The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1395

Chapter 1395

Winston's face instantly went stiff, his eyelids twitching involuntarily. "Where'd you hide the alarm?"

Chloe, with a smile, said, "You could choose to wake up at 7:29 if you want." She rolled up the car window as she spoke.

"Hey, Chloe…." Winston took a couple of quick steps forward.

The car sped past him.

Winston was speechless.

Damn, this wicked woman!

And she was like this even though she was pregnant!

-

Back at the apartment, Chloe freshened up, got into her pajamas, and sat down at the piano with her sheet music.

I Believe...

At the end of the sheet, there were a few lines -

Like a dream, like a miracle.

I hope when I dream of you.

You'll be there.

I Believe.

These words seemed simple. But often, the simplest things were the hardest to understand.

Who was "you"?

Chloe shook her head, took a deep breath, and skillfully played a few notes.

...

Ever since the board meeting, Damon hadn't shown his face at the company.

The whole of the Harper Group was uneasy. They heard that Mr. Harper announced his resignation at the board meeting. Not to mention the next chairman, he even gave up his current position as CEO. This was something no one had expected.

But some people thought it was only natural. Everyone in the Harper family was greedy for the vast Harper Group. If the power of the Board fell into someone else's hands, who would still keep Mr. Harper's executive power in the company? His resignation now was much wiser than being forced to resign later.

But the Harper Group was so huge, for Damon to say he'd given it up showed his resolve. Especially since he did it all for a woman.

Without Damon, how could the Harper Group possibly continue to operate?

Used to following Damon's commands, but suddenly without a leader, the atmosphere at the Harper Group was tense.

Presley was in the hospital. From the moment he heard the news, he was holding his breath. But from the beginning, Damon's successive rebellions made him reluctant to take the initiative to discuss it. Damon never brought it up in front of him either.

When a few of the company's minor directors came to visit him, they always subtly brought up the issue.

A country couldn’t be without a king; a family couldn’t be without a master. The company had been moving forward according to Damon's pace for so many years that it had become a habit. Now that he suddenly resigned, it made people uneasy.

So far, even though the grandfather and grandson saw each other almost every day, they never mentioned this.

Damon's words were chilling, making Wendy very uneasy. With a nervous heart, she entered the ward. When Presley saw her, he suddenly felt annoyed. He had lived such a long life, and it was because of Wendy that he had almost lost his reputation.

Time and again, he didn't know how many people had laughed at him.

"Grandpa Presley..." Wendy knew she had been having bad luck lately. Whether it was news reports or comments online, Presley was mocked and ridiculed because of her, making her feel embarrassed too.

"You're here." Presley responded nonchalantly.

Felix was by the bedside. From the moment Wendy stepped through the door, his eyes were glued to her. His eager gaze was hard for Wendy to ignore. She looked up and smiled at him. "Felix, long time no see."

Regardless of the negative press about her, Wendy was always a queen in Felix's heart. People didn't understand her and had no idea how excellent and beautiful she was.

Felix nodded. "Long time no see."

Presley, however, asked, "Wendy, how's the Alonso family doing?"

This question made Felix involuntarily look at Wendy.

"No worries, Grandpa Presley. The projects my father is handling will continue. We're planning to ask for my aunt's help."

Presley pursed his lips. His speculation was indeed correct. How could the Alonso family possibly collapse?

After spending some time with Presley, Wendy and Felix left his room together.

"Are you doing okay?" It took Felix a while to muster up the courage to ask this.

Wendy gave a bitter smile. "Can't really say I'm doing great."

"Don't believe those comments on the internet. They're manipulated by someone. Those who blindly follow are the foolish ones." Felix comforted her.
