The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1743

Damon strode over, looking down at her from a taller vantage point.

Chloe flicked her eyes at him, mouth full of apple.

"What's the matter?"

Damon observed her apple-juice-glossed lips, his eyes narrowing imperceptibly.

The crunchy sound of apple came from her mouth, the swallowing sound was natural and ordinary, but to Damon, it was bloody adorable.

"Is it good?"d2

Chloe nodded, "Delicious."

"Do you know today is Christmas?"

Chloe paused mid-chew, her eyes darting, then she nodded.

"I know."

"Do you know what day it was yesterday?"

Chloe paused again, looking down at the apple in her hand, suddenly feeling like she was chewing wax.

If today was Christmas, then yesterday...

Wasn't it Christmas Eve?

So, this apple, was it Damon's Christmas Eve gift to her?

But

she hadn't prepared anything for him, what should she do?

Her face revealed a hint of confusion, her bright eyes flickered, suddenly lighting up with a mischievous glint.

She lifted her hand, offering the half-eaten apple to Damon.

"Lucky for you, there's still half left. Here, you can have it."

Damon looked down at the apple in front of him, his face a picture of resignation.

"Are you giving me back the apple I gave to you?"

"If something is given to me, doesn't that make it mine?"

Chloe said matter-of-factly. But seeing Damon's slight displeasure, she thought for a moment, took another bite of the apple, then knelt up on the bed, wrapped her arms around Damon's neck, and offered him the apple in her mouth.

All he had to do was open his mouth and take a bite from the edge.

However, he seemed to have anticipated her intentions. As soon as she rose, he wrapped his arms around her waist and dipped down to meet her halfway.

Chloe was taken aback.

At times like this, he always reacted the fastest.

The apple disappeared somehow, ending up in his mouth.

His lips left hers swollen, and he seemed less than satisfied when he finally let her go.

"The apple is yours, but you are mine."

Chloe sighed and resignedly sat down on the bed.

"Whatever you say, I mean, we already have babies together. Can I even back out now?"

A somewhat dangerous voice sounded from above her, "Are you thinking of backing out?"

Chloe quickly shook her head, looking up at him earnestly, "No, absolutely not."

Damon gave her a faint glance, "Get up, let's have breakfast."

"Okay."

Chloe was evidently used to Damon making breakfast.

During the meal, she kept complimenting Damon's culinary skills.

For dinner, Chloe was bundled up by Damon, and they headed out.

"What are we doing?"

Damon said nonchalantly, "We're going on a date."

Chloe, her lips hidden under her scarf, curved into a smile.

"Where to?"

"Shopping, playing, and eating."

He had thought about it all night. A date for a woman often included these things.

If they could try all the best spots for shopping, playing, and eating in Y Country, this Christmas would be perfect.

Damon's words clearly had an effect on Chloe.

Although she didn't know the specifics, she had a feeling that as long as Damon was with her, it would be interesting no matter where they went.

However, d

ue to her pregnancy, all the thrilling games, and even a large portion of the food, were off-limits to her.

In fact, she found it interesting just to wander around, but pregnancy was indeed a delicate job.

More importantly, as a princess who had just returned to the royal family, appearing in public was a bit more exhausting than usual.

After a short walk, she was already tired.

Damon's complexion was equally grim. As someone inherently preferring a quiet and simple life, being pursued and surrounded by so many people significantly affected his mood.

Seeing Chloe's struggling, he simply bent down and picked her up, striding through the crowd with a stern expression.

This action naturally elicited a lot of screams from the crowd.

It seemed their appearance was more attractive than any amusement park attraction.

Their amusement park date was somewhat unsuccessful.

Exhausted as they were, they couldn't even consider shopping.

Their shopping spree was a defeat without a fight.

In the end, only eating was left.

This was also the most crucial part. Chloe had been craving food recently and had a good appetite, so Damon planned to satisfy her cravings this time, b

ut he overestimated Chloe's stomach.

After dining at two popular restaurants in Y Country, Chloe, clutching her belly, surrendered.

"Do you still want to eat, Damon? I can't anymore, I'm so full, I feel like I have another baby in my belly."

Damon's expression was quite unpleasant, "Let's go home."

Today's Christmas date plan was a complete failure.

Mr. Harper wasn't pleased, but Chloe was satisfied.

After all, they did a lot of things she'd never tried before, within their physical capabilities. For her, it was more than satisfying.

It was only about three in the afternoon when they returned to the hotel. After settling Chloe in, Damon left again.

Chloe had no idea what he was up to.

After resting for a while, Chloe got up from the bed, checked the time, and dialed Rose.

The video call was quickly connected, and Rose's pretty face soon filled Chloe's screen.

"Merry Christmas."

Rose was sitting on a chair, and when she heard Chloe's words, she couldn't help but laugh, leaning back against the chair.

"Merry Christmas. It seems like you're having a good holiday; you look especially cheerful."

Chloe smiled. As she was about to speak, she noticed the wall behind Rose.

Her brow furrowed, "Where are you?"

Rose's eyes flickered, she sighed, and turned her phone around to show her surroundings.

"At the office."

Sensing Chloe's concern, she added:

"It's the end of the year, isn't it? All the department's quarterly reports need to be checked in detail, and the Commerce Bureau needs to be notified for review. We can't afford any mistakes. Don't worry, I won't push myself too hard. Besides, being alone at home is boring."

Alone.

Chloe pursed her lips, " You really shouldn't push yourself too hard. And you should really hire a housekeeper."

Rose gave a small shake of her head, "Not for now, I like my solitude. Having a nanny around would mean constant chatter. Don't worry about me. I get my medical check-ups regularly, and they've all come back with satisfying result. Your future son-in-law is growing healthily."

Seeing the light in Rose's eyes at the mention of her baby, Chloe managed a small smile.

"Take good care of yourself. After New Year's day, I'll fly back to be with you. Anything that comes up, make sure to let me know, okay? Don't push yourself in any way."
