Every time the thought of her suitors came to Damon's mind, his brows furrowed slightly. Indeed, she had quite a lot of admirers.
Looking at his deep-in-thought face, Chloe raised an eyebrow, "What, feeling the pressure already?"
Damon gently brushed her hair and gently planted a kiss on her forehead.
"Yes, you're so awesome. I'm sure a lot of guys are head over heels for you."
He lightly kissed her lips, his eyes full of passion for her.
"I wish I could hide you away, so no one else could lay their eyes on you."
Chloe blinked her long lashes, resting her head against his forehead, silently keeping him company.
"Damon, how much of grandpa's illness do you think is real, and how much is fake?" she asked after a long while.
Damon gently kissed her lips and finally let her go.
"Probably half and half."
Chloe pursed her lips, sitting calmly in her seat, gazing out the window at the night scene, slowly speaking, "So, can I take it as his illness is not serious, or even not a big deal at the moment, but he's still dragging it out just to keep you here?"
Damon smiled slightly, "You could say that. As for the reason, I haven't thought about it."
Chloe gave him a deep look, "Haven't thought about it, or don't want to accept the conclusion?"
Damon leaned in again, buckling her seatbelt, his voice calm and composed.
"Whatever he wants to do, it won't affect me in any way."
Chloe nodded, suddenly saying, "I want to see grandpa tomorrow."
Damon's fingers paused, looking at Chloe's serious and solemn expression, after a moment, he nodded. "Alright."
Presley nearly fainted again when he heard about what had happened at the banquet last night.
Early in the morning the next day, Nathan came to Damon's place, seeing Chloe and Damon having a leisurely breakfast.
He wasn’t planning on being polite either, picked up a sandwich, and started munching away. Damon gave him a glance, noting the faint bruises on his face. Thankfully Nathan was strong, and used to getting punched by Damon since they were kids.
