The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Chapter 962

Damon sighed, “Chloe, it ain’t something you can just toy around with.”

“I just want to have it. You think I’d use it to kill?”

“That’s a killing tool.” Damon’s voice was calm, but it gave off a terrifying vibe.

Chloe nonchalantly nodded. “Just in case.”

“What?” Damon furrowed his brows.

Holding her cup of water, Chloe took a sip, turned to Damon, and said with a light chuckle,

“Give me a gun as a backup, if you betray me, I’ll use it to kill you. If you get another woman, i’d kill her too, how

’bout that?”

Damon chuckled, “Are you trying to provoke me?”

*Kinda.

Damon took the warm cup from her hand, poured her another glass of water, put it aside, and casually took her

hand into his. “Don’t you trust me?”

“Do you trust yourself? If you did, you wouldn’t hesitate to give me the gun,

Damon took Chloe’s hand, lightly biting her fingers.

“You sure have a way with words.”

A smile appeared on Chloe’s face. “So, will you give it to me?”

Damon kissed her fingers, then put her hand into his, gently squeezing it.

Till give it to you when we get back.”

Chloe raised an eyebrow, “P City? You’re not trying to bamboozle me, are you?”

Could P City be compared to Hong Kong?

“Bamboozle you? Hmm… now that you mention it, I need to consider if you can handle it.”

“Huh?”

Chloe was slightly puzzled, but she quickly understood what he meant. She silently pursed her lips.

In the afternoon, more and more people came to the house. Young people were either playful or working, and it

was almost time for dinner.

The house was bustling, but Presley was old and couldn’t handle the hustle and bustle, so he went back to his room.

Chloe and Damon chatted for a bit, had some soup, and then fell asleep.

A servant came to report, “Sir, Presley asks for you in the study.”

Damon frowned slightly, glanced at Chloe, who was sleeping soundly on the bed, and ordered in a quiet voice,

“Keep a good eye on her.”

“Yes, sir. Don’t you worry.”

Damon didn’t say anything more. He got up and left.

He entered Presley’s study through the back door, Nathan was also sitting on the couch inside, holding a tablet,

swiping, apparently playing a. game.

Presley was sitting behind the desk, leaning on his cane, waiting. Seeing him come in, Presley just pursed his lips

lightly.

“Did you remember what I had Nathan tell you yesterday?”

He sat on the couch, upright, his lips tight, his face stern.

The answer was clear as day.

Nathan stopped what he was doing but didn’t take his hand off the tablet screen. He steadily looked at Damon

across from him, observing his expression and movements.

“Damon

His cold reaction made the old man yell out in anger

It’s not possible. This matter won’t end that simply.”

“Wendy was exposed in public last night, your fiancée didn’t leave her any dignity. In front of so many people, at

least you should’ve spared her feelings. Enough’s enough.”

Damon’s face was chilling, “Why should I leave her any dignity? If Chloe didn’t have a chance to prove her

innocence, then she would have been the one losing her dignity, including me, and the Harper family. Did Wendy

ever think about other people’s dignity?”

The old man was so angry his chest heaved. Isn’t it all because she likes you!”

So, this matter is between me and her, andnobody else should butt in!” Damon said sternly. Clearly, there was no

room for negotiation.

“She’s just a girl, who likes you! I told her long ago, that the Harper family isn’t easy to get into, even if you do get

in, it won’t be as easy as you think! Since you chose to be with her, such things, even many more things in the

future, are what she needs to learn to bear. Are you going to avenge her in everything!?”

“Of course. I’m the one she likes, but Chloe is the one who got hurt, all because of me. Do you want me to forget

about this matter easily? Absolutely not.”

The old man stared at him, panting for a while, his eyes a little red, and after a long while, he gradually calmed

down, took a deep breath, and said, “Your mother has a big temper. She’s tough. She can’t tolerate any trivial

things, and if anyone makes her unhappy, she won’t hesitate, even if it’s the most important person! She doesn’t

like the Alonso family, can’t you see that?!”

“Just because I didn’t agree with her and your father’s marriage at first, she took your father away from me several

timest in front of me, she’s always elegant and noble, but it’s all fake!

“She pretends in front of me, and she pretends in this circle!

For what? In her heart, the dignity of the Harper family isn’t even important. What she really cares about is your

father’s dignity!

“She’s given so much. Doesn’t your father know? Doesn’t he know how many times she took him away from me?

Your father loves her to the point of infatuation. He doesn’t not cherish her. He just can’t deny your mother’s

sacrifices and her love for him!

“Why didn’t Chloe let you solve her problem last night? Have you ever thought she’s protecting your dignity? She

likes you, you shouldn’t deny what she’s willing to do for you! This way she’ll feel important, she’ll feel she has the

right to stand by your side!”

Damon’s face looked a bit vacant, he knew very well, that the words his grandfather said, almost described Chloe.

These words, each time they were said, were like a seed, thrown into his heart and quickly taking root

Seeing Damon’s expression change slightly, the old man continued, “Wendy is at fault in this matter, you have the

right to criticize her, but don’t overdo it. Previously, I had an idea was to let you or Nathan marry Wendy, who would

have a strong alliance with the Alonso family.”

Nathan immediately tensed up, his face looking defensive.

Really, did his brother drag him here just to get a scolding! He sure as hell didn’t want to be forcibly tied to Wendy

out of the blue.

“Grandpa, let me make this clear, forced relationships are a recipe for disaster. Wendy has no feelings for me, and

of course, I can’t possibly have any for her either if we’re forced together, it’s bound to be a hot mess.”

Presley shot him a glance and continued.

Right now, all I ask is that you guys don’t make a scene. I might not have many years left, you should know what

they’re up to. If you push Wendy to her breaking point and let people find her weakness, what do you think will

happen to the Harper family then? You’d better remember my words…

With that, Presley paused deliberately. His deep set eyes swept over the faces of the two brothers, his tone

unusually grave.
