Chapter 950
At this moment, Chloe and Sierra were once again the center of attention.
Elizabeth even came over and asked, “What’s going on?”
Sierra, still fuming, glared at Chloe and shouted, “She stole my bracelet!”
As Sierra’s sharp voice died down, the entire venue fell silent.
What kind of occasion was this tonight? Although it was a welcome back party, every woman present was from high
society. Normally, stealing was a lowly act. And in the eyes of the people present, it could completely ruin a
person’s reputation.
What did it mean to completely ruin one’s reputation?
Chloe stood in place, pondering for a few seconds. A hint of mocking smile flashed across her face.
Really, no stone left unturned.
The people around Chloe looked at her with doubtful, resentful, and disdainful gazes.
“Indeed, it’s always best to marry someone from the same social class. Some folks from ordinary families seem to
have more than their fair share of bad habits.”
“Yeah, she’s marrying into a rich family, and she can have anything she wants. Why doesn’t she fix this habit?”
“Maybe she’s used to it. Whenever she sees something she likes, her first reaction is to claim it for herself…”
Some people around were whispering to each other. Although their voices were intentionally kept low, they still
floated faintly into everyone’s ears.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Stole your bracelet?” Elizabeth’s face turned cold. “First, she wouldn’t do such a thing based on her character. And
as the wife of the Harper family, she would never do something so disgraceful. You better make sure that you didn’t
get it wrong, and don’t slander people!”
Elizabeth’s cold, angry voice silenced all the whispers around. Wendy frowned slightly from the side and glanced at
Elizabeth. Just now, she was clearly dissatisfied with Chloe. But now, she stood up and defended her without any
reason.
Maybe because she was shocked tonight, Chloe no longer pretended to be strong. The trust and protection from
Elizabeth made Chloe’s eyes a little sour.
This must be a mother’s unconditional trust and protection for her daughter. She had felt it before, but after so
many years, this feeling suddenly emerged, catching her off guard and making her feel touched.
Her eyes trembled slightly, and a faint smile appeared on her indifferent face, warm and soft.
Damon looked at her expression, his eyes dimmed slightly, and he walked up to her, pulling her into his arms.
“I’ll take you home.”
Damon’s appearance made everyone become serious. They stepped back a few steps, not daring to say another
word.
“You can’t leave!”
Sierra suddenly shouted again, striding to block Chloe and Damon.
An extremely cold aura almost froze the entire venue. Everyone gasped in shock, not daring to make a sound.
Looking at Damon’s cold and handsome face, Sierra’s legs suddenly went weak.
“Damon…”
“Move.” Damon’s voice was indescribably cold.
At this moment, Chloe held Damon’s arm tightly and said softly,
“Damon, we need to solve this problem, otherwise it will cause misunderstanding.”
She had not done anything to be ashamed of, and she could not let people think she was a thief, or an uncouth
person.
She could not accept such a stigma. Now, could not accept any stains on her.
Damon frowned, holding Chloe’s hand tightly.
Elizabeth also said from the side, “We need to solve this problem. Damon, you don’t have to be so tense.”
She was indeed a little surprised. She knew that her son liked Chloe very much, but she didn’t expect him to care to
this extent.
Chloe did look unwell, but she could still hold on. He actually wanted to forcibly take Chloe away without knowing
the whole story.
What about her reputation? What about the Harper family’s reputation? Did he not care about anything?
“I will deal with this issue.” Damon said decisively.
Chloe gently pushed Damon away, smiling at him. “Wait for me here for a while. I’ll handle this myself.”
Damon held her hand tightly and refused to let go.
Chloe looked at him, “Don’t you trust me?”
Damon’s eyes moved slightly, he looked down at her, and finally let go of her hand.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmChloe was very touched and gave him a reassuring smile. Then, she slowly turned around, facing Sierra, the smile
on her face had returned to indifference.
“Why do you say that I took your bracelet?”
As soon as the bracelet was mentioned, Sierra was instantly infuriated.
“You’re still denying it? When I bought the bracelet today, Wendy, Elizabeth, even Katie were there. You dare to say
you didn’t fancy my bracelet? You even argued with me over it. But in the end, Tbought the bracelet. You must
have been unwilling, right? So just now in the bathroom, you took my bracelet that I left on the washstand when I
wasn’t looking!”
Sierra said so much and mentioned several witnesses. It sounded very credible.
Chloe scoffed, “Since I gave it to you, I won’t fight for it again. If I really wanted it, you wouldn’t have had the
chance to buy it in the first place.”
She said, looking at Wendy who was standing aside.
“Ms. Wendy was there too, right?”
Everyone looked at Wendy. Damon included. That sharp look was like an arrow shooting at her, Wendy’s heart
trembled, and she involuntarily took a half step back. Then she quickly realized that it was inappropriate and
hurriedly said, “What do you mean by that, Chloe? Are you accusing me of taking Sierra’s bracelet?”
Chloe smiled faintly, “Well, now that you mention it, it’s not impossible. But what I wanted to ask just now was, since
you were there, did you see whether or not I took her bracelet?”
“Il Sierra thinks I took the bracelet, it could only be after I left the bathroom I remember clearly that you were fixing
your hair in front of the mirror the entire time. Sierra said she left her bracelet on the washstand. If I wanted to
take it, you should be the first one to notice.”
Wendy’s face instantly turned gloomy; she clenched her teeth tightly.
This damn woman She actually wanted to get her involved.
