The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1565

This time, Phoebe surprisingly complied, opening her mouth. Azriel popped the lollipop in, watching her quiet and obedient demeanor. A soft smile flickered in his eyes. "Can we sit down now?”

How humiliating!

Phoebe didn't move, so Azriel gave her a little tug and she went along with it, plopping down with her lollipop.

Everyone was baffled, each wearing a mental question mark. Phoebe was surprisingly docile now, as if the previous chaos had been nothing but a dream. It was a major contrast.

A lollipop, peach flavored, was all it took? What kind of magic trick was this?

Cole was in the dark as to why.d2

But with the situation finally under control, he was more than relieved.

The girl completely ruined the banquet, and he felt thoroughly embarrassed. If things continued, tonight's business dinner would be a complete disaster. Even the killer had been revealed, what else could possibly happen?

Grace turned pale with fear, standing in place, trembling, her lips unable to find the words to speak.

Cole took a deep breath, his facial muscles twitching. He put on a gentlemanly smile and said to Damon, "Twenty billion dollars, Damon, are you serious?"

"Mm."

Damon responded simply, giving Cole a confirmed answer.

Cole glanced at Wendy, pondering. Although unsure why Damon gave them the money, it was exactly what they needed.

Wendy bit her lip tightly, her face full of anxiety. Her heart was filled with anticipation. With this, her relationship with Damon might have a chance to turn around. She didn't know what Damon was thinking, but tonight, in front of Chloe, she was the winner. Turning to Chloe, she said, "I never thought that tonight's biggest investor would be Damon. I don't know why, but I'm grateful for his faith and support in the Alonso family."

Phoebe looked worriedly at Chloe, fearful that Damon's actions would upset her, leading to irreversible consequences. But seeing Chloe's sweet smile, Phoebe realized she was worrying for nothing. Who had ever seen Chloe do anything irreversible because of a problem? No one.

Chloe leaned back in her chair, ignoring Wendy's deliberate provocation. She watched as the total investment on the screen increased by twenty billion dollars.

"I wonder, Ms. Summers, did you know Damon was going to invest so much in the Alonso family."

"No." Damon replied, "But she won't be angry with me."

"Really?" Wendy smiled, "That's good. It would be a shame... if you two were to fight over this."
