Chloe instantly held her breath.
"You...are you serious?"
Damon frowned, "They bullied you and took advantage of your body. They should be punished accordingly. It's only fair."
Chloe sat in silence for a while before she finally asked again,
"You really had someone beat those guys up?"
"Yes."
Although he said it simply, his attitude made it believable.
Chloe took a deep breath, leaned forward, and moved closer to Damon over the dinner table, looking at him cautiously before she could confirm again,
"Including...that guy from B City?"
Damon paused and looked up at her. He shook his head and said, "I didn't beat him up."
Chloe's expression immediately softened. She sat up straight, looking down at her intertwined fingers.
She felt relieved.
Apart from that guy, everyone else deserved the punishment.
Damon looked down at the plate in front of him and then spoke in a pleasant voice,
"I've already warned them. Later on, I'll personally go to B City to settle this issue!"
"What?"
Chloe suddenly stiffened, and she looked up at Damon with wide eyes.
"You sent a warning? And you're going to handle it personally?"
"Yes. Don't worry. I won't let any of those bullies off the hook."
Chloe quickly shook her head after a brief pause, "No, that’s not what happened. It was a misunderstanding between him and me. Actually, at that time..."
"He held you inappropriately."
It was the kind of hug that had her lying in his arms horizontally.
Unacceptable.
"Actually, I wasn't feeling well at that time..."
"He held you."
"His wife was there too..."
"He held you."
