The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 5

Damon held the frail woman in his arms tightly, his long eyebrows slightly furrowed.

He intended to look down at the woman in his arms, but his chin bumped into the top of her head.

Her hair brushed lightly against his chin, tickling him.

He averted his gaze, falling on her slender, delicate neck. Her oversized hospital gown allowed him to see the skin beneath her clothing.

His gaze gradually deepened, but the woman in his arms suddenly stirred, a sweet scent wafting from her collar and directly hitting his nostrils.

He was taken aback for a moment.

Chloe shifted again, feeling the numbness in her legs subsiding, and then she said in a low voice,

"Thanks. I'm fine now."

Damon’s heart skipped a beat, but still gently released her.

Seeing that she had steadied herself, he then withdrew his hand.

"Are you okay?" he asked.

Chloe blushed slightly and nodded,

"I'm fine. Sorry, my legs were a bit numb just now."

Damon smiled, "I know, no need to explain."

Such a simple sentence left Chloe somewhat stunned, feeling a bit bitter inside, but her expression remained unchanged.

"Thank you," she said.

The old lady was startled by the previous scene, but seeing the interaction between the two now, her eyes were filled with satisfaction and joy.

It seemed that her grandson wasn't emotionless after all.

Damon just smiled faintly.

Chloe stood there for a while, recalling what Lance had said earlier, she turned to the old lady and said,

"Ma'am, I have some things to handle now. Which room are you in? I'll come to keep you company after I'm done."

"Over there! See that door? You can come in from here next time."

The old lady paused, a crafty gleam in her eyes.

"Let's exchange phone numbers. Oh, I didn't bring my phone." The old lady said.
