Five minutes later, Chloe was back to her room.
Seeing Damon, and remembering the violent and bloody scene just now, she was a bit scared to face Damon.
"Just now..."
"It was nothing, I thought you wouldn't be scared."
Chloe said, "Murder comes with a price, and I don't want to pay with my life for someone like this."
And then recalling what Damon had just said, she advised him somewhat anxiously, "You can't kill people, you got it? Especially you, it's totally not worth it to pay with your life!"
Damon counter-asked, "What's your plan now?"
As Chloe cleaned up the room, she said:
"When Keira suddenly stopped playing at the party tonight, aside from embarrassing me, her real aim was to make me lose my cool, deny, explain, get angry. The stronger my reaction, the more she could embarrass me!"
Damon listened quietly.
"I have to say, with the experience from the previous times, today Keira really had everything carefully arranged. She wanted to trap me into sleeping with Chase, to confirm that I seduced Chase that year. I would inevitably be upset under public pressure. Then she would completely beat me..."
Just as she was speaking, a door closing sound came from the room opposite.
Chloe turned to Damon and laughed:
"But I was thinking, if Keira can't find her accomplice tonight, will she do it herself? After all, tonight's chance is really too good to miss. Do you want to watch the show Keira has set up tonight?"
Damon just looked at her, not saying a word.
Chloe smiled, walked up to him and reached out her hand, "Can I borrow your phone?"
