Chapter 1494

Chloe was left speechless. If things were really like this, then it wouldn't be impossible for some kindof punishment to happen. "Don't worry, everything will be fine. Trust in the doctor. Let’s wait until after the surgery." Chloe saidnonchalantly, her hand on Phoebe's back, giving a light pat. Her words and expression were just like the Phoebe she knew from the shopping mall and in frontof the camera, brimming with confidence and completely calm and collected. It just... didn't quitematch her current outfit. With Chloe by her side, Phoebe magically didn't feel so nervous anymore. She sniffed, her eyesscanning Chloe before pointing at her clothes and saying, "You look pretty cute in that outfit." Chloe looked down at her own pastel clothes, smiling slightly. Cute... The thought of someone picking out this outfit made her look up at Damon, who had a somewhattroubled expression on his face. Just when she thought he was angry, Damon pulled out a thermos from somewhere and handed itto her. His gaze shifted to Phoebe as he coldly asked, "What do you know about that guy?" Phoebe shook her head. "I'm not sure, today at the police station, I only heard his assistant call himMr. Azriel, apparently he just returned from abroad..." Damon's brows furrowed slightly. Mr. Azriel... Just returned from abroad... Just as he was lost in thought, the door to the emergency room suddenly opened. The doctor cameout first, his mask hanging on one ear, clearly having just finished the surgery. Phoebe's body went soft, but she rushed forward, nervously asking the doctor. "Doctor, how is it?" "Mm, the operation went well, and we have already pumped his stomach. Please take good care ofhim." Phoebe let out a long sigh of relief, quickly bowing to the doctor in thanks. "Thank you!" As long as he was okay, everything was fine. Everything could be resolved slowly. Then, the medical assistants came out pushing a hospital bed.

Azriel was still unconscious, his face so pale it was hard to look at. Phoebe immediately went up tohim, her eyes red as she looked at Azriel. "Thank God, you're still alive." If anyone else saw her, they would definitely be moved by her expression and relief; it was rare tosee a woman care so much about a man. This kind of emotion was truly touching. But only those in the know would understand, that the reason Phoebe was like this, was simplybecause... She didn't have to go to jail. Phoebe followed the gurney all the way, and when they passed by Damon, his dark eyes flickeredwith surprise when he saw the face of the man on the gurney, and then a faint smile appeared onthe corners of his lips. Chloe, sensitive to the change in the man beside her, looked up at him. Seeing his expression atthat moment, she suddenly said, "What are you doing? Are you laughing at me?" Damon looked down at her, the amusement in his eyes had not yet faded. "I just think that it's asmall world." Chloe, being smart, immediately asked, "You know that man?" Damon raised an eyebrow, not answering. But that expression was an obvious admission. Thismade Chloe very curious. "Who is he?" "A person who's prepared a surprise for you." This vague answer left Chloe at a loss. She had absolutely no information about this man in hermemory. She had no way of guessing. Giving her a surprise? Why would he give her a surprise? But... Who didn’t like surprises? In any case, it was clear whether this person was a friend or foe. Phoebe had been following Azriel all the way until they reached the ward. Half an hour later, Azriel's assistant arrived. When he saw Damon, his expression was clearly veryscared. "Mr. Harper." "The test results won't be out until tomorrow. That girl is my wife's younger sister, so if you guyswant to hold someone responsible, remember to inform me."

Azriel's assistant opened his mouth, wanting to say something but not knowing how. He could onlynod. "I understand." "Good." Damon nodded indifferently, taking Chloe by the hand, and heading out of the hospital. "We should go see Phoebe." "His assistant will tell her." "Isn't it a bit bad to not go and say hello to Phoebe..." Damon's lips were tightly pursed. He bent down and picked up the still talking Chloe. "Do you knowwhat time it it now? Don't waste your time here. Time for you to go to bed." Chloe's thoughts were seen through, her face showing a hint of embarrassment. "But I slept a lot onthe plane. I'm not sleepy..." Her thoughts were immediately exposed. She had felt sleepy when the plane landed, but she hadslept after all. She was now full of energy, there was no hint of sleepiness at all. If they went home now, Damon would force her to sleep. She used to work overtime and stay uplate, so being able to sleep peacefully was a luxury for her. But since being with Damon, life hadbecome orderly, so now, sleeping had become something she wanted to avoid. Damon didn't care about her protest; he just silently carried her out of the hospital. Although it was already late at night, there were still people coming and going in the hospital lobby.Damon was undoubtedly the most conspicuous target anywhere. When he appeared in the lobbycarrying Chloe, almost everyone's gaze turned to him. Especially Chloe in his arms, which drew everyone's curious glances and expressions. Somepeople even started pointing at them. Damon acted as if nothing had happened, his gaze always straight ahead. However, Chloe felt thatsomething was wrong. She listened carefully, vaguely hearing people saying, "Men are all unreliable," "Some women arealso bold, and just waiting to get into trouble," and "So openly and shamelessly doing such things,each one is more shameless than the next."

What had happened? Why did it sound like there was more dissatisfaction with Damon? She was full of doubts, but before she could think, two young girls blocked their path.
