The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Chapter 1235

“Alright, I get it, he’s marrying my daughter. Stop rubbing it in.”

Thinking of the little life inside Rose’s belly, her mood started to pick up.

“It’s because I want you to love us more.”

As they headed towards the villa, Chloe thought to herself, maybe there really isn’t much time to think about other

things once you have a kid.

Just as she stepped into the living room, Chloe was stopped by Presley. “Come to the study with me.”

The smile on Chloe’s face faded, and her gaze grew serious. “Alright.”

“No way!”

Elizabeth suddenly stood up from the sofa, placing the apple she was eating on the table. “We’re all family here, so

spit it out. No need to talk to her alone.”

Presley frowned at her. “Do I need your permission to talk to someone?”

“I don’t care who you talk to, but Chloe is now Damon’s wife, and I won’t let you mistreat her!”

“You tell me, why would I mistreat her?”

Elizabeth scoffed and walked towards Chloe, shielding her behind her body. “Just like before, you were against my

marriage to Royce. You told me that if I really loved him, I should let him go because I would hold him back? Affect

his future?”

Chloe looked at Presley. He didn’t answer, and just bit his lips tightly, without any reaction.

That’s what he intended to say. But didn’t he also object to Damon’s parents‘ marriage in the past?

He didn’t agree with them being together. If they hadn’t been together, Damon might not have existed. At this

moment, Chloe’s respect and admiration for Presley were rapidly fading.

“I really don’t understand what’s going through your head? One moment you think something is good, and the next

you think I did something wrong. Your attitude is always up in the air, and easily influenced by others. I wonder how

much you’re to blame for the Harper family’s current state?! Maybe, without you, the Harpers would be better off.”

“How dare you!”

“I dare to!” Facing Presley’s cane pounding on the ground, Elizabeth didn’t back down. “I’ve always been daring to

stand my ground! If I hadn’t, I wouldn’t be with Royce! If I hadn’t been with him, Damon wouldn’t have been born!

And there wouldn’t be a Nathan! I have every right to be daring! If I’m not, what can you give me?!”

Elizabeth retorted loudly without any hesitation, Presley really made it hard for her to stay in the same room with

him for long. Chloe finally understood why the old lady chose to live alone outside, and why Elizabeth had been

outside for so many years, and yet Royce Harper was always by her side.

If she were Elizabeth, she wouldn’t want to live with this moody Presley either.

“You’re always self–centered, knowing nothing about others, yet always immediately treating them as people you’ll

never like. What you think is right, who you favor, is always the best. You might never understand how tired the

people living with you are. I tried to live with you, but I couldn’t. Like so many times before, I’ve reached my limit!”

“Then get out!” Presley’s authority was challenged. An “outsider” rebuking him like this, he felt like his life’s dignity

was being belittled!

“I will leave, far away! But not now! My son is about to get engaged, about to get married. Even if you talk till you’re

blue in the face, I won’t leave!”

“I object to this marriage! The engagement the day after tomorrow is off, and the wedding after that is off too, and

even if they’ve already got a marriage license, they must get a divorce!”

Elizabeth’s expression was cold enough to freeze anyone. “Your objection doesn’t matter! Don’t forget, you almost

killed Damon once! He’s my son, who I fought to give birth to, and you have no right to interfere with his life!”

“You’re nothing but a wicked woman!”

“Yes, I am wicked, so you’d better not mess with me, or I’ll do even more wicked things!”

Elizabeth was clearly completely at her breaking point with Presley.

Upon hearing the noise, Royce hurried down from upstairs and saw the situation in the living room. His normally

calm face was now covered with a thick layer of chill air. He didn’t ask any questions, and just took Elizabeth into his

arms.

The moment Elizabeth leaned into her husband’s arms, her anger instantly turned into hurt. She opened her eyes

wide, refusing to show any weakness in front of Presley. But as the hurt turned into guilt, she buried her head in

Royce’s chest, and the tears fell, nonetheless.

“I’m sorry, honey…”

She knew that a good wife should support her husband and also respected his parents. But now, she was

confronting Presley, not fulfilling her duties as a wife, and putting Royce in a difficult position.

On one side was his father, and on the other was her. If Royce sided with her, he would be an ungraceful son in

Presley’s eyes. If he sided with Presley, she would naturally feel wronged, resentful and complain.

She loved him, but she had brought him such a difficult choice. How could she not feel guilty? She made him an

incompetent son.

Chloe could empathize with Elizabeth’s feelings. Her feelings were complex to the extreme.

。

She really didn’t understand. Why did this old man have to put his closest family in such a difficult situation?

Couldn’t he see the concessions and patience of

others?

“We will have an engagement ceremony, and we will have a wedding. Damon and I, till death do us part, there will

never be a day of divorce!”

Chloe slowly said these words.

Chapter 1235

Everyone in the living room was angry, but she, as the person who was getting married, was incredibly calm and

composed. Her calmness showed everyone her intelligence, her wisdom, and her plain but unshakeable words.

“As long as I don’t give up, no one can dictate my choices and my life!”
