Chapter 880
What did Damon’s “It’s okay” actually mean to others in terms of difficulty?
It was almost unthinkable.
There had always been a knot in Chloe’s heart, and no matter how hard she tried to distract myself, she couldn’t.
Luckily, two girls who were playfully shoving each other and had rosy cheeks came in the afternoon to distract her.
Angie Harper walked in pulling Phoebe Alonso.
“Chloe, are you feeling better now?”
Angie was holding a bag of fruits and leaned forward to put them on the bedside table.
Then she smiled at Chloe.
Chloe also managed a small smile and then turned her gaze to Phoebe.
She was holding a big bunch of white lilies. Seeing Chloe looking at her, her face immediately turned red.
“Um…get well soon…”
She lowered her head, hesitated a bit, and handed over the flowers.
Chloe smiled and calmly accepted the flowers.
“Thank you.”
She had seen these two girls at the banquet before, both pampered princesses at home.
Phoebe, as a little sister was only three months younger than Wendy, wh. What? Talk about rich people scandals.
Although she was only three months younger than Wendy, she seemed so innocent, without many distractions, and
content with her current state.
She shared similar interests with Angie.
For instance, they were interested in the same person at the last banquet.
Now, it seemed like she was also interested in Chloe.
“Chloe…Phoebe and I are your fans!”
Phoebe nodded, “Mhmm.”
Chloe was somewhat amused, “Are you guys fans because I beat people up or because you like my works?”

Angie looked a bit awkward.
This time, it was Phoebe who spoke first.
“We like both! Chloe, you look cool when you deal with bad guys, and your perfume is great. I’ve ordered Firefly,
and if your previous works were also for sale, I would definitely buy them.”
Angie nodded in agreement. “Phoebe is right.”
Watching these two chatting, Chloe found it quite amusing.
Just then, Damon received a phone call, and his usually expressionless face showed a slight change. Chloe couldn’t
help but sneak a glance.
Then she saw Damon hang up, stand up from the sofa, and slowly walk to the bedside, looking down at her.
“I have some things to handle now, you stay put.”
“Okay.” Chloe nodded lightly in acknowledgment.
Damon smiled slightly, leaned down and gently kissed her smooth forehead.
Just a goodbye kiss, but it got the two girls beside her blushing.
Before he left, his deep eyes showed no emotion, his handsome face as cold as ice.
“Behave yourselves.”
His cold voice carried a strong warning, obviously directed at them.
The two didn’t even get a chance to respond; they were so scared by Damon that they hardly breathed.
They knew about what happened yesterday.
Yesterday, he knocked out Elsa just to stand up for Chloe.
Felix also got a good beating!
Terrifying!
It wasn’t until Damon left that the two girls finally relaxed a bit.
Outside the door, seeing Damon coming out, Nate immediately greeted him.
“Sir.”
“What happened?” Damon’s voice was filled with gravity and severity.
“In P City, there are two forces constantly looking for Ms. Chloe. They are quite formidable.”
“Who is it?”
Damon glanced back at the ward, then walked briskly towards the elevator.
Nate followed closely, his face somewhat indescribable.
“Sir, we haven’t found out their backgrounds yet, but it’s certain that they aren’t the same person.”
Damon’s brows furrowed.
“Sir, one of them directly contacted the Summers family and is still in P City. The other hasn’t contacted the
Summers family,. In fact… he has contacted Ms. Chloe before.”
Damon stopped and looked at Nate coldly.
“What did you say?”
Nate pursed his lips nervously, feeling a chill run down his spine.
“Ms. Chloe has had direct contact with this other person before. All these problems started after the award
ceremony, sir, so there could be many possibilities…”
Damon’s face darkened, a flash of icy light in his deep eyes.
“Continue investigating and find out their information. I need to know their true motives.”
Back in the ward, Chloe waited a while and saw that Damon didn’t return, she heaved a sigh of relief, then lifted the
blanket and got off the bed.
“Chloe, you can’t move, be careful of your wound.”
Angie seemed very worried.
“It’s okay, I can’t stand lying in bed anymore.”
She hadn’t moved around since last night, she felt like her legs were going to fail her if this kept up.
“Isn’t it boring for you guys to stay here with me? I’m fine here, if you guys have time, you can go out and have
some fun.”
Both Phoebe and Angie shook their heads, “We… didn’t find anywhere fun… if you find us annoying…”
Chloe stood up, and took a few steps slowly.

Hearing their words, she stopped, adjusted a bit, a glint in her eyes, then looked at them and laughed.
“How could I? I’m just as bored. Why don’t you guys chat with me?”
Both agreed, “Okay.”
Before, they only saw her on the screen, where she seemed very powerful and aloof, hard to get along with, but
now, she
didn’t seem as unapproachable as they’d imagined.
Chloe poured them two cups of water, took one for herself, leaned against the cabinet and watched them sitting on
the
sofa.
“Did you two grow up together?” Chloe asked.
Angie answered, “Yes, Phoebe is two years older than me. We are very good friends, I’m currently in college, and
she started. grad school to accompany me.”
She laughed at Phoebe when she said this, her innocent smile simply adorable.
Chloe looked at Phoebe, somewhat surprised.
“I used to think that the elders of those blue–blood families wouldn’t encourage the younger generation to spend a
ton of time getting degrees. They usually prefer you guys to major in something like economics or finance, or just
go abroad to get the highest level of education in the shortest time possible. For these big moneybags, time is
money.”
Phoebe gently bit her lip, a faint smile in her bright eyes, but her tone seemed a bit lonely.
“We already have my elder sister at home, and she’ll be the head of the Alonso family in the future. I don’t need to
worry too much. She can manage the family affairs just fine on her own. Anyway, sooner or later I’ll get hitched,
and if I meddle too much then it might be hard for me to pull out.”
Chloe took a deep look at her, lips slightly closed, recalling Wendy’s determined and strong character, and seemed
to understand the loneliness in Phoebe’s tone.
