Chapter 1323


    The fancy suit looked incredibly high–end, with the cuff of a pristine white shirt peeking out from the


    wrist as the arm lifted, the diamond cufflinks twinkling under the light.


    Just one look at that was enough for Chloe to know who the neer was, smiling involuntarily.


    Reporters swarmed around, eyes glued to the arm reaching out from the car. The clean white cuff,


    the expensive diamond cufflinks, and the well–defined palm, they all sensed that the man inside the


    car was someone they couldn’t resist.


    Chloe reached out and ced her hand on his, feeling the warm touch. Therge hand quickly


    sped Chloe’s tightly. The man then revealed half of his body, his other hand resting on Chloe’s


    slender waist, carefully pulling her into the car.


    Such an intimate gesture made hearts flutter. They wanted to see more, but the bodyguards quickly


    shut the car door.


    The car started and drove off in front of everyone.


    “Who was that?”


    “Must be Mr. Harper…”


    “Weren’t they rumored to have broken up?”


    Upon hearing the reporters‘ chatter, Wendy dashed out, only to see the back of the departing car.


    In the car.


    Chloe looked at Damon beside her and asked softly, “Why are you here?”


    “I’m here to take you home, of course.”


    Damon held Chloe’s hand, asionally giving it a squeeze, and never letting go, with a faint smile


    hanging on his lips.


    Chloe stayed silent for a while, then suddenly turned her head to look at Damon and blinked. “Did


    you know Jacob was just taken away for deliberately causing a car ident, poisoning, and bribing


    the organizers to buy answers?”


    Damon smirked. “Who else do you think could pull off such a thing?”


    Chloe looked at him, blinked, and said, “Yasmine.”


    The smile on Damon’s face faded a bit, his lips almost a straight line. Chloe secretly stuck her


    tongue out, feeling like she might have said the wrong thing. Damon was clearly not pleased. He


    finally had a chance to show off, but the credit almost went to someone else.


    The atmosphere in the car became a bit awkward. Chloe was quite helpless and shook Damon’s


    hand. “She’s my mom, you’re not really jealous of her, are you?” Damon kept his brow furrowed,


    stayed silent, and firmly showed his displeasure..


    “But you really saved me a lot of trouble.” Chloe leaned closer to him, holding his big hand, her


    voice soft, beginning her usual task-


    To dissipate his dissatisfaction!


    But Damon huffed. “I’m not great. Yasmine is better.”


    Chloe twitched her lips. She couldn’t even praise her own mom now? She was thinking, if she


    stopped her usual task today, would Damon sleep separately from her tonight?


    But if he was even jealous of her mother, wasn’t Damon a bit too narrow minded?


    “What are you thinking about?” Chloe’s silence was too much, and Damon couldn’t help but ask.


    This woman, once you let your guard down, you never knew what she was thinking.


    Chloe nced at Damon. “I’m thinking, who’s better, you or Yasmine?”


    As the car drove on, Chloe began to feel something was off.


    Owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    “Aren’t we on the way to the Peck family vi?”


    “Hmm, we changed ns. Something’s off about that ce.”


    Chloe could tell, the thing Damon found off was a certain Winston.


    “Winston and I… we don’t have anything special. I’ve always treated him like a little brother since


    we were kids.”


    The thought of Chloe sneaking into Winston’s room for snacks in the middle of the night made


    Damon wish he could punch Winston himself. He felt a heavy pressure in his heart, and looking at


    the woman in his arms, he couldn’t help but lean down to kiss her lips.


    The kiss was not forceful, but it was filled with a sense of punishment.


    “Hmm…” Chloe was startled and looked towards the front of the car. She saw the partition rise up,


    and her face flushed instantly.


    Damon ced his hand on Chloe’s waist and started to kiss her. Amidst her screams, his tongue


    entered her mouth. Then, his lips slowly slid down to her ear and


    he bit down without hesitation.


    “Ah…”


    Taken aback by this sudden treatment, Chloe let out a cry, her body going limp. His breath by her


    ear, his kisses and bites made her breathing a bit tight. “Winston is not your real brother,” he


    whispered, his voice husky and heart–pounding. He paused, then said, “Even if he was a real


    brother, it wouldn’t be okay!” Chloe’s face turned red. She had to admit, she was conquered by his


    dominance. He was jealous of her mother, let alone a brother with no blood rtions. The car


    stopped in front of the apartment, and Chloe sighed softly, not resisting.


    Just going with the flow. As long as he was with her.


    Before bed, Chloe took a shower,y in the middle of the bed, and chatted with Rose on her


    phone.


    [I’m noting back, you get some rest.]


    Rose sent her an exasperated emoji. [You’re so annoying! Always moving around just because you


    have houses!]


    [You can do the same, hurry up and earn money to buy a house for your kid! Without a house and a


    car, your kid won’t feel secure!]


    [Chloe, you’re so materialistic…]


    [If you want, you can send your son to live with me! I have plenty of houses.]


    …Go away! My son has self–respect, okay?]


    [Haha sure!]


    [I don’t want to talk to you right now!]


    Rose sent an eye–rolling emoji and their chat ended


    Thinking of Rose possibly questioning their friendship on her bed, Chloe couldn’t help butugh,


    she turned over and put her phone aside, then started to feel sleepy.


    Damon came out of the study, ready to enter the bedroom, his hand on the doorknob, but found the


    door wouldn’t open. He tried again, finally confirming that the door had been locked from the inside.
