Chapter 844
He was filled with quilt and regret Pulling Chloe into his arms, he gently rested his head on her forehead
“I’m sorry it’s all my fault”
He leaned down to kiss her quivering eyelashes, her eyelids, her cheeks, and finally her lips It was as if he was desperate to prove something to eam her forgiveness
Chloe let him do so, but gave no response She had no idea how to handle the situation
“I messed up You have every right to be angry You can hit me, okay? Just let it all out”
Chloe stayed silent for a while before finally speaking
“People say I’m too smart
They were so close that when Chloe looked up, he could see the helplessness in her eyes.
“So how could I be mad at you? I trust you and I know you did all this to fulfill your grandfather’s task. You were just trying to protect me. I know that.”
She wished she wasn’t so smart that she couldn’t see through everything But she knew everything, so even when he lied, she didn’t have the right to be angry.
For the first time. Damon was at a loss Whether she made a fuss or not, it didn’t feel right. He was the one who put her in this difficult situation.
“Im sorry Chloe” He didn’t know what else to say
It took Chloe a while to finally speak up
“Damon, remember when you said you loved me?”
He remembered her asking him to say that he loved her the night before. It seemed she had her reasons.
He nodded remember I love you”
Chloe squinted her eyes, took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled.
“I can handle it”
Just that simple sentence made Damon freeze for a moment.
Chloe looked up and gave Damon a faint smile.
“I can handle the love you give me, and the danger and pain that come with it.”
Damon’s eyes widened in alarm, his heart deeply shaken.
“Chloe”
Chloe put her fingers over his lips, shaking her head gently.
“Let me finish.” She paused and said calmly,
“If I’m only accepting your feelings, I won’t feel secure. You could leave me at any time for any reason, and I can’t keep you tied to me forever. So the only thing I can do is to return your feelings, even more so, to keep you always thinking of me, to make you unable to leave me in this lifetime..
“From the moment I chose to be with you, I never thought of backing down. I knew from the start, with my status, it wouldn’t be easy to be part of the Harper family. Not only could the elder Harpers oppose, but you… might oppose
too”
Damon’s eyes flickered, not denying Chloe’s words, just looking at her, his voice hoarse.
“From the start?”
Chloe nodded. “When I found out you were Damon. When I met Grandma.”
She shifted her gaze to the beautiful night view outside the car window. “Your grandpa must cares a lot about Grandma, so he let her live alone in P City…
Damon’s hand tightened, his lips pressed together. As Chloe spoke, she suddenly laughed, gently stroking her hair.
“Because he cares about her, he couldn’t let her stay by his side. He was afraid someone would hurt her, or use her to influence his decisions.”
She turned her gaze from the window back to Damon, looking him straight in the eye. And then she slowly said one word –
“Weakness.”
Damon’s eyes trembled.
“This is probably what all of you heirs of big families want to avoid… You never drink too much, and your food tastes are not singular. You’re not obsessed with anything. You don’t let people see your preferences… These habits aren’t formed overnight. You grew up in this environment, so how could you make the most fatal mistake now? You love me, so what you have to do is hide this ‘weakness and protect me to the fullest.”
Damon was shocked. She knew everything from the start. He knew she was smart, but he didn’t expect her to know so much while keeping quiet.
Chloe looked at his reaction and gave a small, calm smile.
“But, Damon, I love you. I can be your weakness, but I can also be your protection.”
She was his weakness and his protection.
Damon had never imagined that a woman would tell him something like this. She even wanted to protect him…
What kind of woman had he found? Such a unique woman, actually belonged to him.
Damon couldn’t put into words the shock Chloe gave him tonight. All he could do was hold her tight, wishing he could meld her into his body. Damon kissed her passionately, his strong arms almost crushing her.
Chice felt a slight pain but endured his almost frenzied kiss. His tongue gently pried open her teeth, going deep into her mouth, entwining with her tongue…
The air in the car heated up, their short, heavy breaths echoing in the car. Damon’s rationality gradually returned, and the kiss became gentler, his hold on her loosened.
“What am I supposed to do…”
She was too smart, too honest, and too good. She was really great, and he didn’t know how to love her.
He seemed to have everything, money, power, fame… But these weren’t what she wanted.
What did it matter how much wealth he had…
Chloe’s eyes had a captivating glow, her lips so attractive after being kissed, panting lightly.
“You don’t have to do anything just love me and trust me like before. Don’t ever give up on me. That’s enough.”
Damon gave a bitter smile, gently touching her forehead, and whispered,
“How could I ever give you up?”
Chloe gave a small smile. “Then you have to hold on to me tight, don’t let anyone steal me away I have a lot of suitors now.”
There is noticeably a bundle to find out about this. I assume you made certain good factors in options also.
