The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1222

Chapter 1222

Wendy shrieked loudly again when Chloe was pulling out the needle.

After the needle was out, Chloe earnestly said again, "Since you can't catch a cold, you should stay here for another night and leave tomorrow."

She continued, “After all, if you guys get sick, I'm the one who has to take the blame."

Wendy was naturally happy for her to do this. Grace could not ignore Wendy's health either.

After saying this, Chloe took out the needles, handed them over to Jane, and then walked over to Damon.

"I never expected you to have medical skills."

Chloe blinked her eyes, leaned forward towards Damon, and whispered, “Actually, I don't"

Damon's eyes were filled with helplessness and indulgence, he reached out his hand to wrap around her waist, pulling her closer. "Sly little fox: This was a conversation that only the two of them could hear. Damon's voice reminded Chloe of times when he would whisper sweet nothings during their intimate moments.

Chloe's eyes flickered a few times, she lightly bit her lip.

“She really made a lot of trouble, and if I didn't cooperate, wouldn't her plan be wasted?"

The two disregarded the people around them and walked out of the room. Chloe lowered her head and rubbed the hand that had been holding Wendy's, recalling Grace's words; her eyes were filled with deep thought.

"Damon..." she suddenly said.

"What?"

Chloe was silent for a while and didn't say anything until they reached the staircase. Damon stopped walking and looked down at her. "What's wrong?"

Chloe looked up and smiled at him, "You're not angry anymore, right?"

Damon looked at her, "I'm not angry"

“You're lying. You were clearly angry just now."

"I'm not angry now."

Chloe smiled. "How can you let me bully your friend who grew up with you?"

Damon smiled. "You can bully her as you like"

Chloe paused for a few seconds, then suddenly started laughing.

"If she hears this, she'll definitely be pissed"

"As long as you're happy, that's all that matters."

Marina hesitated for a long time before tentatively speaking to Elizabeth. She hoped they could stay. She described the loneliness Presley felt living alone in the mansion in a way that could not help but elicit sympathy.

They knew Marina meant no harm. Elizabeth softened, and so did Chloe. In fact, they felt a little guilty.

Presley had done some unforgivable things, even heartbreaking things. But they had their own thoughts. Just because someone had wronged them, they didn't necessarily have to retaliate. Besides, he was Presley, not someone they should hate.

Everyone had their own stand. For instance, Presley was an elder of the Harper family. And they were the wives of the men of the Harper family.

Wendy was eating very slowly at the side. Each of Elizabeth's statements repeatedly stabbed her heart.

Becoming a mother, the date of engagement, full-body beauty treatment...

These were all things she rejected, things she was insanely jealous of.

The engagement ceremony was coming...

Towards the end of the meal, Elizabeth put down her knife and fork. "Wendy.

Suddenly being called, Wendy was somewhat surprised. No one expected Elizabeth to suddenly focus on Wendy, and they all looked up at her.

"Mrs. Harper..." Wendy's voice was weak, her face pale.

Everyone knew that she had indeed suffered a lot in the past few days, even though there was still a bit of pretense in her frail appearance.

"The engagement ceremony is coming soon. It's a joyous day, I see you're so weak, your wounds probably won't heal in a few days, so you better not show up on the engagement day. Don't let your bad luck and bloody scent affect the happy event.

Wendy's heart suddenly turned cold, her face froze for a moment, then became even worse than before.

"Mrs. Harper..." she almost pleaded.

Did she have bad luck? Weren't all these wounds on her body caused by Chloe?

Even though she didn't really look forward to the engagement day, it'd still be nice to see Damon on that day, she thought, despite the fact that she couldn't stop the engagement from happening. But now she couldn't even show up at the engagement party...

Many people bought into this kind of talk, preferring to believe that happy events should not be tainted by bad luck, or that tragedy would result from negligence. Even if someone didn't believe this, no one wouldn't dare to refute it. Now that Elizabeth used this as an excuse, she had no room for rebuttal.
