Chapter 1173
“Yes, Alyssa.”
No matter how grim Presley’s face looked, Hannah obeyed and pushed Alyssa away.
At this point, Royce also got up with Elizabeth “Let’s go.”
“What are you doing?!”
Royce ignored Presley’s roar and left the dining room. Royce’s assistant was already waiting for him at the
entrance. “Sir, madam, the car is ready, shall we leave now?”
“Yes.”
Chloe also finished the last spoon of soup at this moment, Damon did not speak, took her hand, and walked towards
the dining room exit. “You…”
“Sir, madam.” Nate was also at the entrance of the dining room, seeing the two people coming out, he quickly
greeted them quietly.
“Let’s go.”
“Yes!”
Although the atmosphere was chilly, the dining room was still full of people. Now, only Presley, Wendy, and Addie
were left.
Watching everyone leaving one after another, Wendy bit her lip tightly, her hands clenched together, her already
sickly face now even more distressed. “Ah…” Addie was even more dumbfounded, trying to speak to persuade
them to stay, but before she could say anything, they had already left. With a pause, she glanced at the grim–faced
Presley and the awkward Wendy, and quickly chased after them.

בי
Ms. Alonso had just moved in with great effort, just to get closer to Damon! Now that Damon was leaving, wouldn’t
all her previous plans fall through?
Outside the villa gate, three cars were already parked. When Addie chased out and saw this, she felt even more
dissatisfied. This was clearly not a decision made just this morning! They must have planned to do so since
yesterday when Presley proposed to bring Ms. Wendy to the Harper family. Knowing that no matter what they said,
they couldn’t change Presley’s decision, they prepared in advance. No wonder they didn’t mention a word about
Ms. Wendy moving in last night, and they didn’t seem to care at breakfast this morning. So this was the plan all
along!
Seeing Alyssa about to get in the car, Addie suppressed her anger and quickly walked up. “Ms. Alyssa, what are you
doing? Isn’t this public denial of Presley’s decision, making our family a laughingstock?”
Alyssa cast a sidelong glance at her and snorted, “Laughingstock? Who’s the outsider? He is the one who invited
the outsider. If he’s laughed at, doesn’t he deserve it?”
“Grandma!”
Wendy’s voice suddenly came over. Wrapped in her coat, with a sickly face, she quickly walked over and stopped
her.
“Grandma, don’t leave, if the family doesn’t want me here, I can leave. There’s no need to make you
uncomfortable.”
Her face was anxious and aggrieved, her eyes were also red. Then she turned to Damon, “Damon, I’m sorry, I’ve
caused you trouble…”
She behaved very well, but Damon was unmoved and completely ignored her.
“The Harper family’s house is so big, how could it not accommodate you? Chloe did go too far in beating you to
such a state. The Alonso family and the Harper family have always had a good relationship. For various reasons,
you’re recovering in the Harper family home, and we should take good care of you.”
Alyssa said flatly, her gaze swept over Presley behind her, and her face became cold.
“But let me make it clear, although there are reasons why the Harper family should take care of you, everything
should be reasonable and fair. You have a bad relationship with Chloe, and you can’t let go of Damon! I do
understand your intentions. You pose a threat to Chloe, but I don’t make the decision in the house. If so, there’s no
need for me to stay here!”
Hearing Alyssa directly expose her intentions, Wendy’s face turned red.
“I didn’t…”
“No? If I were you, Wendy, I wouldn’t agree to come here to recover. I know your real intentions, but I can’t do
anything about it. This is a really uncomfortable situation. This is a shameless act… Chloe injured you, and you not
only want her to be responsible, but you even go to her house to make her uncomfortable.”
Wendy quickly shook her head, “No, I’m not…”
“If you still don’t understand, let me make it clearer, this situation is like me accidentally hitting you on the street,
and you cling to me for medical compensation. In fact, it is true that if I hit you, I should compensate you, but aren’t
the Alonso family and the Harper family like one family? Would the relationship between the families end if I didn’t
compensate you? Isn’t the relationship between the families deeper than that?/
“Grandma, I don’t mean that at all.”
Saying these words loud and clear, with every word enunciated, made Wendy feel embarrassed.

“Maybe I’m being petty. You recover well here Where we want to go is our business, it’s not for you to decide!
“Don’t give me that cold look. Since you say this house is yours to rule, then it’s up to you. We give you enough
power and space, and no one contradicts
you You should be happy.”
This was clearly said to Presley. After she finished, she stood up from the wheelchair with some effort, and stiffly got
into the car.
Then she seemed to remember something, glanced at Elizabeth next to her, her plain face became even colder,
and said harshly to Presley, “After all this time, you are still so easily blinded by women. It has made me question if
I’m actually a good person! Otherwise, why would you end up choosing me! Every time I think about your
stubbornness, your taste, and your adamant decisions, I remember all those people who suffered because of your
mistakes! Don’t forget, it’s you who almost cost me the chance to meet Damon
Presley’s eyes darkened instantly.
Elizabeth buried her face in Royce’s chest, sobbing quietly. Royce held her tightly, silently leading her to the car.
Chloe was stunned by Alyssa’s words, looking up in disbelief at the man holding her. Was Damon almost not part of
this world? Did Elizabeth almost lose him due to Presley’s mistake when she was young?
Watching the events of the day unfold, Chloe felt her guess might’ve been right, her eyes turned cold, she took
Damon’s hand and resolutely led him to the car.
If that was the case, she had even less reason to forgive Presley’s decision.

Three cars left the Harper family in succes
succession.
