Chapter 318 Treat Her As a Substitute?
The night wind blew gently. Damon stood next to the flower bed in the small apartment building. He seemed to be drinking because he leaned lazily against the car and narrowed his eyes in the direction of the corridor.
He also didn’t know what was wrong with him.
Because he was feeling stuffy in his heart, at night, he and Su Yicheng drank together. Halfway through drinking, Adele’s face kept appearing in his mind. He tortured him until his head was big. Unconsciously, he drank a lot of wine. When he left Jin Yu Liang Yuan, he was already a little drunk.
Originally, Ben wanted to send him home, but he couldn’t help but report Adele’s address.
Not long after, the sound control lights on the first floor corridor lit up. A few seconds later, the figure of a woman appeared at the door.
She was wrapped in a long, beige coat, revealing her fair, smooth calves. When she ran towards him, her hair flew up like a little butterfly.
Damon’s heart moved slightly, his gaze stopping on Adele, and he could no longer move away.
Adele walked over and looked at Damon who was standing next to the car. He took a deep breath and handed the ice water in his hand to him. “What is it? Tell me.” At the same time, he said, “What is it?”
Damon looked down at the water bottle in her hand. His gaze finally stopped on her slender wrist. A few seconds later, he muttered, “I did not help you with today’s matter.”
When he was in the president’s office, he had said that he would protect her, but in the end, he was not the one who helped her get out of the encirclement.
Adele was slightly startled. A few seconds later, she finally understood what he meant. “It’s fine, it’s already in the past,” she said indifferently.
Today’s situation was very unfavorable to Damon. Kobei did not want to be with him and deliberately stirred up trouble. Yu Qingshan also had to worry about everyone, so he had always fought alone. She was already very touched that he was willing to help her.
Hearing this, Damon looked up at her and frowned. “You don’t blame me?”
“No.” Adele shook his head.
Damon was silent for a moment. Suddenly, he remembered that Kevin had told Adele to repay her with his body. For a moment, the knot in his heart could not be untied.
Seeing that the woman was about to retract her hand that was holding the water bottle, Damon suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist, pulling her toward him.
However, as if it was because he had drunk too much, his feet were unstable and his body shook unconsciously as he exerted force. He subconsciously reached out and pulled the woman into his arms.
Adele was shocked and could not help but frown. He tried to push him away and open the distance between them.
However, Damon’s hand was firmly clasped around her waist, making her unable to move. He said in a hoarse and low voice, “I seem to have drunk too much…”
Hearing the voice beside his ear, Adele’s heart tightened, and his heart pounded against his chest.
Perhaps it was because of the faint smell of alcohol on his body, she actually felt a little dizzy, and the hand that was placed on Damon’s waist also unconsciously tightened a little.
He was drunk, and if she let go of him, he would probably lose his balance and fall.
All of a sudden, Damon tightened his arms around Adele, turned around, and pressed her against the car. His arms were propped to the side, and he just happened to wrap Adele in the middle of his chest.
Adele looked up at him in surprise. “You…”
Wasn’t he drunk?
The man’s eyes were blurred, and the hair on his forehead was no longer meticulous. Instead, there were a few strands of hair, and the tie on his neck had been torn open at some point in time. He unbuttoned two buttons, revealing his honey-colored skin.
At this moment, Damon was no longer the usual cold and restrained appearance. Instead, she had an impulse.
Damon suddenly lowered his head slightly and leaned close to her. “In the future, I will try my best not to let you suffer any more grievances…”
His voice was low and deep. Coupled with his appearance, there was an indescribable charm to it. Adele’s heart beat faster and her cheeks burned unconsciously.
Seeing that she did not answer, Damon raised her chin and raised her eyebrows. “Huh?” Did you hear? ”
Adele felt her heart heat up. For a moment, she did not have the strength to push him away. She bit her lips and took a deep breath. “You drank too much…”
He was definitely drunk. He was so drunk that he did not know what he was doing at this moment. Otherwise, why would he say such ambiguous words to her?
Damon did not answer her question. He leaned close to her ear and said softly, “Can you accompany me to eat in the company another day?”
Adele’s body went numb and her thoughts were a little confused.
What did he mean by saying such ambiguous words in such an ambiguous way? This made her think too much.
She bit her lower lip and was at a loss when she suddenly thought of something.
The number of times she accompanied Damon to eat in the company could be counted on one hand. Most of the time, Clara accompanied him to eat. Could it be that… Damon thought of her as Clara?
As this thought flashed through his mind, Adele’s heart tightened and his entire body stiffened.
She didn’t want to be a substitute for others, and she didn’t want to be like him when Damon was drunk!
She calmed down a little and said seriously, “Let go of me…”
“What if I say no?”
Damon’s warm palm gently brushed her cheek. He suddenly lowered his head and kissed the corner of her lips. The hot softness moved to her lips, making her suddenly stunned.
However, a few seconds later, she regained her composure and pushed Damon away forcefully.
Damon was caught off guard and stumbled back two steps. He frowned slightly and looked at her. “What’s wrong?”
Seeing him approach her again, Adele’s head buzzed. “Don’t touch me!”
“I don’t want to be a substitute for other women! What does he think she is? A tool person who can resolve his desires?”
Damon could clearly see the fear and panic in the woman’s eyes. He stopped and looked up at her.
“Damon, I’m not your item. I won’t come and go as you please! Wake up!”
Adele said this excitedly. Before Damon could reply, she had already turned around in a panic and ran into the corridor.
Damon was stunned on the spot. Looking at the woman’s fleeing back, the emotions in his heart became more and more dull.
It was his instinct to get close to her, but he did not expect that in Adele’s eyes, he was such an annoying fellow.
It was clear that today in the company corridor, she did not reject Kevin’s physical contact so much, but if it was him, she would be like a little wild cat with its hair blown up.
Perhaps, she really hated him.
Damon unconsciously clenched his fists and stood there for a long time. Then, he slowly came back to his senses. He opened the car door and got into the car. He ordered Ben coldly, “Let’s go.”
After that, he leaned against the back of the car seat and closed his eyes.NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
Although he had drunk a lot of wine, his consciousness was still very clear. Just now, Adele’s reaction to him was like a basin of cold water that completely woke him up, and he was no longer drowsy.
Halfway there, his phone buzzed twice. He picked it up to take a look. It was a message from Clara. “Damon, tomorrow is the last day. We still have to try on the dress and rehearse for the engagement. No matter how important the matter is, you have to free yourself and give this day to me!”
Damon retracted his gaze and clenched his phone.
Tomorrow was indeed the last day, the last day before the engagement ceremony.
