He withdrew his hand from inside her clothes.
Chloe breathed a sigh of relief, sat up, and straightened her clothes. Her bra had been undone by Damon. Chloe fumbled with it behind her back for a while, but still couldn't fasten it.
"Let me help you."
Damon pulled Chloe into his arms, helping her buckle up her bra before letting go of her clothes. Chloe hooked the hair that was hanging in front of her behind her ears.
At this moment, a servant knocked on the room door.
"Mr. Harper, Mrs. Harper's dinner has arrived."
"Come in."
Damon responded, reaching out to adjust the blanket for Chloe.
The servant set the meal, then respectfully said to Damon as he was about to leave, "Mr. Harper, dinner in the main hall will begin soon."
"Got it."
The meal was very light, just the way Chloe liked it.
Damon sat by the bed, quietly accompanying her while eating, cutting fruits for her and putting them on the plate. By the time Chloe finished eating, the fruit plate was piled high.
"I can't eat anymore."
"Save it." Damon glanced at the time and stood up. "I'm going to check on the main hall. What do you want to do?"
Chloe practically threw off the blanket the moment Damon stood up.
"I haven’t breathed fresh air all day. I want to go out for a walk."
Damon made a stern face. "Don’t be ridiculous. You’ve just gotten a bit better. What if you get worse?"
Chloe looked disappointed. "It's really stuffy to stay in the room all day."
She turned her head to look out the window. Damon stared at her for a long time, sighed, and gave in again.
"You can't go anywhere else, just walk around in the yard."
"…Okay."
Before Damon left, he found a warm coat for Chloe. "Dress warmly when you go out. If you get sick again... I might as well have you hospitalized."
He spoke seriously, his handsome face looking very stern. But Chloe just smiled. "I got it. I won’t run around!"
Chloe stood by the window, watching Damon's figure leave. This cold and elegant man took care of her in unexpected ways.
Her eyes shifted, and under the dim light in the courtyard, she saw a pool in the corner.
A heated pool.
