Kane suddenly felt a chill down his spine.
"Kane, go fetch some garlic from the kitchen," Damon's voice calmly echoed.
"Garlic?" Kane asked, puzzled. "Why garlic?"
"Just go get it," Damon's voice suddenly turned stern.
"Alright!"
Chloe also asked in confusion, "Why does he need to fetch garlic?"
Damon didn't answer but shoved a peeled lychee into Chloe's mouth instead.
Ten minutes later...
"Damon, I've brought the garlic!"
"Good. You eat it."
Kane was stunned, "...What?"
"Eat it," Damon said nonchalantly.
"Why? I don't want to! I'll reek of garlic, how am I supposed to face people?"
Damon didn't respond, but Danielle suddenly chuckled softly.
"So, Mr. Ziems, maybe you should think twice before trying to give someone mouth-to-mouth resuscitation next time."
Kane finally got it.
It was because he had almost given Chloe mouth-to-mouth resuscitation!
That was a bit much...
Chloe couldn't help but laugh, noticing Kane's pleading look.
Hmm...
He did save her life, was this a bit too harsh on him?
She gently tugged at Damon's clothes, "Damon..."
Understanding her intention, Damon said, "Fine... just eat one clove then."
-
Watching Kane painfully munch on two cloves of garlic, Chloe walked over to Damon and said, "I'm going to the restroom."
Damon put down his wine glass, "I'll go with you."
