Chapter 1376
Chloe glanced at her watch and then looked up with a faint smile, "You wanna talk reality with me? Well, I'm about to give you a taste of reality."
Her words and the slight smile on her face filled Wendy with a sense of dread. On instinct, Wendy was now genuinely scared of any smile that suddenly appeared on Chloe's face. Even a slight smile from her felt like standing on the edge of a cliff.
But what could she do now?
"Chloe, what are you up to now?" Presley stared at her coldly, "The reality is, no matter how good you are, I will never accept you as my daughter-in-law! You let Damon easily give up the Harper Group, I will never forgive you for this!"
Chloe's gaze gradually cooled down, "Why are you labeling me like this? I remember that your attitude was not like this in Hong Kong. You are changing your attitude now, simply because of Ms. Wendy's incessant pestering. And more importantly, you are afraid of the Alonso family. You were once the controller of the Harper Group, and being scared like this by the Alonso family is just too ridiculous! If I were you, I would eliminate anyone who hinders me! The friendship between the two families? You value them, but they threaten you with their family background! What's worth maintaining in such a friendship!"
Wendy's face changed instantly, her voice sharp, "Chloe, you're stirring up trouble here! It seems we've been too lenient with you and your mother, leading to your brazenness and lawlessness! Do you think we, the Alonso family, are easy to bully? You're making too much of a fuss, thinking you're great because you bought Infinity Media? Believe me, one day, I will make your Starlight International disappear from this world! I want to see how much longer you can be arrogant in front of me!"
As Wendy spoke, she seemed to be imagining Chloe's future downfall, and her face became increasingly smug.
However, Chloe just scoffed, "Still relying on the Alonso family, huh?"
Wendy lifted her chin, arrogance written all over her face. "So what? At least I have the Alonso family. What about you?"
"All I need is myself." Chloe raised an eyebrow, casually responding. She then pulled her hand away from Damon's and walked over to the multimedia console.
"Presley being scared doesn't mean I'm scared. I rely on myself, and if I want, I can have even ten Alonso families." Chloe's words, to most of the people present, seemed quite arrogant.
They all acknowledged her capabilities, but the wealth of the Alonso family was not to be overlooked. Some of the people present had experienced more than half of their lives, and they had a profound understanding of the current state of society. Money, power, influence, these were the laws of survival in this world. Chloe had no reason to underestimate the Alonso family.
Wendy looked coldly at these people, then scornfully at Chloe, "You really never give up until you are consigned to the grave."
Standing not far away, Damon watched as Wendy turned her head to look at him and said softly, "Damon, I know my presence here today will make you angry, including the words I just said. But isn't what I said the truth? Grandpa has always valued you the most, and he would never harm you."
However, Damon's gaze was always following Chloe; he never looked at her.
Wendy bit her lip tightly, tears about to spill out, "Damon, I am the lady of the Alonso family, and there is really no need for me to do all this. But why am I still doing it? I just don't want you to regret it in the future. What I can give you, I believe is definitely not less than what Chloe can give, and there's also the help from the Alonso family. Oh right, Damon, as you know, my dad is preparing a big project recently, if this project succeeds..."

The readers' comments on the novel: The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride
did it really end this way. can I have the rest of the book ending??...
So, all of them were basically forced into sexual acts by their partners the first time, then their partners wanted to seclude them from everyone. On top of that, all of are jealous of their own children. The only couple that seem to have it good were Azriel & Phoebe. This book was honestly quite sickening & there’s no way anyone should find this romantic...

Some chapters are missing and some of them are repeated..it feels like story takes a jump because of it...
