The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 851

Wendy's appearance instantly brought a hint of guilt to Presley's face.

"Wendy, I have done you wrong. Had you rush all the way back here and then put you through this."

Upon hearing this, Wendy fell silent for a few seconds. The way she lowered her head and remained silent made her feelings of grievance and frustration evident.

Chloe's eyes picked up the white light in the living room, like a thin layer of frost.

After just a few seconds, Wendy shook her head lightly.

"It's okay, Grandpa. Damon has found someone he likes...and I'm happy for him..."

She paused, looked at Chloe who was not far away, and gave a small smile.

"I hope you can truly make Damon happy. But, I gotta remind you, the Harper family isn’t some ordinary family. Even as a woman, you gotta have some extraordinary qualities..."

She noticed Damon's slightly annoyed expression, but she still managed to smile, "Even though I know Damon doesn't like to hear this, and I may not be in a position to say this, but as a friend who's grown up with him, this is all I can do for Damon..."

Presley patted Wendy's hand on his shoulder with a somewhat distressed look in his eyes. Wendy's smile was bitter, but what she showed most was considerate.

"Since you're the one Damon likes, and you're marrying into this family, you gotta be careful from now on. If anything goes wrong, the Harper family will be the ones to bear the brunt. Damon likes you so much, I believe you won't let him down, right?"

"Wendy." Damon's deep voice sounded, filled with displeasure and warning.

Wendy responded with a calm smile, "Sorry Damon, I overstepped this time. Won't happen again."

Her magnanimity, understanding, and consideration, made it clear to anyone that Wendy cared for Damon, but now she was putting on this act. No amount of compliments could fully express her goodness.

The more Wendy spoke, the more outstanding she appeared, making Chloe seem even more ill-fitted.

"What? What's with that attitude? Is Wendy wrong?!"

Presley glared, as if he was ready to whack Damon with his walking stick if he said another word.

Chloe just managed to pull out a polite yet awkward smile.

It was about time, Wendy glanced at the old clock in the corner of the living room and withdrew her hand from Presley's shoulder.

"Alright, Grandpa Presley, it's getting late, you should get some rest."

Everyone looked at the time and realized it was indeed time to leave.

One by one, people started to leave. As Angie left, she gave Chloe an extra look, her emotions running high.
