a deep breath, his hands tightly gripping the steering wheel, his
eyes staring straight ahead, not even daring to blink. “You got your answer on the ne yesterday,
if you want to take them away, they won’t agree.”
“If we can’t take them, we’ll just snatch them.” Damon’s low and hard voice slowly spoke out, that
determined attitude, not allowing any rebuttal.
Nate nodded. He knew the boss would make this decision, so he said, if they really wanted to force
their way, it would not be possible to make it in time for the party tomorrow night. “Sir, even if we
postpone the engagement party for one day, it would be okay…”
Damon’s gaze swept over the scenery rushing past outside the window, his face calm, What he
thought of was when he leftst night, Chloe’s tight grip on his clothes, and her attempt to hide her
unease, but inability topletely conceal it.
His heart ached a bit. When would she be able to value herself more in front of him? But precisely
because she looked like this, how could he disappoint her?
00:13
‘She’s
very scared.”
After a while, Damon’s low voice slowly came. Perhaps he was talking to himself or he was
answering Nate’s question.
She was very scared. If it was postponed for a day, she would have to worry for another day. So it
couldn’t be postponed,
Not even for half a day, an hour, a minute, or even a second.
Nate didn’t say anything anymore In fact, when he left with the Damonst night, even he who was
always by his side, could feel Chloe’s unease and anxiety.
Perhaps Chloe’s sixth sense was too urate. From the time Nate went to find Damon to the time
they left, they never thought that today they would be racing on thend of B Country.
They might not even make it to the engagement party.
He hadn’t known Chloe for a long time, but, so far,st night was the most uneasy and tense Nate
had seen Chloe. Because every other time, she was confident, smart, and always had the upper
hand.
The car sped up again. He just hoped to be one second earlier, Chloe’s unease and anxiety could
be reduced by one second.
Chloe returned to the living room from her walk outside, her spirits seemed to have recovered a bit.
At least Elizabeth and the others didn’t insist on getting a doctor
anymore.
However, Chloe did feel a bit dizzy today, and after thinking about it, she decided to go upstairs and
rest for a while.
“Hold on, Chloe. This is an orange your grandma brought back for you. Eat one before you go.”
Elizabeth handed her a peeled orange.
How could Chloe refuse? She immediately took it.
Rose was still enjoying her food on the side. The orange peels on the table were already piling up.
Chloe couldn’t help but frown and looked at her. “Can you not act like you’ve been starving for
days?”
