The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 849

Presley instantly scowled, giving Damon a chilling look before he barked, "Are you for real?"

Just as Damon was about to respond, Presley cut him off with a shout, "Think before you speak!"

There was a stern warning in his eyes.

Damon squinted, his lips twitched as if to say something, but Chloe gently held his hand.

"Can you tell me what I did wrong?"

Presley's gaze snapped to her, "And what's it got to do with you?"

The atmosphere in the room tightened once again, even Robin's smile had faded. Everyone else also put on serious faces. Presley's fury was so intense, it was rare to see.

But Chloe didn't look mad or the least bit flustered or scared. She just held Damon's hand tighter, looked up at Presley, and said with a smile, "I just don't want to put Damon in a tight spot, Grandpa Presley. If you two are beefing, let me take the heat. After all, I'm also involved."

Presley's eyes flickered. At Chloe's calm face, his rage slowly subsided. She really was a cool-headed woman.

After a while, he suddenly chuckled.

"Do you really think I'd pick a fight with you and Damon?"

Chloe calmly looked at Presley, "I think you know him best."

Presley's gaze sharpened. He glanced at her hand tightly gripping Damon's.

"Hmph."

He snorted, "You're a smart cookie, so ask yourself, what makes you think you're good enough for him? Damon's going to head the Harper family. As for the lady of the Harper family, how do you think you're up to it?"

Chloe blinked, quietly said, "In a nutshell, you're looking down on my family background."

Presley's eyes widened. Her directness made him look a bit stiff and conventional!

"You don't need to get mad, you want a perfect match, I get it. But what if I tell you today, Damon loves me, that's reason enough for me to be with him, and that's reason enough for me to be the future lady of the Harper family. Can you accept it?"

"..."

Everyone in the room fell silent, their eyes filled with irony and complexity.

Love?

"You might all think, it's the most ridiculous, childish, irresponsible reason. But this is the fact..."

Chloe took a pause, laughed as she looked at Presley, and slowly said, "Whether you accept it or not, this is the reality."

"You..." Presley instantly got angry and glared.

"Feeling is something nobody can control, including Damon himself. Since he chose me, who can force him?"

"As for the perfect match... I'm not really sure to what extent a match is perfect. If we're talking about wealth, power, and influence, I don't think any family can really match the Harper family. If that's the case, if others can do it, why can't I?"

"You're pretty good at expressing yourself! Even though other families can't match the Harper family, they at least have some autonomy, even potential support. But you, what can you offer him?"
