The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1426

The tense atmosphere from their just-ended Board of Directors meeting had barely subsided, and they were about to call for another meeting right away.

The purpose of this meeting was well-known. The last board meeting aimed to decide the next chairman between Robin and Damon. In the end, Damon not only refrained from participating in the competition for the chairman position but also resigned from his role in front of all shareholders.

However, the final appointment letter had not yet been officially issued, so they could only act as if nothing had happened.

Damon still held the position of CEO.

This time was different from the past because rumors were circulating within the company that Presley intended to announce at the upcoming board meeting that Robin would succeed as chairman.

Indeed, these rumors were true.

Yesterday's video from Y Country's airport showed Wendy initially in a wheelchair. Some media outlets had raised doubts about this. Early this morning, Cole, who was far away in Y Country, invited reporters from the domestic news agency stationed in Y Country to hold a press conference and provide an explanation for Wendy’s situation.

At this moment, in Damon's office, the video of the press conference held by Cole, intentionally circulated domestically, was also being played.

Cole said in front of the media, "Everyone knows that the Harper family and the Alonso family have been close friends for many years. My daughter Wendy and the eldest grandson of the Harper family have grown up together as good friends. Even if there is no love between the two, there is deep friendship. Everyone is curious about why my daughter is sitting in a wheelchair. Now I will answer you all. It's all because of the eldest grandson of the Harper family. Wendy has six bullet holes in her body.

“I can't even imagine. Damon is also a child I watched grow up, and he shouldn't be such a cruel and ruthless person. However, he has harmed my daughter, the girl he has taken care of since childhood, in this way. If there is any reason for him to become like this, I think it must be due to Ms. Chloe's influence. I believe that she’s jealous and unwilling, afraid that Damon will leave her because of family and identity reasons to be with Wendy, and that takes this opportunity to speak ill of Wendy in front of Damon, Damon would not do such a thing.

“The relationship between the Alonso family and the Harper family has been maintained for so many years, and it's really not easy. I am also willing to believe that Damon is only temporarily infatuated with that woman.

“Nevertheless, I want to say, if a man who controls the entire Harper Group, listens only to a woman's words, the Harper Group will undoubtedly pay a substantial price for this in the near future.

“For the benefit of the Harper Group, I want to issue a warning. If Damon persists in his infatuation and remains involved with that woman, it may be prudent for the Harper Group to seek alternative management in the future."

His final remarks appeared casual but carried a semblance of reason.

Nonetheless, with the imminent board meeting and Cole’s released video, Damon undoubtedly faces a significant setback. As the heir to the Harper Group, Damon had often been influenced by a woman, making him prone to disruptions in his decision-making.

Damon arched an eyebrow, turned his head to face the silent Nate, and requested, "Provide a summary of his intent."

Nate bit his lip, swallowed nervously, and spoke with a serious tone, "In essence, Mr. Alonso suggests that Mrs. Harper is a perilous seductress, and you, in turn, are an ineffectual ruler."

Damon fell into a brief silence, then smiled and remarked, "A perilous seductress. He summarized it well."

Nate was speechless and thought to himself, “Could you be a tad more serious, Mr. Harper?! It’s quite evident that you were labeled a ‘useless emperor,’ yet the emphasis still lingers on the perilous seductress.' Doesn't that appear somewhat too casual?!”
