Chapter 331
Chapter 331
Chloe didn’t hang around the hilltop for long
She made her way back following the path from memory, the dim lights seeming a bit eerie.
Holding up the hem of her dress and squinting, Chloe kept her eyes trained on the path.
“Hey there, you’re quite pretty.”
A flippant, slightly tipsy voice came from the side.
Frowning, Chloe quickened her pace and ignored him.
“Hey! I’m talking to you! You look lonely, let me keep you company.
The man staggered in front of her, blocking her way. Seeing Chloe’s face, his drunk eyes lit up.
He pushed away the woman he was with, opened his arms and lunged at Chloe, who coolly stepped aside
She thought the drunken man would fall and stay down.
But just as she dodged him, the man who should’ve been behind her suddenly appeared in front of her, falling unconscious with a thud
“Ah-
The woman screamed, covering her head and running off.
Chloe turned around, indeed seeing a familiar figure standing behind her.
Damon looked emotionless, a slight frown on his face. He glanced at the unconscious man, then casually shifted his gaze.
He gently pulled Chloe into his arms.
“Where have you been, you scared me…”
As Chloe spoke, she noticed two figures out of the corner of her eye.
It was the principal and vice–principal…
Damon reached up and plucked a petal from the peach blossom above her head.
“Why are you running around by yourself in the dark?”
Chloe took the petal from Damon, sniffed it and said:
“The party was boring, so I went out for a walk. Who knew I’d run into someone like that?”
“You shouldn’t wandering alone,” Damon frowned. If he hadn’t seen a figure that looked like hers from afar and followed, wouldn’t she have been harassed?
Chloe looked up, squinting and smiling, “Are you… complaining about me?”
“Not at all.”
