The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1753

Chapter 1753

The tone in Damon's voice was as flat as it could get, yet it was enough to stun Presley. He stared at Damon for along time, his recent anger subsiding. "What on earth gives you such confidence? I've never taught you to be so outrageously arrogant.”

Speaking of teaching him, Presley closed his eyes, "I taught you so much since you were a kid, what not to do, what not to touch, and yet you've gone against everything. Damon, what do you take my words for?!”

“You're right." Damon said quietly, "But I feel that in this world, there are only things I don't want to do, not things I shouldn't do."

Presley took a deep breath, "One day you'll regret it, you definitely will"b2

Damon gave him a nonchalant smile, "I've said it before, that day will never come.”

Presley didn't want to stay here any longer. Alyssa's ruthlessness, and Damon's arrogance, filled his heart with boundless sorrow and anger. These were his family, each one rebellious and arrogant. If they had shown a little more respect, he would have given up and brought Chloe back to the Harper Mansion, acknowledging her identity, accepting her as the future Mrs. Harper. But they all refused to seize this opportunity.

Disappointed and angry, Presley left the Greenfield Village and went straight to the Harper Group, where he asked Robin to notify the press for a press conference.

After seeing Chloe's interview at the airport, the online critics' remarks about Damon weren't as reckless as before. After all, Presley hadn't personally said that he was going to sever ties with Damon. When the media received an invitation to a press conference from the Harper Group, they didn't expect that this sudden press conference would be of such importance.

At the entrance of the Harper Group, the media were surprised to see Presley himself standing in front of the cameras.

Some even speculated that the negative comments about Damon online had angered Presley, and this was his way of backing his grandson.

“It seems some people have really messed up this time, not only offending Ms. Summers, but also the old man of the Harper family.’

"I think those people online, unless they're sentenced to a few years, they won't get through this."

"They're brainless. They deserve it.”

The journalists were divided in their opinions, having a mixed attitude towards the current online environment.

“Thank you all for coming to this press conference. Today's press conference is held solely in my personal name."

In front of the TV, Alyssa watched the screen with an unprecedented cold expression. Hannah stood in front of her, her hands tightly clasped, on the verge of tears with anxiety.

“Madam, what is Mr. Presley trying to do? He just got so angry here, and now he's holding a press conference at the company. He wouldn't...”

Alyssa snorted coldly, "The Harper family has given him too much confidence.’

Hannah pleaded, "Madam, please call Mr. Presley and talk to him. He's angry now and easily impulsive. If he really... it would be hard to turn things around.”

Chloe sat on the sofa, looking a bit upset. Probably everyone in the room could guess what Presley was going to do. If Presley really said those words at the press conference, then she...

What had she done to tear apart a good family, even to this extent? She was baffled, but the result made her feel guilty.

Elizabeth, perhaps sensing her mood, took her hand and comforted her: “It's never your fault. He's just an old stubborn man who thinks he's superior. He believes that anyone from the Harper family is the best and most superior, and no one is worthy to enter the Harper family. He also disagreed with me and your dad being together and made a big fuss. Don't mind him"

Damon stood by the sofa, his expression calm, but a thick layer of coldness had surfaced in his eyes.

“Recently, I've noticed some people criticizing my grandson. Although I'm angry, I can't refute those comments.

He's indeed disgraceful. I've given him countless chances, but he's still stubborn, falling so low because of a woman.

“I never thought that a man of the Harper family would one day be like him, begging a woman for sustenance!

Such a grandson, the Harper family will not acknowledge, and I, Presley, do not have such a grandson. Today at this press conference, I want to make it clear to everyone that from now on, Damon has nothing to do with the Harper family. As for how you talk about him, and how you treat him, you don't have to consider the dignity of the Harper family”

Once Presley's words were out, the whole place was shocked.

"Mr. Presley, are you saying that you're severing ties with Mr. Damon?"

“I heard that Ms. Summers is now pregnant with Mr. Damon's child. Does your action today imply that there's no chance of recognizing Ms. Summers, and you won't acknowledge that the child in her is of Harper bloodline?"

"Mr. Presley, I really want to know, what do you care about? Initially, you arranged Ms. Wendy for Mr. Damon, partly because of the Alonso family's status and power, right? But now, Ms. Summers’ background should be even better than Ms. Wendy's, right? Why are you still so adamant?"

Presley's face was gloomy. This was already a loaded question, but what was the reason for his stubborn persistence? The answer was easy. Just because they had defied him too blatantly. But how could he admit to such a thing?

“I've said all that needs to be said. This press conference is over. Thank you for coming.

He didn't waste time with unnecessary words. The press conference was as abrupt in its ending as its beginning. The internet was once again in a frenzy over this press conference.

“Holy smokes, what's going on here? They've cut ties for real?"

“He's disowning his own great-grandson? Really? I thought he'd roll out the red carpet and welcome our Ms.

Summers into the Harper family with open arms!"

“That's what I thought too, I can't believe this is how it's turned out! Has Ms. Summers desecrated their family tomb or something? What on earth is their problem?"

“This old man's stubbornness could break a Guinness World Record.’

“But he's not wrong though. Having a kept boy in the family is a disgrace."

Robin had no idea what the old man had been through today. This press conference was completely unexpected. If he had known things would go so smoothly, he could have saved himself a lot of energy.

The incident remained hot on the internet. Due to the old man's actions, some people were even more audacious when discussing Damon. Chloe couldn't turn a blind eye to this. If it was about her, she could simply ignore it. But when it came to Damon, she couldn't help it, constantly checking her phone. Her anger was overwhelming. The company's legal department was already sending cease and desist letters to those people.

However, Damon didn't seem too concerned about this. When he was told by a servant that Chloe was constantly checking news about him on her phone and was in a bad mood, he confiscated all her electronic devices that could browse the internet.

Chloe felt both sorry for and guilty towards him. "Don't you care at all? Those people are really tearing into you."

Damon smirked, "Feeling a taste of what I went through before?"

Chloe pursed her lips, remembering how she had felt when she was being criticized online.
