Chapter 61 Childhood Trauma

“Yes! At least from what I know about Mr. Frost. My father is the buller of the Frost family, and he was the one who told me all

these.”

From what Kyle had said. Erin realized that Chandler had choked her because of his trauma. She understood childhood trauma could greatly impact a person’s life. Suddenly, she felt a surge of sympathy for Chandler and even felt bad for him.

“Thanks for telling me,” she said.

Kyle smiled. “You’re welcome. Honestly speaking, Mr. Frost has treated you rather differently. You’re the first woman who has

ever stayed with him for so long.”

Erin, however, didn’t enjoy hearing that and chuckled in derision. “Are you going to tell me that I should feel honored and be

grateful to him?*

Kyle immediately explained. “You got me wrong. All I’m saying is that Mr. Frost has never been in love before. He doesn’t…”

“Mr. Morn, you’re overthinking it! My relationship with him has nothing to do with love. He doesn’t even know how to respect a person, let alone to fall in love,” Erin said and turned to leave. She found Kyle’s

attempt to excuse Chandler’s behavior to be ridiculous. “Of course, he would side with his boss. How could I expect him to sincerely help me?” she thought.

Staring after her as she stormed off, Kyle stood where he was and let out a deep sigh. He knew he should stay out of it, but

being unable to interfere with Chandler’s personal life, he still wanted to help him.

“You’ve become rather talkative, haven’t you?”

Startled, Kyle turned around and saw Chandler standing not far away. Realizing that Chandler must have heard what he said, Kyle lowered his head and said apologetically. “I’m sorry, Mr. Frost! I knew I stepped out of line, but I did it so that Miss Lane

wouldn’t misunderstand you…”

Gazing at the seemingly endless sea, Chandler waved his hand to stop him. “It’s okay. I’ve come here to apologize to her

anyway.”

Kyle stared blankly at him and couldn’t believe his ears. “Mr. Frost wanted to apologize to Miss Lane?” he wondered.

Turning his face to him halfway, Chandler let out a bitter smile after seeing the man’s astonished look. “She said, ‘Choke me to death if you dare,‘ just now. I said the same thing to my father when I was fifteen.” He gazed at the horizon, and there was a

hint of remorse in his voice.

His heartfelt words made Kyle’s eyes turn red, and he said emotionally. “Mr. Frost, I’m truly happy for you…”

Stiffening his face, Chandler walked toward him, “Aren’t you ashamed? Dry your tears.”

Kyle quickly did so and repeatedly nodded as he said, “You’re right, Mr. Frost! I’m sorry.”

Chandler then ignored him and went away alone.

Thinking of how Erin looked when she left, Kyle worried the conflict between Chandler and Erin would escalate. At the same time, knowing that she was able to make Chandler reflect on his behavior, Kyle felt it was good to have her around. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

He quickly caught up with Chandler and said, “Mr. Frost, women always want others to appease them. Since you came to apologize to Miss Lane, you should talk to her now…”

Chandler narrowed his eyes. “Why are you so concerned about this?”

“I just feel that you’ve become much more cheerful since Miss Lane came into your life.”

“Oh, yeah?” Chandler thought of her face, and indeed, he felt a tinge of joy.

“Mr. Frost, do you remember asking me to investigate Miss Lane’s cleared browsing history? You saw it yourself; she was trying to leave you and isn’t drawn to your sex appeal.”

“What?”

Kyle slapped himself and said in embarrassment. “Sorry, I used the wrong term! I meant to say Miss Lane is not drawn to your looks or wealth but wishes only to leave you. Such a woman is not easy to find! In this materialistic world, she is one of a kind!”

Chandler chuckled coldly. “One of a kind? She asked me to give me 100 million dollars on the plane…”

Kyle wanted to tell his boss he was an idiot but didn’t dare to. Instead, he coolly analyzed the situation for him. “Mr. Frost, think about it. If she is indeed a greedy woman, she should be thinking of ways to please you and make money out of you. Why would she want to leave you? If you think carefully about what she says or does, you’ll know whether she truly likes you or not.”

Chandler fell into deep thought. At that moment, he and Kyle had reached the bar counter, and the latter dismissed a male

attendant. To prevent Chandler from suspecting his relationship with Erin, Kyle clarified, “Mr. Frost, I only spoke up for Miss

Lane because I feel she is right for you, and I know it’s not my place to interfere with anything. All I want to ask is this–are you

willing to let her go back to her ex–husband?”

At the mention of Erin’s ex–husband, Chandler’s face turned grim.

Seeing his look, Kyle continued. “You wanted me to keep an eye on lan, and this morning I received an email from Hans saying that lan had broken up with Tracy. However, he hasn’t pursued Ms. Wood romantically, and I wonder if this has anything to do with Miss Lane.”

“Okay, I got it. You may go now.”

“Yes, Mr. Frost.”

After Kyle was gone. Chandler walked to the counter and poured himself a glass of vodka. Thinking of lan with an icy gaze. Chandler picked up the glass and downed it in one shot.

“So lan is still thinking of getting back together with Erin. Over my dead body!” he thought.

That night in the hotel room. Chandler took off his bathrobe after his shower and lay beside Erin.

Her back to him, Erin pretended to have fallen asleep.

He stared at her quavering back and kissed it, then turned her over by holding down her shoulder. “Erin, do you think I would let you be if you pretended to be asleep?”

Erin opened her eyes. “If you want to have sex, then do it quickly. I’d like to sleep early!”

What she said affected his mood, but he wasn’t ready to let her off the hook. “Fine, go get it then.”

She asked knowingly. “Get what?”

An impatient look flashed across Chandler’s eyes. “What do you think? If you don’t want to get it, then no safe sex tonight.”

Seeing him leaning over to kiss her, Erin hastily stopped him with both hands and stiffened her face. “No way! What if I get pregnant?”

“Then are you going to get it? It’s your call.”

He didn’t seem to care, and Erin had no choice but to get out of bed. Seeing her reluctantly walking out of the bedroom. Chandler sneered.

“This stupid woman thinks I didn’t see what she did,” he thought.

Relieved that the bedroom was across the swimming pool and he wouldn’t be able to see her, she slunk over and searched the bushes wearing only her nightgown.

Unable to find it after a long while, she heard a pleasant male voice coming from behind. “Are you looking for this?”
