Wendy was just making a show of it. That girl, Chloe, needed to have a good hard look at herself! Like, who did she think she was to even think about joining the Harper family?
Nobody said anything, but they all knew what was going on. But when it all came out, it made her look like she was throwing her weight around, being narrow-minded and scheming.
A few simple words, and her plans for tonight seemed pretty laughable.
With a little smile, she looked at Chloe and asked, "Why can't you invite me out?"
Wendy looked back confused, took a glance at the dozen bodyguards around, and laughed. "Are you talking about them? Sorry, I don't usually have them around, it's just that someone was supposed to pick me up today. I didn't expect so many people to show up from home. Did I scare you?"
Scared her? Chloe shook her head, "Not really."
"Well, that's good." She smiled in relief, turned her head to Presley, "I'll be going now, you rest early."
"Alright, be careful on your way."
Wendy didn't say anything else and finally got in the car.
The dozen bodyguards also got in the cars one after another. Six luxury cars left in an orderly manner.
Presley habitually adjusted his jacket, and looked down at his clothes. He glanced at Chloe, snorted dismissively, and walked into the villa.
Damon didn't let her in, but took her straight back to his place.
On the way home, Wendy's face was not looking good. Damon was cold to everyone. She'd been by his side for so many years, and he'd never shown any special attention to her, just like he treated Nate.
She'd trained with them, and suffered the same hardships. She thought because she was a woman, even if he was cold, indifferent, he would eventually choose her!
Wasn't that normal?
How come after a few encounters, there was suddenly a woman by his side. And they were all lovey-dovey?
If it was all an act, fine! But Damon's attitude was very serious.
Chloe...
"Help me check up on this Chloe, I want the most detailed information, the sooner the better!"
"Yes, ma'am!"
The driving bodyguard answered.
In Damon's villa, Chloe took off her coat as soon as she entered. The black, tight-fitting fishtail dress showed off her curvy figure, making her look enchanting.
He thought he knew her well enough. They had sex with each other many times, so what else could be left unseen.
But there it was.
He'd never seen her dress like this, confidently showing her confidence. There was nothing to complain about her.
He was clear, she was doing this to prove one thing. She can handle all kinds of social situations, and important tasks. She was suitable for the Harper family.
