Eight Uncles' Beloved Treasure (Lily)

Elsa and Chloe both gazed at Simon with different expressions.

Simon felt a surge of irritability. He knew that Elsa, who had always been arrogant, was intentionally displaying such an expression to him, but beneath it, there was a hint of vulnerability. She was acknowledging her mistake and genuinely trying to make amends.

In the past, Elsa had never acted this way. She would only let him coax her, but now she was the one coaxing him…

As Elsa tried to appease him, Simon could not help but feel his heart soften.

Yet, as he looked at Chloe’s face, he had a strong realization. If he did not handle the situation correctly, Chloe would leave this time.

But he had no romantic feelings for Chloe, so why did he feel this sense of guilt?

Just as the tension reached its peak, the clingy dog was taken away by Bellflower, and both Simon and Chloe regained some clarity.

Simon took a deep breath and spoke in a conciliatory tone, “Chloe, I need to get medicine. All of you are injured, and it’s important to attend to the wounds…”

Chloe felt a sudden disappointment.

Initially, he was going to bring her inside to get the medicine, but now he was going to fetch the medicine for the both of them.

This implied that he had listened to Elsa’s words. Going inside to get the medicine and coming back out would only be incidental, as he would be following Elsa’s instructions.

“No.”

Chloe turned around and headed toward the villa.

Simon’s irritability grew, and he involuntarily chased after her, exclaiming, “Chloe, can you stop causing a scene?”

“Why do you seem like a different person? You haven’t been like this during this past month we’ve been together…”
