"It's okay now."
Images still swarmed Chloe's mind. Her complexion hadn't regained its color, and her body shivered uncontrollably. The thoughts in her mind would occasionally make her shudder violently. Quickly, she clung to the front of Damon's shirt. Her face buried deep into his chest.
Damon's expression was chillingly cold, but right now, he just held her tightly, rubbing her shoulders, trying to calm her down.
"It's okay, Chloe. I'm fine now."
Chloe opened her eyes, silent in his arms for a while, before slowly lifting her head, her hand reaching up to touch Damon's handsome face. Her hand was ice cold, covered in cold sweat. Her trembling fingertips slowly rubbed the face under her palm, her fearful eyes trembling slightly. Perhaps it was the warmth from his skin or the reality of the touch, her expression gradually returned to normal, and her eyes cleared. But the tears on her face flowed more fiercely. The emotions of grievance and fear were still there.
Her fingers rubbed the spot where he had just been hit, adding a touch of guilt and pity.d2
"Don't do this. Please don't." Her voice choked, the tears flowed even more. "My heart, it's about to break."
She truthfully described the feelings of that moment, admitting that she was truly close to being scared to death.
"What if something had happened, how could I face your parents? They would hate me forever... their favorite son..."
Her words stopped again, she shook her head, continuing, "No. I can't. I can't imagine anything happening to you. I can't imagine a world without you. Damon, how could you..."
Chloe's heart ached, almost suffocating.
In the past, he had given her enough affection; she had never experienced what it was like to have a heart-wrenching pain.
The coldness of the Summers family wouldn't affect her like this. As for Lance's betrayal, after feeling regret and a brief loneliness, she let go resolutely.
All, absolutely everything, in comparison to the present moment and that split second just now, felt utterly insignificant.
Damon took her hand and placed a kiss on it near his lips. A deep, husky voice sounded from above her head, "Do you think I could just stand by and watch something happen to you?"
She didn't want to, because she knew he couldn't. He would feel guilty, he would suffer, he would doubt himself, and even in the future, she would become a knot in his heart that he could never untie. At that moment, she finally understood that the two of them, neither one could live well without the other.
She thoroughly understoond and accepted the phrase Vitality Alliance.
She quietly looked at Damon, her expression gradually calming down. "It's okay, as long as you're okay."
She herself was stuck in a vicious cycle with this accident, and there was no point in pursuing it further. She slowly lowered her hand and, feeling somewhat drained, buried her face in his embrace.
"It's okay, as long as you're okay."
Damon comforted her, looking at the fog rising in the dark night ahead. His dark eyes were icy cold.
"Come out." Nate's voice suddenly rang out, the driver who had been hiding in the car had been pulled out by Nate with one hand, and was directly thrown to the ground.
