"Alright, dessert's finished, I gotta bounce. Had to cancel a meeting just to make it here."
Damon knew how busy she was, so he had to let her go, even if he didn't want to.
The office door swung open again. The secretary got up. Chloe, walked out blushing. The secretary stared at her swollen lips for a while before instinctively bowing to her.
Chloe gave her a quick glance, biting her lip in embarrassment as she headed towards the elevator.
Damon returned to his office, ready to check up on the latest online news on his phone. He saw that almost all comments were speculating on who Chloe's fiancé was.
Most guessed Claud, followed by Kane, Seth, Noah, and even Lance!
Damon's face fell immediately. He grabbed his phone and dialed Kane.
"Hello... Damon?"
"You and Chloe..."
"There's nothing going on between Chloe and me! Damon, you can't believe everything you read on the internet! And even if you don't trust me, at least trust Chloe! How could she possibly be into me?"
"She definitely wouldn't be into you!" Damon's voice was clearly angry.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah. Chloe only loves you! No matter what happens, she'll always love you!"
Taking advantage of Damon's silence, Kane swiftly hung up. Then he went online and responded to netizens' comments with his real account, "Not me."
Having saved his own skin, he thought about calling Seth and Noah to give them a heads up, only to find out they had already cleared things up online.
Seth, "Not me."
Noah, "Not me. Wish them happiness."
"Humph, they didn't even give me a heads up!" Kane slammed his phone onto the table in frustration.
It wasn't long before he picked up his phone again, only to see there were even more netizens guessing it was Claud.
Claud even commented under Chloe's post, "I'll be there on time at the Emerald Palace!"
Kane's lips twitched, "He's got some guts!"
Meanwhile, Lance remained silent.
Back at the company, Chloe held the meeting she had previously cancelled. Having rushed out alone, she was of course tailed by reporters all the way to Damon’s office. Seeing that she had gone to the Harper Group had everyone a bit disappointed.
