The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1667

She had shot a man point-blank, without so much as looking at him. Afterward, she was as composed as if nothing had happened.

It took a moment for Nate to close his gaping mouth, glancing at the crumpled body of Wendy.

At least it was a mercy killing. A single shot. Quick and tidy.

Chloe turned, and walked over to Stanley, handing back the pistol and the bullet magazine from her pocket. "Thanks."

Stanley took them, weighing them in his hand. Just one bullet was used.

She then walked over to Damon, giving him a small smile. "Tired. Need to sleep."d2

Damon took her hand and pulled her into his arms. He never let go of her. His hand was on her wrist, subtly checking her pulse. It was as calm as her demeanor suggested.

Without a care for the onlookers, Damon lifted Chloe into his arms. He turned and began to walk out. Nate was quick to follow, pushing Yasmine's wheelchair.

Damon's men had started to leave one by one, leaving only Stanley and his men standing. They looked at each other in confusion behind Stanley. How could their boss let another man take Chloe away so deliberately? If this happened in the past, there would have been an explosion!

Stanley ran a hand through his hair. His body was radiating irritation.

"Damn it!" He suddenly cursed under his breath, startling his men.

"Boss..."

Stanley turned abruptly, glaring at his subordinates.

"Is that Damon a freak or what?"

Everyone looked at each other, puzzled. "Huh?"

Stanley gritted his teeth.

"Does he even have a shred of humanity left in him?"

Chloe and that woman were just standing a bit too close for comfort. Anyone could tell that they were at odds. Damon, standing there, started to act all awkward and uncomfortable. At first, Stanley didn't understand why, but then he started to have an inkling.

That woman was one of Damon’s admirer from childhood. She must have been his love rival. But Damon was able to get jealous over this.

Everyone shook their heads in unison, empathizing with their boss' sentiment. "He's a freak."

Stanley's expression didn't improve. "Tell me, does that make me less of a man compared to him?"

Everyone, "Huh?"

"I don't get as jealous as he does! Does that mean he cares more about Chloe than I do?"

They glanced at each other and shook their heads in unison. "Boss, that just means Mr. Harper is a petty man! Most women won't like a man like him!"

Stanley's mood didn't lift, and his eyes were glinting coldly. "Is Chloe like most women?"

Their hearts skipped a beat. Without thinking, they shook their heads in unison. "No!"

Thump, thump, thump...

Then, the factory was filled with the wailing of Stanley’s people. They were hopping around, clutching their feet, looking rather comical.

Stanley stormed out, his anger palpable.

Damon had already left with Chloe.
