The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1091

So far, he'd never laid a finger on a woman, and he didn’t plan to start now. He'd always had his fair share of flings with the ladies, but using them as punching bags? Nah, that just wasn’t right.

And besides, as annoying as this chick might be, none of this would have happened if he hadn't poked the bear in the first place. He knew he was the root of all this trouble. As a man, he couldn’t deny that.

Rhoda got a real scare from Rupin. She shrank back but mustered up the courage to walk into the room and throw herself into his arms.

"Rupin, I didn't mean to, I really love you. Why would I want to hurt you? Can you forgive me?"

Rupin looked hella annoyed, "Get lost. Even if you didn't mean to, do you have any idea how much trouble you've brought me?"

"I'm really sorry, Rupin. Can you forgive me this once? As long as I can be by your side, I'll do anything for you..."

Rupin tried to shake her off, but she wasn't letting go. "I know!... I know you're really into Ms. Summers, right? I can help you get her!"

Rupin's heart skipped a beat, and he stopped struggling.

Ms. Summers? Chloe?

He pictured Chloe's beautiful yet cold face and her tall, slender figure. His throat felt dry, and Rupin swallowed hard. That woman really stirred up a man's desire to conquer. He really wanted to see what her expression would be like on bed.

Seeing his obvious reaction, Rhoda felt a pang of jealousy.

"What's so great about her? Don't be fooled by her appearance, she's just a gold digger..."

"What the hell are you talking about!"

Rupin looked pissed, but his voice wasn't as violent as before.

Rhoda pouted, "What if she really is like that? Would you still like her?"

Rupin snorted and grabbed Rhoda's chin. "If she really is, is there any difference between liking her and liking you?"

"Of course there is, I love you!"

"Hmph... Then I guess I should like you a little more."

Rupin's mood improved a bit. Clearly, Rhoda's tactic was working.

-

Chloe took the elevator directly to the 28th floor, found room 2808, and rang the doorbell.

The door opened quickly, and Nate's figure appeared in her line of sight.

"Mrs. Harper, you're here..."

Chloe gave a slight smile, "Where is he?"

"In there."

Nate pointed inside in a low voice, then left the room.

Chloe headed inside, her eyes filled with anticipation.

As she rounded the corridor, she tiptoed forward, and soon, a familiar figure appeared. She skillfully dodged the man, but a tight grip on her waist and a familiar scent followed, leaving her trapped in the man's arms.

"What are you sneaking around for?"

His deep voice was filled with discontent; he looked like a man who had been left out in the cold.

Chloe's hand rested on Damon's shoulder, and she smiled at him. "Aren't you supposed to be at work? Why are you here?"

Damon looked down at her and said flatly, "Inspecting."

Chloe raised an eyebrow at him, "This is the Watson family's property. What are you inspecting?"

"To see if there are any undesirable suitors around you."

Chloe chuckled, "Where would there be so many undesirable suitors?"

"Hmph." Damon snorted, clearly not believing her.
