Chapter 1369
Elizabeth was sobbing on his chest, crying her heart out, “Don’t be like this. I’m telling the truth. I really need to
leave on my own. I know I’ve hurt you, but I can’t take it anymore.”
She was crying so hard and looked so pitiful. Royce’s cold face softened slightly. He was filled with pain, and he bent
down to hold Elizabeth, who was almost out of breath from crying.
“It’s too late now; let’s go back and rest. Tomorrow, I’ll take you away from here immediately. We’ll arrange a
private jet, okay?” Royce said.
“I don’t want to. I can…” Elizabeth said.
“Listen to me, okay?” Royce said.
Elizabeth didn’t say anything with tears streaming down. Their voices became more and more distant, until in the
end, even Elizabeth’s crying could hardly be heard. Royce carried Elizabeth and left the dining room without looking
back, never once looking at Presley. However, Presley was panicking for no reason. He didn’t know why, but he was
restless. He looked at Wendy, who was pale and dumbstruck. He asked, “Are you alright, Wendy?”
Wendy shook her head in a daze. She was clueless about what to say about the current situation.
alright.
The old man was also confused, “Go home if you’re alright. Don’t overthink. Royce and Elizabeth will probably leave
tomorrow. I guess James has already sent the message. Tomorrow is the most important day, so go home and rest.
Come with me to the board meeting!”
Hearing this, Wendy blinked in a daze, her thoughts gradually coming back. Since the news had been released,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtappearing at the Harper Group with Presley, did that confirm her identity?
And Damon’s words just now, could it be possible that he was following the old man’s arrangement?
Probably, right? Otherwise, Damon would lose the position of the Harper Group’s heir! By marrying her, his position
could be solidified.,
If he chose Chloe, Damon would be kicked out of the Harper family. Any man wouldn’t choose the latter, right?
It should be, definitely! Wendy kept convincing herself. She had defined a very small or non–existent choice as
something that would definitely happen.
But thinking about the harsh words Elizabeth said to her just now, she felt like every cell in her body was about to
explode. Even if she married into the Harper family, she still had to endure others‘ insults!
It was so infuriating!
Clenching her fists secretly, Wendy’s eyes became colder.
The mess in the entire dining room was finally left to the servants.
Marina sneaked out and called Chloe when no one was paying attention.
Chloe was currently reading the news on her phone,
The temporary board meeting of the Harper Group tomorrow, and the just–released news about Damon and
Wendy’s upcoming wedding. When Chloe saw these two news items, she immediately understood that Presley was
starting to exert pressure.
But no matter what, Damon was his own grandson. Didn’t he understand his grandson? Even if he unilaterally
announced the wedding date, if Damon was unwilling, who could force him to get married?
As for tomorrow’s temporary board meeting of the Harper Group. She could still clearly remember what he once
said. Not everyone could influence his decisions.
When the phone rang, she knew it was Marina and immediately answered the call, “Hello, Marina, what’s up?”
“Ah, miss! Damon came back for dinner with his parents today, and had a big fight with Presley. Presley was so
angry he smashed the dining table with his cane! Elizabeth was also furious, and she pushed all the dinner on the
table onto the floor. Marina said.
Chloe frowned, and her face immediately became serious, “Why did they fight so fiercely?”
“Because the miss of the Alonso family was also there. She tried to serve Damon some food, but he threw it all into
the trash can! That’s how it started, then they said some harsh words, Presley was unhappy, and it turned into what
it is now. Mrs. Harper cried later, saying she wanted to leave on her own, but Royce didn’t let her, so he took her
away. I heard they might be leaving on a private jet tomorrow. And the last thing Damon said, he told Presley to do
whatever he wants, I’m not sure, I don’t know if this means he agrees with Presley’s decision. I just want you to be
prepared.” Marina said.
After listening, Chloe felt a bit better, “I see, Marina, thank you for telling me!”
“Ah, it’s no problem. Everything was going well, you guys already got the marriage certificate, and Presley still
wants to do this. Speaking of this, when you have time, you should go to the city hall to confirm whether you and
Damon are still legally married. Presley wants to interfere with these things, and I think he will definitely find
someone to end your marriage relationship in private. Otherwise, if Damon really marries Ms. Alonso, wouldn’t that
be bigamy? This would have a negative impact on the Harper family. I think Presley would consider this. And that
Ms. Alonso, Damon’s attitude is so obvious, how could she not understand?” Marina said.
Chloe tugged at the corner of her mouth.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDidn’t understand? Indeed! She had become a bit pathological.
Chloe seemed to think of something, then a smile appeared on her face, “Marina, you should get some rest after
cleaning up. Good night.”
Okay, good night.” Marina said.
After hanging up the phone, Chloe opened her contacts, and directly found Axel’s phone number. The call went
through.
“It’s me.” Chloe said.
“Holy moly, we’re not in the same country, can’t you check the time difference?” The person on the other end was
clearly woken up.
“Sorry, I just wanted to ask, how’s the progress? Have the contracts been settled?” Chloe asked.
The other person took a deep breath, patient in tone, “Thank you, the mission has been accomplished smoothly. I
have a flight to catch tomorrow morning. Anything else you need?”
Chloe raised an eyebrow, her face bright with a grin, “So, what’s up with Cole and his gang?”
“I couldn’t care less what they’re up to But we do share the same flight! My people deliberately booked the same
flight as Cole.” Axel said.
Now, that was interesting. Chloe had to hold back a chuckle; the scene painted was just too hilarious, “Alright, what
time is your flight? I’ll give you guys a hand again tomorrow!”
“Help us with what?” Axel asked.
“When you return in triumph, of course someone needs to witness it!” Chloe said.
