He never responded to her reliance on him, she endured the ridicule and sarcasm from others, bearing
the slander for a whole six years. “As long as you trust me, that’s all that matters. Let’s try to keep this
low-key, I am your fiancée after all, if this blows up, it will affect your reputation!”
Back then, she chose not to pursue it, simply because she believed, he trusted her!
Even to protect his reputation, she ultimately chose to compromise herself.
He felt like his heart had been cut open, the pain was unbearable…
In Chloe’s room, Nate stood solemnly at the door
“Sir, this is all we could find for tonight. Because Old Mrs. Summers was involved in a bribe back then,
plus the way the Summers family handled it was rather crude, most of the evidence has been erased,
it’s hard to get any now.”
“I just need results” Damon’s face was gloomy, his deep eyes were enough to intimidate anyone.
“Yes, sir.”
Nate bowed slightly, showing utmost respect.
Chloe, with her arms crossed, stood by the window. Under the dim light, the tree shadows swayed,
making everything seem eerily quiet.
She closed her eyes, suppressing the chill rising in her heart, swallowed the sour lump in her throat,

darkness.
Someone wrapped their arms around her from behind, the cold embrace made her feel a warmth she
had never felt before.
Her eyelashes trembled slightly, the chill in her heart faded by hall.
This person was her redemption in this life.
Chloe thought.
She just leaned on his chest, looking at the desolate night outside the window, feeling a sense of

“You have ten seconds to feel sad”
His low voice rang out from above her head, dominating and stingy.
The stiff and awkward comfort, showing a bit of helplessness, made Chloe chuckle.
“What?”
Damon’s hand holding her tightened a bit.
The depression in her heart gradually disappeared, Chloe turned around in his arms, looking up at the
handsome man who was much taller than
her.
“Ten seconds is not enough to feel sad.”
“Then you don’t have the right to feel sad, ten seconds is the limit.”
Chloe smiled slightly, raising her chin to look into Damon’s eyes, after a while, she said:
“I’m not sad.”
A hint of a smile gradually appeared in Damon’s gloomy eyes, he tucked her loose hair behind her ear,
his fingers lingering on her cheek.
“I only feel sad when I care, they…are not worth it. Feeling sad for their indifference is punishing

“Who is worth it?”
Damon suddenly spoke, making Chloe startled. “Huh?”
“Who is worth your sadness?”

No”
Damon didn’t speak, just silently watched her.
Chloe slightly parted her lips, then continued to say, “I brought some rose essential oil.”
Damon’s eyebrows twitched slightly, he remembered, this question, they had discussed it last night.
“Have you heard of so-called aphrodisiacs? Roses, lilies, rosemary, these can all be used as
ingredients, they are the most natural aphrodisiacs.”
Damon was silent for a long time, then said, “You know quite a lot.”
“It’s basic knowledge for a perfumer.”
Damon fell silent again, after a long time-
“Do you have it now?”
“What?”
“Rose essential oil.”
“What…are you going to do?”
“What do you think?”
“…There’s none left.”
“Any other questions?”
“I don’t want to ask anymore.”
