Chapter 1610
In the grand Harper mansion, Robin showed Presley all the news from Chloe’s press conference today. Presley watched silently, not uttering a single word. After a lengthy silence, Robin finally spoke. “Dad, it’s hard to say this, but we have to face the reality. We haven’t heard from Royce or Elizabeth in ages. It’s time to accept the situation.”
Presley, his eyebrows trembling slightly, replied in a heavy voice. “We haven’t find them, and whether they are alive or dead, I need to see them…”
“The Harper empire is in my hands, but the real power has never been. You saw the news, even a woman like her can mock us. Dad, to outsiders, I, the CEO, am nothing more than a joke.”
Presley furrowed his brows. “Who dares to laugh at you?”
Robin snorted, but said nothing. The answer was clear. Wasn’t it all over the news?c2
They fell into a silence. After a long while, it was Presley who broke the silence. “I’ve given you my shares. What else do you want?”
“I believe you have the authority to decide what happens to Damon’s shares.”
Presley’s face turned ashen. “You already have the most shares in the company!”
“If Damon really wants to come back, don’t you think I’ll be forced to step down as CEO? I may have a lot of shares, but everyone knows you only gave them to me to threaten Damon. If he returns, the Board of Directors might use this as an excuse to remove me…
Presley’s breathing became harsh. “What did you say?! You’re not getting any younger. Even if you do take over the company, how many more years can you manage it? Travis, who was always more interested in the military, has risen through the ranks rapidly. Even if you got the company, you wouldn’t have a successor! Why are you so fixated on the company?!”
Robin’s only son, Travis, had built an impressive military career in the B city of. He had never relied on the Harper family and had been constantly promoted for his integrity and natural talent as a soldier.
Presley knew that Travis had no intention or necessity to fight for the company’s rights, which is why he had been willing to put the company’s shares in Robins hands.
At his age, he should have been trying to secure something for his son. But Travis didn’t need any of this, so why was he still fighting?

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...
