Chapter 12 Live with Daniel

"Young people always like to be late nowadays. We have been waiting for a long time!"

As they arrived, Grandpa Johnson and Grandpa Bruce had already come, waiting for them. They were talking and laughing happily.

But there came a loud thud. Everyone present was shocked as they suddenly saw Chloe kneeling on the ground.

"Grandpa Bruce and Grandpa Johnson, I'm so sorry to let you down. I know I still owe all of you an apology for the cancellation of the engagement party."

"Chloe, what are you doing now?" Grandpa Bruce quickly stood up and walked forward.

"I am sorry." Said Chloe very sincerely.

"Chloe, don't say that. We have seen you grow up and know you are a good girl. You must have your own reason to do this. We won't blame you for this."

Then Grandpa Bruce asked Daniel to help Chloe stand on her feet. She was still injured with her leg in plaster, and now she knelt down, which might open her wound again.

"Does it hurt?" Daniel asked worried as he reached out to touch her leg in plaster.

Chloe whispered in a low voice, "Yes."

"You asked for it yourself." Said Daniel angrily. Then he carried her back to her seat and went out to find a doctor.

"Grandpa Bruce, we're so sorry to trouble you."

Looking at the scene, Ben didn't know whether he should be happy or not. Chloe had never changed. She made mistakes, and she would apologize nicely.

"Don't blame her now. She's always the adorable child in my mind. Why don't we sit down and just let it go?" Grandpa Bruce asked everyone to sit down.

"Why haven't Mrs. Vicky and Mr. Marlin come?" Chloe asked with concern. Marlin Bruce was Daniel's father.

"They came to do charity in the countryside, so they are late now."

Chloe nodded. As the door was pushed open again, Nancy walked in.

"Grandpa Bruce, Grandpa Johnson, I am sorry that I am late. I was stuck in a traffic jam." She greeted with a gentle smile.

Seeing the daughter of his life-saving doctor, Grandpa Bruce smiled and nodded happily, "Come and sit down."

Nancy happened to sit next to Chloe, and that seat originally belonged to Daniel.

When Daniel came back with the doctor, Nancy stood up and asked, "Daniel, what's going on?"

"Chloe's wound was torn apart so I found a doctor for her," Daniel explained.

Nancy looked at Chloe in surprise, "Chloe, why don't you tell me about this? I can help you with the wound too."

Grandpa Bruce said in agreement, "That's right! We forgot about Doctor Nancy. Chloe, don't blame me. I am too old to remember everything."

Nancy felt a little uncomfortable with the word 'forgot'. She couldn't resist saying, "It doesn't matter. Chloe didn't tell me in the first place, so I don't know it."

"Grandpa Bruce, how could this be your fault? It's not a big deal!" Said Chloe, grinning.

"If you need any medical help in the future, you can come to me directly," Nancy added.

Thinking of being trapped in the hospital for so long, Chloe immediately shook her head and said, "I will not need this anymore!"

"Miss Chloe, how about coming to work in my company?" Said Daniel indifferently.

Nancy was sitting between Daniel and Chloe, so when they were talking to each other, they couldn't avoid seeing Nancy's face.

Nancy took the opportunity to look at Daniel, smiling elegantly and beautifully.

"Why? I know nothing about business." Chloe wanted to refuse subconsciously because she had a bad feeling.

"Miss Chloe, I think you will be very willing to come if you think twice." Daniel looked at her meaningfully, clearly suggesting something.

Oh, he was indicating her to pay off his debts!

Chloe winked at Daniel crazily, afraid he would tell everyone about the debts. She didn't want her parents to know about it at all.

Somehow, she really felt she owed him this. And if her mom knew about it, she would suffer definitely.

"Miss Chloe, if you…" Said Daniel.

"No problem!" Shouted Chloe, interrupting him at once.

"Can you turn down your voice? No one is deaf." Mrs. Laura scolded Chloe as coldly as usual.

Chloe was sorry and lowered down her head.

Being ignored all the time, Nancy awkwardly smiled and stopped looking at Daniel.

As she came inside, Daniel had never really looked at her, which made her feel she was unwanted here. But in fact, she was invited by Daniel today.

After all the dishes were served, Daniel suddenly raised his glass, standing up and glancing at Nancy.

"Today, I would like to take this opportunity to express my sincere gratitude to Nancy, who helped Chloe a lot in the hospital. Thank you, Nancy."

Nancy also stood up. But as she was about to clink the glasses with Daniel, he avoided and drank first.

Her hand froze in the air for a moment, and later she drank it too.

The wine was so spicy for her!

But Chloe couldn't get why Daniel said that. After all, she should be the one to extend thanks to Nancy, but why did Daniel just represent her?

"Daniel is such a considerate man. Unlike Chloe."Laura took the opportunity to be mad at Chloe again.

"Sorry, we are late." Mrs. Vicky opened the door and walked in with a radiant face.

She immediately walked up to check Chloe's wound. After hearing what Chloe just did, she pretended to be angry, "Chloe, you stupid child. Don't do such silly things again."

"Yes, madam!" Said Chloe firmly.

Now that everyone was there, the meal finally started.

During the dinner, Mrs. Vicky said suddenly, "Daniel, I remember that you have a house in the Deer Garden in the south of the city."

Daniel nodded, "I am living there."

"Perfect!" Said Mrs. Vicky, proposing the next second, "Let Chloe live there with you. You can accompany each other. What's more, Laura is angry about Chloe right now. Chloe might as well move out and change a mood."

Chloe looked at Daniel who seemed to be considering the proposal. Then she shook her head, "I don't agree!"

"Just do what you are told. Or are you going to deliberately piss me off again?" Laura looked so impatient and gloomy.

Seeing her look, Chloe wanted to cry. Why did her mom have to be so strict with her? She didn't understand. Because her mom didn't love her?

Or because she was so naughty that she didn't deserve to be loved?

"Miss Chloe, if you stay with me, I will take care of you. So if that's what bothers you, you can feel relieved." Daniel seemed to notice her bad mood and tried to comfort her.

After hesitating for a while, Chloe nodded at last, "Alright."
