The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Chapter 1389

Cotes obvious disdain hit Wendy like a slap in the face. She bit her lip before saying, Dad, we don’t necessarily need

to rely on the Harper family Princess Ava has some business in Y Country too. If it’s a win-win deal, I’m sure she’d

consider helping us. The national banquet of Y Country is coming up, and it’s a good chance to discuss this with

her.”

Cole was momentarily stunned. Discussing business with Princess Ava?

At these words, Grace also had a sudden realization: Right, they could lean on her cousin.

Cole’s anger seemed to lessen a bit, “And how can she help? As far as I know, she doesn’t have that much business

under her belt either. The only thing that’s been hot lately is her fashion brand RM, and it even made a fool of itself

at Fashion Week. On top of that, her two daughters are still running it!”

As a royal princess, having her own brand was a sign of the queen’s favor. But how much could a small

international fashion brand really offer to help him? Wendy pursed her lips, “She’s been around for so many years,

she must have more than just this one business line. As a princess, she has to keep things under wraps for

appearances sake. But if we ask for her help, I’m sure she won’t just stand by. Like her nephew, Viscount Rhys has a

lot of assets in Y Country”

Cole suddenly fell silent, considering whether this proposal was feasible. After a while, he finally said “All this talk is

just because you want to go to the Y Country banquet with me, isn’t it?”

Wendy bit her lip. “I hope you’ll agree. The banquet is a big deal, and I want to see what it’s like to broaden my

horizons. I hope to step out of my comfort zone and do something truly beneficial for the family.”

Cole stared at her, his eyes dasrk and unreadable.

After a pause, he finally let out a sigh and said, “Alright, what you said makes sense. You can go to the banquet.

Start getting ready. You and your sister will go with me.”

“What?!” As soon as Cole finished speaking, Grace’s sharp voice rang out, “Why do you have to bring that…

Phoebe?!”

Grace was about to call her a tramp, but Cole’s gaze stopped her.

Cole’s frown made Grace quickly change her tune, swallowing her anger and saying, “Cole, I mean, there’s been a

lot of talk about the past lately. My cousin has been dragged into it too, she’s not happy, and I bet she definitely

won’t like Phoebe. You’re just asking for trouble by bringing her now. Besides, what’s the point of her going? Wendy

is the heir to the Alonso family. She can handle the networking on her own.”

Cole’s brows furrowed, “What they say is their business, it’s not necessarily true. You shouldn’t take it to heart. As

for who will be the heir to the Alonso family, that’s not settled yet. What’s wrong with the two sisters supporting

each other? Do you really think Wendy can handle everything on her own?”

If before it was Grace’s speculation, now Cole’s words made it clear. He intended for Phoebe to be involved in the

future management of Alonso Corporation

How could this be?

“Cole, Wendy has been studying abroad all these years. She’s put in and suffered so much. Is it fair to her if you…”

Grace said.

“Mom!” Wendy suddenly interrupted Grace. She knew her mother was usually more rational than her, but there

were certain lines she wouldn’t cross. Like Phoebe Phoebe’s mother, and the whole Alonso family.

“Mom, Dad’s right, Phoebe is part of the Alonso family too. Her knowledge could be helpful to me in the future. I

agree to go with Phoebe.” Wendy said.

Cole didn’t want to argue with Grace any further. He knew her thoughts well after all these years.

Phoebe wasn’t her biological daughter, so her bias was

standable. He didn’t want to argue with her because he didn’t want to fight. He waved his hand and

Wendy patted her shoulder, “Don’t be mad, Mom. Phoebe is part of the Alonso family too. She might really be able

to help me in the future”

“Are you willing to share the Alonso family with her?” Grace glared at her.

Wendy chuckled coldly. “Of course not. The Alonso family is mine. Her helping me has nothing to do with that. I’m

just making good use of resources” Grace looked at her, thought for a moment, and her face gradually softened,

“You’re right. We can’t support her for nothing

At the hospital, Presley had woken up. After a series of checks, he was out of danger and transferred to a VIP ward.

After having lunch with Chloe, Damon took her to the ward. Before entering the ward, Chloe suddenly grabbed

Damon’s hand. You go in. I don’t want to upset Presley

Damon looked at her but didn’t say anything He just held her waist tightly and walked into the ward with her

At the moment, Nathan and Yulia were keeping Presley company in the ward Anya was lying by the bed, her big

eyes fixed on the pale old man on the bed. Seeng the two people at the door, Anya’s big eyes lit up.

“Damon, Chloe!” She ran towards the door

Chloe bent down and skillfully scooped Anya into her arms, making a ‘shush” gesture, Anya instantly got it, nodding

her head vigorously

Presley awkwardly turned his gaze towards the doorway, noticing the woman next to Damon holding a child. Her

usualty aloof face was now laced with a mild smile, her eyes tender. Her way of holding the child was incredibly

practiced, and hit shushing gesture at Anya fult so natural

Her gentleness towards the child was simply captivating He never imagined a woman like Chloe would center her

life around family. He never thought she would be taking care of a child. It felt really out of place

Watching Chloe bend over to pick up Anya, Damon slightly furrowed his brows, reaching but to take Anya from her

arms.

Chloe looked at him a little confused, catching his slightly gloomy expression She blinked, then cracked a knowing

smile. He was probably wored she was overexerting herself

it was fine for her to hold children before, but now she had two little ones in her belig, she had to be extra careful

But, he was really being overly cautious. He even thought of some unnecessary details that the hadn’t
