"Let go of me!"
No way.
Damon didn't say anything. He just let her struggle while his long arm tightened his hold.
When she stopped struggling and finally lay still in his arms, feeling his warmth, Damon secretly let out a sigh of relief.
His voice was a bit husky but gentle and pleasant.
"I'm sorry."
His hand cradled the back of her head, and Chloe buried her face in his chest. Her whole body heaved as she panted from the struggle.
She couldn't see his expression
, but she could still hear a hint of restraint and caution in his gentle, deep voice.
Chloe waited for a while before she pushed him away.
Damon's eyes stared at her attentively, his hand still wrapped around her waist. She was trapped in his embrace, leaving her no chance to escape.
Chloe sat on the desk and explained calmly,
"I told you, Rose and I are just good friends. She was just being impulsive today...."
She glanced at the blank-faced man as she spoke, knowing he hadn't heard her clearly.
Chloe was a bit angry, "What are you thinking? Do I look like a lesbian? If I were, would I have agreed to be with you? Would I have let you kiss me?"
