The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1237

"Whatever happened between you two, I want to make it clear today. If you insist on being with Damon, I won't leave him a dime of my shares. If you really want to leave him with nothing, then go ahead!"

Chloe nodded slightly again. "I suggest you get some rest then, so you can attend Damon's and my engagement party the day after tomorrow."

"I will attend the engagement party." Presley's words surprised everyone, who didn't expect him to cave in so easily after the argument.

Chloe squinted her eyes at Presley. Obviously, she was skeptical about what he said. She didn't think that after all that he said tonight, Presley would still agree to the engagement party as planned.

She was waiting for Presley to say something, but he remained silent. He sighed deeply, stood up, and left. Robin also rose immediately, assisting Presley.

Chloe watched coldly as Robin helped Presley leave, her lips pressed into a thin line.

Things couldn’t always go as one hoped. If they were against Presley, others would take advantage of it. The current situation might’ve been exactly what Robin wanted to see. Or maybe, everything was in his plan...

"Really, there are all kinds of shameless people. Chloe, you seem to have a lot of them around you."

Rose stood up from the sofa, her face dark but trying to remain calm. If you really wanted to nitpick, Rose was clearly provoked to make such a veiled insult to Presley in front of Royce. Now, calling him shameless was showing him enough respect.

Chloe glanced at her, intentionally slowing down her voice. "Mind your own business! Go to your room and rest."

Rose pouted, feeling a bit guilty that she hadn't been able to contribute much as a best friend. "I'm not that frail..."

Royce spoke up at this point, "Presley won't give in so easily. There might be some twists and turns at the engagement party."

His gaze fell on Chloe, "Damon has probably arranged for someone to protect you, but no matter how hard he tries, he can't protect you as well as you can protect yourself. The key to preventing certain things is still you, understand?"

Chloe nodded. "I understand." Only by taking care of herself could she avoid causing real trouble for Damon.

"You must take good care of yourself."

Chloe tipped up the corners of her mouth and glanced sideways at the man. "If I insist on being with Damon and he ends up with nothing, you're really okay with that?"

Royce glanced lightly at Chloe and asked, "Would you let him lose everything?"

Chloe smiled. "Of course not."

"That's right." Having said that, Royce looked at Elizabeth in his arms, and had a servant bring a coat. He put it on Elizabeth himself before leaving with her.

Elizabeth choked back tears and said, "Honey, I didn't expect you to trust Chloe so much?"

Royce rubbed her shoulder and said, "She's smart. But our child should be even smarter, right?"

"Yeah, that's true."

At nine o'clock in the evening, Chloe got up from the sofa in the living room and walked out of the villa. Standing at the door, she looked at the entrance not far away. All was quiet.

The security guards in the yard patrolled in shifts every so often.
