Chapter 995

Nate answered casually, “Ah well, they might be arguing…”

The secretary shook the head, “Doesn’t seem like it. The woman’s voice is loud and clear. If she wasn’t right next to the phone, we wouldn’t hear her so clearly…

“Maybe… their chit–chat escalated into a full–blown argument…”

The secretary gave him a sidelong glance, “Nate, you can’t fool me that easily…”

The call ended. Damon had both his hands on either side of Chloe, his handsome face staring at her, a commanding presence.

“Who are you picking up at the airport?”

“Katie and Miles.”

Chloe said softly, starting to button up Damon’s shirt for him.

Without saying much, Damon picked up the phone again. Not long after, he announced, “Heading to the airport to pick up Katie.” Chloe paused in the middle of buttoning his shirt, looking up at Damon. But Damon quickly ended the call and before she could react, he had lifted her up into his arms.

She instinctively clung to his shoulders. “What… are you doing?”

Damon gave her a faint smile and leaned in to kiss her. “We’re alone here. What else could I be doing?”

Chloe’s face turned a deep shade of red. Feeling’utterly embarrassed, she found herself being carried to the large bed in the lounge.

Her hair splayed out behind her, like a beautiful, radiant rose blooming on the bed, her disheveled shirt revealing her delicate skin. Her usually aloof and cool demeanor was now replaced with a soft, submissive allure.

Especially with her usually neat and tidy professional attire now all disarrayed, she was intoxicatingly attractive.

Knowing that she had been “starving” the man these past few days, Chloe knew she wouldn’t be able to escape today. Under his irresistible charm, she didn’t even want to escape.

She reached up to wrap her arms around Damon’s neck, leaning close to whisper,

“Just… be gentle…”

A hungry wolf, when it finally got to eat, could be quite ferocious…

Damon felt his last bit of rationality crumbling. Seeing Damon’s expression, Chloe instantly regretted her words.
