Chapter 111 Too Naive

Erin froze, unsure of how to respond. If she said she didn’t feel sorry for him, it would seem like she

lacked compassion. But if she said she felt sympathetic toward his unfortunate circumstances, she fell

that he might scoll at her sympathy, as it was something that men like him needed the least.

She suddenly stood up but turned her head away. “I’m sorry. I think something has gotten into my eye.

Please excuse me. I’ll head to the

restroom now.”

After Erin entered the restroom in the private room once again, Chandler also stood up and went in

after her.

Simon and Holly, who were left at the table, exchanged glances at this bizarre situation.

In the corridor of the restroom, Erin was pinned against the wall by Chandler. Her heart was beating

rapidly, and her face blushed

involuntarily. She hadn’t gotten this close to him for quite some time. At this moment, she couldn’t

figure out what Chandler was playing

at.

“Mr. Frost, please move aside.” She tried to speak calmly, but she was extremely nervous and dared

not move an inch.

Chandler leaned down and closed their distance even more. If she raised her head even slightly, her

forehead would touch his chin.

“Were you feeling sorry for me just now?” he asked softly, with his head lowered.

Erin didn’t dare to look at him. “No…”

He snorted coldly. “Then why were you crying?”

“I suddenly thought of something sad.” She casually made up a reason on the spot.

Chandler held her delicate chin in one hand, forcing her to tilt her head up. His gaze was deep and

frosty. “Were you thinking of the time when my father asked you to leave me?”

She remained silent. The tears in her eyes gradually dissipated as her anger slowly rose. There was no

way she would recall that day’s

events!

Her expression made Chandler burst into laughter instantly. “Since you’re so unwilling, you should just

stay by my side. You chickened

out so easily because of that old man’s words. Bravo to you, Erin. Very nicely done.”

“You take this matter too lightly! What do you want? You want me to stay by your side as your secret

lover? Aren’t you afraid your fiancée

will find out?” Erin retorted, the tone of her voice laced with hints of sarcasm and grievance.

He had a fiancée, and she was completely oblivious to this fact. Erin felt furious that he’d failed to

inform her about it beforehand. With just a few casual words, her emotions were stirred, and she was

all flustered.

A sense of disappointment arose within Chandler as he thought that a woman like Erin was simply too

naive. If she were really allowed to enter his world, she would easily fall prey to others.

Chandler instantly released her, his expression faltering and becoming forlorn. He left with a complex

look in his eyes. Meanwhile, Erin, who remained in place, had a regretful expression. The last trace of

wishful thinking she had disappeared completely.

If what Quentin and Roman had said couldn’t convince her, Chandler’s silence just now was indicative

enough. He really had a fiancée, so

naturally, he would have that engagement banquet.

Erin looked at herself in the mirror. The waterproof mascara wasn’t waterproof at all. Her makeup was

smudged, and she looked like a

mess. Those faint white tear stains running along her cheeks were laughable.

At the same time, she felt a bit sorry for herself too. She could escape reality for a moment, but she

couldn’t hide from it forever.

Right now, she wished she could go home, lock herself in her room, and cry to her heart’s content. She

should discard this man who hurt

her and made her suffer like a used tissue without hesitation.

Even so, she could never bring herself to do it.

1/3

When Erin came out of the restroom, she walked toward Holly and handed her a credit card with an

upper limit of a hundred thousand

dollars.

“I’m sorry, Holly. I received an urgent call just now, so I have to leave now. Take your time with the

meal. I’ll cover the bill.”

Holly looked surprised. “Are you and Chandler up to something? He left five minutes ago, and he

already paid the bill.”

Erin paused for a little. “No, his departure has nothing to do with me.”

With that, the two of them left without finishing their meal. Holly, who was left behind, was actually quite

happy. She got what she wished for and got to spend time with Simon alone. Although Simon wanted

to leave as well, he thought it would be too ungentlemanly of him to

leave Holly behind.

On the way back, Erin didn’t hurry to take a taxi or the subway. She walked alone on the street, trying

to sort out her thoughts. She was so

immersed in her thoughts that she didn’t notice three female students following her from behind.

When she was about to cross the road, the traffic light for the pedestrians turned red, so she stopped.

Suddenly, she felt a strong push

from behind!

Just as she thought she would get run over by the oncoming vehicle, a man grabbed her by the arm

and pulled her back swiftly. As a

result, she crashed into the man’s embrace.

The man scolded the three female students, “Are you crazy? You were committing a crime! Don’t think

you can’t be held responsible just because you’re underage! You can end up in a juvenile detention

center for this!”

Before they had a chance to appreciate how handsome this man was, the three female students were

so shocked by his severe and harsh. scolding that they started bursting into tears. They didn’t expect

someone would witness their attempt to harm Erin.

“Mister, we didn’t mean to…”

“Yeah, it was an accident! We’re sorry about that, miss!”

“We’re sorry…”

The three female students seemed genuinely afraid. They kept on apologizing and crying. If Erin really

got run over, it would be an irreparable tragedy, and they would surely regret it for the rest of their lives.

Erin’s head was still a little fuzzy, but the familiar scent coming from the man made her feel at ease.

She listened to the three female students crying incessantly while the man took out his phone to call

the police. She stopped him and said calmly, “Forget it and let them go. I think they didn’t do it on

purpose.”

Looking at the three female students who appeared to be around fourteen or fifteen years old, Erin

suddenly thought of a possibility. They were likely fans of Matthew. Otherwise, why would they have

such animosity for no reason?

The man insisted on reporting the incident to the police, but the three female students kneeled down

and begged for forgiveness. People passing by who didn’t know the truth started pointing fingers at the

man and Erin. They wondered why this handsome man and a beautiful woman were bullying the

female students.

In the end, the man still reported the incident to the police. After assessing the situation, the police took

the three students away in his police car. Evidence could be easily found through the footage from the

surveillance cameras nearby.

The man pulled Erin’s hand and walked ahead quickly, beraling her all along the way.

Finally, Erin shouted, “Hey! Are you done scolding me? Just because you saved me earlier doesn’t

mean you can freely insull me. Chandler!

With that, Chandler let go of her hand. He’d been wearing a hat all day, and he was dressed in casual

clothes. His outfit made him look young, and he could pass off as a college student.

“Erin, don’t you understand how terrible those female students were? What if something happened to

you today? Shouldn’t they bear criminal responsibility? If we don’t criticize and educate them severely,

what will happen if they harm others in the future?” Chandler questioned her with a grave look,

sounding stern and chilling.

His question left Erin speechless. She’d always been too soft–hearted. Now that she calmed down, she

realized that her compassion and

tolerance were no more than foolish indulgence.

Seeing her strained expression and how she remained silent, he could tell that Erin was reflecting on

her earlier mistake.

Chandler’s tone softened, and he pulled her hand forward again. “Let’s go. It’s hot here.”

It wasn’t until two minutes later that Erin realized that her hand was in his. Somehow, they ended up

together again. She tried to free her hand from Chandler’s grip, but he held onto her tightly.

Chandler kept walking until he saw a movie theater. Then, he put on the sunglasses hanging from his

pants pocket and casually said, “I’m tired of walking. Let’s go in and watch a movie.”

Erin didn’t know what to say to that.

Reluctantly, Erin protested from behind him. “Why are we watching a movie together? We’re not on a

date! We’re no longer in a relationship, okay?”
