Chapter 1756
The entire airport fell silent. Everyone looked at Chloe, who was next to Nathan, with astonishment.
Their eyes fell on Chloe''s head, at the fluffy ears that suddenly stood up with the sound.
Silent.
Dead silent.
Everyone was clueless about the situation. It was an unexpected novelty, a novelty so unfamiliar
that Chloe wasn''t sure how this new addition would sit with her in the current situation.
Chloe waspletely in the dark about what was happening. Before leaving the house, Damon had
wrapped the scarf around her neck and ced the hat on her head with his own hands. She had
merely stood there, allowing him to dress her, not having any idea what the hat or scarf looked like.
That was right, her trust in Damon had reached such an extent that she seemed almost blind. And
even now, she was clueless about what was going on.
She just knew something was off, including everyone''s reactions around her.
She furrowed her brows, casting a quick nce at Damon who stood beside her, but Damon''s
expression at that moment was also notably surprised.
What was happening here?
The silence that followed felt like itsted an eternity.
However, the instigator of this whole situation, Nathan, seemed oblivious to it all. Seeing the ears
spring up just as he expected, he couldn''t contain his excitement.
“Hahaha, I didn''t expect you to actually like this, Chloe!" heughed, stretching out his other hand to
grab the other charm on Chloe''s hat.
Then, he tugged at the charms on Chloe''s hat from the left and right.
"Squeak—"
"“Squeak—"
"Squeak Squeak Squeak—"
A series of "squeaks" echoed through therge airport. Chloe''s bunny ears on her hat started
bobbing in rhythm with the sounds.
Even if Chloe was unaware of what her hat was capable of, after watching Nathan''s antics, she had
a pretty good idea. She grimaced, swatted Nathan''s hand away, and then grabbed one of the
charms, giving it a firm squeeze.
“Squeak—"
A peculiar sensation came from the top of her head. Chloe''s mouth dropped open in surprise.
"Hahaha"
Nathanughed even harder. “Chloe, don''t tell me you didn''t know your hat could do that?"
Chloe looked at Damon, whose eyes were fixated on her bobbing bunny ears. She could detect a
hint of novelty in his dark gaze. She then nced sideways at the several tall, dignified men behind
her. Clearly, they also wore expressions of astonishment and amazement on their faces.
She turned back to Nathan, "How did you know."
Nathan replied, “What''s so surprising about this? This hat is all the rage right now, even little Anya
has one."
Anya. A child barely a few years old owned one...
Chloe looked at Damon, her eyes full of usation. However, Damon''s face remained impassive, a
hint of interest now apparent in his gaze.
This little episode had everyone around them chuckling. The tense atmosphere that had been
created by the men was now reced with a lighter one.
“That''s Ms. Summers. Isn''t she adorable?"
“Nathan is so outgoing, and handsome too. He must be fun to be with."
“The men standing next to her are all handsome, aren''t they? And they are so cute too! Have you
seen their surprised faces when the hat started squeaking and the bunny ears stood up? It''s just too
adorable!"
"But what are they all doing here? It’s quite the gathering."
As the questions were raised, a nearby journalist snapped back to reality and hurried towards Chloe
and her group. They were quickly surrounded by the crowd and had no choice but to stay put.
Nate quickly organized his men to protect everyone. Damon pulled Chloe into his arms, his cold
eyes staring down the reporters.
"Ms. Summers, may I ask where are you all off to?"
Chloe didn''t reply, but Kane stepped forward, clearing his throat before saying, "Didn''t you know?
Chloe has been invited to the Global Economic Summit in H City."
Everyone was taken aback by this news.
“She''s been invited to the Global Economic Summit? Oh my god, just a year."
The reporter continued, "So is Mr. Damon going as herpanion?"

As herpanion?
It was quite normal for public figures to bring a date to a public event. Now, Damon''s reputation as a
boy toy was solidified, hitching a ride on Chloe''s fame to the Global Economic Summit.
Chloe didn''t get a chance to speak; Damon''s face remained impassive. Kane feigned ignorance to
the reporter''s insinuations, and said, "Of course Damon is Chloe''spanion. They already have
babies together, and it''s toote for regrets now. They''ll just have to make do."
Clearly, Kane''s words earned him a kick from Damon.
Kane forced a smile to the camera, nursing his sore foot. Damon, holding Chloe, headed towards
the security check. The others trailed behind them.
Seeing them leave, Kane quickly tossed the microphone back into the crowd of reporters and ran to
catch up with the group.
Despite not getting any significant news, the reporters noticed Robin and Presley standing not far
away. The two men stood there, observing everything with a cold gaze.
The reporters quickly ran towards them.
“Mr. Presley, are you also going to H City to attend the Global Economic Summit?"
"We just learned that Ms. Summers of Starlight International also received an invitation to the
Global Economic Summit. Did you know about this? Do you have any idea where she might rank in
the summit?"
“What are your thoughts on Mr. Damon apanying Ms. Summers to the Global Economic
Summit?"
The questions seemed to hit a nerve for Presley; his face darkened as he began to speak. "Ms.
Summers is remarkably assertive with superb business acumen, and her current achievements are
not surprising. I reckon she''ll be the breakout star at this year''s Global Economic Summit. As for her
rankings, I don''t know, and frankly, it doesn''t concern me. However, making it to the top of the global
economy in such a short time is nothing short of miraculous. As for her taking Damon as her plus
one, I''ve got no opinion on that. A grown man riding a woman''s coattails to the Global Economic
Summit, well, if he doesn''t find that embarrassing, I''ve got to admire him."
With every word, he professed indifference and ignorance, but each sentence dripped with
contempt and sarcasm towards Chloe and Damon. The reporters, ever eager to twist a story, were
already drafting their headlines.
“As a senior member, and a respected veteran of the Global Economic Summit, do you have any
advice for Ms.
Summers, the business world''s rising star?"
Presley''s eyes glinted with impatience, but he responded nheless, "She''s young, so it''s
inevitable that there will be some recklessness and arrogance. It''s best to keep her feet on the
ground and steer clear of any shortcuts. Attending the Global Economic Summit is indeed a proud
moment, and she should treasure it. She might not get another chance to attend with such fanfare."
Not just the reporters, but even the few people undergoing security checks at the front, understood
the veiled threat in Presley''s words.
After this year''s Global Economic Summit, he intended to suppress Chloe, preventing her from
attending the next summit.
