Chapter 1396
Wendy offered a smile, took a deep breath, and said, "How can I not care, though? If people are influenced by these opinions, it means they're accepting those views. But I'll get through it…"
They were chatting as they walked when hearing Wendy's words, Felix suddenly stopped. "What can I do to help? Wendy, don't carry all this on your own. I want to help. I can't stand seeing you strain like this."
His earnest words, however, left Wendy feeling uncomfortable and pressured. "Felix…" She only said his name, but her voice filled with distance.
Felix quickly responded, "No, no... don't get me wrong. We're friends, right? And I'm about to get hitched…"
Wendy, surprised, asked, "To Elsa?"
Felix shook his head, "No…"
Wendy nodded thoughtfully, letting out a sigh of relief but also a pinch of regret. "Let's celebrate then. It's good news."
"Sure."
They agreed and then left the hospital together. But as soon as they stepped out, Wendy was stopped.
Nate blocked her path, and his face was expressionless. "Ms. Alonso, would you mind coming with me?"
Feeling a strange sense of tension, Wendy took a couple of steps back. "What's the matter?"
Nate simply replied, "Mr. Harper would like to see you."
Damon? Wendy was hesitant.
"Please, Ms. Alonso, step into the car."
Wendy hesitated for a while, but when Nate said, "Mr. Harper is waiting for you. I hope you won't keep him waiting too long." her defenses began to crumble.
After a bit of hesitation, she finally nodded. "Alright."
"Wendy..."
Felix tried to stop her, but Wendy cut him off. "We'll catch up later."
Just as Wendy got into Nate's car, she was forcefully blindfolded.
"Ms. Alonso, please remain calm," Nate said coldly as Wendy struggled. "Mr. Harper doesn't want anyone to know where he's staying."
Wendy's anxiety spiked, and she started to struggle frantically. But it was no use. The place Nate took her to was the last place she wanted to be.
She still remembered the cage, the torture tools on the walls. She even remembered the two men in the cage, the scene of Damon killing a man with his own hands, her wounds getting infected and festering, her fever not subsiding...
"If I were you, I wouldn't dare appear in my line of sight again."

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...
