The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Chapter 969

Chloe gritted her teeth and slapped Ivan across the face with all her strength. Ivan’s face swung to one side

As Chloe tried to get up, Ivan swiftly pinned her down again.

The fruit Damon had cut for her was knocked over and scattered on the floor.

“Stay away…!” Chloe was terrified to her core. This stranger made her skin crawl; his breath made her nauseous.

“Stay away. If you touch me one more time… I’ll kill you!”

Chloe’s voice trembled as she spoke. Her clothes and hair were a mess, but she was still so beautiful.

Ivan had lost all sense of reason, too overwhelmed to think about anything else. He had only one thought right now,

to possess this woman who he found irresistible.

Desire consumed him. He gazed at Chloe’s delicate and beautiful collarbone, wanting to see more, and began to rip

her clothes off

With a tearing sound, he ripped her nightgown, exposing her shoulder.

Chloe’s mind went into a frenzy at the sound. Ivan watched Chloe struggle more and more fiercely, which only

excited him further, If… if this man raped her tonight, she would rather die, she would rather die!

Ivan’s eyes were filled with lust and depravity, aching with desire.

“You’re so beautiful. I knew it the moment I saw you’ll make you feel good… trust me..

As he spoke, he reached out to touch her shoulder, trying to kiss her smooth, round skin.

In her panic, Chloe saw the glint of a small knife next to the scattered fruit. Without hesitation, she grabbed the

knife and plunged it into his stomach with all her might.

The knife went in deep, fueled by her fear and anger.

The sound of the blade piercing flesh echoed in Chloe’s ears Almost immediately, Ivan’s blood splashed onto her

face and body. He stiffened, looking down in disbelief at the knife in his stomach and Chloe’s blood-soaked hand.

“You…

“What’s going on? Ahhh!!!” A server who heard the commotion ran in only to be met with a bloody scene. He

screamed in horror, his face turning pale.

Ivan clutched his stomach and slumped to the side

Chloe’s eyes went blank; she backed away, looking deathly pale. She curled up, seemingly unable to recover from

her fear, her teeth chattering She stared at Ivan’s motionless body. His dark red blood soaked the floor, gradually

spreading…

Her mind went blank, and all she could do was hold herself tightly

The servants who rushed in were stunned. Aside from screaming, they stood in place, not knowing what to do.

Presumably their minds were blank too.

It seemed like forever before Chloe finally spoke, her voice barely audible over the sound of running water “Give

me the phone.”

The sudden request startled the servant, who quickly pulled out his phone from his apron pocket and handed it to

Chloe, his hands trembling.

Chloe reached for the phone, her blood-stained hand shaking. She wiped her hand on her clothes, then dialed the

number for the main house on the servant’s phone.

The dial tone seemed to drag on for centuries.

“Hello?” A strange woman’s voice answered.

Chloe blinked, gazing at the motionless man on the floor. She tried to control her emotions, but her whole body

seemed to be shaking.

“Hello?” The woman spoke again since there was no reply.

Chloe swallowed hard, her lips trembling for a while before she managed to speak, “I need to speak to Damon,”

Only a few people knew the number for the Harper family’s main house and could address: Damon by his first

name. The servant thought for a moment, then said, “Alright, please hold.”

The servant walked off with the phone towards the dining room, where he approached Damon and said, “Mc.

Harper, Mrs. Harper is on the phone for you.”

Freya, still seething from an argument with Nathan, seized the opportunity to mock, “See how close our future Mrs.

Harper and Damon are? They just parted ways and she’s already missing him. This is just a family dinner I wonder

what will happen when business talks run late, or even overnight.”

Damon frowned, giving Freya a cold state that sent shivers down her spine. Freya then turned to Anand, “Where’s

Ivan? Why isn’t he back yet?”

Ariana shook her head, “I don’t know, I haven’t seen him since I came out of the bathroom”
