The phone kept ringing for a long time, and it wasn’t until Damon walked up behind her that she finally picked it up.
“Why did it take you so long to answer?”
As soon as the call connected, she heard Nick’s annoyed voice.
Chloe’s tone was cold, “What do you want?”
“Jeez, can’t I just call you when there’s nothing up?”
The living room was very quiet, and Nick’s voice was loud and clear. Chloe couldn’t help but move the phone slightly away from her ear, glancing at Damon, who was glaring at her, and
then turned her back.
“If there’s nothing, I’m hanging up”
“Come home tomorrow!” Nick demanded.
“Why?” Chloe scoffed, knowing full well why
Today, she slapped Keira at New World Plaza and smashed her car. She knew Keira would definitely go home and cry about it.
The Summers family loved to settle scores later, and she had completely gotten used to it.
This time, she knew they naturally wanted to get justice for Keira.
“We’ll talk more when you come back!” Nick said impatiently.
She thought the call would end there, but Nick added, “Your grandpa misses you. Think about how long it’s been since you last saw him!”
Chloe wasn’t planning on going back, but Nick’s last sentence weighed heavily on her heart.
Grandpa…
The only person she cared about in the Summers family was her grandpa.
When she was young, her grandpa doted on her. She would act spoiled in his arms, sit on his shoulders, fly kites, and fish with him, and he even braided her hair, even though it wasn’t
pretty.
She wasn’t a heartless person. And after all these years, the only one who might still care about her was her grandpa. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
She had to go see him, it had been a long time since she last saw him, maybe half a year.
After hanging up, Chloe pressed the cold phone to her forehead and took a deep breath.
Turning around, she looked at Damon, who was still in the living room, and said
“I might have to go back to my family tomorrow.”
“I’ll have someone take you.”
Chloe nodded. From here to her family, she indeed needed someone to take her.
“Do
you
want to go for a walk?” Damon asked, looking at her. “It’s good to get some exercise after dinner.” “Sure. The environment here was nice, so going for a walk after dinner was a good choice.
There was a big temperature difference in early spring. It was warm during the day, but chilly at night. Damon grabbed a suit jacket before going out and draped it over Chloe’s shoulders as they left.
Chloe looked at him and felt a warmth inside.
She tightened the jacket around her and discovered that his scent was really nice.
A faint, cool fragrance, she pictured Damon’s unique scent in her mind.
“What are you thinking about?” Damon asked.
“Your scent.”
Chloe answered without hesitation, and Damon’s steps gradually slowed.
Chloe turned to face him, and her face slightly flushed, “What I mean is… in this world, what kind of scent could match you?”
A hint of amusement flickered in Damon’s eyes, “Are you planning to customize a perfume for me?”
“Would you use it?”
“Of course. I’d want it to be one of a kind.”
