Chloe’s heart started racing like a horse out of the gate. She looked towards the parked car at theentrance.
The sheer opulence of the car made her immediately think of the man inside. He was as elegantand noble as his ride.
Pushing down her excitement, she bent down to pick up a box but found Nate had already beatenher to it. He stepped aside, courteously letting Chloe lead the way.
As she approached the car, the door swung open before Nate could even reach for the handle.
Chloe ducked into the car, leaving the onlookers dumbstruck. Through the gap, they could see theman inside lightly patting Chloe’s thigh, his cufflink glittering with expensive diamonds.
The door closed, leaving the crowd outside in the dark. Nate slipped into the car, closed theumbrella, and they were off in a jiffy.
Everything was so smooth and natural. Not a hair out of place.
However, most people at the entrance were still trying to process what had just happened.
‘No wonder she didn’t want to ride with Mr. Olson”
“She didn’t even think his car was good enough”
“Whose car was that just now? Who was the man inside? Did you see that diamond cufflink? Mustbe worth a fortune!”
Inside the car, Damon took Chloe’s hand, looking at her and said,
‘Congrats
Chloe flashed a light smile, “Thanks, the international competition is a month away I can take abreath now”
Damon kept quiet for a while then slowly asked, “You could’ve beaten Keira, why didn’t you?”
Chloe sighed, leaned her head against Damon’s shoulder, and chuckled, “Don’t worry I’m not goingsoft. I’m just playing the long game! Keira said she would embarrass me in front of the world. I’llgive her a taste of her own medicine. Besides, if I had knocked her down this time, then her pastplagiarism couldn’t be exposed!”
Interest flickered in Damon’s eyes, “So it can be resolved later?”
Chloe’s eyes lit up with triumph as she pulled out a small recorder from her pocket, “This little thingis quite handy when dealing with such
snakes!”
Damon glanced at the device in her hand, a slight squint in his eyes. He took her hand, his voicelow yet gentle, “What did she say?”
“Do you want me to play it for you?” Chloe asked.
“No need. I can’t stand her voice. Did she explicitly admit that she plagiarised your work six yearsago?” Damon said. “Yes.” Chloe said.
A low chuckle rumbled from Damon’s throat. Chloe felt a tingle down her spine at the sound.
She swallowed hard, looking up at him, her voice barely above a whisper, “What are you laughingat?”
“Isn’t it something to be happy about?” Damon asked.
Oh, indeed it was a joyous moment!
But having known Damon for so long, Chloe seemed to understand the real cause of hishappiness.
She moistened her lips, paused for a moment, and then asked, “Damon, how are you planning tocelebrate your birthday? Are you hosting a public birthday party, or spending the day with yourgrandma? What about your grandpa? Your parents? And Nathan, will they be back?”
Damon pondered for a moment, his eyes filled with complex emotions,
“I won’t be throwing a birthday party. They are all in Hong Kong. I don’t know where Nathan is. Imight spend my birthday with my grandma.”
“Why is your grandma alone here? Is she not getting along with your grandpa? Chloe asked.
Seeing Chloe’s cautious expression, Damon smiled slightly. “No, they have a very goodrelationship”
Chloe let out a sigh of relief, ‘Oh, I see”
“So, you’re planning to give me a birthday surprise, right?” Damon asked.
