The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1751

All the reporters suddenly understood something and turned their confused gazes towards the reporter who had just been slapped. Indeed, as they have just stated, Chloe, being a public figure and a shrewd one at that, would never slap a reporter in public, no matter how furious she might be. Yet, could it be that she did so because that man had slandered Damon?

Although the man hadn’t fully voiced his thoughts, anyone could tell what he was about to say next. He sure was bold to speak so disrespectfully of Damon, a genuine descendant of the Harper family, carrying the blood of the Harpers in his veins. Sure, he may have been expelled from the Harper family, but that was not a lifelong sentence. In due time, someone was bound to give in. To label him as a homeless dog, that guy must truly be tired of living.

Chloe’s words now made it even clearer. If this man didn’t have backup, he certainly wouldn’t be so brazen.

The man looked somewhat flustered, “I was simply eager to uncover the truth.”

Chloe retorted icily, “Your method of seeking the truth is certainly charming.”

After she finished speaking, her icy gaze scanned every person present, “I'm not stopping you from pursuing the truth, but I hope you'd do something more meaningful. Are you all going to starve without our lives to feast on during your dinner chats?”d2

The reporters present all looked rather uncomfortable. Essentially, as entertainment journalists, they were running ragged for web traffic, catering to Internet users who enjoy drama.

What practical significance?

This was the practical significance. And nothing more.

“Ms. Summers, as an entertainment professional, don't you think your statements are a bit inappropriate?”

Chloe said, “I am merely expressing my stance on this matter in my own way. My duty as an entertainment professional is to cultivate artists and works for the public, not to provide ‘entertainment’ using the privacy and dignity of my family. If you still don't understand, let me clarify once more. None of your questions are valid. As for the rumors online, I will make sure you bear the consequences of defamation.”

Chloe’s words landed with a forceful thud, demonstrating her fierce determination. All the reporters were stifled by her dominating aura.

Not daring to provoke Chloe, they turned their attention to Alyssa and Elizabeth beside her.

“Ladies, regarding the matter of Mr. Harper being expelled from the Harper family, is there any chance for reconciliation? What are your thoughts?”

“Damon has always been my grandson. If you want to know who expelled him from the Harper family, you should ask that person instead. Ask him if he has a grandson that he kicked out.” Alyssa’s words sent a chill down the spine of the reporters. Nobody, not even Presley, had ever used the term 'expelled'. It seemed they had made assumptions.

“Then what about the rumors of Mr. Harper marrying into the Y Country’s royal family, what do you have to say about that?”

“So what if he marries into their family? Is he eating your food? If you have the guts, try to marry into the Y Country’s royal family and see if they want you.” Elizabeth was exasperated. She had never been comfortable with the reporters’ probing questions.

In public, she had always had to restrain herself as Mrs. Harper. What was so great about the Harper family? If not for her foolish love for that man, she wouldn’t have to put up with all this.

Her words left the reporters speechless.

“Any more questions? If not, please step aside.”

The reporters were not satisfied, “Ms. Summers, does your attitude suggest that no matter what, you are willing to trust Mr. Harper and stay with him? Aren’t you afraid that things may take a turn for the worse? I mean, what if, Mr. Harper really has ulterior motives in approaching you, what will you do?”

Chloe glanced at the man, and calmly stated, “Yes, I trust him. Therefore, your last question is not valid.”

The crowd fell silent.

Standing behind them, Damon hooked his lips into a smirk, turned to Royce and couldn’t help but gloat, “What should I do now?”

As a father, and a mature man, Royce had to restrain himself from punching Damon right there and then. The brat was actually flaunting his love life to him. After a moment, he sneered, “Don’t get too cocky. You’ve lived fewer years than I have. The situation isn’t over yet. Yes, Chloe cares about you, but the more she cares, the less she can tolerate any flaws. You can act nonchalant now, but don’t be surprised when you later find her crying in a corner.”

Seeing Damon’s face darken, Royce felt a sense of satisfaction. He glanced at Chloe and continued, “Just now, she must have been very angry, right?”

Damon's face was very gloomy at this point.

Having achieved his goal, Royce walked towards his wife with an easy stride.

-

The focus of the media scrutiny was right behind them, but none of the reporters dared to approach Damon for an interview.

Under the watchful eyes of their bodyguards, they strolled out of the airport. Just as they were about to get into the car, Chloe suddenly turned to Nate and said, "Don’t do anything to that journalist for now, but I want him to be monitored closely."

Nate paused for a moment, seemingly understanding what she meant, "Understood, ma'am."

Chloe nodded and got into the car.

This airport interview naturally stirred up another wave of excitement online.

"That reporter really was asking for it. I mean, who dares to say such things? No matter how stupid a journalist could be, they wouldn't say those things. I wonder who was dumb enough to hire such an idiot to stir the pot."

"Ms. Summers is still the fiery woman we know, always so powerful."

"Ah, that slap was so satisfying!"

"Although I shouldn't really be concerned, I can't help but want to know more. Ms. Summers trusts Mr. Harper so much, what if he turns out to be another Lance?"

"Have an affair? After finally marrying into the royal family, why would he?"

"What if he approached her with an ulterior motive? She is already pregnant, and the hurt would be deeper."

"Men, such unpredictable creatures."

"The thing I want to say is, Presley used to look down on Ms. Summers' background, but now that she's suddenly a high and mighty princess, I wonder if he still thinks she's not good enough for the Harper family."

"Not good enough? Hilarious, who's not good enough for whom now? Even if Damon is still the CEO of the Harper family, he's not necessarily good enough for Ms. Summers. Besides, he's nothing now."
