The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1769

Naturally, there were dissenting opinions.

Nathan and Kane leaned against each other, watching Chloe's receding figure, shaking their heads in disbelief.

"Look at Chloe. What a spitfire."

"She’s really one of a kind. Damon's a lucky guy."

Nathan snorted, "Exactly, didn't you hear what she said at the Global Economic Summit? Damon is just too clingy, and she can't shake him off. She can only make do and go along with it. So, you know, sometimes men should be a bit persistent and shameless."

Kane glanced at him, looked ahead for a moment, and his expression suddenly stiffened. He silently distanced himself from Nathan, who seemed oblivious to the impending trouble.d2

Nathan received no response, so he turned his head to look at Kane, only to find that he had already moved far away from him. He was about to curse at him, but he noticed two cold gazes falling on him. His body stiffened instantly, staring at Kane's eyes as if he wanted to pierce him.

Kane whistled and turned his head, pretending to know nothing.

In a moment, the intense gazes disappeared. When he turned his head, he found that Damon was walking towards Chloe.

By this time, Nate had already had the woman who was beaten and unable to move placed onto a wheelchair.

Damon walked up to Chloe, cast a cold glance at the people in front of him—just a casual look, yet it carried a force several times stronger than Chloe's. These people stood frozen in place, unable to make a single move.

"Take them all away."

The group was completely panicked, "Where are you taking us?"

Damon gently stroked Chloe's back, not even giving them a glance, and said indifferently: "If the person is not dead, you’ll pay an equivalent price. If she is dead, it's life for a life. It's only fair."

The group turned pale with fright, "You don't... you don't have the right..."

Damon raised an eyebrow, "Obsidian has such a powerful dark force behind it. It's a good thing to make you deserving people pay a little price. I'm not going to hide this matter. The relevant authorities better come to me, as I need to discuss with them when this law of life for life will officially be established."

"No. There is no such punishment now. It is illegal!"

Damon watched as the woman in his arms gradually calmed down, then he gently held her in his arms, his indifferent gaze slowly shifted to the person, and he said lightly: "If there isn't, I'll make it happen. If it's illegal, I'll make it legal. Once I've settled things with them, I'll let you pay the price. What do you think?"

Everyone fell silent. At this moment, the group was even more panicked, some even fell to the ground with trembling legs.

The sensible ones already understood the situation. As the top international group, nobody would believe that Obsidian was entirely clean and aboveboard.

He could have secretly dealt with them, but he chose to bring them here openly. If he wasn't absolutely confident, he wouldn't have done so. Since he dared to say these words, he could certainly do it.

There was nothing impossible for Damon.

Just like when he initially declared his full-scale crackdown on the Harper family, everyone mocked him. However, he casually transformed into the founder of the international conglomerate, Obsidian Group, in the blink of an eye.

And what he said today, was entirely within his capabilities.

Everyone knew this principle. That was how the world, the society worked. If you were inferior to others, you deserved to be trampled underfoot, and at the mercy of others. And this was the greatest motivation for everyone to not be mediocre.

Nate ordered his men to take the group away one by one, protecting Chloe and Damon as they left the airport.

Reporters reluctantly followed behind them, "Mr. Harper, what are your plans for the Harper family in the future?"

"If Presley gives in, will you forgive him?"

"Ms. Summers, how do you see your relationship with the Harper family?"

The relationship between Damon and Presley was now the focus of everyone's attention, after all, it was highly observable for the reporters. However, their questions received no response.

After leaving the airport and getting in the car, Chloe asked to go straight to the hospital.

"No!" Damon's refusal was absolute.

Nate started the car and said, "Don't worry, ma'am. That young lady is out of danger. Even if you go now, she will be unconscious. It's too late today, and considering your current physical condition, you should rest first. It's not too late to go to the hospital tomorrow."

Hearing that the girl was out of danger, Chloe's expression gradually improved, and her somewhat tense body gradually relaxed. "That's good."

It was an innocent life, and it was because of them. If she really paid with her life for this, it would be a lifelong guilt for Chloe.

She didn't kill innocents, but innocents died for her. Although she considered herself not a good person, she would never harm or implicate innocent people.

Damon silently hugged her into his arms, gently patting her shoulder, "I'll handle this. Now that the Global Economic Summit is over, you should rest at home and take care of our babies."

Chloe buried her head in his chest, exhaling deeply. "Okay. As long as the kid is okay, I'm relieved."

They were dropped off at a downtown apartment, and Nate's work for the day was temporarily over.

The internet was flooded with news about Damon and Chloe. The identities of the two, revealed one after the other, were simply unbelievable. Even movies wouldn't be so dramatic.

Those who said that Chloe wasn't good enough for Damon, or that Damon wasn't good enough for Chloe, had almost disappeared from the internet.

The incident tonight was so big that not long after it happened, the local police department issued a statement confirming that the girl with the internet ID "Daily PDA" had indeed been taken to the emergency room.
