Chapter 347 Chapter 347 After Chloe left, Connor lay on the grass for what felt like forever.
The horizon was starting to glow faintly white. Chloe had long lost any desire to sleep. She didn't go back to the tent but instead perched herself on a huge rock by the seaside, staring straight ahead into the foggy grey expanse. Waves kept rolling in, seeping into her toes like foam, tickling her for a bit before hastily retreating. The distant sea was as calm as a stagnant pond, mirroring Chloe's mood these past days. But recently, something had stirred these still waters.

She looked up. It was Pax.
Chloe was surprised. "Why aren't you asleep?" "I woke up and felt like taking a walk," Pax replied. "Why are you here?" Chloe turned her gaze back to the endless sea. "Watching the sunrise," she said flatly.
Pax nodded. "Then I'll watch it with you." Chloe frowned but didn't send him away. She had already decided that once the show was over, she'd cut ties with both Pax and Connor. So, there was no rush to show him her displeasure now. "Pax, why do you like me?" Chloe asked out of the blue.
Pax was taken aback. It was the first tChloe had asked him such a question, the first tshe acknowledged his feelings. He felt a bit of joy. "I fell for you at first sight." "Love at first sight? Sounds more like lust at first sight to me," Chloe retorted.
Pax didn't deny it. Instead, he confidently praised, "You are truly beautiful." Chloe turned her head and saw Pax staring at her with eyes that almost sparkled. She looked disgusted but then turned away, her expression softening, her tone growing more thoughtful.

I've never even considered you a man." "But I'm an adult now. Is it because you can't seeas an adult man?" Pax asked defiantly. He walked up to Chloe, knelt down to almost meet her gaze. "Chloe, I like you. Please look at me. If you don't like the younger guys type, I can be very manly too." He even flexed his biceps for her to see.
Chloe kicked him away. "Get lost, I don't like you no matter what."
Pax fell onto the beach, got up looking dejected, and beside Acted, and sat back down beside her. Am T that bad?" "It's not that you're bad, you're just not my type." "Then what's your type? Someone like my uncle?"
Chloe was taken aback and turned to look at Pax, clearly astonished Did Pax realize that? It seemed he had seen through her thoughts. Pax spoke with sdisappointment, "He already told me, you two had a thing."
Since Connor had mentioned it, Chloe felt no need to hide it anymore. She артчанлучена ohideta actually felt a bit relieved. X
