chapter 1740

Damon: “Enough

ith your jokes.”

tell

“So, if I don’t

any, you won’t be mad?”

Damon looked at her, sussing out her little scheme.

Was she threatening him with bad jokes?

Chuckling lightly, he suddenly got up, scooping her up in his arms.c2

Chloe gasped, “What are you doing?”

“Letting you know what’s truly toxic.”

Chloe shook her head, “No, no need. I already know. I don’t want to find out more.”

Damon smirked, “There’s something even more toxic.

Chloe paused, starting to struggle in his arms, “No, I don’t want it. If you’re going to play dirty, I’ll keep telling you bad jokes.”

Damon slightly swayed his tall figure.

He couldn’t even begin to imagine what the scene would look like.-

Her telling bad jokes while getting fucked?

This standoff seemed evenly matched, both stubborn and unyielding, b

ut it turned out that Chloe was slightly outmatched by Damon in certain ways.

She wanted to spurt out the bad jokes in her head, but Damon clearly wouldn’t give her the chance.

“If you get mad again, I won’t care anymote.”

Chloe weakly protested, annoyed at her defeat.

Damon smirked, “I can seek comfort myself.“.

Chloe stirred slightly, the sound of her discarded phone ringing in the background.

She moved again, Damon’s deep voice following after..

Realizing it was her phone ringing, she slowly crawled from beneath the covers, leaning on the headboard, watching Damon.

Damon handed her the phone.

“Hello?”

“Your Highness, your coronation dress and jewelry are ready. When would you like to come try them on? We can make adjustments if needed.”

Chloe brushed her hair, glancing outside.

It was still early.

“Alright, I’ll come soon.”

“Very well.”

Hanging up, Chloe placed her phone to the side, her hand resting on her slightly protruding belly.

After a while, she slipped out of bed.

By then, Damon had returned with her clothes.

‘T’ll take you.”

As soon as they reached the hotel lobby, people recognized her.

Their enthusiasm was a bit overwhelming.

“Princess, we’re looking forward to your coronation.”

“Congratulations on your safe return.”

“Evil won’t prevail for long. Ava got what she deserved.”

A frown creased Chloe’s forehead. These issues, that name, she didn’t want to hear any of it.

It was a mood killer.

Damon escorted Chloe into their car.

People outside the hotel were taking pictures, huddling together, whispering. But Chloe knew that it had to be about her, Ava and Barbara.

The dress was exquisite and luxurious, and to avoid any mishaps, it was delivered directly to the palace.

Queen Julia, Yasmine, William, and Brisa were all there.

After the recent events and learning about Chloe’s past, Brisa no longer held her previous reservations.

When Chloe arrived, she helped the designer dress her in the coronation gown.

“Thank you for everything. If it wasn’t for you, I fear I would’ve been under Ava’s control all my life, never finding peace.

Chloe extended her arms, as the designer and his assistant helped her into the dress.

“Don’t thank me. Helping you was never a selfless act. Your baby is innocent, and also of royalty blood. That’s part of why I’m doing this. But mostly, I’m doing it because you’re a thorn in Ava’s side. She’s using your unborn baby against me, and I can use your pregnancy against her. So, save your thanks.”

She had never been one to accept borrowed kindness, and the mere thought of it made her cringe.

Brisa smirked, “You don’t have to be so honest. Why make yourself out to be the bad guy?”

Chloe chuckled, “Being good is hard, you know. I might not go out of my way to hurt people, but that doesn’t mean I won’t. I hold grudges, I’m vindictive, and I can be ruthless. So it’s best not to cross me. If you piss me off, I will retaliate. Can a good person do that on a whim? No, a good person could do 99 good things, but the one wrong move they make, and it’s all for nothing. But a bad person is different. Even if they

ven if they do o one good thing, they might be remembered for a lifetime.”

She spoke in a light, casual tone, with a subtle smile on her face, b

ut something about it sent a chill down Brisa’s spine.

Chloe didn’t say anything more.

Her message was clear.

The royal palace, wealth, power and influence – they could change a person.

She couldn’t be sure that Brisa would remain just William’s wife in the palace.

There was an Ava before, and within the palace, there were many people with various ulterior motives. She needed to make her position clear. Brisad better toe the line, or Chloe wouldn’t let it slide.

A good person?

In this world, good people were just targets for manipulation, mockery, and stepping stones for others.
