Chapter 296
After dinner, Chloe was about to help clear the table when a servant rushed over, telling her that her phone had been ringing non–stop. He was worried that it might run out of juice, so he came over to remind her.
In fact, since last night, Lance had been blowing up her phone with calls and texts. Chloe had been ignoring him, but she hadn’t expected him to be so persistent.
But when she checked the caller ID, it wasn’t Lance.
It was Nick…
Her so–called biological father.
How odd.
Chloe narrowed her eyes and took her phone to the patio of the living room to answer the call.
“What’s up?” Her voice was flat, devoid of warmth.
“You…bastard, is this how you speak to your father?” Nick’s angry voice came through the receiver.
“Father? Hah, you’re just Keira’s father.”
“Shameless! You’re utterly ungratefull No matter what, Keira is your sister. You keep hurting her over and over again. This time you even made her kneel and apologize to you in public? Do you know she’s a public figure now? Havent you caused her enough trouble these days?”
Chloe gripped her phone tightly, one hand on her forehead, laughing bitterly.
“You reap what you sow. Now that she’s in trouble, she’s still the one to pity. Don’t you guys get sick of seeing her miserable face every day?”
That’s all your fault…”
Chloe’s gaze turned cold, losing her patience, “Enough, get to the point or I’m hanging up.”
“You dare! Come home right now, I have something to tell you.”
Nick, afraid that Chloe would hang up, rattled off his words like a machine gun.
Chloe raised an eyebrow, pausing for two seconds, “Fine, I’ll be back later.”
With that, she hung up. Whatever Nick said after that, she didn’t hear.
She put away her phone, her eyes filled with indifference.
Back in the living room, Damon was standing there watching her.
“What’s up? Something wrong?”
Chloe shook her head, paused for a second, then said, “The Summers family called and want me to come home right now.”
Damon frowned slightly, “You agreed?”
“Mhmm.” Chloe walked over to the couch, put her phone in her bag, took a sip of water from the coffee table, then looked at Damon and asked softly, “Has grandma taken her nap?”
“Mhmm.”
Putting down her cup, Chloe walked over to Damon, looking up at him.
“I’m kinda beat too, find me a room to crash.”
Damon’s eyes flashed with surprise, “You’re not leaving?”
Chloe pursed her lips, “They’re definitely up to no good calling me, let them wait.
Damon smiled, reaching out to take her hand.
Chloe quickly looked around. The servants were quietly cleaning up, paying no attention to them.
“What are you doing?”

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...
