Chapter 1553

Wendy was managing the guests with a touch of grace that seemed a little overdone. Chloe raised an eyebrow, but certainly wasn’t going to call her out on it. After all, tonight’s business dinner was her hard work. Why not let someone else take the reins for a change?

Chloe, seeing that Wendy was intentionally keeping the guests from interacting with her too much, decided to take her leave. But as she turned, she noticed Damon heading her way. Her eyes, which had a faint smile, suddenly brightened upon seeing the man.
