The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1589

Chapter 1589

Addie was roughed up by a few maids. They smothered her cries, punched, kicked, and even took turns tickling her. Their roles were clearly divided.

Downstairs was a cacophony, but upstairs, it was eerily quiet. The soundproof design of the mansion was often more professional than the professionals.

By the time Chloe appeared at the top of the stairs, the maids downstairs were exhausted. Addie lay on the floor, and her face was a bruised mess. Her clothes were torn and disheveled, and she was moaning in pain.

Even if she wanted to call for help, she couldn't muster the strength.

She was vaguely threatening to sue them, to make them pay. Chloe raised an eyebrow, then turned and left for another part of the second floor. When she checked back, the maids were standing in a line, each with a wrapped parcel at their feet..

Chloe found it amusing. She believed in their efficiency. It was evident from their actions today.

Addie had managed to get up from the floor and was sitting amidst the mess. Her swollen face turned towards Chloe, anger flashing in her eyes. The angrier she got, the more the pain seemed to intensify. Pain and anger coexisted.

Chloe finally stood before her, looking down, "Do they have enough reason to leave now? If not, I believe they still have some energy."

Addie shuddered. She glanced at the line of maids, whose eyes shining with anticipation. She quickly shrank back, trying to hide.

Chloe watched her, a faint smile playing on her lips. Back at the Harper family, Addie had been a regular informant for Wendy. Addie had managed to annoy her mother-in-law, be in cahoots with Wendy, and even manipulate her father-in-law to her advantage.

She knew all too well how Addie had gradually forced Marina out. This cunning old woman had been disciplined by her mother-in-law more than once, even expelled, but now she was living carefree.

Carefree? If someone offended her, how could she let them live carefree?

"I've dirtied the stairs and the master bedroom. Remember, clean them thoroughly! Kneel there and scrub!

Otherwise, you'll be kicked out of the Harper family too." Chloe said.

"Mr. Presley won't allow me to leave!” Addie jolted, wincing at the pain that shot through her body.

Chloe smirked, her eyes sparkling with amusement. To others, it was a beautiful sight. But to Addie, it was chilling and intimidating.

Chloe said, "Who knows? If he could let you leave once, he can certainly let you leave again. He's the type who would disregard his own family for his reputation. Let's see what tricks you have up your sleeve to surpass his family's place in his heart."

When Chloe left with the maids, they finally understood why Presley disliked Chloe so much yet she could freely enter the Harper mansion. The guards she brought with her were of a much higher rank than those currently in the Harper's Mansion.

The Harper family always trained their guards in a military-like manner. Ranks were clearly defined. Seeing someone of higher rank, the current Harper family guards dared not act rashly.

Though Presley had announced the removal of the young master's family title, everyone understood that bloodline couldn't be eliminated.

Damon was not someone they could offend. Strictly speaking, they should listen to him. So now, they were obedient, as docile as could be.

The group had arrived in separate cars, so the maids were quickly arranged into seats.

Chloe's sleek limousine was quarded with utmost precision, stern faces and rigid postures of the guards making the housekeepers shrink to the side of the car, clutching their parcels tightly.

Only when everyone had left did the grandeur of Harper's Mansion echo with tranquility again. Addie, confronted with the aftermath, couldn't afford to slack off. Despite her sour expression, she managed to stand and start tidying up.

After a hasty clean-up of the parlor, she was panting heavily. But the path of grape juice Chloe had stepped on meandered its way upstairs.

Addie felt a wave of revulsion, recalling Chloe's words. What was Chloe's intention if not to see the old man of Harper's Mansion?
