Chapter 995
Nate answered casually, “Ah well, they might be arguing…”
The secretary shook the head, “Doesn’t seem like it. The woman’s voice is loud and clear. If she wasn’t right next to the phone, we wouldn’t hear her so clearly…
“Maybe… their chit–chat escalated into a full–blown argument…”
The secretary gave him a sidelong glance, “Nate, you can’t fool me that easily…”
The call ended. Damon had both his hands on either side of Chloe, his handsome face staring at her, a commanding presence.
“Who are you picking up at the airport?”
“Katie and Miles.”
Chloe said softly, starting to button up Damon’s shirt for him.
Without saying much, Damon picked up the phone again. Not long after, he announced, “Heading to the airport to pick up Katie.” Chloe paused in the middle of buttoning his shirt, looking up at Damon. But Damon quickly ended the call and before she could react, he had lifted her up into his arms.
She instinctively clung to his shoulders. “What… are you doing?”
Damon gave her a faint smile and leaned in to kiss her. “We’re alone here. What else could I be doing?”
Chloe’s face turned a deep shade of red. Feeling’utterly embarrassed, she found herself being carried to the large bed in the lounge.
Her hair splayed out behind her, like a beautiful, radiant rose blooming on the bed, her disheveled shirt revealing her delicate skin. Her usually aloof and cool demeanor was now replaced with a soft, submissive allure.
Especially with her usually neat and tidy professional attire now all disarrayed, she was intoxicatingly attractive.
Knowing that she had been “starving” the man these past few days, Chloe knew she wouldn’t be able to escape today. Under his irresistible charm, she didn’t even want to escape.
She reached up to wrap her arms around Damon’s neck, leaning close to whisper,
“Just… be gentle…”
A hungry wolf, when it finally got to eat, could be quite ferocious…
Damon felt his last bit of rationality crumbling. Seeing Damon’s expression, Chloe instantly regretted her words.
“No… I didn’t mean that…..”
“So… you want me to be rougher?”
Chloe’s eyes widened, “No…”
Before she had a chance to explain, Damon pulled her into a whirlwind of passion.
When Damon drove Chloe back to the Harper family home, her face was still flushed from their passionate encounter.
Damon parked his car and couldn’t help but chuckle quietly as he turned his head to look at her.
“You okay?”
His deep voice, laced with laughter, was right next to her ear. Chloe’s face turned even redder, but she stubbornly refused to answer Damon’s question.
Damon chuckled again, got out of the car and walked over to the passenger side to open the door for her.
Chloe had already unbuckled her seatbelt and fixed her hair. Taking a deep breath, she stepped out of the car. Just as she steadied herself, she felt her legs trembling. She swayed slightly, almost falling over.
Damon, who was by her side, quickly extended his hand to steady her.
“What happened?” Damon asked, a hint of surprise in his voice. His handsome face furrowed in concern as he looked down at her, all serious.
Chloe leaned against him, one hand on his shoulder. Her face was as red as an apple as she looked up at him, her eyes filled with shyness and a little displeasure.
Dámon thought for a moment before he realized what was going on. He gave a soft chuckle.
“I’m sorry, I might have been a bit too rough.”
“… And you’re laughing.”
Chloe was now truly worried. With so many people in this big house, and so many pairs of eyes, it would be so embarrassing if they noticed anything.
Damon smiled, bent down and picked her up in his arms.
Chloe was startled, “Don’t…”
Damon pretended not to hear.
“Damon!”
“I know, I’ll just carry you to the door.”
Chloe breathed a sigh of relief, reaching down to touch her trembling legs, “I told you to be gentle…”
Damon chuckled lightly, “Can’t help it, you’re too irresistible.“.
His way of shirking responsibility was truly something.
As soon as they reached the door; Chloe urged Damon to put her down. Instead, he strode forward, carrying her straight through the door.
“Hey!” Chloe was taken aback. She hadn’t expected Damon to go back on his word.
Damon looked down at her and smiled, “You haven’t fully recovered from the car ride. I’m afraid you won’t be able to stand on your own yet.”
“Then put me down now!”
“No.”
As soon as they entered the living room, the noise inside stopped.
Chloe gritted her teeth and closed her eyes. Feeling several pairs of eyes on her, she had no idea how to face them.
Amid the silence in the living room, Chloe was thinking about what to do next, what to say, and how to act more natural. However, all her thoughts were disrupted by the next sentence.
“Damon, you’re back? What happened to Ms. Chloe?” The familiar voice sounded somewhat cautious but incredibly calm.
Chloe slowly opened her eyes.
It turned out that Wendy was here, which was why they had been called back for dinner. But why called them back if she was
here?
At the moment, Damon carried her over, bent down, and put her on the couch. Chloe sat on the couch, expressionless. Just now she was thinking about what kind of expression to maintain, but it seemed she was overthinking.

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...
