The biggest amount in your cards is only 100,000. How can you pay me back?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Lily widens her eyes in surprise and says, &#8220;You know that?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Yes.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Just lend me your card. I really like that wedding dress.&#8221; It&#8217;s hard to find such a wonderful dress which fits her well, &#8220;I&#8217;ll return the money to you in installments, okay?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Which one?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Chloe hurriedly shows the wedding dress to him with anticipation, &#8220;This one. Isn&#8217;t it beautiful?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Yes, it is.&#8221; Steven glances at it and asks the clerk, &#8220;How much is this wedding dress?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Wait a moment. Let me check.&#8221; The shop assistant asks the manager downstairs through the intercom, and then tells Steven, &#8220;This is a collaboration with C&amp;C, and its price is 1.09 million.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Chloe says, &#8220;It&#8217;s reasonable.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Each of her limited-edition bags is worthy of around 800,000. With regard to the luxury that she wears every day, it seems that she doesn&#8217;t know the meaning of &#8220;reasonable&#8221; at all.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe suddenly turns to Steven and says, &#8220;You can afford that, can&#8217;t you?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Yes.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Thank god &#8211;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But I don&#8217;t want to spend it on a wedding dress.&#8221; Steven says, &#8220;Miss Chloe, even if you give me ten thousand every month, you won&#8217;t be able to pay me off before I quit my job.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;My cards are frozen for now. Louis will unfreeze them for me next month.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Did Mr. Smith tell you that?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Chloe doesn&#8217;t say anything, so it is a lie. Steven turns around and walks out, &#8220;Nice talking with you, Miss Chloe.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Chloe pounces over and squats on the ground to hug his calf.<\/p>\n<p>Steven turns to look at her and says, &#8220;Get up. You&#8217;re not going to get married. Why are you buying a wedding dress?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Come on! Just buy it for me!&#8221; Chloe pouts her red lips and begs him like a spoiled child, &#8220;So that I can give my boyfriend a surprise when he comes back!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Please, lend me the card!&#8221; Chloe continues, &#8220;I&#8217;ll sell a bag to pay you back.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She really likes this dress.<\/p>\n<p>Normally, other than Louis and those guys, she will not do this to other men. However, Steven has become an exception.<\/p>\n<p>After getting familiar with him, Chloe feels secure so that she likes to be with him.<\/p>\n<p>It is strange but she just does as she wants.<\/p>\n<p>Steven smiles secretly.<\/p>\n<p>Steven sighs, &#8220;Fine, I&#8217;ll pay for it. Can you get up?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You are the best!&#8221; Chloe quickly gets up and instructs the shop assistant beside her, &#8220;Wrap it up for me. We&#8217;ll swipe the card downstairs right now!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Alright, Miss Chloe.&#8221; The shop assistance can&#8217;t hold back her smile as she has witnessed what Chloe has done just now.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe ignores her and leaves happily with Steven.<\/p>\n<p>Downstairs, she sees two well-dressed young girls standing by the counter talking.<\/p>\n<p>She can vaguely hear the name &#8216;Leigh Lewis&#8217;, so she leans over, trying to figure out what they are talking about.<\/p>\n<p>A young girl complains, &#8220;There must be something wrong with Mr. Leigh. He asked us over just to watch us acting coquettishly. If you didn&#8217;t do it well, he would scold you and ask you to get out.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Another girl says, &#8220;Sarah went there before and was kicked out, too. But she got paid in the end.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I heard that Mr. Leigh doted on his girlfriend. Why has he become like this?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Then, he grabs Chloe and leaves with the wedding gown bag.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe is stunned. In the car, she can&#8217;t help but think about what the girls have just said.<\/p>\n<p>As well as the scene of Steven smashing a vase at the girl.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;She scolded me and said I was messing around with &#8230;&#8221; Chloe murmurs depressingly. &#8220;I didn&#8217;t, didn&#8217;t! Louis protected me, so no one would dare to touch me.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>However, an uncomfortable feeling surges up and she immediately cries out.<\/p>\n<p>She&#8217;s so scared.<\/p>\n<p>She doesn&#8217;t know why she&#8217;s crying.<\/p>\n<p>Steven reaches out to hug her and coaxes her, &#8220;It is just a rumor. Stop thinking about it. You are the most beautiful princess &#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>As soon as he touches Chloe&#8217;s arm, Chloe gets scared and screamed in fear.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Don&#8217;t touch me!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She desperately moves to the corner, hugging herself while trembling.<\/p>\n<p>Steven slowly retracts his hand and clenches it into a fist. Seeing Chloe like this, he&#8217;s really sad and angry.<\/p>\n<p>After a while, seeing that Chloe is still trembling, and there is no sign for her to calm down, he opens a bottle of water, throws a pill in, and shakes it. Then he hands it to her, &#8220;Drink some water.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Chloe takes it and drinks some.<\/p>\n<p>She leans against the window and soon falls into sleep.<\/p>\n<p>Only after Chloe falls asleep does Steven dare to hold her in his arms.<\/p>\n<p>Seeing her red eyes and touching her cold hands, Steven feels both hatred and self-blame.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m sorry.&#8221; Steven touches Chloe&#8217;s cheek and murmurs, &#8220;I didn&#8217;t protect you well.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-2449","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/2449","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2449"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
