Chapter 241: Always by Your Side
The worry on his face was genuine.
Summer Monroe had just felt a bit desolate earlier, but seeing Damian Knight at this moment made her nose tingle, and she had an urge to cry.
Earlier, she was fine, yet why did seeing Damian Knight now make her feel vulnerable?
Summer Monroe chuckled self-deprecatingly and sniffed, saying: "Do I look like I have something wrong? You should be asking Coralie Hughes if anything’s wrong."
However, the worry on Damian Knight’s face did not fade away, his dark eyes fixated on her, not missing any subtle expression on her face.
He saw the unmistakable desolation still lingering on Summer Monroe’s face.
He frowned and said: "I don’t care if Coralie Hughes has anything wrong. I just want to know, what are you thinking? Why do you seem unhappy?"
Summer Monroe knew she could hide things from many people, but not from Damian Knight.
He seemed to be able to see through her heart.
Summer Monroe said somewhat helplessly: "Alright, you saw right through me. I feel that someone like Coralie Hughes still has a father who cares for her, but I’m all alone, so my mood got a bit down. It’s nothing, I’m feeling better now."
As she spoke, she deliberately pushed out a big bright smile.
However, Damian Knight’s expression still did not relax.
He gave her a deep look and suddenly said: "I will always be with you."
Summer Monroe was stunned, then she nodded: "Hmm, I know, you’re a very good friend. Having a friend like you is my luck."
Damian Knight opened his mouth, wanting to explain something, but found himself unable to say anything.
He was naturally someone whose words often contradicted his heart, he knew this himself, but... changing quickly wasn’t easy.
So in the end, he simply made an "Hmm" sound.
"By the way," Summer Monroe suddenly said: "I need some help, could you help me out?"
Damian Knight spoke seriously: "Go ahead."
No matter what it was, he would help.
Summer Monroe smiled knowingly, indeed, friends don’t need many polite words, she straightforwardly explained what she needed Damian Knight’s help with.
Damian Knight didn’t say any unnecessary words, directly made a call and relayed Summer Monroe’s request to Assistant Shelton, finally adding: "Put everything else aside, do this first."
On the other end, Assistant Shelton hurriedly agreed, setting aside a billion-dollar project to work privately for Damian Knight.
...
Meanwhile.
In the second-floor living room.
Coralie Hughes was still basking in Ryder Quinn’s tender charm and dominance when suddenly, she heard a "bang" sound, someone directly kicked the guest room door open!
The door of the guest room Coralie Hughes chose was poorly soundproofed and the door panel was not sturdy. With such forceful kicking, the whole door collapsed inward, making a resounding "boom——" noise.
The two on the bed were startled by the sound and immediately sat up.
Coralie Hughes abruptly looked towards the door, only to see Evan Hughes standing there with a group of servants, looking at her with an icy and grim expression.
"Dad..."
Coralie Hughes was startled greatly, her blood seemed to reverse flow all at once.
After the shock, she quickly reacted, hurriedly using the quilt from the side to cover herself.
Though she was shocked Evan Hughes had actually barged in, she wasn’t afraid in her heart.
Because she was sleeping with Ryder Quinn, even if this thing spread out she wasn’t afraid, because this way, Ryder Quinn had no choice but to marry her.
The raw rice has been cooked into porridge, how could the Quinn Family deny it?
They say men’s words can’t be fully trusted, she must have an ace in the hole.
In this sense, her dad’s appearance was very timely indeed!
Coralie Hughes wrapped herself in the bedsheet, not forgetting to cover "Ryder Quinn," yet she didn’t cover Ryder Quinn’s face, she wanted everyone to see!
