The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Chapter 1670

Everyone watched him walk away. The palpable tension seemed to thicken, hanging heavy in the air.

Damon sat motionless, and his lips were pressed into a thin line.

Chloe held the apple Damon had just given her Juice trickled through her fingers, but she was at a loss for words.

She was usually adept at diffusing uncomfortable situations or finding solutions, but this time, she felt out of her

depth

Matters of the heart were never her strong suit. She had seen Stanley’s emotional outburst and didn’t know how to

pretend it hadn’t happened. She had no idea how to face Stanley, let alone how to explain the situation to Damon.

Promises made so earnestly were broken just as easily. She didn’t want to hurt Stanley, but she was completely

clueless about what to do c2

She took a bite of the apple, and her expression was still stricken. Her mind was filled with the look on Stanley’s

face, something she had never seen

before

Damon watched her from the corner of his eye, realizing that his presence was not reflected in her current state of

mind. His heart tightened. He had only said those things to make Stanley give up on Chloe, but now it seemed to

have backfired.

“What are you thinking about?” His voice, deep and icy cold, broke the silence.

Chloe blinked, turning to look at him. A complex emation flickered in her eyes.

Damon’s face darkened. Chloe placed the apple on the coffee table, using a napkin to wipe her hand. She sank

back into the couch

“No nothing.”

In this world, there were some things that, no matter how much you pondered over, you could never find a perfect

solution. Even a near–perfect solution wouldn’t cut it. The only answer was how selfish you truly were.

Damon watched her silently for a while. Even though he knew she was troubled, he still didn’t know what to say.

After a long pause, he finally stood up and ordered Nate, “Get ready. We’re heading back to the city tomorrow”

“Yes, sir

Nate quickly acknowledged Damon. Sensing the chilly atmosphere, he hesitated before asking, “Sir, about Ms.

Alonso’s situation, what are our plans once we return to the city“”

Damon contemplated for a moment before responding. “She’s dead”

Nate glanced at Chloe before nodding. Understood.”

Wendy was dead

She died in the gray zone on the outskirts of P City, a place everyone avoided

By the time Chloe and the others returned to P City the next day, this news had already exploded in the media. No

one had any sympathy for Wendys death. She had brought it upon herself, not respecting others lives. She was the

one who started the kidnapping, so why would anyone feel sorry for her when she ended up dead?

Chloe didn’t expect Damon to blow up the situation like this. She thought it would only be revealed if someone

asked But now, it was clear that Damon had deliberately stirred up the incident. She didn’t know what he was up to,

but she didn’t bother to find out either. With him handling the aftermath, she didn’t need to worry

However

With one Wendy gone, there would be another Wendy…

Not long after they returned, Yasmine and the others were confirmed to be safe Cole and Grace immediately came

to visit

The media and the Alonso family currently surrounded the Harper family’s mansion Presley made a call and

summoned Damon and Chloe back.

Right now, the Harper family was in complete chaos Grace sat in the yard of the mansion, holding a newspaper,

crying, and screaming

Presley stood on the side with a cane. His face was ashen, and his muscles were trembling intermittently He–glared

furiously at the two arriving with a bunch of bodyguards

Grace saw the two of them and immediately got up from the ground, rushing towards Damon Tell met Where did

you hide my daughter? How could she possibly be dead? Did you hide her?”

Grace was stopped by two bodyguards two meters away from him “Damon, give me back my daughter! Bastard!

What did my daughter do to you for you to be so heartless?”

Chloe frowned, and as expected, she couldn’t stand to see Damon being bullied. “Your daughter is truly dead” She

used the simplest words to hurt Grace

Grace abruptly looked up at her Her eyes were filled with rage, looking just like Wendy’s crazed expression “You”

“That’s right, it’s me” She admitted in a light tone, shocking everyone around her with her indifference toward a

human life. I could, I would want to feed her a few more bullets. I shouldn’t have let her die so easily!”

Grace swayed, her eyes rolling back as she almost fainted “You”

“I’ve always said, don’t provoke me. If you don’t mess with me, we can coexist peacefully. Before you came here to

demand the Harper family for your daughter, you should know that she was the one who kidnapped my mother

first She took my mother to such a dangerous place and lured me there

Chapter 1670

with the intention of taking our lives. Now, she’s only reaping what she sowed.”

She left everyone speechless with her words. Grace’s face was ghastly. Her lips were trembling, and she didn’t

know what to say.

The pain of losing a child was not something one could fake, but that didn’t mean she deserved sympathy

1s she really dead? Did you really kill her?”

Grace still found it hard to grasp the reality of the situation After all, without witnessing it herself, it seemed

unfathomable that her daughter could have met such a fate while everyone else seemed to be just fine.

“Damon, this can’t be happening, can it?” She implored. No matter what she did wrong, it was because she cared

for you, right? You grew up together, you wouldn’t just stand by and watch her get killed, would you?”

Damon’s response was chilling. “She deserved what she got.”

“But you two was still alive. Even if you wanted to punish her, why did it have to end this way…

“Ms. Grace, Chloe cut her off “it was your daughter who dragged me into this deadly game. If she hadn’t died, it

would have been me and my mother instead! You’d better get clear about the stakes here.”
