Chapter 1516

If they loved to go nuts, let them go bonkers. But if no one was gonna bother with them, theirspotlight was gonna dim.

Everyone had been keeping tabs on Chloe these days. She was all "whatever" about it, and herattitude had everyone forgetting about the three-day deadline Carolina set. Well, that didn't includethose journalists always sniffing around for news.

Today, Carolina strutted into Starlight International, kicking up a fuss. She was all high and mighty,shamelessly clear about her goal: pay up or I'll see you in court.

Some people got ticked off and gave her a piece of their mind, only to get swarmed by her fans. Awar of words was about to erupt when Damon suddenly popped up on camera and everythingflipped.b "Man, this guy is top-notch."

"Way to go, absolutely smashing. Made my day."

"Damn, I wish I had a man like that."

"I used to trash talk him. I so regret it now. How could I have used such harsh words? I messed up, Ineed to repent."

"Is that the point?! Nope! Can someone tell me who's the shy lady in the frame?!"

"It's Ms. Summers! What a sight! Women are such fickle creatures."

"Is that the point?! Nope! The point is, I'm drowning in their sweet lovey-dovey vibes. How can theirlove be so sweet?!"

"The point is, where are they planning to have lunch? You know what I mean."

"Right, right, haha, that's the real deal. Hope they stuff their faces."

Damon had already instructed the chef to prepare lunch. The pair just stepped in the house, thewarmth of the room made Chloe sigh. "Home sweet home."

Suddenly, she was pulled into Damon's embrace, the zip on her down jacket slowly being pulleddown. "You're not dressed warm enough. If you keep this up, you're staying in."

Chloe spread her arms, helping Damon slip off her down jacket.

Her skin, accentuated by the grey fitted sweater, looked even smoother, giving off a refreshing vibe.

The body wrapped in the down jacket exuded a faint fragrance. A unique scent to Chloe, makingDamon's gaze even more intense.

This scent was with him every day, this body with its familiar fragrance coming close to him everynight. It took all his willpower just to hold her.

At night, he had to remind himself to stay alert, not to make a move on this woman. Otherwise, he'dbe the one suffering. He'd had his fair share of losses with her.

But now, he realized that even helping her off with her jacket could stir him up without her evenknowing it.

Chloe, completely oblivious to the man beside her being smitten, reached out to help Damonunbutton his jacket.

"I've pretty much sorted out the company affairs. From now on, the reins of Starlight Internationalare in your hands."

Damon's gaze followed Chloe's busy hands on his chest. "Me in charge?"

"Yes." Chloe nodded. All buttons undone, she looked up at him with a smile, saying, "I'm pregnant,how could I cope? So I'm counting on you."

A hint of a smile flashed in Damon's eyes, "You're willing to let go of the company?"

"Why not? I can't be running around like a headless chicken now, I need to ensure the babies’health, they're obviously more important compared to the company."

Damon raised an eyebrow, didn't wait for Chloe to take off his jacket, scooped her up and placedher on the counter.

Chloe gasped, her hand resting on Damon's shoulder, looking at the man closing in. She slightlylowered her chin, her gaze locked onto the man's brown eyes, his deep voice slowly filling the air."The babies come first, right?"

The corners of Chloe's mouth rose, forming a beautiful curve. "You matter too."

That sounded a bit insincere.

Damon hummed, "I matter too, so you're dumping the heavy task of managing the company onme?"

"But you're the daddy, you gotta feed us. So sorry for the trouble, daddy."

Damon's gaze wavered, he leaned in, their foreheads touching. "Is there a reward?"

Chloe thought for a bit, then gently kissed him.

Damon tugged his lip, his voice husky and deep. "Is that all?"

Chloe thought again, then gave him another peck.

Damon raised an eyebrow, "Hmm?"

"Still not enough?" As she was about to kiss him again, she suddenly stopped, leaving Damonhanging.

Chloe couldn't help biting her lip, with a victorious grin on her face.

The corners of her eyes raised, mischievous and cute.

Something stirred in Damon's heart, his hand on her waist tightened, his voice low and affectionate."Being naughty?"

Chloe immediately sensed danger, quickly dropped her smile, shook her head, and said earnestly,"No."

Damon chuckled, his finger gently stroking her soft cheek, his low voice lazy and affectionate."You're seducing me."

Chloe looked at this handsome man so close to her, her cheeks slowly turning red. Who would'vethought this usually aloof, arrogant man would one day charm a woman in sucha captivating way.And how intense he was at that moment.

Perhaps thinking of some things she shouldn't, Chloe's face suddenly flushed.

Damon's eyes slowly narrowed, and he stopped caressing her cheek, his slender middle fingergently lifting her beautiful chin.

"What are you thinking about?"

Chloe's eyes trembled, her evasive gaze completely like someone who got caught red-handed.

Damon smirked, and spoke again, "Are you imagining certain scenes?"

Chloe blinked quickly, "What scenes?!"

Damon ignored her nervousness, and continued with a smile, "Scenes of doing things that makeboth of us happy."

Chloe's face turned so red she couldn't look directly at him, her voice soft due to shyness, like abird's low chirping. "I didn't."
