Chapter 916
Nathan shoved his hands in his pockets, trailing behind Chloe. Tall and slender, yet bursting with energy, she was a
striking figure with an extraordinary charisma and a sharp mind.
He had to admit, Damon sure had a good taste. He had spotted a woman like Chloe, a real gem.
With a light raise of his brows and a few long strides, Nathan caught up with her.
“Are you in a rush to get home?”
Chloe abruptly stopped, turned back to her room, and took out a key card to unlock the door. In a moment, she
emerged with a few bags and handed them over to Nathan.
“What’s this?”
‘Clothes,” Chloe replied indifferently
Nathan took a quick glimpse. “Ha,” he said, “don’t tell me these are clothes you bought for me.”
After putting the card back, Chloe coolly replied, “They are from Yulla.”
Nathan’s face turned icy
Sensing Nathan’s mood shift, Chloe turned to look at him. He was tall and strong, even more so than Damon. Her
gaze rose to meet his, his expression grim, with a slight smirk on his lips.
“Something’s off with you today. Did you have a fight with Yulla?”
Nathan looked down at her, his usual smile wiped off from his face and his voice becoming colder.
“Did we ever have a good time together?”
Chloe pressed the elevator button and replied nonchalantly, “If you are not happy together, why did you marry her?
You guys are a married couple now, after all.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs the elevator door opened, they stepped in, one after the other.
“I can’t help but notice that you didn’t seem to have any plans to bring Yufia and Anya back. It seems like you guys
are just putting on a show. But I remember you didn’t object to Yulia and Anya going to Granny Harper’s. You
wanted Granny Harper to know about her, but now It’s like you two are living separate lives. What’s going on in
your head?”
Nathan’s brows knitted slightly: appearing somewhat vexed.
“I’m not thinking about anything.”
Chloe smiled faintly. That line….
Seemed true.
If he wasn’t thinking about anything, that would feel the most real.
She wasn’t one to meddle in others‘ affairs. She used to only care about herself, and there weren’t many people
who needed her Interference. Now, she realized, there were many people around her that she cared about
unconsciously.
She flashed a small smile. But, she knew better than to meddle in others‘ relationships. A little concern would
suffice. Getting too involved would probably mess things up.
The elevator halted midway. An old man sat alone in a wheelchair at the elevator entrance, radiating a natural
authority.
Chloe glanced at his face and surroundings, making sure he was alone, and asked, “Are you getting on?”
“You’re not a local, are you?” The old man looked at her and responded.
Chloe nodded, replying softly. “Mm–hmm.”
The old man wheeled himself into the elevator.
Chloe watched the old man struggling to adjust his wheelchair. While she didn’t help openly, she subtly steadied the
wheelchair, making it easier for him to adjust.
Despite the minor gesture, Nathan saw it all.
Once the old man got the wheelchair set, he glanced up at Chloe, who stared ahead, with no expressions on her
face.
The elevator finally stopped at the first floor.
When the elevator doors opened, Chloe glanced at the woman standing across from her. The woman was wearing
a dark red fur shawl and had her back facing the elevator doors while talking on the phone, right in
front of the elevator entrance.
Chloe furrowed her brows, but the old man was already wheeling himself out. Just then, the womah at the elevator
entrance burst into laughter, causing her to move backwards slightly.
Chloe swiftly reached out to grab the handle of the wheelchair, trying to dodge the woman, but it was too late.
The woman’s phone fell from her ear onto the floor, followed by a shrill scream!
Seeing her phone screen shattered, her face darkened. Spotting the old man In the wheelchair who had bumped
into her, she immediately glared at Chloe, who was pushing the wheelchair.
‘I’m sorry…”
“Are you blind?!”
Chloe decided to apologize to resolve the Issue. Even though it wasn’t entirely her fault, she was guiding the old
man, and the woman was directing her anger at her. So, she Instinctively responded.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe thought an apology would resolve the issue, especially since it wasn’t entirely her fault. But before she could
finish, the woman’s sharp words made her face darken.
She looked up at the woman, seeing a middle–aged face decently maintained but heavily made up, trying to give
off a natural look. There was a familiar feel in her features.
Chloe’s gaze was icy, her Imposing presence startling the woman enough to make her step back..
She straightened her back and sald crossly, “What are you glaring at? You bumped into me and you think you’re in
the right? Look at what happened to my phone! I don’t want to argue, just give me 20,000 dollars and I’ll go!”
“You were the one who bumped into us,” Chloe retorted coldly.
“That’s why I said you’re blind! I was facing away from you, I don’t have eyes In the back of my head. Don’t you
have eyes in the front of your head? Can’t you dodge when I step back?!‘
Chloe bit her lip lightly. “This is a public place, not your home. Your behavior tells me you’re not that great, I don’t
have to step aside every time I see youl
There were a few people waiting for the elevator nearby. They had nothing to do and had watched the whole scene
unfold.
The woman had been making a call in the elevator hall, changing topics from brands to various types of jewelry,
loudly mentioning “not expensive, just tens of thousands of dollars,” “only 20,000 dollars,” “only a few thousand
dollars? That’s fake!”
She was speaking so loudly, as if worried that others wouldn’t know she was rich, which was quite annoying.
They all started sharing their opinions.
“She’s treating this place like her own home; her phone call was so loud It could blow the roof off!”
*She was blocking the elevator with her back, bumped into someone, and they didn’t even say anything, but shes
the one who lost her temper. That’s just disgraceful.”
“A phone for 20,000 dollars, that’s Impressive!”
