So what the heck was going on?!
She was smart, but he just couldn’t keep up with her!
She had been talking for ages, but it was like she had said nothing at all.
Chloe glanced at a still-confused Nathan, lightly biting her lip.
"Wendy is intentionally trying to make me look bad. Felix has a thing for Wendy, so whether he'll do anything for her or not, I have to be prepared, right?"
Suddenly, Nathan got it.
"Oh, I see. So you didn't actually do anything."
"Of course, I didn't do anything!"
Nathan blinked, feeling like he had led himself astray.
When they left the hospital, Nate stood by the car involuntarily straightening up as he watched a furious Damon exit.
Word was that Ms. Chloe got smacked at the party.
This was big!
Damon cared so much about her, almost like he treasured her existence.
And now she had been hit...
This was way out of line.
Daring to mess with someone Damon held dear, they were really asking for it.
Without hesitation, he opened the car door. As soon as Damon got in, Nate promptly closed it, ran to the driver's seat, quickly opened and closed the door.
All done in ten seconds flat, that was efficiency.
"Drive to the Bakers!"
"Yes sir!"
Nate immediately started the car, driving off at top speed.
Inside the vehicle, Damon was wearing a grim expression. His eyebrows knitted together, a cold air seemed to be lingering between them. The car was spacious, but the oppressive atmosphere made it feel cramped.
Nate found it hard to breathe.
And all of this was about Ms. Chloe.
Damon was always calm, his eyes rarely betrayed any strong emotions.
He never thought that there could be someone in this world who could so easily influence Damon’s mood.
But now, there was one.
The Baker family.
He remembered it was the family of Mr. Larkin's fiancée.
They were thriving now, and e
ven the Larkins wanted to establish ties with the Bakers.
But Damon just left the hospital and headed straight for the Bakers. Did that mean...
Ms. Chloe's assault had something to do with the Bakers?
Before long, they arrived at the Baker family's mansion.
Since it was the Harper family's car, they had no trouble getting in.
As soon as Nate parked the car in front of the Baker family's mansion, Damon got out without any assistance.
The sound of the car door closing was unpleasant.
Damon didn't stop. He went straight into the entrance.
Nate went to the door that Damon had just slammed shut and couldn't help but sigh.
But he didn’t know what Elsa did to offend the usually low-profile Mr. Harper.
Thinking about the future relations between the Larkin and Harper families, Grayson paused, then laughed.
"Elsa hasn't come back yet. I don't know how she offended you. But she's still young and immature. If she's done something wrong, please give her a chance to correct it."
Damon squinted his eyes, "Impossible. There's no chance for her to correct it!"
Seeing Damon's demeanor, Grayson's smile almost disappeared, and he started to realize the seriousness of the situation.
"I don't know what my daughter did to make you so angry?"
Damon gave him a cold look, then turned to the window, looking outside through the glass.
"Your daughter assaulted my fiancée. You want me to give her a chance to correct it? How am I supposed to explain to my fiancée who's now in the hospital?"
From the moment Damon said, "Your daughter assaulted my fiancée", Grayson's mind was in turmoil.
However, the news that his fiancée was injured and hospitalized completely terrified the usually tough man, almost causing him to fall on the couch.
"Damon... this... is there some kind of misunderstanding?"
"I don't care if there's a misunderstanding. All I know is she hurt my fiancée, and that's enough."
Damon's resolute attitude caused Grayson to panic, but at that moment, the sound of an engine came from the yard, followed by the sound of a car door opening and closing.
Next up was Elsa wailing in agony.
"Oh... Felix, it hurts so bad... wah wah wah..."
Felix was stone-faced, not saying a word.
The crying continued non-stop!
It was a whole journey of non-stop crying.
He really should have patted himself on the back for the "Best Patience Award"!
