Chapter 28: Twisted Concern
"I can see that your forehead seems to be sweating a lot, are you okay?"
I handed Damon the tissue on the coffee table, and he took it and casually wiped off the beads of sweat on his forehead.
This was the first time I had seen Damon in a weakened state, and thinking about the not-so-fresh steak, I was also very worried mentally, wondering if he had taken his medication.
"I'm sorry."
Damon suddenly apologized, which made me very shocked.
For an aristocrat like Damon, would have an intimate relationship with a stripper exactly what is shocking to people now.
Now Damon chased me to the house, this series of behavior, but even more so, I could not see through what he actually wanted to do.
"Why apologize with me? Is it because of that not fresh steak?"
I couldn't understand, but Damon denied my question.
"No."
Although he denied my words, he pulled out a bottle of medicine from his suit pocket and handed it to me.
"I started getting stomach pains after you left, and I think you took ...... them too," he looked at me with turquoise eyes, and I saw the guilt and regret in his eyes.
"You wouldn't answer your phone, so I had to find Tom to get the address and bring the medicine over."
Although he spoke coherently, his tone was rather awkward, and his answer was the exact opposite of his actions.
I think he probably rarely apologizes to other people, or tries to care for others, leaving him not really able to express his emotions very well.
"Is this your concern?"
I didn't want to hear this nonsense from him, and I made my point, or question, directly.
Damon was poked by me, his expression became stiff and shy like a teenager, even his cheeks followed the discoloration.
The stubborn old man who was able to convince all the board of directors and lead the family to impact the foreign market coldly as the leader of the Van Dom Hew family, was now like a big boy who had done something wrong.
I watched Damon's pale face gradually change from white to red, and after a pause in demand, he still nodded to me with a stiff neck.
It was his current twisted care that finally saved me from the anger that had arisen from his eviction of me from the apartment.
"I've always had a hard time controlling my emotions since I met you, and I might do something out of the ordinary ......"
Damon, sensing the relief in my expression, continued, as if he was explaining himself for this paranoid behavior today.
"It's okay. I don't care about that, we all just need to be good."
I interrupted him, although I was troubled by these perverse manifestations of his, I always remembered that we only had a physical relationship and it was enough to give physical reactions to the extent that we could, he didn't need to explain too much to me.
"Well, remember to take your medication, I'll go first."
Damon also realized his problem, his hands together, some helpless frown, stood up to say goodbye to me.
I walked him to the door and watched him leave.
I saw Damon look back at me, and I waved goodbye to him, with no intention of retaining him.
I understood that Damon and I possessed a gulf that could not be crossed, and that a physical relationship without emotion would be a good thing for both Damon and me.
"Why, if you can't let go, ask him to spend the night here, don't be timid!"
Jenny suddenly jumped on top of me from behind me and screamed loudly.
I side-stepped her hug and closed the door to warn her, "It's three in the morning, keep your voice down, I don't want to get complaints from the neighbors tomorrow."
"Forget it, with me here as a stripper, we'll thank God if they don't complain for one day!"
Jenny casually picked up a glass from the table and finished the glass in one gulp.
She looked very excited and didn't have the slightest thought of going to sleep.
"Tell me about it, what exactly happened to you all?"
Jenny is always so energetic, while I was very tired and took off the mask on my face.
Although the weight of the mask was light, it was still uncomfortable after wearing it for a long time, and I preferred my original face to the one under it.
"Oh my god, he actually called you a little fox, didn't he my little fox, wasn't he really great?"
"Oh my god, Selena please tell me quickly!"
Jenny kept circling around me, she was just too gossipy, I looked up to say something to Jenny, when suddenly I heard the sound of the shutter.
"Jenny!" Jenny would always take pictures of me like this, and would always use them as an excuse to get me to do some boring chore for her.
"If you don't tell me, I'll send such pictures without masks to Damon, and I think he'll fall in love with you!"
"Okay, okay, I admit defeat. He was really great, and we had a come on in his car, and then I came back."
I had no resistance to Jenny's pampering, so I compromised and told her briefly what happened.
"I can't believe you guys were in the car! But why only once, you didn't do it in the apartment?"
"Oh my God, Selena do you have a problem understanding awesome?"
Jenny was very confused about the fact that we only did it once, and even started to doubt Damon's ability to do it.
"He's great, I'm the one who's tired, after all, we don't have a contract yet."
I immediately denied Jenny's thoughts and explained for Damon, I didn't understand why I was explaining for him, probably because of what happened in Damon's limo, those feelings were too good to be true.
He understood exactly how to please me, and in comparison, I was the one who enjoyed it instead.
"Okay, I'm sleepy, I'm going to bed, good night."
Jenny knew me, she understood that I would not be saying anything more, felt very bored, said good night to me and went back to her room.
"Don't talk about me, how about talking about you and Alexander, Tom."
I tried to change the subject to Jenny, who I was very curious about how Jenny was actually going to handle the day's events.
What had happened after promising Alexander an invitation to a private dance.
Jenny didn't answer me, she avoided my question.
The moment Jenny closed the door, I seemed to see the red marks on Jenny's neck, which were the same as the marks I had left on Damon's neck, hickeys.
Who could it be? Tom? Or maybe it was Alexander?
Whoever it was, I felt that both of them were more suitable for Jenny than William, or William.
"Jenny, I saw your hickeys!"
I finally shouted at Jenny's bedroom, and Jenny protested to me by banging on the wall.
I could hear her getting a little angry at me for snooping on her, and I finally couldn't help but snicker.
I guess I needed to take some action.
But that all waited until morning, tomorrow was a very busy day.
