The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride novel Chapter 397

Chapter 397 

As her agitation gradually subsided, she took a deep breath and popped the candy in her mouth. 

His taste still lingered, unbelievably sweet 

After Damon finished showering, Chloe had already fallen asleep on the couch Walking towards her, he saw her curled up and sleeping, it was heartbreaking. 

These days, they would occasionally sleep together. Typically, in the latter half of the night when she was sound asleep, she would instinctively curl up, trying to make herself as small as possible. 

A few times, he had to hold her tight to keep her from turning her back to him, and in the middle of the night, she would unconsciously snuggle into his arms 

At first, he was thrilled, but gradually, it saddened him. Because it was a sign of insecurity 

Such an independent and strong woman, yet alone in the night, she revealed her inner fragility and unease. 

Her mother made an extreme choice night in front of her, her family never supported her, and Lance even chose to abandon her at the line between life and death. With contempt and misunderstanding no one was on her side. 

But she still persisted until now, facing it all alone, which was heartbreaking 

He bent down, picked her up, and gently put her on the soft bed, lying down with her. 

She opened her eyes hazily her eyes filled with clear wariness. Seeing Damon, her tense body instantly relaxed, she closed her eyes in relief and snuggled into his arms. Damon smiled slightly, his eyes filled with deep affection. 

He liked her trust like this. He always knew she was cautious of people, including him. 

Sometimes her caution gave him a headache. Sometimes he felt her wariness of people was not so big, otherwise, how could she trust him so much? Such a paradox 

He wanted her to trust him, yet he felt she might be like this with everyone. 

He might have just appeared in front of her when she was vulnerable, but what if it wasn’t him but someone else at that time? 

He sighed lightly and held her tight. He was caught in a tangle of emotions. 

She had slept all afternoon and felt particularly comfortable. 

She vaguely remembered being carried to bed by Damon, but Damon was not in the bed. 

She got out of bed, barefoot, walked out of the bedroom. Sure enough, she saw Damon sitting on the couch, leaning against it. He had changed into a white and blue striped shirt at some point, looking down at the tablet in his hand, expressionless, engrossed in his work. 

Men at work were the most attractive. Especially Damon 

She just leaned against the door frame of the bedroom, quietly watching the man working attentively
