The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1560

She lifted her gaze to the two figures standing not far away, "Shall we, Mr. Harper, Ms. Summers? Let me lead you to your seats. I've arranged the best spots for you, just for today."

Of course, she had to give Chloe the best seat, so she could watch the glory of the Alonso family, which she had long coveted, now flourishing under her control. Whether in the present or the future, it was something Chloe could only yearn for but never attain.

Chloe, however, was candid enough to reveal her intentions. "Damon was going to reserve the best seats for us," she admitted, "I told him you'd do it. Seems I was right."

Wendy's eyes hardened, "Ms. Summers, you always seem to know everything. Tell me, why do you think I'd reserve the best seats for you?"

As they chatted and walked over to their seats, Chloe looked at the empty front row and smiled confidently. "Ms. Wendy, you've tripped over me quite a few times, always wanting to see me upset and humiliated. This time is a rare opportunity, and you called me over regardless of rumors. Since I've come, it's only natural for you to arrange the best seats for me. You want me to watch the Alonso family, which I've proclaimed to covet, thrive without me. You want me to feel the agony of desiring something I cannot have. Isn't that right?"

Their conversation was open, and the onlookers were all ears. Chloe's words enlightened those who were previously confused.d2

From the start, Wendy's intention of inviting Chloe was clear. It wasn't enough for Wendy to simply have Chloe present. She must have more plans hidden.

The crowd didn't think that Ms. Summers, who was invited and destined to be humiliated, was out of place though. She was fine, eating and drinking well, and her man was taking good care of her.

Whispers spread among the crowd.

"Does she really think she could humiliate Ms. Summers this time?"

"Who would've thought Mr. Harper would accompany her today. He's treating her like a queen. I am so jealous of her."

"Yeah. Not only did he forbid her from drinking alcohol, but he even refused to let her have soda. The way he sternly made Ms. Summers drink milk was just too envy-inducing."

"I bet no one knows the pain of unfulfilled desires better than Ms. Wendy."

While their voices were hushed, Wendy could still hear what they were saying. She bit her lip hard, a flash of pain in her eyes followed by a look of ferocity and embarrassment. What they were saying was true. From the moment she saw Damon outside the hotel, she knew that tonight wouldn't be any easier for her than it would be for Chloe. But after all she had been through, this was a small price to pay. Whether she was sad or not didn't matter anymore, her heart was already scarred. As long as she could see Chloe in pain, she was happy. Happy beyond words.

Those whispers meant nothing to her. She had heard them before. If she cared, she wouldn't have invited Chloe.

"Chloe, I admit you're smart. Everything you said is true. I do want you to know what it feels like to want something you can't have. But I'm curious, didn't you vow never to marry if you couldn't have the Alonso family?"
