Chapter 1751
All the reporters suddenly understood something and turned their confused gazes towards the reporter who had
just been slapped. Indeed, as they have just stated Chloe, being a public figure and a shrewd one at that, would
never slap a reporter in public, no matter how furious she might be. Yet, could it be that she did so because that
man had slandered Damon?
Although the man hadn’t fully voiced his thoughts, anyone could tell what he was about to say next. He sure was
bold to speak so disrespectfully of Damon, a genuine descendant of the Harper family, carrying the blood of the
Harpers in his veins Sure, he may have been expelled from the Harper family, but that was not a lifelong sentence.
In due time, someone was bound to give in To label him as a homeless dog, that guy must truly be tired of living
Chloe’s words now made it even clearer. If this man didn’t have backup, he certainly wouldn’t be so brazen
The man looked somewhat flustered, “I was simply eager to uncover the truth.”
Chloe retorted icily. “Your method of seeking the truth is certainly charming “c2
After she finished speaking, her icy gaze scanned every person present, Tm not stopping you from pursuing the
truth, but I hope you’d do something more meaningful Are you all going to starve without our lives to feast on
during your dinner chats?”
The reporters present all looked rather uncomfortable Essentially, as entertainment journalists, they were running
ragged for web traffic, catering to internet users who enjoy drama
What practical significance?
This was the practical significance. And nothing more.
Ms. Summers as an entertainment professional, don’t you think your statements are a bit inappropriate?”
Chloe said, “I am merely expressing my stance on this matter in my own way. My duty as an entertainment
professional is to cultivate artists and works for the public, not to provide entertainment using the privacy and
dignity of my family if you still don’t understand, let me clarify once more. None of your questions are valid As for
the rumors online, I will make sure you bear the consequences of defamation”
Chloe’s words landed with a forceful thud, demonstrating her fierce determination. All the reporters were stifled by
her dominating aura
Not daning to provoke Chloe, they turned their attention to Alyssa and Elizabeth beside her
“Ladies, regarding the matter of Mr. Harper being expelled from the Harper family, is there any chance for
reconciliation? What are your thoughts?”
“Damon has always been my grandson If you want to know who expelled him from the Harper family, you should
ask that person instead. Ask him if he has a grandson that he kicked out” Alyssa’s words sent a chill down the spine
of the reporters. Nobody, not even Presley, had ever used the term expelled it seemed they had made assumptions
“Then what about the rumors of Mr. Harper marrying into the Y Country’s royal family, what do you have to say
about that?
“So what if he mames into their family? Is he eating your food? If you have the guts, try to marry into the Y
Country’s royal family and see if they want you.” Elizabeth was exasperated. She had never been comfortable with
the reporters” probing questions.
in public, she had always had to restrain herself as Mrs. Harper What was so great about the Harper family? if not
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtfor her foolish love for that man, she wouldn’t have to put up with all this
Her words left the reporters speechless
“Any more questions? if not, please step aside.”
The reporters were not satisfied. “Ms Summers, does your attitude suggest that no matter what, you are willing to
trust Mr. Harper and stay with him? Aren’t you afraid that things may take a turn for the worse? I mean, what if, Mr.
Harper really has ulterior motives in approaching you, what will you do?”
Chice glanced at the man, and calmly stated, “Yes, I trust him Therefore, your last question is not valid”
The crowd fell silent
Standing behind them, Damon hooked his lips into a smirk, turned to Royce and couldn’t help but gloat, “What
should I do now?”
As a father and a mature man, Royce had to restrain himself from punching Damon right there and then The brat
was actually flaunting his love life to him. After a moment, he sneered, “Don’t get too cocky You’ve lived fewer
years than I have. The situation isn’t over yet. Yes, Chloe cares about you, but the more she cares, the less she can
tolerate any flaws. You can act nonchalant now, but don’t be surprised when you later find her crying in a commer
Seeing Damon’s face darken, Royce felt a sense of satisfaction. He glanced at Chloe and continued. “Just now, she
must have been very angry, night?”
Damon’s face was very gloomy at this point
Having achieved his goal. Royce walked towards his wife with an easy stride
The focus of the media scrutiny was right behind them, but none of the reporters dared to approach Damon for an
interview.
Under the watchful eyes of their bodyguards, they strolled out of the airport Just as they were about to get into the
cat Chloe suddenly turned to Nate and said. “Don’t do anything to that journalist for now, but I want him to be
monitored closely
Nate paused for a moment, seemingly understanding what she meant. “Understood, ma am
Chloe nodded and got into the car
This airport interview naturally stirred up another wave of excitement online
“That reporter really was asking for it I mean, who dares to say such things? No matter how stupid a joumalist
could be, they wouldn’t say those things. who was dumb enough to hire such an idiot to stir the pot
“Ms Summers is still the fiery woman we know, always so powerful
“Ah, that slap was so satisfying!”
