"Hi."
At this moment, Miles's voice sounded charming with a highlighted effect to the dazed Chloe. It was as if, for a split second, everything around them no longer existed and her whole world was occupied by his presence.
Too stunned, it took Chloe two seconds to regain her senses. Meeting Miles's calm, impassive eyes, her heart, which had already skipped a beat, began to thump rapidly.
'Him… It's him, but—what's he doing here?' her heart screamed at her.
However, after the brief moment of daze and a flash of panic, Chloe controlled her emotions to lock the chaos within her, appearing silent and calm as she looked at him.
'Damn. She's such a great actress. No wonder my predecessor never noticed her, nor did he ever dream that such a gifted beauty was obsessively crushing on him,' Miles thought.
"Hi," Chloe managed to reply, acting calm as if he were a stranger.
