Chapter 403
In the evening. Damon was having a video conference at the office, and Chloe had headed home earlier. She had a bite to eat and then took a bath
Dressed in a plain nightgown, she stepped out of the bedroom with her hair half dried, only to find Damon had already settled down on the couch with the TV on, tuned into a movie channel
Chloe paused for a moment, went to the kitchen, grabbed two bottles of water from the fridge. She then sat down next to him, handing him water, “Did you have dinner?”
Damon took the water, opened the cap, and handed it to her. He then took the water from her hand and took a couple of sips.
“Mhm.” He replied softly, pulling her into his arms
“How’s the competition prep going?” He asked.
“Not bad, no major issues” Chloe said
Damon let out a small sigh and handed her a bag from the side.
“What’s this? Chloe asked, perplexed.
“It’s the perfume your sister designed in her last international competition. She placed fourth. Don’t you want to see her true skills?” Damon said.
A flash of surprise crossed Chloe’s eyes as she opened the bag and said, “Many perfumers start producing and selling their award-winning perfumes right after the competition. But Keira didn’t sell this one through any channels. Besides the sample she made for the competition, there’s no finished product. How did you get this? Are
you sure this is”
Chloe opened the small bottle and took a sniff. Then she took a dropper, extracted a bit, waved it in the air, and sniffed it again.
After a two-second silence, a light flashed in her eyes.
Damon also caught a whiff of the perfume in the air.
“What’s up?” he asked, his voice low and soft.
Chloe capped the sample bottle without a word, looked up at Damon, and said with a smile. Tm sure. This is Keira’s work.”
“Huh?” Damon raised an eyebrow at her.
Chloe didn’t say anything, just kept smiling at him. Damon leaned down to give her a gentle kiss, “Tell me, can we use this chance to figure out the previous plagianism incident?
“We can” She answered without hesitation.
His gaze was soft, “Need me to do anything?”
Chloe shook her head instinctively, paused, and then nodded, “I need you.”
A teasing glint was in his eyes, his voice full of delight. He breathed in her post-bath scent and planted a soft kiss on her ear
“What do you need me to do?” he asked.
Chloe turned her head with a smile, leaned in close to his ear and whispered something
Damon chuckled softly “Good, but is that it?”
“That’s the most important thing! It’s all up to you now.” She said.
“Mhm, I promise I get the job done.” He answered.
