Chapter 1604
He straightened up, picking up his phone which had fallen on the bed. His handsome face had just
shed on the video call when, a secondter, Elizabeth’s call was abruptly ended.
Elizabeth, who was about to say something, blinked in surprise after hearing the beeping sound, her
eyes then ring with anger. “That cheekyd dared to hang up on me!”
She immediately called back and was hung up on. She called again, and again was hung up on.
Without a second thought, Elizabeth knew this was Damon’s handiwork!
She decided to send a voice message this time. “Chloe, if your husband dares to hang up on me
again, I’ll I’ll cry on you!”
After much thought, Elizabeth felt it was unfair to threaten others by crying, but despite the
hesitation, she was firm. Chloe was her chosen daughter–inw, how could she bear to see her
cry?c2
When she called again, the video call was finally answered. Chloe appeared on the screen, her
cheeks flushed.
Elizabeth was quite pleased with herself. See, her daughter–inw was the most pleasing. “Chloe,
he didn’t hurt you, did he?”
Chloe’s face reddened even more. “No…”
“Wait until Ie back and I’ll deal with him. Just bear with him for now. Let him have his way.”
Chloe was starting to regret answering the call.
Damon, on the other hand, gave a silent smirk, ruffling Chloe’s hair. “Let’s have breakfast.”
The video call continued. Chloe and Elizabeth ate cheerfully on either end of the video call. Damon
and Royce nced at each other through the screen and then turned away, each watching their
wives eat breakfast.
Royce was sitting next to Elizabeth, still wearing an apron. Damon was sitting next to Chloe, also
still wearing an apron. The baby blue apron featured a white kitten withrge, round eyes.
The two handsome men had not made eye contact since the beginning. However, they both felt
helpless.
The mother–inw and daughter–inw seemed to get along too well, which was proving to not be
a good thing. Was it really necessary to keep the video call on even during breakfast?
Chloe figured that thick skin was forced out of necessity. The incident that had just urred would
have been enough for her to hide in embarrassment for a long time, and she definitely wouldn’t
want to meet Elizabeth and Royce anytime soon. However, she was now calmly having breakfast
with them on a video call, convincing herself that it was pointless to dwell on what had happened
and that it was important to act naturally
Hmm….she was starting to understand how people like Wendy managed to appear in public with an
air of superiority, even after their reputations
had been tamished.
After finishing breakfast, Chloe and Elizabeth looked up at each other through the screen, shared a
nce, and then turned their attention elsewhere, both breaking intoughter for some unknown
reason.
Royce and Damon looked at them in confusion, “What’s so funny?”
Chloe covered her mouth, herughter more modest. However, Elizabeth was the opposite, pointing
at the screen andughing at Damon.
“Why is it a kitten, hahaha. it’s so cute, but it looks so weird on you, hahaha…”
Damon looked down at the apron he had grown ustomed to wearing and hadn’t thought to take
off, noticing the little white kitten in the middle, his face darkening. As Elizabeth continued tough
uncontrobly, Damon removed his apron and tossed it onto a nearby chair.
Royce nced at the modestlyughing Chloe, and also removed his Peppa Pig apron without a
word.
Neither of them looked particrly pleased.
Elizabeth, seeing her son’s annoyed expression, gradually stoppedughing. “Alright, alright, that’s
enough for today! Chloe, let’s have breakfast together again tomorrow. You gotta eat more, and as
soon as I get things sorted out, I’lle home and spend time with you and my precious grandson!
What about Damon, her own son? Was he beingpletely ignored?
“Don’t call again unless it’s necessary!” Damonmanded with a stern face.
Elizabeth paused, her lips pursed and her eyes drooping, she turned to look at her husband with a
pitiful expression.
“Darling, look, your son is treating me like that
Royce wiped away the soup residue from Elizabeth’s lips, shooting Damon a cold look, and even
without speaking, Chloe could feel the chill fron his gaze
Without another word, Damon ended the video call The dining room was once again quiet, and
Chloe breathed a sigh of relief. She cautiously looked at Damon, then picked up her spoon and
served another bowl of soup. “This soup is really delicious. You’re amazing Everything you do is the
best.”
She was clearly buttering him up. Still his mood was visibly off.
Damon nced at the nearly empty soup pot, a faint smile crossing his lips. He lowered his gaze
and lifted Chloe’s shirt, patting her belly gently. Her belly was slightly round, making a “thump
thump” sound when patted. He looked at her, “Are you sure you want to eat more?”
Chloe pushed the bowl in front of her towards Damon. “It’s for you.”
Her obedient demeanor melted Damon’s heart. How could this woman be so adorable?
He stood up, carrying her in his arms and cing her on the dining table. “If your employees saw
you acting like this, would their faith in you shatter?”
Who would’ve thought that this strong businesswoman, who they regarded as a goddess, could act
so charmingly at home?
Chloe’s eyebrows twitched slightly, her eyes shimmering with a hint of mischief. “Should I give it a
try?”
Damon hummed lowly, leaning down to kiss her passionately. His husky voice was full of threats.
“I’d love to see you try.”
Chloe chuckled lightly. “If they knew I was such a pushover, how would I ever manage them?”
“A pushover?” Damon gave a wry smile, “And how exactly have I taken advantage of you?”N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.
Chloe, her eyes twinkling, retorted, “What do you think?”
Damon chuckled lowly, leaning in towards her once more.
They resumed the romantic entanglement in the bedroom that had been interrupted by Elizabeth.
Chloe’s breath hitched slightly, her hands clutching at Damon’s shoulders, surprisinglypliant
and reciprocating Damon’s advances.
Her gaze was slightly dazed.
