The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1323

The fancy suit looked incredibly high-end, with the cuff of a pristine white shirt peeking out from the wrist as the arm lifted, the diamond cufflinks twinkling under the light.

Just one look at that was enough for Chloe to know who the newcomer was, smiling involuntarily.

Reporters swarmed around, eyes glued to the arm reaching out from the car. The clean white cuff, the expensive diamond cufflinks, and the well-defined palm, they all sensed that the man inside the car was someone they couldn't resist.

Chloe reached out and placed her hand on his, feeling the warm touch. The large hand quickly clasped Chloe's tightly. The man then revealed half of his body, his other hand resting on Chloe's slender waist, carefully pulling her into the car.

Such an intimate gesture made hearts flutter. They wanted to see more, but the bodyguards quickly shut the car door.

The car started and drove off in front of everyone.

"Who was that?"

"Must be Mr. Harper..."

"Weren't they rumored to have broken up?"

Upon hearing the reporters' chatter, Wendy dashed out, only to see the back of the departing car.

In the car.

Chloe looked at Damon beside her and asked softly, "Why are you here?"

"I'm here to take you home, of course."

Damon held Chloe's hand, occasionally giving it a squeeze, and never letting go, with a faint smile hanging on his lips.

Chloe stayed silent for a while, then suddenly turned her head to look at Damon and blinked. "Did you know Jacob was just taken away for deliberately causing a car accident, poisoning, and bribing the organizers to buy answers?"

Damon smirked. "Who else do you think could pull off such a thing?"

Chloe looked at him, blinked, and said, "Yasmine."

The smile on Damon's face faded a bit, his lips almost a straight line. Chloe secretly stuck her tongue out, feeling like she might have said the wrong thing.

Damon was clearly not pleased. He finally had a chance to show off, but the credit almost went to someone else.

The atmosphere in the car became a bit awkward. Chloe was quite helpless and shook Damon's hand. "She's my mom, you're not really jealous of her, are you?"

Damon kept his brow furrowed, stayed silent, and firmly showed his displeasure.

"But you really saved me a lot of trouble." Chloe leaned closer to him, holding his big hand, her voice soft, beginning her usual task—

To dissipate his dissatisfaction!

But Damon huffed. "I'm not great. Yasmine is better."

Chloe twitched her lips. She couldn't even praise her own mom now? She was thinking, if she stopped her usual task today, would Damon sleep separately from her tonight?

But if he was even jealous of her mother, wasn't Damon a bit too narrow minded?

"What are you thinking about?" Chloe's silence was too much, and Damon couldn't help but ask. This woman, once you let your guard down, you never knew what she was thinking.

Chloe glanced at Damon. "I'm thinking, who's better, you or Yasmine?"

Before bed, Chloe took a shower, lay in the middle of the bed, and chatted with Rose on her phone.

[I'm not coming back, you get some rest.]

Rose sent her an exasperated emoji. [You're so annoying! Always moving around just because you have houses!]

[You can do the same, hurry up and earn money to buy a house for your kid! Without a house and a car, your kid won't feel secure!]

[Chloe, you're so materialistic...]

[If you want, you can send your son to live with me! I have plenty of houses.]

[…Go away! My son has self-respect, okay?]

[Haha sure!]

[I don't want to talk to you right now!]

Rose sent an eye-rolling emoji and their chat ended.

Thinking of Rose possibly questioning their friendship on her bed, Chloe couldn't help but laugh, she turned over and put her phone aside, then started to feel sleepy.

Damon came out of the study, ready to enter the bedroom, his hand on the doorknob, but found the door wouldn't open. He tried again, finally confirming that the door had been locked from the inside.
