Chapter 1546
While seeing Cole off, Robin walked him all the way to the front gate of Harper’s Mansion.
Cole said, “I heard that before Damon left the Harper Group, he plunged most of the funds into a new development
project?”
Robin pressed his lips together tightly, a shadow flickering in his eyes. He replied, “I’m really sorry that I failed to
help Alonso Corporation back then I didn’t expect him to do this. As far as I know, that project just started being
planned a few months ago. From design to planning, it was all him, and no one else was involved. Seems like, he
had this move planned out all along
He knew that the Harper Group would eventually fall into my hands, and even knew that the Alonso family would
seek help from the Harper family in their time of trouble, so he used the money for the project in advance. Despite
his young age, he plays a deep game. He pushed things forward without a ripple, leaving no way out for others‘
He never thought his nephew had any particular talent, but now, some of his actions really put fear in him. Such a
sharp–minded junior was hard to ignore.c2
Hearing his words, Cole just smiled. “No matter how smart Damon is, without the Harper family, he won’t be able to
achieve anything significant Even if he has the ability to start over, the smart ones won’t give him that chance,
right?”
Robin smiled, “My nephew, he’s just too hot–headed. But he’s young, it’s good for him to go through some things.”
Cole chuckled, “Yeah, you guys should knock him down a peg or two. Talking big about going all out against the
Harper Group is one thing, but actually doing it? That’s not gonna be a walk in the park. From what I see, his mind is
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtall on women these days. How would he have time to go against the Harper Group?”
After saying goodbye to Cole, Robin stood at the door of Harper’s Mansion for a long time.
Perhaps Cole was right! Without the Harper Group, Damon was nothing. Even if he had great ability and wanted to
start over, there was no way Robin was going to let that happen.
But given Presley’s recent mindset and attitude, it seemed he always had an important position in the Harper
family. The power to control the Harper family was still in Damon’s hands. If one day Presley really summoned
Damon back, then the Harper Group was surely his again. He needed to find a way to eliminate Presley’s thoughts
about Damon.
Chloe won the lawsuit but pissed off the public. On top of that, Damon temporarily blocked negative comments
about Chloe online, and now the online sentiment was almost entirely against Chloe.
Those who were neutral or supported Chloe before had started to change their position to some extent.
In just an afternoon, the negative comments Damon had just removed popped up again like mushrooms after the
rain. Damon read some of the comments online with a senous expression. He couldn’t help but log into his account,
ready to personally respond, only to have his phone snatched away halfway
“Alright, if looking at this bothers you, then don’t.” Chloe, in her pajamas, leaned against Damon’s back, rested her
chin on his shoulder, glanced at the comments on his phone, and smirked mockingly.
Damon held her waist tightly, pulled her in front of him, and trapped her in his arms, a cold anger flickering in his
eyes. “You see what they ve said about you? And you still have a smile on your face?! His voice wasn’t loud, but it
was like a low drumbeat, enough to shake one s heart.
Chloe’s smile deepened “You probably haven’t seen me get slammed worse, have you? When the rumor in school
was that i stole Keiras perfume formula and that I seduced the judges in the competition, how much nasty stuff
have I been through? These are only visible, but unheard, and compared to back then, these are nothing!”
Damon’s face was still gloomy.
“Their words can’t come true, it’s not like they can achieve whatever they say. If that were the case, they would
have made their fortunes and become the richest people in the world by now. They can swear at me all they want,
but they are not living better than me. These insignificant words, you don’t have to take them to heart”
Damon looked gloomy, reached out, and gently poked her forehead. “Don’t you think you’re contradicting yourself?
Who was it that asked me to help deal with these comments this afternoon?!”
Chloe smiled, “It was me, but I suddenly felt like letting those people who I always bully have some fun. This is a
good opportunity to let them vent a bit Or else they might hold it in for too long, can’t vent, get anxious, and hire a
hitman to get rid of me in secret. Wouldn’t that be more troublesome? Who knew you were so gung–ho, I just
thought about backing out, and you’ve already handled half of it
Damon stared at her for a long time, then suddenly sneered. “What do you mean handled half of it, Chloe, you
obviously set me up!”
Chloe shook her head, “I didn’t.”
Damon, “Say that again?”
Chloe nodded, “Okay, maybe a little”
Damon laughed, “Because of your stunt, this hot topic is about to be dominated by us two. Never thought I’d be an
ternet sensation because of you one day.”
Chloe. “Such a rare opportunity, for you, and surely for others too. “Chloe winked, her eyes full of cunning. It’s hard

she’s thinking
Damon raised an eyebrow, then the anger in his eyes faded, and he said lightly, “Fine. Let’s go with your plan, as
long as you’re happy”
Chloe looked at him with a touched expression, “Why are you so good to me?”
He asked, “What do you think?”
Chloe thought for a moment, then said, “You must’ve been keeping a mistress out there and feeling guilty towards
me. That’s why you’ve been so lenient with me. No. Stop that tickles. I’m sorry….
Before Chloe could even finish her sentence, Damon’s hands were already kneading her waist and the crook of her
arm. He deliberately chose Chloe’s most sensitive areas to tease. He said, “Go on, I want to hear about this
mistress of mine What’s her name? How stunning is she?”
Chloe, “Quit fooling around. I’m sorry…”
Right on cue, Damon stopped, released his grip, and carried her to the bed. He said, “If you’re done playing, then
go to sleep!”
Chloe lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling, and said, “Let me think, what moves will Ms Wendy make at tomorrow’s
business banquet?”
With a blink of an eye, Chloe rolled over, climbed onto Damon’s belly, and asked with a smile, “Are you considered a
tycoon now?”
