Chapter 267
Seeing the person at the door, Chloe stood up,
“Sorry to keep you waiting for so long.”
As she spoke, she walked over to Hugo, bent down and patted his head.
“Let’s go out for some fresh air,” Chloe said, picking up Hugo.
Damon frowned and walked over to Chloe.
“Was that you playing the piano just now?”
Yeah, it was.‘
“Why are you holding him?”
His voice was a bit cold, and he reached out to take the child from Chloe’s arms, his indifferent eyes
also looking at the child in her arms.

His gaze stayed on Hugo’s face for a few seconds, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes.
“Don’t…”
Chloe refused Damon, then pointed at Hugo’s eyes and shook her head.
Damon understood, glanced at the child’s eyes, and finally withdrew his hand.
As it grew darker, Nate left early for some errands, and Damon went to get the car.
When the dean escorted Chloe out, they were still talking about Hugo.
“Hugo seems to be in a good mood today. It looks like he really likes Jeanette.”
The dean smiled and shook his head, “That’s not the only reason. The child’s mother sent a message
through someone, saying that she has been behaving well in prison for the past few years and will be
released early, possibly within a few days.”
“Really? That’s great.”
Chloe was genuinely happy. Hugo’s long–awaited mother was finally going to meet him.
In this world, there is no love that can replace or surpass the love between a mother and her child.
Even if Hugo had no memory of his mother, the person he most wanted to see was still her.
The dean also nodded with relief, “Yes, it’s great. It’s just a pity that… Hugo can’t see what his mother
looks like…”
The kind–hearted dean felt a bit tangled in his heart, thinking that after all the hardships, there was still
some regret.
Chloe smiled faintly, “Compared to those children who can never find their parents, he’s considered
lucky…”
The dean sighed, “Well, I guess that’s one way to think about it.”
Damon’s car drove up, Chloe said goodbye to the dean, and got in the car.
“Is that child an orphan?”

“No. His mother is still alive.”
Damon frowned slightly, his deep eyes quietly looking at the road ahead. After a while, he asked again:
“What about his father?”
His voice was a bit low, and Chloe couldn’t help but glance at him. That handsome face had a rare
seriousness.
“Why do you care so much? Is Hugo yours…”
Damon suddenly turned his head, looking at her coldly with a warning in his eyes that made Chloe’s
heart tighten. “I don’t know who the child’s father is, and I don’t even know who his mother is. All I know
is that she’s in prison.” Damon’s eyes narrowed slightly, and he didn’t say anything, as if he was
thinking about something.
Chloe looked at him seriously, her expression becoming serious as well.
“Damon, you better not tell me that this child is actually related to you…”
Her voice carried a clear chill. Damon looked at her, the vigilance in her eyes and the determination to
face any difficulty made a chill rise in his heart.
