Chapter 56
Both of them didn’t eat much, so they soon stopped eating.
“Are you really full or you don’t like the food?”
Chloe asked, finding it hard to believe that a big guy like him could eat so little.
“I’m full.”
“Alright. Go chill on the couch. I’ll clean up.”
“Yeah.”
Cleaning up after the two of them didn’t take long. In about ten minutes, she had the kitchen spotless.
By the time she came out, Damon was lounging on the sofa, watching TV.
She didn’t know what he was watching, but the serious look on his face was easy to spot.
Curious, she moved closer. As soon as she saw what was on the TV, her face turned serious too.
A live news broadcast was on, with a backdrop of the front door of Olson Tower. Several media outlets were gathered, surrounding the sweet–smiling Keira. Standing next to Keira was the stern–faced president of the Olson Group, Lance.
“Keira, is it true that you’re Rosanna who came in fourth in the International Perfumer competition held by F Country last year?”
“Just fourth place, it’s nothing to fuss about
Hearing Keira’s indirect confirmation, the media got a bit excited.

“Mr. Olson, you just announced that Miss Keira will be the lead perfumer of the Olson Group. What about Chloe? What would she think about being replaced?”
“Is it true that she has resigned from the Olson Group?”
“Everyone knows there has been some bad blood between Chloe and Keira. Rumor has it that Chloe was disqualified from a design competition because she stole Keira’s perfume formula and got exposed. She was permanently expelled from her school. Some say this was a misunderstanding! Does your recent move confirm that Chloe really did plagiarize?”
Facing the media’s increasingly sharp questions, Lance’s expression grew colder.
But what was more terrifying than Lance’s cold expression was Damon’s face as he sat on Chloe’s sofa.
His face was particularly dark. He turned to look at Chloe, his eyebrows slightly furrowed.
“Did you really resign today, or were you kicked out and replaced?”
Chloe frowned, “…Of course I resigned.”
She didn’t expect Lance to make such a decision today.
Damon frowned, silent for a while. He stood up and walked over to Chloe, looking down at her.
“That’s good. But… what did the reporter mean? Did you really plagiarize that woman’s perfume formula?”
Woman?
In his mouth, Keira was just some woman?
That wasn’t the point, but Damon’s words made Chloe feel tense.
She stared at him for a long time, her hands clenched tightly, and slowly said:
“…If I say I didn’t, would you believe me?”
“You say it, and I’ll believe it.” Damon replied without hesitation, making Chloe’s eyes widen.
*…I didn’t plagiarize her.”
“Good, I got it.”
Damon nodded without hesitation and was about to leave.
Chloe had a bad feeling and quickly grabbed his hand.
