The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1713

Chapter 1713

With Yasmine around, Chloe seemed to fade into the background. And that perfectly facilitated Damon’s intention of taking her away

He had initially considered settling the score with her for being absent for two nights, but upon seeing her in a bad mood, he decided to let go of that.

Yeah, just like that. Simply because she was down. And that was a big deal.

“Why didn’t you tell me my mom was coming?”

Damon raised an eyebrow, “You weren’t home.” He had decided to let this issue slide, but she brought it up again. It seemed he was destined to deal with it after all?

His response was nonchalant, yet it carried an undertone of complaint.

Chloe cast him a side glance. “What about a phone call?“e2

Damon fell silent for a moment, “She informed me only after her flight had landed.”

Chloe paused, arching one of her delicate eyebrows at him. “So what’s the point of me going home?”

Damon didn’t know how to respond. This woman had a quick mind.

Damon promptly pinned Chloe onto the car seat, planting a series of hasty kisses on her before he murmured. “That’s the point.” Chloe’s lips were red tinted from his kisses. She looked at him with a hint of annoyance, but didn’t say anything.

Sensing her lack of enthusiasm, Damon’s brow furrowed slightly. He instructed Nate to drive them to the hotel.

Once they got out of the car, Chloe was as cool as a cucumber. She gave a faint smile to Nate, who had opened the car door for her, thanked him softly, and promptly headed towards the hotel entrance. Nate scratched his head, watching Chloe’s retreating figure with a puzzled expression.

Damon was obviously not pleased.

As the extremely loyal and versatile assistant, Nate kindly reminded. “Sir, with her mood lately… I heard that pregnant women are prone to depression.”

With a sudden “thud“. Nate was kicked from behind, stumbling a few steps forward and nearly falling flat on his face. When he looked back at Damon, the man’s face was as gloomy as if he was the devil himself.

Even though his reminder was well–intended, it was not always well–received. Nate stood up, silently retreating to the side.

Damon walked past him, but then paused. “Keep an eye on those women.”

“Yes, sir.”

Chloe waited for Damon in the hotel lobby, where it was warmer. Damon approached her, swept her into his arms, and escorted her into the elevator. His silence made Chloe feel guilty and remorseful.

However, witnessing the reunion between her mother and grandmother after decades, left her with mixed feelings. This reunion, separated not only by time but also by several near–death experiences and twists of fate, was all thanks to Ava. So, compared to that, Ava’s current condition seemed somewhat unsatisfactory.

But it was her business, and transferring her negative emotions onto Damon only amplified her guilt without alleviating her feelings.

Watching the numbers steadily climb on the elevator panel, Chloe turned around silently, wrapped her arms around his strong waist, and buried her face in Damon’s firm, warm chest.

Damon allowed her to move freely, stroking her head gently, his tender actions intensifying her guilt. “I don’t know why I can’t let go. But I can’t stand the fact that their existence has completely ruined my mother’s life”

For decades, there was a separation between her mother and grandmother She, herself, had been in the dark about her mother’s fate for nearly seven years, and there were also numerous assassination attempts and threats.

She couldn’t bring herself to be merciful She was a bad person, but in front of Damon, she didn’t want him to think she was rotten to the core. Everyone wanted to be seen as a good person by those they cared about

Damon gently played with her hair, kissing her head, his deep voice echoing above her “So what? Why do you need to let go?”

When Chloe lifted her head to look at him, Damon quirked his lips, “They’ve done so many unforgivable things, so why are you agonizing over whether to forgive them or not?”

Chloe was taken aback.

“You did the right thing. You didn’t hesitate over such issues before, so why are you hesitating now?”

Chloe stared at him for a while, blinked her eyes, her expression somewhat aggrieved. She touched her belly and slowly said, “I’m afraid our babies will think I’m a bad person. If I’m too bad, will they end up disliking me?”
