Chapter 278
“You might be surprised, but Damon is on his way, and he’s not coming alone!”
Everyone was curious, Who’s coming with him”
Whoever was accompanying Damon must be someone of great importance
Upon hearing this, the usually haughty Kane instantly calmed down.
“How would I know who it is? But I can tell you for sure, it’s a woman
‘A woman?
“A woman?”
Really.
Tve never met Damon, but I heard he notoriously dislikes women. How could he possibly bring a woman?”
Kane waved his hand, “If you don’t believe it, just wait and see We’ll find out soon enough.”
“No more betting“” someone joked.
Kane’s face turned gloomy. Recalling the last time he called Seth “Daddy“, he was so angry that he couldn’t sleep well for a week
Betting on Damon again?
Though he was pretty sure he just heard a woman’s voice, he no longer trusted Damon’s words.
Last time, he was certain Damon would come, but he was fooled!
Seth easily got the better of him!
Maybe this time he could turn the tables.
He glanced at Seth, asking. “Wanna bet?”
Seth held a cigarette between his fingers, a faint blue flame flickering on the tip. He exhaled a wisp of pale smoke, lazily floating before his eyes.
He was calm and elegant, both relaxed and casual.
His gaze swept over Kane, a smile tugging at the corner of his mouth, “Are you sure?”
Kane was used to Seth’s indifferent demeanor, always appearing calm and gentle on the surface but full of cunning underneath.
His question made Kane tense up, eventually waving off, “Nah, no more bets, it’s boring.”
Seth chuckled softly. “Is that so? Don’t regret it then.”
On the way to the Stardust Soiree, Chloe hung up on several calls.
“Is it Lance?”
Chloe glanced at Damon, nodding her head, “Yeah.”
Then, her phone rang again.
This time it was text messages.
Lance: “Chloe, where are you? I’ve been waiting for you outside your building for a while, why aren’t you home yet?”
Lance: “Why aren’t you home so late, I’m worried about you.”
Lance: “Chloe, can you answer the phone? I want to talk to you.”
Having eaten quite a bit tonight, plus Lance’s several calls and these text messages, Chloe’s already not–so–good stomach suddenly felt uncomfortable. She took a deep breath and turned off her phone, putting it into her bag.
“What’s wrong?”
“Nothing, I think he’s upset because his girlfriend got slighted today. He probably wants to pick a fight with me.”
“Bugging you?”
Damon’s tone suddenly became cold and dangerous.
“Let him come.”
Chloe looked at him, his obvious provocative attitude made her burst out laughing.
“What are you laughing at?”
Damon didn’t look pleased.
He dared to bother his woman?
“He’s not worth your time.”
“Anyone who bullies you is worth a beating from me.
