The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Chapter 1585

It was as if the other party knew he was investigating them, revealing only superficial information and keeping

everything else cloaked in mystery.

He was even more clueless about who this Obsidian was!

In the past, it was Damon who was invited to the Global Economic Summit, and he’d never mentioned the Obsidian

Group afterwards. When asked, he’d simply say he hadn’t paid attention, and he wasn’t sure.

He’d also asked Cole, but the answer was always the same, that Obsidian hadn’t attended.

The more mysterious they were, the more curious and restless he became. Yet, he had to admit, the head of the

Obsidian Group was indeed a rare business genius.

Clear–sighted, shrewd, and decisive!d2

In just a few years, he had transformed a small and near–bankrupt enterprise into a global leader. How could such

a person be overlooked?

This was why he was particularly concerned about the Obsidian Group. Dissatisfied, he primarily focused on the

Harper Group.

Thankfully, under Damon’s leadership, the Harper Group had also been on an upward trajectory. The day when the

Harper family could reclaim the top spot in the international market was just around the corner. But who would

have guessed that a woman named Chloe would appear out of nowhere, completely diverting Damon’s attention.

Eventually, he even gave up on the company.

Presley took a deep breath at this thought. In the past, he’d always been proud when speaking of his grandson.

Now, just thinking about him filled him with a stifling frustration.

He had always wanted the best for the Harper family, and had pinned all his hopes on Damon.

“The Harper family will definitely be invited. At that time, I’ll accompany you to the international business dinner

after the summit.” Presley said.

Robin frowned at these words, “Father, you’re not in a good condition. It’s best if you rest at home. I can handle the

international banquet on my own.”

The old man shook his head. “I’d rather go with you. I’m familiar with most of the corporate leaders who will be at

the banquet. I can introduce you to them.”

Recalling how the old man had personally taken Damon to his first international business dinner, Robin let go of his

slight dissatisfaction. He nodded gently, “As long as it doesn’t affect your health.”

“Alright.” Presley agreed. Now that he’d handed over the company to his second son, there was no reason to

suddenly strip him of his position.

As for Damón, if he was willing to return, they could discuss it then. But first, he needed to experience what it was

like to lose the protection of the Harper family.

“As for that woman, do what you think is best. Also, spread the word…” Presley added.

These days, all social platforms were filled with news about the Alonso family. Wendy, Cole, Grace’s actions, and

even their past were being dug up.

Eventually, someone summed it up:

“In the past, we thought the Alonso family was only eccentric because of that Ms. Wendy. Now it seems

that the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. The only decent person in the Alonso family is their second daughter.”

“Yes, Ms. Phoebe’s mother was from a well–educated family, gentle and graceful, also well–read with impeccable

manners. Thankfully, Phoebe took after her mother!”

“Indeed! Ms. Phoebe was always humble and unassuming. Now, a man is willing to pay three billion dollars to sever

her ties with the Alonso family. So, everyone, it’s better to be a good and honest person!”

The topics of the online discussion finally seemed to be turning around. Apart from that, the hottest topics were still

the film and clothing industries controlled by Chloe.

Then, in the evening, a piece of breaking news appeared online. [The old chairman of the Harper Group, Presley,

has declared that Damon is no longer to be given special treatment as the eldest grandson of the Harper family in

any company or situation.]

The news caused a stir. The public had been aware of the falling out between the grandfather and grandson after

the Alonso family’s business dinner the previous night. The old man had said something similar then. So when he

made this announcement today, no one doubted its authenticity.

“Wow, this old man is ruthless! He’s so harsh to his own grandson.”

“Is he trying to drive his own grandson into a corner?”

“What’s the big deal? Hasn’t this old man done all sorts of things? Back then, he threatened Damon with the

company’s inheritance to force him to marry Wendy, didn’t he?”

“I’m confused! Now that Wendy is in this state, and the Alonso family is in Ms. Summers’s hands! Does the old man

still want her as his granddaughter–in–law? Compared to Ms. Summers, she’s like day and night!”

“I really don’t understand this old man’s thinking!”

“So what if he’s no longer treated as the eldest grandson of the Harper family? As if without the Harper family,

people can’t survive! If Mr. Harper cared about this, he wouldn’t have chosen to give up the company in the first

place!”

“Even without the Harper family, there’s still Ms. Summers. Who dares to offend Ms Summers in P City?”

Damon and Chloe weren’t bothered upon hearing the news. Damon didn’t care, and Chloe knew Damon didn’t

care. Besides, compared to last night, she felt much more at ease now. Even though Damon didn’t. speak a word,

she knew he must have his own schemes.

Now, she was diligently searching for information on Azriel using her smartphone. However, all traces online had

been meticulously wiped clean. This, of course, was within Chloe’s expectations. If Azriel truly wanted. to maintain a

low–key persona, he naturally would not leave any breadcrumbs for others to trace. If Damon. genuinely had a

secret he wanted to keep from everyone, how could he let them know they might trace it back to him? If she hadn’t

seen Azriel at the hospital in the first place, she wouldn’t have suspected anything about him.

Not feeling too disappointed, she exited the screen and opened an online shopping platform, trying to pick. up

some snacks. She seized the moment while Damon was not looking, secretly placing several orders.

Before she got pregnant, she had restrained herself for the sake of her figure, not to mention she didn’t have much

desire for snacks. But recently, her taste buds had been acting up.She would leisurely surf the internet, and saliva

would start flowing whenever she saw snacks.

Previously, every snack she added to her shopping cart would ruthlessly be cleared out by Damon. Now, while he

wasn’t paying attention, she didn’t bother adding them to the cart anymore and directly purchased the best snacks

available!

She had barely completed the payment and hadn’t even had the chance to celebrate when a message arrived on

her WhatsApp.
