The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1041

Chloe chuckled, "Do you know why Seth suddenly bought a house here?"

Damon raised an eyebrow, "Do I even exist in your heart? You're already concerned about others as soon as Rose left?"

Chloe blinked, "Who am I concerned about?"

"Don't use your slyness to trap me into talking." Displeasure spread across Damon's face.

This man was too smart! Chloe couldn’t deal with him anymore!

Cicely, clad in a white silk nightgown, descended the staircase. Her steps were agile and the hem of her gown swished beautifully with her movements. She wore no expression, but radiated an air of delicacy. Her gaze swept the living room without any visible emotion, her iciness contrasting with an indescribable allure.

The two servants in the living room immediately stepped forward to greet her.

"Ms. Cicely."

"I want some milk."

"Of course, please wait a moment." A servant left to prepare it.

Cicely lowered her gaze to her immaculately manicured nails and quietly asked, "Isn't he coming tonight?"

The servant promptly answered, "Mr. Diaz said you should rest early. He has been quite busy lately."

Cicely smiled faintly, "I am going out tomorrow."

The servant hesitated, "Ms. Cicely, Mr. Diaz has instructed..."

"You can call and ask him." She said calmly.

The servant glanced at her, acknowledged her request, but shook his head as he turned away. Even though she had Mr. Diaz's number on her phone, she never seemed to call it. She always had to go through them for everything.

There were rumors that Mr. Diaz had taken a lover behind Danielle's back, and while this lover was beautiful, but...was she truly a lover?

She never smiled at Mr. Diaz, barely spoke a word more than necessary, always wore the same few expressions of indifference, and seemed to care less about Mr. Diaz's whereabouts.

Was she really his lover?

Perhaps Mr. Diaz found his life too tranquil and intentionally sought someone to stir up some trouble.

Upon connecting the call, the servant immediately said, "Mr. Diaz, Ms. Cicely would like to go out tomorrow."

There was silence on Seth's end for a few seconds before he asked, "Where to?"

"I'm not sure..."

"Let me do the talking." Cicely's voice sounded from behind him, and the servant promptly handed her the phone.

"It's me."

Seth hesitated, "Hmm."

"I'm getting a bit bored. I want to get out for a bit."

"Let's go in a few days, I'll go with you."

Cicely's hand lightly traced the surface of a cabinet, completely ignoring his patient tone, and continued,

"I am going out tomorrow."

Seth's tone didn't waver. "I don't have time."

"I didn't say I needed you to come with me."

Seth fell silent for a moment, the atmosphere on the other end of the line chilling.

"If it worries you, have one of your men follow me. But I must go out tomorrow."

Miles was the last to arrive because he had been helping Katie design clothes and create styles based on the designs. He looked a bit tired.

The reporters who had been surrounding Beverly and Jacob swarmed Jeanette as soon as they saw her. The two of them stood in place, watching Jeanette and other Starlight International artists be surrounded by reporters. Although they were a bit displeased, they still kept smiling.

"Jeanette, what brand did you choose this time?"

"Are you nervous about attending Fashion Week for the first time?"

"Is the brand you chose really not as good as RM?"

Jeanette stopped in her tracks, looking straight into the camera. She stood tall, a slight smile on her face, but her eyes were a bit cold. Her long hair flowed over her shoulders, giving off a confident and bold vibe.

"Inherent."

The reporters fell silent for a moment, exchanging glances.

"What is Inherent?"

Jeanette chimed in again, "Even though this brand isn't as famous as RM, I really dig it, and I believe it's gonna blow up in the future. This is my first time hitting up fashion week, so I'm definitely gonna be a bundle of nerves, but mostly I'm just psyched."

It finally clicked with the reporters, who all started asking, "What brand is Inherent? I've never heard of it, have you?"

"Nope."

Jeanette cracked a smile, "It's a brand spanking new brand..."

At that point, one of the reporters piped up, "I've been scouring the net, but can't find any dirt on this brand."

Hearing this, the rest of the reporters also whipped out their phones to look it up, but sure enough, there was zilch.

"So, this brand Jeanette's raving about, it's not even on the market yet?"

Just then, Jacob and Beverly sauntered over. Jacob was the one who spoke. He wore a gentle smile on his face, but his eyes were practically dripping with scorn.
