Chapter 542
Claud glanced at her with an indifferent look, his face emotionless, “See anything you like? I buy it for you.”
Chloe sat there, her lips tightly sealed, closing her eyes in resignation,
“No need, Mr. Watson, I’ve got my own money.” Chloe said.
“Consider it as compensation for not giving you roses Claud said.
*Really, it’s not necessary Chloe was somewhat at a loss for words. She stared at Claud’s handsome and indifferent
face for a moment before finally blurting out, “Mr. Watson, what exactly are you trying to do?”
Claud gave a slight smile, not looking up, just calmly said, “Isn’t it obvious? I’m pursuing you.”

affection from you. If you’re just trying to compete with Damon…”
Before Chloe could finish, Claud suddenly looked up, his deep eyes staring at her, “You seem to underestimate me.”
“So what are you thinking?” Chloe asked.
If she wasn’t so sure that Claud didn’t like her, she wouldn’t have pressed him so hard.
Claud looked up, faced her. His handsome face slowly leaned closer to her, his voice deep and captivating, “Why
are you so eager to draw a line between us? Can’t you be like other women, not agreeing but not rejecting either?
This way, you can have a backup plan. Just in case you run into trouble, you can ask me for help! You’d have an exit
strategy, right?”
Upon hearing this, Chloe stared at Claud in shock, she couldn’t believe it!
She never expected a man to volunteer to be a backup plan!
This was something that most men couldn’t accept, let alone him being the heir to The Watson Group! If he was like
those devated second male leads in TV dramas and s, who loved the female lead to their bones, and could do
anything and silently protect her.
that would be another story.
But Claud seemed to have no relation to words like “devoted” or “humble“.
He loved her so much he was willing to be her backup plan? This was simply absurd!
“I’m sorry, Mr. Watson, I can’t have two lovers at the same time.” Chloe said.
Claud gave a light smile, “It’s okay, go ahead and reject me, I’m the kind who becomes more courageous the more
setbacks I face.” “You…” Chloe frowned; besides Damon, Claud was another man she couldn’t deal with.

The auction was about to start, Damon was surrounded by people when he came out, just in time to see Chloe and
Claud sitting together, talking face to face. He slightly frowned, scaring the few people around him even more.
He headed straight towards Chloe.
“Hey, Mr. Harper, we’ve reserved a special seat for you.” The organizer of the Heart of Giving event saw that
Damon was quickly heading towards the first row and hurried to catch up to inform him, but Damon didn’t stop.
At this mornent, there was only one empty seat left in the first row, and it was at the far right edge. Chloe’s chosen
position was very concealed, leaning to the left, on the sixth seat from the left. The auction venue was very large,
with just twenty chairs in the first row alone.
