The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1771

Damon gently stroked her hair, nodding, “Sure, whatever you say. There's a lot to be happy about. For example, I'm the wealthiest, and our little ones will only grow up in the best environments, perfect in every way, right?”

Thinking about their children's worry-free future, a bright light gradually ignited in Chloe's eyes. She was determined to love them dearly, very, very much. She wanted to watch them grow from infancy, providing them with the best genes, the best life, and the most abundant love.

Nothing was more important than their babies now.

It was evident that Chloe's emotions had genuinely shifted at this moment. Damon kissed the tip of her nose, feeling reassured, but there was still a hint of jealousy lingering. In the end, it was those two little rascals that mattered most.

Elizabeth and the others didn't take long to rush over. When they returned to the hotel last night, they didn't find Damon and Chloe. They later learned that the couple had returned to P City overnight. Upon seeing the overwhelming news on the Internet, they rushed back in a hurry.

Just as Damon finished comforting Chloe, Elizabeth stormed into the room. “Chloe!”d2

As Damon stood up, he was nudged aside by Elizabeth. She looked Chloe over from head to toe before placing her hand on Chloe's belly, her face filled with worry. “Are you alright?”

Chloe calmed down, a warm feeling gradually emerging, “I’m fine.”

Elizabeth's eyes started reddening, "Don’t pretend to be strong for my sake. I don’t care how resilient you were in the past, but now you’re as fragile as porcelain, you understand? You’re pregnant and vulnerable to mood swings. This isn’t something you can just shrug off. Do you know how many pregnant women suffer from prenatal depression? Your priority now is to take care of yourself, you silly girl. What if something happened to you? How would I explain it to your mother? Of course, my grandchildren are also important."

The daughter-in-law was important, and so were the grandchildren. She had to treat them equally.

Elizabeth sobbed loudly, while Chloe patted her back gently, her voice filled with soothing tones, “I’m fine now. I’ll take care of myself.”

Despite Chloe's soothing words, Elizabeth continued to sob, complaining, “Do you know how worried I've been lately? Could you please be more careful? You’re such a handful daughter-in-law. I'm nearly dying from the stress you've caused.”

Her sobbing sounded heartbroken, as if she had suffered a great injustice. Chloe continued to console her, “I'm sorry. It’s my fault. I won't be like this anymore, I'm sorry...”

Damon was taken aback, wondering who was the pregnant one here? The woman he just comforted was now comforting someone else?

Eventually, Elizabeth was comforted by Chloe and lay against her chest, hiccuping from her recent sobbing.

Outside the villa, Royce offered Damon a cigarette. The two stood tall and silent for a long while before Damon finally broke the silence with a chilly voice. “Control your wife. Who's the pregnant one here?”

Royce took a drag from his cigarette, “You should control your wife too. Don't make my wife upset and angry. If it weren't for her being your wife, do you think I’d let her off so easily?”

Damon's face visibly grew grim, "Why don’t you control your father? Who do you think caused this situation?"

Royce tugged at the corner of his mouth, “You're quite capable yourself. Do you think you can control your father?”

Damon chuckled coldly, took a casual drag from his cigarette, turned his head towards Royce and said, “Wanna try?”

Royce extinguished his cigarette and tossed it into a nearby trash can. He placed his hands in his pockets, turned his head to Damon, and said, “Let’s go.”

Damon did the same with his cigarette, “Let’s go.”

The two men eyed each other for a few seconds before turning to head to the backyard for a spar. But then, they heard Elizabeth's nasal voice from the doorway. “Honey, Chloe’s hungry. She wants your chicken pie.”

Royce paused and turned to look at Elizabeth. Her eyes were still red. When she saw him looking, she grinned, “I recommended it to Chloe. I told her your cooking skills are top-notch. Chloe admires you a lot.”

When Royce wasn't budging, Elizabeth pursed her lips and added, “I kind of want some, too.”

A helpless smile played on Royce's handsome face. Eventually, he turned around and headed inside, with Elizabeth following behind him, chuckling, “Honey, your cooking is delicious. I miss your cooking.,.”

“Mhm, I know.”

“You’re so good, honey. On behalf of our daughter-in-law, thank you.”

“Stop using her as an excuse.”

“Hehehe.”

Well, Damon didn’t even need to show up. With just a few words from a woman, his dad was under control. There was no challenge at all.

He was about to go inside to accompany Chloe, but remembering he just smoked, he stayed outside to let the smell of smoke dissipate.

A few minutes later, a blue sedan slowly pulled up outside the mansion. Damon squinted as a slender figure stepped out of the car.

“Huh? Did you know I was coming and decided to greet me in advance?”

Damon frowned, “What are you doing here?”

Rose stepped up onto the porch, “Of course, I came to see my dear Chloe. Mr. Damon, do you realize the consequences of making a pregnant woman upset?”

Rose passed by Damon and walked straight into the living room.

“Chloe!”

“Rose?”

Two excited voices sounded one after the other. Damon furrowed his brows, not looking pleased, but he still didn’t go in. He stood at the entrance for over ten minutes until another car pulled up outside. Nathan got out of the car, holding Anya, followed by Yulia.

Nathan: "Well, look who's waiting for us. We're humbled by your welcome, bro."

Anya: "Damon. Are your wife's babies doing well?"

Yulia: "Hello, Damon. How's Chloe?"

As they entered the house, Chloe's surprise echoed through the room.

"Yulia? Anya?!"

"Hello, Chloe."

"Chloe, Hug."

"Chloe, I'm still here, you know." Nathan protested, feeling ignored.
