The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1273

Chapter 1273

Considering Yulia might be cooking at home, he began to get antsy. “I gotta bounce.“‘

“Turn on the TV. Before leaving, Damon didn’t forget to instruct him.

“You’re the sick one. You’re top priority.” Nathan reluctantly turned on the TV and then hastily left the room.

Elizabeth fixed up everything, then took a seat next to the sickbed. She threw a glance at the TV screen, where Damon was tinkering with the stock market on the remote.

She instantly got the gist. “The Alonso family’s stocks are indeed a bit shaky, but it’s not enough to shake them. The arrogance of Grace and Wendy revealed the true face of the Alonsos; you can’t underestimate them.”

Damon clammed up. Of course, he knew this. Otherwise, his grandpa wouldn’t have been so wary of the Alonsos.

Presley wasn’t completely against Chloe at first, but then he found out Wendy wouldn’t back down, so he had a change of heart.

Damon frowned at the TV for a while, then said, “I’ll gradually sever all cooperation with the Alonso family.”

Elizabeth instantly shook her head, “No way, you gotta know, the bonds between the Harpers and the Alonsos run deep. They’re intertwined after all these years. If you do this, even if it hurts the Alonsos, the Harpers will get hit too. Without other choices, we can’t make such a decision, that will hurt both sides.”

Damon’s brow twitched, then he turned back to the news on TV. The news mainly reported on last night’s engagement party. The behavior of Grace and Wendy caught the public’s attention, and the secrets of the Alonso family also became a hot topic, especially the cause of death during childbirth of Alicia from the Alonsos years ago, sparking all kinds of speculation.

Some said that at the time Alicia was pregnant, Grace had already moved into the Alonso family.

That was normal for a wealthy family like the Alonsos. In a place like Hong Kong, a man having multiple wives wasn’t a big deal.

But what was not normal was for such a wealthy family, the monthly prenatal checkups should be top–notch, and any issues like breech position or umbilical cord wrapping around the neck that could lead to difficult childbirth should be detected, why did Alicia have a difficult birth back then, and the mother even died? And Grace, how did she suddenly give premature birth? And why did it happen to be on the same day Alicia gave birth? There must be something fishy going on here.

At the engagement party last night, it was said Viscount Rhys came to crash the party, and he brought someone with him, who claimed to be Princess Becky from the Y Country’s royal family. She said Grace was her aunt, and even demanded Ms. Summers and her mother to kneel and apologize to Grace and Wendy. They got a good scolding from Ms. Summers instead.

[Oh my! Things are getting complicated, Princess Becky is the daughter of Princess Ava from the Y Country. If Grace and Princess Ava are sisters, then it’s very likely all of this has to do with Princess Ava.]

[Back then, the head of the Alonso family had to urgently go to the Y Country, Alicia died from difficult childbirth, and Grace gave premature birth. The whole hospital was bought off. They fabricated a birth certificate. This couldn’t be done by Grace alone, right? If Princess Ava was involved, then it makes sense.]

[Oh Lord… the rich are terrifying! One misstep and you don’t even know how you died.]

Even though these were mostly bystanders, but these were the most logical guesses. Gotta say, these people online could totally be detectives.

This was also mentioned by Chloe’s mom at the party yesterday. Damon frowned, suddenly falling silent again. It seemed that Chloe’s mom wasn’t just talking about taking the Alonso family, she was also quick to act.

From the moment she spoke those words yesterday, she had already started taking action. Both the comments online today and the fluctuations in the Alonso family’s stocks were all within her expectations.

He was initially worried the Alonso family would strike first at them, but who would’ve thought that she had been planning from the start to gradually shake the foundations of the Alonso family.

Meanwhile, in a villa in the Y Country, Ava sat on the couch, pale as a ghost.

Yasmine was back? That woman Yasmine… she was actually… not dead?! After all these years and all the time and effort she had put in, how was she still alive? She slammed the tablet in her hand to the floor in anger.

Barbara sat on the couch, nonchalantly leaning against the armrest, unfazed by Ava’s outburst, her lips slightly tightened, clearly not in a good mood.

“Grandmama has been wanting to abdicate. I know she did say we all have a chance, but you’re not her biological daughter, and we were never at an advantage. Now with this news out, you also have to shoulder the suspicion of being the culprit… why did you have to meddle with Grace’s affairs?”
