Chapter 1016
Chloe looked at Damon, and hesitated for a moment, “I…”
“Chloe, you gotta know, if it wasn’t for you today, my bullets would’ve been out long ago.”
Stanley sternly cut off Chloe’s words, without any signs of frivolity or nonchalance. No arrogance, no anger, just
deep and cold.
Everyone got a taste of what it truly meant to be temperamental.
Chloe bit her lip. She knew Stanley too well. He despised this kind of standoff, and if he decided to take action, he
wouldn’t care about the consequences.
He had a short fuse and was more into bloodshed. Once he lost control, no one could stop him. On a normal day,
the bullets in his hand would’ve been all over the other side’s body.
In the silence, Damon suddenly held her hand tightly.
“Hesitating about what? Are you really not willing to go back with him just because of the company? Huh?”
Chloe looked up at him discontentedly and then sighed helplessly.
This man… If she didn’t say it today, there would be more trouble when they got home.
“Of course there are more important reasons, I want to be with Damon. He’s important to me… Stanley, if you dare
to sho ot, I’ll really erase you from my memory!”
Stanley’s facial muscles twitched. “Are you threatening me?”
Chloe’s face also showed coldness, “If you think it’s a threat, I’ll be very happy…”
Stanley didn’t speak, but Ned, standing next to him, looked at her with a complex expression.
Stanley kept silent for a while, and only after a while, he asked her again, “He is very important to you, what about
me?”
Chloe didn’t hesitate at all, “Of course you’re also very important.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNed immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Thank God.
Stanley’s cold face instantly turned into a spring breeze, and his eyes also sparkled, like a child who got candy. He
threw the gun behind him and spread his arms to hug Chloe.
However, halfway there, he had to stop. Turning his eyes, he saw that the gun in Nate’s hand was now in Damon’s
hand, pointing at Stanley’s temple, his body radiating coldness, his eyes full of chill.
“You have the guts to touch her?”
Everyone present couldn’t help but shiver.
Stanley glanced at him with one eye, without a hint of tension, but with a full smile on his face. “I’ve touched her
many times before, didn’t you hear? I’m her most important person.”
Damon’s gloomy face revealed a frightening grimness.
“You’re not.”
“I am!”
“You’re not.”
“I am!”
“You’re not.”
“I am!”
“You’re the other man.”
“I am!”
“Right, you are.”
Stanley frowned, blinked, felt something was wrong, turned to Ned behind him, and asked, “What did he call me?”
Ned hooked the corner of his mo uth, “Mr. Stanley, he called you… the other man.”
What? That sly fox.
“You’re the other man!”
Damon kept his face emotionless, with a slight upward curl of his lips, unconcerned. He held Chloe’s hand and put
away the gun. “Considering your previous care for her, I won’t hold it against you today.”
Having said that, he was about to take Chloe away.
“You can’t take her away!”
Damon looked at him coldly. “Do you think you can stop me?”
The atmosphere immediately became tense. Chloe took a deep breath. These two stubborn men, when would they
ever stop?
“Stanley, I want to go home and rest.”
“You can rest at my place too.”
Chloe closed her eyes. “Can you stop, for the sake of your life I once saved?”
Stanley’s mo uth twitched. “You really have the nerve to bring that up?!”
“I saved your life and I can’t mention it? Even though you took a bullet for me in the end, I put myself in such
danger, and it was all just to save you! Stanley, have you forgotten that I was your lifesaver?”
Stanley gnashed his teeth and glared at Chloe.
“Haha…Ned, where’s my gun, I need to teach this insolent woman a lesson!”
Again?
Chloe rubbed her forehead. Every time she mentioned this, he reacted like a cat that had its tail stepped-on,
furious!
“Either you k ill me today, or I’ll find a way to completely forget you, or you let me go home today!”
After Chloe said the first sentence, Stanley put away his gun.
After Chloe said the second sentence, Stanley’s face immediately changed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter Chloe said the third sentence, Stanley pointed directly to the door and shouted, “Get out!”
Chloe choked, looking at Stanley’s hard side face, and suddenly fell silent. She felt guilty towards him. He had
threatened to ki ll her, at least eight hundred times, but she was still alive and well.
Every time she mentioned forgetting him, his face would immediately darken. Was he really afraid of her forgetting
him?
But why? During the years she was with him, although they lived in the dark, life was not colorless. She was still like
an ordinary person, learning what she wanted to learn, doing what she wanted to do. Even after returning to him,
her days of wandering abroad and going hungry were over. Although there was some extraordinary training, it was
relatively stable and comfortable life.
Stanley gave her all of this. He appeared in Chloe’s life when she was still young. At that time, Chloe was physically
and me ntally damaged. Her mother left her, and she was abandoned by the Summers family. However, at that
time, her pillar of strength was Lance.
Later, she was still searching for her mother, was still despised by the Summers family, and even betrayed by
Lance in the end. Thankfully, the one who appeared by her side was Damon. As for Stanley… Chloe only had
gratitude and an apology for him now.
If we really had to talk about feelings, then Stanley was only like family to her.
“Stanley…”
Chloe softly muttered, looking at Stanley with his neck stiff, his face expressionless. She pursed her lips, slowly
moved closer, and gently hugged Stanley.
“I’m sorry. Thank you,” Chloe whispered.
When Chloe touched Stanley, his body tensed up a bit.
A cold wind seemed to appear out of nowhere in the entire hall, whistling past.
