Chapter 1108
“I didn’t want to argue with you, not because you’re tough, but because I didn’t want to stoop to your level. To see
you as an important opponent would be beneath me,’ she said, narrowing her eyes in a dangerous glint, an aura of
coldness enveloping her.
“But understand this, my patience is not a free pass for your arrogance. Where do you get off acting so high and
mighty?”
Chloe glanced at Stephen and Rupin who were standing off to the side and smirked, “Is it because of you two?”
Rupin looked obviously uncomfortable while Stephen’s face turned ashen.
“Ms. Chloe… This woman has nothing to do with us.”
“Mr. Stephen,” Chloe smiled faintly, “Rhoda claims to be Rupin’s girlfriend, how can you say she has nothing to do
with you?”
Stephen’s mouth twitched, “Our Dudley family would never accept such a woman. It’s impossible.”
“Why? She’s with Rupin every day. They’re public now. Mr. Stephen, you work for Harper Group, you should
consider the company’s reputation.”
Stephen’s eyes twitched violently. He opened his eyes wide, pondering, “You mean to… have Rupin marry this
woman?”
Chloe smiled subtly, not saying anything.
Damon, who had been sitting on the couch, commented casually, “If this situation affects the company’s reputation
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtand causes a one percent drop in the stock price, can you afford that? If you can, then there’s no need to discuss
this further.”
Stephen’s face changed and he wobbled slightly.
The Harper Group’s stock… That was a massive amount of money. Even a one percent drop was more than he
could handle.
“Mr. Harper…”
Stephen looked distressed, this woman was like a curse to the Dudley family. If Rupin married her, what good days
would the Dudley family have? But if he didn’t, even a slight drop in the company’s stock was something they
couldn’t afford.
Stephen glanced at Rhoda, his eyes sharp as if he wanted to see through her. Rhoda, initially confused by Chloe’s
proposal, shivered when she saw Stephen’s gaze. Finally, Stephen glared at her, clenched his teeth, and said,
“Fine!”
“Dad!” Rupin was the first to object.
“Shut up!” Stephen, regardless of Damon’s presence, yelled out in anger.
“But I don’t want to marry this awful woman!”
“That’s your problem! If you hadn’t messed with her, would all this be happening?”
Rupin clenched his lips and glanced at Rhoda with resentment.
Rhoda shivered nervously, as if she had just realized something, and blurted out, “No… I don’t want to… marry
him…”
Chloe raised an eyebrow, smiling down at her, “Weren’t you afraid I’d steal Rupin? You wanted to marry into wealth,
right? I’m granting your wish. Not only will I not steal your man, but I’ll also play matchmaker. Congratulations,
Rhoda, you’re going to marry Rupin, just like you wanted.”
Rhoda just shook her head vehemently, as if trying to oppose this with all her might.
This was too much! Now that Rupin and Stephen hated her, and they were being forced to accept her. Not only
would she not get the prestige and wealth she deserved, but she might also be subjected to all kinds of
unimaginable abuse.
She didn’t want it!
She didn’t want to marry into a family where she would be oppressed and have to cater to others. Her wealth
would be dependent on others. She didn’t want to marry him! “No! I won’t marry him!”
Rupin, young and hot–blooded, was used to choosing women, not being rejected by them. He was instantly angry
and kicked her in the chest. “Shut up!! haven’t even said anything yet, who asked you to speak? You think I want to
marry you?”
“Then don’t! I know you’re just playing with me!”
“Say one more word and see if I don’t hit you!”
Rupin lowered his voice, glaring at her, his eyes full of warning.
Rhoda was on the verge of tears. She looked up at Chloe, her face unreadable. “Weren’t you the one who didn’t
want anything to do with me? Then why are you doing this to me?!”
Chloe said, “You’re the one who pushed your luck and crossed my line. If I don’t deal with you, I’ll look weak and
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmincapable. How can I let you disrespect me and do nothing?”
“…You’re too much!”
“That’s because you asked for it. I let you off time and time again.”
Chloe was embraced by Damon, his scent filled her nostrils. Chloe smiled slightly, looking at Rhoda,
“Congratulations, you’re soon to be married into a rich family.”
“Let’s go.”
Damon’s voice echoed softly, Chloe turned her head and left the room alongside him. The two of them together
were unexpectedly well–matched, even their silhouettes were perfectly in sync.
It was hard to imagine any woman standing by Damon’s side. So when a woman who not only didn’t pale in
comparison but complemented him perfectly appeared, they were repeatedly stunned and incredulous.
Without the main characters, the others naturally dispersed. As Damon and Chloe exited, a scream and a woman’s
cry for help came from room 1613 across the way.
“Makenna, I’m sorry! Don’t do this!”
“Don’t call me! How dare you seduce my husband. How can you do it?!”
“Stop hitting me, my clothes…”
Hearing these sounds, Chloe frowned slightly. Makenna still had some sense left, she could tell from the surveillance
that Tiffany was still hiding in Austin’s room.
But the two of them didn’t stop, they just left this disgusting floor. The entourage followed behind them, leaving
Nate to handle the aftermath. For the Dudley family, it was safe to say their days of living high on the hog are over.
