Chapter 69 sportswear , Hmm ? Hearing a voice , Noelle tilted her head curiously , peering past Damons shoulder toward the doorway .

Eli , dressed in casual spoi emerged from inside .

Her face lit up with a radiant smile , and she waved at him cheerfully .

Eli , good morning ! What are you doing back here ? Its the weekend , so I came home , Eli explained , though his gaze remained locked on Damon and Noelle , his face filled with disbelief .

Damon , how could you say that about me ? Dont I have any dignity ? You ? Dignity ! Dont make me laugh .

I cant believe how mean you are ! You think I care ? Eli silently observed the bickering pair , utterly bewildered .

Their dynamic was … peculiar , to say the least .

Taking a deep breath .

Eli tried to mediate .

Damon , Noelle is still a young girl .

Cant you talk to her with a bit more kindness ? And why should I ? Did you forget what I said about her before ? Damon shot back , his irritation evident .