“Although I shouldn’t really be concerned, I can’t help but want to know more. Ms. Summers trusts Mr Harper so
much, what if he tuma out to i

affair? After finally marrying into the royal family, why would he?”
“What if he approached her with an ulterior motive? She is already pregnant, and the hurt would be deeper”
“Men, such unpredictable creatures
“The thing I want to say is, Presley used to look down on Ms. Summers background, but now that she’s suddenly a
high and mighty princess, I wonder if he still thinks she’s not good enough for the Harper family”
“Not good enough” Hilanous, who’s not good enough for whom now? Even if Damon is still the CEO of the Harper
family, he’s not necessarily good enough for Ms. Summers Besides, he’s nothing now”
“Do we even need to discuss this? If he were really good enough, we wouldn’t be saying he’s clinging to her
coattails now
Chloe’s past achievements had already gamered her a large following online When they first heard about her
relationship with Damon, they were excited and congratulatory But now, when comparing Chloe and Damon,
naturally, they praised Chloe while criticizing Damon
The online discussions were heated, but Chloe, being busy with Alyssa and Elizabeth was naturally unaware of what
was happening online
Meanwhile Presley was fuming due to his excessive concem for Damon and Chloe’s affairs
“Even he was still the CEO of the Harper family, he was not good enough for Chloe.” In his eyes, this was an
outright insult to the Harper family. The Harper family had always been the ones to look down on others. When did
the Harper family become something others look down upon?
As the end of the financial year approached, Presley grew more impatient. Not only because of the year–end
stress, but also because of the Global Economic Summit Being suppressed for several years, he was already
frustrated. Now, because of a woman, the Harper family was once again being belittled. He was
naturally upset
Robin on the side also looked sullen
“Has the company’s financial report come out yet? How is it?”
Now, the only thing that could somewhat ease his frustration was undoubtedly the Global Economic Summit. If they
could achieve a good result, even surpass the Obsidian Group, and once again rank first internationally, he would
like to see who would dare to point fingers at the Harper family
At these words, Robin’s face darkened even more ‘It’s out Compared to last year, there’s no significant change”
Presley closed his eyes and took a deep breath. How could the Harper family achieve a good result given the ups
and downs they had this year?!
“Don’t worry, at the very least we can maintain our position from last year. This year the head of Obsidian will also
attend. If we’re lucky enough simeet with him, i think if we put aside our prejudices, a collaboration between us
would be beneficial for both parties.”
Presley’s eyes narrowed instantly. “Collaborate? After being suppressed by him for so many years, now you want to
work with him? You think Damon marrying into the royal family wasn’t humiliating enough, and now you want to
follow in his footsteps and cling to Obsidian?! When did our family become so weak?!
The machismo was palpable
Robin pursed his lips, Tm simply thinking about the better development of the family?
“We won’t resort to such a weak move as clinging to others if we can’t do it ourselves! The Harper family will never
do such a thing!”
Robin sat on the sofa with a cold face, holding his silence
The head of Obsidian is attending the Global Economic Summit this year, huh? I’d like to see who this important
person is
Presley leaned on his cane to stand up, but his movements were not as agile as before. It took a great deal of effort
for him to stand up and he shuffled upstairs.
It was only after his figure disappeared at the staircase that Robin stood up, walked out of the mansion, and dialed
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏma number on his phone “Make sure he’s dealt with Unbelievable, how did you find such a fool!”
The other person responded, “He’s a small fry, so he should be easy to deal with when everything’s done. Don’t
worry, it’ll be taken care of
Robin ended the call The thought of today’s airport news made him furrow his brow. Simply unbelievable
After Presley went upstairs, it took him a long while to suppress his anger
He was a walking contradiction now He despised the trouble that Chloe had brought to the Harper family and even
to Damon, yet he was constantly thinking about the child in her belly in the end, the baby in Chloe’s womb slowly
occupied his entire heart. Everything else was pushed aside
The next generation of the Harper family His great–grandchild
Tossing and turning, he barely got a wink of sleep. When the moming came, he groggily ate his breakfast, staring
blankly at the table for over an hour before he finally stood up and stepped out of the villa
The butler hurried to his side. “Sir, what do you wish to do?”
“Prepare the car
Chloe couldn’t get out of bed in the morning Ever since she started to show she found herself feeling more and
more lethargic: She had been a little lazy unce she started dating Damon, but now she was on a whole new level of
inertia
She only managed to crawl out of bed after nine bundled up in her cozy loungewear After a quick wash, she went
downstairs to find something to eat
The housekeeper upon seeing her immediately dashed into the kitchen The breakfast prepared for Chloe was
promptly served on the dining table
Elizabeth, who was pushing Alyssa back from her morning walk, saw Chloe having breakfast and cheerfully joined
her starting another round of breakfast “What are your plans for the day, Chloe? I can arrange for a prenatal
teacher to come over
Chloe shook her head, I have to go to the office later”
“Go to the office? Your baby bump is starting to show it’s so inconvenient. Why not stay at home?”
“I just need to check on something I won’t stay long”
