Chapter 1515
Chloe was taken aback by Carolina's sudden aggression, and her words were just laughable. Facing Carolina's emotional outburst, the smirk slowly faded from Chloe's face. Her face was as cold as ice, making the already chilly early winter seem even colder.
"I'll say it again. I won't give you a dime. Piss off."
It was as if her words were a bomb, hitting Carolina right in the heart.
Carolina was stunned for a moment, then her face turned livid with rage. "Fine, if you won't settle, then be prepared for punishment. Don't blame me for being harsh, Chloe. Get ready for a court summons. You won't give me money, then neither of us will have it easy.'b A court summons? Chloe paused for a moment, seemingly digesting this somewhat unfamiliar phrase.
The journalists were just as baffled. What was this old lady up to now?
Seeing Chloe's bewildered look, Carolina sneered triumphantly.
"You won't give me any money? Not a dime, those were your words, all these people can testify, you can't deny it. Failing to fulfill your obligations is against the law, you know? If you won't settle, then we'll see each other in court. It won't just be about 20 billion then."
Chloe looked as if she had just heard something utterly absurd, her expression slightly stunned. It took her a moment to blink a few times, "You're going to sue me?"
Carolina snorted, "I gave you two chances, but you're just too stubborn. If you wont settle, be prepared for punishment. You don't care about the loss, right? You'd rather lose than give me anything? Fine, let everyone see what happens to you, this cold, ungrateful granddaughter of mine."
Chloe felt that no one in the world could outdo her when it came to witnessing absurd and ridiculous things.
"You...’ She opened her mouth, just about to say something, when she suddenly burst into laughter. Carolina was going to sue her because she wouldn't give her the money?
Her life was truly incredible. Even she herself didn't know what mixed emotions her laughter contained. Was it anger? Not quite, she didn't feel that mad. Was it funny? Yet she felt a hint of sadness.
"Don't blame me for being heartless. I didn't want to take it this far either. If you agree to give me the money now, it's not too late, I'm not some cold-blooded person, if we make a big fuss, it will cost us both our dignity. But I have nothing now, you're different. You have so many businesses, and you can't afford to be so reckless."
Carolina paused and looked up at her, "I'll give you two minutes to think it over."
"Nate, throw her out of here for me. You have two seconds."
A familiar deep voice came from behind, and before Carolina could turn around, she was lifted up by two people. Without a word, they carried her down the steps.
"What are you doing, let me go!" Carolina had no idea what was happening, she didn't even know who was speaking, and she was lifted high in the air.
Because she was getting older, and coupled with the recent tumultuous events and the fact that she was being elevated so high, she felt dizzy and weak after shouting a few times.
Damon nodded, his smile deepening. "Really... I can have whatever I want?"
His tone and look made Chloe blush all of a sudden. The journalists stared dumbfounded at the scene, their attention completely drawn by the couple. Chloe's bashful look left them at a loss for words.
Was this the same “devil” that was rumored to make people's blood run cold? This can't be fake, can it?
Chloe bit her lip, avoiding his gaze, and looked at the crowd below the stairs, her blushing face instantly returned to its usual calm.
"Do you... have any other questions?"
The journalists nodded and shook their heads. It seemed like they did, and yet they didn't.
How could they not have any questions? But by the time they came to their senses, the two had already left together. They all regretfully moved their lips.
The online moral judgment of Chloe continued, and naturally, some people noticed that these were the actions of internet trolls. At first, they would argue and mock those who smeared others with despicable tactics. But in the end, seeing that the negative comments were still there, they stopped bothering with these people.
Some people just became more outrageous, the more tolerant you were of them, the more arrogant they became. The usual way to deal with these people was to give them a cold shoulder.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride
J’ai beaucoup aimé lire ce livre et j’aurais adoré connaître la fin. Merci beaucoup à l’auteur. Je sais que ce n’est pas parfait mais je suis consciente que c’est un livre que je lis gratuitement. Les publicités qui y sont présentées sont intéressantes et m’ont aidée à faire quelques achats. J’aimerais savoir quoi faire pour continuer la lecture de ce livre. D’avance merci....
Can't understand it, the translation is poor...
Lame translation....
did it really end this way. can I have the rest of the book ending??...
So, all of them were basically forced into sexual acts by their partners the first time, then their partners wanted to seclude them from everyone. On top of that, all of are jealous of their own children. The only couple that seem to have it good were Azriel & Phoebe. This book was honestly quite sickening & there’s no way anyone should find this romantic...
These typos are so annoying..can't even understand a single word...
Some chapters are missing and some of them are repeated..it feels like story takes a jump because of it...
I really like the book but there are a lot of typos which is making it even more difficult to read and stay engaged. Author please do some edits....
Best story ever...
I've been waiting for the wedding of Chloe and Damon until the ending of this novel their wedding doesn't happen at all!......
