Chapter 951
She’d always been a bystander in everything, no need to worry about the consequences. But now she got herself tangled up in a mess, and if she said the wrong thing, she’d be screwed
Chloe looked at Wendy with a smirk.
Wendy’s facial expression subtly changed, and finally, under the gaze of everyone, she had no choice but to speak up.
“I didn’t really pay attention at first, ‘cause I never thought Chloe would be a klepto. But you’re right, Sierra took off her jewelry after you went to the bathroom… And I remember when you came out, Sierra was drying her dress, I was at the outer sink and you were washing your hands at the sink behind her… Yeah, that’s all I remember.”
As Wendy spoke, she was seriously trying to recall the situation. Though she didn’t explicitly say Chloe stole Sierra’s bracelet, her words sure made it seem more likely. Her words pointed out that Chloe definitely knew the exact time when the bracelet went missing. And she happened to be near the spot where the bracelet was placed around that time
Everyone, who had been keeping a low profile out of fear of Damon, started to act up again. Their gazes turned from doubt to clear disdain for Chloe.
After hearing that, Sierra got even more confident.
“Give me back my bracelet right now!”
Chloe looked at her coldly. “I told you I didn’t take it.”
“You…” Sierra was so pissed at Chloe’s stubbornness and pointed at her, “Wendy’s already spelled it out for you, you obviously stole my bracelet, just admit it!”
“Oh? So what Ms. Wendy was actually saying is that I stole the bracelet?” Chloe looked at Wendy sarcastically.
Wendy felt a lump in her chest and inwardly cursed Sierra for being such a dumbass!
Glancing at Elizabeth’s icy gaze, she couldn’t figure out what she was thinking, but Wendy still felt nervous.
Not to mention Damon… When she looked up at him, he wasn’t looking at her. But she had clearly felt his icy gaze flashing past her.
“I… I was just telling the truth. I didn’t say Chloe stole it though…”
Sierra glanced at Wendy, “Wendy, why are you still defending her? If you saw it, just say it. Even if you do not say it, she won’t appreciate your kindness.
Wendy gritted her teeth. Sierra, you stupid idiot.
Chloe just stood there, smirking, her face full of sarcasm.
“So that’s how it is. But the thing is, I really didn’t take your bracelet. So does this mean that Ms. Wendy’s ‘seeing me steal the bracelet‘ was just a setup?”
“I heard that Ms. Wendy and the two gentlemen from the Harper family are close, especially Damon, but now Damon’s fiancee is not her, she must be upset…”
“Everyone thought Ms. Wendy would be Damon’s wife.”
“Well, you never know, if this woman is kicked out, doesn’t that give Ms. Wendy a chance?
Feeling the suspicious gazes from people around her, Wendy was frowning deeply. After mulling it over for a while, she pulled Sierra to her side.
“Sierra, let’s just drop this. It’s just a bracelet, and we can buy another one.”
Sierra’s eyes widened, “How can I? There was only one of that bracelet when I bought it. I love it, how can I let her get it for free? No! I need to find that bracelet today!”
Chloe watched their conversation, pondering for a moment. Finally, her eyes sparkled and she put her hands slightly on both sides of her body.
Then, her expression changed. She turned around, looked at the gloomy–faced Damon next to her, hesitated for a moment, and walked over.
Damon’s eyes followed Chloe closely. Before she even got close, he stretched out his arm as if worried she would fall, and embraced her in advance.
His careful manner made everyone’s hearts flutter. It turned out this seemingly aloof man also had a gentle side. But all his tenderness and pampering was reserved for only
one person.
“How much longer?” Damon’s calm but dissatisfied voice rang out.
Chloe smiled apologetically. She knew he was upset because of her reluctance to get him involved and her insistence..
She was touched by his respect for her, but she didn’t need his help with this.
Most of the people here were women who wish to marry into the Harper family. What she wanted to be was not a woman who needed protection. But a woman who. deserved to stand by his side.
She looked up at the handsome face of the man, her hands resting on his chest, and slightly rose on her tiptoes to help him straighten his–tie. Damon subconsciously leaned down a bit in response.
“Hmm?”
His low questioning voice made Chloe look at him, and then she smiled slightly, her gaze shifting to his side face.”
Damon’s body curved slightly, leaning closer to Chloe’s face.
“There’s someone in my room, can you get them down here?”
Chloe whispered softly and then slightly moved back, her hands still resting on his chest as she smiled and looked at him.
Damon straightened up, staring at her for a moment, then his thin lips curved slightly, taking her hand from his chest and lightly kissing it.
“Just wait.”

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...
