Bryson finished saying, spinning his wheelchair around.
"Chloe." Damon frowned, hugging Chloe tightly, unwilling to let her go. Chloe looked up at him, blinked slightly, seeming a bit helpless.
"Chloe..." Yasmine called out to her. Chloe lowered her eyes, seemingly torn between staying and letting go, constantly gazing at Damon from his embrace.
Dressed in a white suit, he looked noble and handsome. His inherent noble temperament evoked admiration and awe. His arms were tightly wrapped around Chloe's slender waist, while her hands were gently placed on his chest.
They gazed at each other, their eyes filled with emotions. Together, they were a visual feast. Their good looks and indescribable aura made a perfect match.
"Alright. You two shouldn't see each other for a while," Yasmine's calm voice echoed again, full of authority.
People around shook their heads, and sympathetic eyes landed on the two tightly embraced figures. They were indeed pitiful, enduring one blow after another.
Damon looked down at Chloe. "The engagement party kinda went okay." Though not perfect, he was too preoccupied to care about anything else right now, only wanting to confirm one thing.
Chloe nodded. "Yes." Otherwise, her persistence tonight would have been in vain.
"Mm," Damon responded in a low voice. He lowered his head, resting it on Chloe’s forehead, and whispered, "Did you enjoy meeting your mom?"
Chloe nodded again. "Mm...Thank you."
Damon pursed his lips. "...But I'm not happy now. If I knew she was going to pull such a stunt, I should have delayed her appearance."
Chloe gave a small smile at Damon's grumpy tone, finding it amusing.
Did she know the feeling of having something snatched away just when it was within her grasp? Damon actually felt this way now. Especially when the one snatching his stuff was someone he had brought back.
"Enough, you two. You're not kids anymore, can't you act more mature in public?" Yasmine's icy voice echoed again, causing Chloe's eyelashes to flutter, her face showing a trace of worry.
Not seeing each other for a short period... How long exactly was this short period?
However, the crowd disagreed with Yasmine's words. They came tonight to enjoy the show. They were a visual feast together, extremely pleasant to the eye, worth watching over and over again. What was wrong with showing some affection? You guys should show even more affection right here!
Under Yasmine's repeated urging, Chloe finally left Damon's embrace.
Just as Yasmine approached, Chloe's hand was pulled into her palm. Her warm palm enclosed her warm hand, and Chloe suddenly felt the oppressive world brighten.
"Oh dear, why did you let her go?" A voice suddenly came from behind.
