Chapter 1191
“What’s up?”
His voice was a low growl with a hint of huskiness. He poured himself a glass of ice water and took a couple of sips
as he spoke. Nate could tell that Damon was gradually recovering from his dazed state. This confirmed Nate’s
suspicions that Damon had just crawled out of Chloe’s embrace and was still slightly out of it.
The glass of ice water seemed to have a similar effect as a cold shower. Nate couldn’t help but think of this.
What the hell was he thinking?! Damon’s charm was just too overpowering.
His words met with no response, Damon raised an eyebrow and leaned back on the couch, watching Nate. The look
in his eyes sent chills down Nate’s spine. “Mr. Harper, Ms. Wendy went home, but she started running a fever not
long after she left. Presley called in a medical team. She has a high fever caused by an infected wound and is
currently being treated.”
Damon took another sip of water, a small smile appearing on his face at Nate’s report. “Alright.”
There was a moment of silence before Nate spoke up again, “I’ll get going now.”
“Assign more people to protect Chloe.”
Nate immediately replied, “Alright.”
Elizabeth was staying and didn’t want to leave, so Royce decided to stay as well. It wasn’t until dinner time that
Chloe crawled out of bed and came downstairs.
Seeing Chloe’s appearance, a smirk flashed across Elizabeth’s face. “You must have had a good nap this afternoon,
why do you look so tired?” Chloe was startled by her words and couldn’t help but blush.

doing in her bedroom that afternoon. After a moment’s thought, she came up with a seemingly safe excuse,
“watching a movie in bed.”
“A movie?” Elizabeth chuckled, “What were you watching?”
What movie? An porno.
Only an idiot would say that out loud.
“Debt Collection.” Damon shoved a fork and knife into Chloe’s hands as he spoke.
“Debt Collection?” Elizabeth looked puzzled.
“Yep. We were watching it together.”
Elizabeth scoffed dismissively, “Just hearing the title makes me not want to watch it.”
Chloe took a bite of her food, her head bowed as she chewed. Her ears were practically glowing red.
Debt collection? Sounded about right! She did bite him a couple of times, after all. And she definitely paid for it.
The next day at noon, Chloe went to the airport to pick up Rose. Her car led the way with three sedans trailing
behind. All the way to the airport, a dozen bodyguards in black suits followed her.
She couldn’t refuse, the sudden incident in West Valley a few days ago had been surprising and frightening enough
for her, let alone for Damon. As for him arranging bodyguards for her, she could understand.
But… Wasn’t it a bit too much?
Chloe sighed, ignoring their presence and walked ahead expressionlessly. Even with sunglasses on, she was still
recognized by some.
“Who’s that? Are those people in black her bodyguards? Why is it so over the top?”
“I think I’ve seen her somewhere before. Isn’t that Ms. Summers from Starlight International?”
“I heard she’s getting engaged. I wonder who the lucky guy is?”
“Stop guessing who her fiancé is, it’s old news! It’s either someone filthy rich or a young entrepreneur. Whoever it
is, it doesn’t matter, she’s getting engaged anyway.”
‘It’s impressive for a woman to reach her position. She’s got money, looks, and a great figure, even if her husband
doesn’t make a dime, it’s all good.”
At that moment, a woman in a black leather coat was watching her through her dark red sunglasses, her gaze filled
with sternness and disgust. The intensity of her stare made the usually silent Chloe uneasy. When Chloe looked her
way, the woman was startled and quickly averted her gaze, adjusting her sunglasses as she walked haughtily
toward the exit.
Chloe looked around the crowd but only saw people moving about. Not long after, she heard the announcement of
Rose’s plane landing safely.
“Chloe!”
About ten minutes later, Chloe heard a familiar voice. She looked up to see Rose, dressed in a long dress and a long
cotton coat, walking towards her.
Her bodyguards immediately reacted but were stopped by Chloe.
The two women embraced at the railing. Chloe took off her sunglasses and studied Rose’s face carefully. Seeing
that Rose didn’t look too bad and hadn’t
lost any weight, Chloe smiled.
“You haven’t lost any weight.”

“Of course I haven’t. I can’t let my baby go hungry.”
Chloe smiled reassuringly, “Are you hungry? What do you feel like eating?”
“I could eat anything. Shall we go to a restaurant?”
Chloe disagreed. “Restaurants might not be clean. Let’s go to the supermarket, buy some ingredients, and I’ll cook
for you.”
“Okay.”
On the way, Rose had a lot to talk about. Chloe just listened, answering whatever Rose asked. She actually wanted
to ask Rose many things about her relationship with Morrison. She wanted to know what Rose had been through
these past few days. But she knew that Rose was talking non stop to avoid any of her questions.
At the supermarket, Rose seemed to have a good appetite and wanted to eat a lot of things. They bought a lot of
food. When they were checking out, Rose noticed a box on the shelf, picked one up, and waved it in front of Chloe.
“Do you want a box?”
Chloe took a glance but didn’t really see it clearly. She took it from Rose and had a closer look. The packaging had
the brand “Durex” on it. “What’s this?”
Rose looked at her in surprise. “You really don’t know what this is?”
“…Do I need to know?”
Rose gave her a two–second glance, a mischievous grin suddenly flashing across her face. She nudged her with her
shoulder, gave her a wink, and said, “What’s with the innocent act? Don’t tell me you’ve never used this with Mr.
Harper‘
