The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1744

Chapter 1744

Yasmine curled her lips into a smirk. “Who said I was joking?”

Chloe met her gaze, her expression neutral.

Yasmine chuckled lightly, “Anyway, he was already kicked out by the Harpers, wasn’t he? He shamelessly accepted being the kept man, and the royal family’s son–in–law isn’t a role any man can take. He should feel honored.”

Chloe pursed her lips, “He’s not a kept man.“c2

“I despise that old man from the Harpers. The best way to get back at him is to have his favorite grandson take our last name. I bet his face would be a sight to see.”

Chloe rubbed her temples, “You’re overthinking. Why should my relationship with Damon be based on revenge?”

Yasmine raised an eyebrow, “Do you think your relationship didn’t cause anyone pain?”

Chloe’s expression hardened.

“I believe I didn’t interfere with anyone.”

“That’s my point. People are selfish. Why worry about others?”

Chloe narrowed her eyes at Yasmine, “So what are you trying to say?”

Yasmine shrugged, “I don’t want to deal with this mess. As long as Damon is willing to take our last name, you can take my place

Chloe scoffed, “You don’t want to deal with it, so you’re pushing it onto me and using Damon to indulge your laziness?”

Yasmine didn’t deny it. “I’m getting old. It’s time you took over.”

“You can let go of this mess. What about your cousin? Let him take over.”

Yasmine sighed, “Let’s talk about it later. Let’s review the coronation process for New Year’s Day again.”

Chloe wasn’t interested in discussing things that had nothing to do with her.

After nearly an hour in the office, Chloe finally left.

Every staff member in the palace greeted her with the utmost respect.

She had been to the palace more than once, but the difference between the past visits and the present was striking.

After all, the authority that Ava and her daughter had established over the years was deeply rooted.

If it weren’t for Ava being locked up, she believed that these people would have a different attitude towards her.

She smirked at the hypocrisy of people.

As she exited the palace, Kane and Nathan were waiting for her. Seeing her, Nathan imitated a gesture from a TV show, bowing to greet her.

“My respects to you, Princess Chloe. May you be forever blessed.”

Chloe gritted her teeth, her feet itching.

She really wanted to kick him.

She slid her foot along the ground, maintaining her dignity by not kicking Nathan.

Nathan got up off the ground after his greeting.

He grinned at Chloe, “Chloe, should I call you Princess or Sister–in–law? Or maybe Princess Sister–in–law?”

Chloe gave him a look, not knowing how to respond to his joke.

Kane was a little better than Nathan, but when he saw her about to get in the car, he made a gesture and ran to the car with bent waist, and opened the door.

“Princess, please get in.”

She rolled her eyes, speechless at these two men.

How did they grow up to be like this? How could Damon have such unreliable buddies?

How could they do justice to their handsome faces that could drive women crazy?

Truly, appearances can be deceiving.

As soon as they got in the car, the two men started chatting about the absurdity of Chloe being a princess.

Their chatter gave Chloe a headache.

“You must be busy with end–of–year business, right? Why do you seem so idle?”

Kane shrugged, “The rest is up to the managers. Do you want me to sit and do bookkeeping?”

Nathan chuckled, “That’s a funny image. Why not? Your father told you to start from the bottom, right? You’ve cleaned toilets before, this is nothing. At least you’d be in an office.”

“Do you have the nerve to say that? What about you?”

Chapter 1744

“Me? Robin likes to keep all the power to himself. How could he let me handle the company’s finances? I’m free as a bird.”

When the Harper family was mentioned, Chloe frowned, “What’s going on? You have a lot of shares in the Harper family, but they won’t let you handle the finances?”

Had Robin become so unrestrained?

Nathan scoffed, “He just took over the company recently, and he’s been dealing with a lot of issues. The company has been losing money. How could he let me see his performance?”

Chloe was silent, thinking that Damon might have had a hand in this.

“Maybe he’s just afraid of losing his dignity in front of me. But he’s naive. Can he hide it forever? After New Year’s Day is the Global Economic Summit, and the Harpers will be thrust into the spotlight. They used to be ranked second among global businesses, but I doubt they’ll be able to maintain that position this year.”

Chloe remained silent. After New Year’s Day was the Global Economic Summit, she wondered how far the company’s accounts had gotten.

It seemed that after the coronation, she would have to return to supervise as soon as possible.

Although Damon had arranged people in place, she was still a bit worried.

When she returned to the hotel, Damon was nowhere to be seen. Chloe was used to it.

He, as a kept man, was busier than her, the “sponsor”

The busy days passed in a blink of an eye, and soon it was New Year’s Day.

A day that attracted the attention of the world.

Chloe was taken to the palace early in the morning. After breakfast, she began to dress up.

Every radio station in Country Y was broadcasting the event live, every eye on the internet was glued to the coronation ceremony.

The streets, multimedia, electronic screens, and all available spaces capable of broadcasting live scenes were showcasing the grand occasion.

The coronation of the princess of Y Country was a sight to behold, the first one to occur in over sixty years since Queen Julia’s reign.

It was a rare event, one that people were lucky to witness in their lifetime.

The live broadcast of the event was spreading the news across the globe.

The carriage that carried Chloe was drawn by six magnificent horses, arranged in three rows, with a pack leader at the front, two in the middle, and three at the rear. The horses were robust and radiant, their long manes fluttering in the wind.

The carriage was a beautifully decorated platform, with curtains that allowed a clear view of the surroundings.

The royal guards, dressed in royal uniforms, stood solemnly around the carriage, their formation impeccable, ensuring the safety of Chloe.

Chloe wore a ceremonial gown, the top half of which was covered by a faux fur coat that was pure white. A large diamond pendant dangled from her neck, and on her back was a golden phoenix that spread across her arms, seeming to take flight with every movement she made.

There were many details that Chloe could not describe in just a few words. She admired the thought and effort that Damon had put into the preparation in such a short time.
