The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1529

Chapter 1529

The priest turned his head, his bright and wise eyes briefly sweeping over the people standing in front of him. His gaze landed on Rose and he said, "Don't get too caught up in one thing, paying more attention to your work will be more beneficial. Effort always pays off. As for other matters, don't sweat the small stuff.

What's meant to be yours will be yours, if it's not meant to be, no amount of insisting will make it yours."

At his words, the hopeful expression on Rose's face instantly turned pale.

Then, the priest turned to Yulia, saying, "You will have many children, and you are a lucky person."

Upon hearing this, Chloe became interested. She couldn't help but ask, "How many children? How many daughters, and how many sons?"b2

Perhaps feeling a bit guilty about Chloe, the priest gave Yulia an extra glance and said, "She will only have one daughter, but at least three other sons.’

Chloe was a bit thrilled at his words. She looked at Damon and said with a chuckle, "Your Harper family is truly blessed, Nathan is so amazing for having at least four kids."

Damon simply smiled, holding her arm a little tighter. "I'll outdo him."

The crowd fell silent. Chloe blushed deeply and stammered as she spoke. "This is a holy place. What are you saying?” The surrounding gazes made her lower her head.

Damon gave a nonchalant smile, "What did I say? As a worldly person, I naturally can't avoid worldly matters."

Chloe was speechless, as there were two other worldly people present. Yulia and Rose turned their gaze away, while the priest kept his smile, his expression unchanged. He continued to say to Yulia, "Your daughter will be older, and it's a blessing to have a few younger brothers to protect her.’ The priest changed the subject, sparing Chloe further embarrassment, and turned his gaze to Yulia.

Rose seemed surprised, "Yulia, your first child is a daughter? My son is already engaged, or else we could have become in-laws."

Yulia’s eyes flickered away, she simply smiled and said, "That's...a pity."

"No worries, I'll treat her as my goddaughter."

Yulia nodded, "That's not bad."

Chloe watched Yulia, noting every subtle change in her expression.

She furrowed her brows but ultimately remained silent.

Then, the priest turned to Damon, "You...."

"I don't need it." Damon interrupted, his voice flat. "I don't believe in these things, nor can I have that kind of absolute faith. I prefer to predict my own destiny.’ His attitude was confident and arrogant.

Chloe walked slowly to him, seeing the scriptures and a pen on the table. "You refused the place I arranged for you. Do you think it's better here?"

Jonah nodded, sat back down, and closed the scripture on the table. "Living here, I feel more at peace."

Chloe also nodded, sitting across from Jonah. She looked at the scripture on the table, and fell silent for a moment. "As your granddaughter, there are many things I didn't do well’ Chloe said.

"But I still can't understand why things have come to this point."

They were supposed to be family, but they were filled with resentment for each other. People said blood was a magical connection. But for her, it was far from that. "Even so, I can't forgive you. So you don't have to forgive me either."

Regardless of the cause and outcome of the situation, and how passive she was in this family feud, the families didn't act like families, and she also didn't fulfill her duties as a granddaughter.

Jonah nodded, "We owe you too much. We didn't leave you with good memories, and for that, I'm sorry."

"Some memories are not worth my time to recall, so the past, good and bad, have become history to me, not worth mentioning.” Chloe cut him off decisively. She wasn't there to hear his regrets and apologies. She didnt want to listen, nor did she want to forgive.

"As for the Summers family, I reckon I've done all I can. You said ‘no’ to the house, and you wont accept any support either. But if the day comes, I'll still do my duty and step up to the plate, doing what a granddaughter should do. I take note of even the tiniest favor from others, let alone the gift of your upbringing."

Jonah let out a deep sigh, "So what brings you here today?"
