Chapter 28
Damon arched an eyebrow, “I will make you fall in love with me sooner or later, and there’s nothing wrong with it right now.”
Chloe wasn’t a hopeless romantic
She was a realist, meeting more than her fair share of men over the years and well past the age of longing for love.
Add to that Lance’s dating history, and to her, all men were cut from the same cloth.
“Mr Harper, how can you be so sure we’ll end up together?‘
Damon smirked at her slightly imitated face
“Why wouldn’t I be?”
He paused for a bit, staring into her bright, sparkling eyes. He gently brushed aside her hair from her face, his slender fingers softly gliding across her cheek. His voice was low and seductive.
“Perhaps because you’re the only one who can match me.”
Chloe was taken aback, Mr. Harper, no offense, but you’re too full of yourself.”
He chuckled, his gaze fixated on her lovely red lips, radiantly captivating
“Damon Harper,” he suddenly said.
“What?”
Chloe was stunned, not understanding what he meant.
“That’s my name. Or perhaps, you can simply call me Damon.”
Chloe was left speechless, unsure of how to handle him.
*Anyway, Mr. Harper…”
Before Chloe could finish her sentence, Damon’s slender fingers were already gently pinching her chin. Chloe paused, correcting herself:
“Anyway, Damon, do we really need to continue this conversation in this posture‘?”
Damon smirked, propping himself up to stand on the floor, careful not to touch Chloe in the process.
Chloe quickly wrapped herself with a bathrobe, covering her bare shoulders.
Damon gave her time to adjust before turning to face her
His earlier playfulness was gone, replaced by the same gentlemanly charm he had when they first met.
“I never force women, even if you’re the only one around. I like you, then I pursue you. Isn’t that the natural order of things?”
Chloe’s anger dissipated upon hearing Damon’s words.
In its place, there was an irresistible burst of laughter.
So this dignified and perfect man had never been in a relationship…
Even when pursuing someone, he only followed the most straightforward method
Getting mad at him was just like shooting herself in the foot.
“Actually, you’re right but maybe the approach isn’t quite right…”
Damon looked at her, asking. “Then what’s the right way, for instance…
Chloe took a moment to think
Like giving gifts, being understanding, respecting her, spending time together, not flirting with other women, and occasionally creating a romantic atmosphere?” Truth be told. Chloe wasn’t too sure herself. Being passive and conservative in love, how could she know so much?
Damon listened quietly, nodding after some thought
“I believe, all these are no problem for me So Damon suddenly grinned at her
“So Chloe asked cautiously
“So since you’ve taught me all these, do you want me to pursue you in such a way?”
Chloe was taken aback
She couldn’t help but feel manipulated by his words.
