The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride novel Chapter 896

Chapter 896 

Although it looked like Mr. Damon wasn’t feeling too hot either. 

Everyone glanced around, not quite sure what to do next. 

In the end, they all chose to play dumb, minding their own business. 

Damon walked over. Chloe turned around, ready to do the dishes. But he grabbed her arm and pulled her into his embrace. 

“When did you look at our baby photos?” 

Chloe put her hand on his shoulder, scanning the room. 

The busy housekeepers couldn’t help but sneak peeks at their direction, their eyes filled with knowing amusement. 

Chloe’s face turned red, and she pushed Damon away, “Let go of me…” 

But Damon didn’t let go. In fact, he held her even tighter, pulling her into his firm body. 

“Hey…” 

Chloe became a bit miffed, punching him on his shoulder. As she looked up at him, she saw his serious. 

“Did you really see a picture of Nathan naked?” 

Chloe answered reluctantly, “I did.” 

Damon was clearly displeased. He leaned down to kiss her, his voice a bit hoarse, “What did you see?” 

Caught off guard by Damon’s kiss, Chloe carefully scanhed her surroundings. 

“Stop messing around…” 

gaze. 

Damon held her even tighter, kissing her as he moved them towards the fridge, out of the housekeepers‘ sight. His tall body pressed against hers. “Tell me, what did you see?” 

Chloe’s back met the cold surface of the fridge, her hands on his shoulders as she whispered, 

“…I saw him naked…” 

Before she could finish speaking, Damon bit down on her lip. Though he wasn’t rough, the intent to punish was clear. Chloe’s face turned red at the soft moan that escaped her lips. 

“Stop…” 

Chloe lowered her voice, but Damon’s grip on her waist only tightened. His body pressed against hers as his tongue slipped into her mouth, capturing her tongue and biting on the tip. 

When Chloe whimpered in pain, Damon finally let her go, his lips trailing soft kisses from her ears down to her neck. 

He slowly kissed her skin. With so many people still in the kitchen, Chloe felt both anxious and embarrassed, yet his kisses sent tingles down her spine. 

“Stop messing around…” 

Chloe clung onto his shoulders, her voice low and filled with tension that only added to the charged atmosphere. 

“You saw Nathan’s… entire body…” 

Damon’s tone was filled with dissatisfaction, sounding extremely wronged. 

Chloe sighed, “It was just a picture, and he was just a baby at the time…” 

Damon went quiet for a while, burying his face in her neck, his tongue slowly trailing over her skin. 

“I’m going to teach him a lesson.” 

After a while, Damon finally whispered this sentence. 

Chloe gasped, “He’s your own brother! And Yulia’s husband… What did he do wrong? You shouldn’t…” 

“Are you defending him?” 

“I… I just don’t want mom to be upset.” 

“Then forget about what you saw.” 

Chloe paused, gently pushing Damon away. She lifted her head to look at him seriously, slowly saying, 

“Did I ever tell you…” 

“Hm?” 

“I once accidentally walked into the men’s bathroom.” 

Damon’s face changed, his body stiffening slightly. 

Seeing Damon’s reaction, Chloe gave a small laugh, wriggling out of his arms, feeling rather pleased with herself. 

However, it wasn’t long before Damon caught up to her. 

“Are you serious?” 

“Yes.” Chloe continued towards the sink, giving him a firm answer to his question. 

“Are you lying to me?” 

“There’s no need.” 

“Which bathroom?” 

Chloe turned to look at him, “What are you planning to do?“– 

“I’m going to tear it down.” 

“I’m not telling you.” 

Damon remained in a foul mood until lunch was ready. 

Lunch was a lively affair. The kitchen even prepared a few seafood dishes, placing them near Damon. 

Chloe, out of habit, cracked the shells of the seafood and casually put them in Damon’s plate. 

Wendy sat diagonally across from him and watched Damon eat the food Chloe gave him despite his cold expression, her displeasure growing. Damon was the type to keep people at arm’s length, not letting anyone invade his personal space. Yet he could accept Chloe to such a degree… Elizabeth casually glanced over everyone, merely raising an eyebrow but not saying anything. 

After lunch, Elizabeth lightly rubbed her stomach. Wendy then said to her, “I’ve arranged a welcome party for you tomorrow night. Many ladies are looking forward to it!” 

Elizabeth smiled, “Is that so? You’re quite thoughtful. How’s your mother doing? Is she well?” 

Wendy smiled, “Yes, she’s doing well, just a bit lonely without you.” 

“Is that so.” Elizabeth smiled lightly. 

“Yes!” Wendy nodded emphatically, “Would you like to go out with me? We can pick out a dress for the party.” 

Elizabeth pondered for a moment before nodding, “I do need a new dress. Let’s go.” 

“Great, I’ll have someone prepare the car.” 

“Chloe, come along. You can help me choose.” 

Wendy’s smile faltered for a moment, a hint of annoyance flashing across her face. But then she composed herself and left to arrange the vehicle. Naturally, it was the Harper family’s car and driver. Because they were familiar with her, they obedientlyed follow her orders. 

Damon and Nathan stayed at home. 

At the nearest shopping mall. 

Wendy held onto Elizabeth’s arm tightly, heading straight for the clothing section. She practically dragged Elizabeth through every brand booth. 

Chloe, used to being independent, didn’t have the habit of linking arms while shopping, especially not with Elizabeth who she had only just met. Moreover, Wendy wouldn’t give her the chance to get close to Elizabeth. 

However, she could still sense a hint of helplessness from Elizabeth. 

She got it, and Elizabeth got it even better that the relationship between the Alonso family and the Harper family was more than just personal. 

That was also the one and only reason why she didn’t break things off with Wendy straight away. 

Sometimes, you just can’t let your emotions do the talking. 

She glanced at the men’s section across the way, then took another look at Wendy clinging tightly to Elizabeth. She decided to walk over and tell Elizabeth, “Mom, you and Ms. Alonso carry on shopping. I’m gonna check out the men’s section.” 

Wendy’s eyes flickered for a moment. But Elizabeth asked with a puzzled expression, “Why are you heading to the men’s section?” 

Chloe just gave a nonchalant nod, thinking about the man who’d been giving her the cold shoulder since yesterday. She couldn’t help but smile a little. 

“I’m gonna pick out an outfit for Damon.” 

Elizabeth’s eyes lit up. Shopping for Damon! 

Before she could respond, Wendy gently chuckled, “Chloe, Damon has always worn specially tailored handmade shirts and suits. He probably won’t wear anything from the mall.”
