The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1191

"What's up?"

His voice was a low growl with a hint of huskiness. He poured himself a glass of ice water and took a couple of sips as he spoke. Nate could tell that Damon was gradually recovering from his dazed state. This confirmed Nate's suspicions that Damon had just crawled out of Chloe’s embrace and was still slightly out of it.

The glass of ice water seemed to have a similar effect as a cold shower. Nate couldn't help but think of this.

What the hell was he thinking?! Damon's charm was just too overpowering.

His words met with no response, Damon raised an eyebrow and leaned back on the couch, watching Nate. The look in his eyes sent chills down Nate's spine. "Mr. Harper, Ms. Wendy went home, but she started running a fever not long after she left. Presley called in a medical team. She has a high fever caused by an infected wound and is currently being treated."

Damon took another sip of water, a small smile appearing on his face at Nate's report. "Alright."

There was a moment of silence before Nate spoke up again, "I'll get going now."

"Assign more people to protect Chloe."

Nate immediately replied, "Alright."

Elizabeth was staying and didn't want to leave, so Royce decided to stay as well. It wasn't until dinner time that Chloe crawled out of bed and came downstairs.

Seeing Chloe's appearance, a smirk flashed across Elizabeth's face. "You must have had a good nap this afternoon, why do you look so tired?"

Chloe was startled by her words and couldn't help but blush.

"I was just..." She was trying to come up with an excuse but couldn't think of anything she could possibly have been doing in her bedroom that afternoon. After a moment's thought, she came up with a seemingly safe excuse, "watching a movie in bed."

"A movie?" Elizabeth chuckled, "What were you watching?"

What movie? An porno.

Only an idiot would say that out loud.

"Debt Collection." Damon shoved a fork and knife into Chloe's hands as he spoke.

"Debt Collection?" Elizabeth looked puzzled.

"Yep. We were watching it together."

Elizabeth scoffed dismissively, "Just hearing the title makes me not want to watch it."

Chloe took a bite of her food, her head bowed as she chewed. Her ears were practically glowing red.

Debt collection? Sounded about right! She did bite him a couple of times, after all. And she definitely paid for it.

The next day at noon, Chloe went to the airport to pick up Rose. Her car led the way with three sedans trailing behind. All the way to the airport, a dozen bodyguards in black suits followed her.

She couldn't refuse, the sudden incident in West Valley a few days ago had been surprising and frightening enough for her, let alone for Damon. As for him arranging bodyguards for her, she could understand.

But... Wasn't it a bit too much?
