Chapter 1165
Chloe grabbed his arm tightly, not letting him have a chance to shoot.
And how could Wendy not know Chloe’s worries, a cold smile slipped onto her face. “What’s the rush? Are you
afraid I’m telling the truth?!”
Chloe clenched her lips shut, and after a long time, she looked at her coldly. “Isn’t it time for you to get lost?”
Just as she finished speaking, two bodyguards walked up to Wendy
“What are you doing?!”
The bodyguards lifted Wendy up directly, “Sorry, Ms. Alonso, we need to take you to the hospital for a check–up.”
“I can walk by myself! Let go of mel
“No, you can’t right now!”
Wendy was almost choked by a cough.
Presley watched Wendy being carried off forcefully and then coughed violently. “All of you, back to the house with
me!”
His gaze swept over Damon, Chloe, and Stanley, and then he left in a huff.
As everyone left, Rhys, who was the last to stay, couldn’t help but shake his head in admiration while watching their
retreating figures. His eyes were filled with excitement and fervor “This Ms. Chloe is really amazing! Ms. Wendy I
want to know, what’s the relationship between her and Damon?”
Robin’s expression darkened slightly. Upon hearing Rhys‘ words, he turned his head and gave a faint smile, saying,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Nothing special.”
Rhys‘ eyes lit up again, “Then which family’s daughter is she?!”
Robin regained his usual smile and looked at Rhys, saying, “What does Mr. Rhys plan to do?”
“I like her! I want to marry her! I want her to be my wife!”
Robin chuckled, his voice growing somber, “Considering her background, becoming your wife would be a step up
for her.”
Rhys shook his head, looking at Robin disapprovingly, “No, no, no, she’s incredibly talented, absolutely wonderful;
she’s more than deserving of being my wife.”
The atmosphere in the Harper family’s living room was extremely tense.
Presley sat in the main seat, his expression cold and stern. He kept silent for a long time before turning his gaze to
Damon. “Did you find out who those people were today?” “Still investigating.”
Presley sneered, “Were those people after me?”
Damon kept his lips tightly closed, his face expressionless, and simply responded, “Still investigating.”
“What do you think?” Presley suddenly turned his gaze to Chloe, who was caught off guard at being singled out, yet
her expression remained calm.
“I’m not sure, they may have been after me.”
Presley chuckled twice, glancing at Damon, “You’re investigating? Investigating what? Who suddenly wants your
wife dead?”
Damon’s face instantly darkened. “We’re not sure they were after her.”
“The first bullet was clearly aimed at me. If the first shot was a coincidence, the following bursts of fire clearly had
no specific target. However, when she was standing in front of me, the previously aimless bullets almost all headed
in our direction. If they really wanted me dead, I wouldn’t be sitting here now!”
The living room fell silent for a moment, even though the situation was chaotic at the time, the Harper family
wasn’t completely off guard. But the details and the targeted bullets forced them to accept Presley’s words.
Because they agreed, they remained silent.
Chloe also completely agreed with Presley’s view. “But I don’t know who hates me so much that they want to kill
me.”
She can imagine people she had argued with in the past hating her to the extreme, but they didn’t have the energy
or money to hire a hit on her. Besides, after she did something hateful, she would naturally pay some attention to
those people’s actions and intentions. So she was very sure that if today’s hit was really aimed at her, it was
definitely not someone she had argued with before.
But who was it? She couldn’t figure it out.
“They aren’t fools. Since they secretly hired someone to kill you, how could they be so stupid as to reveal their
identity?”
Presley saw her struggling as the victim and couldn’t help but give her a not quite a rebuke. Then he turned his
gaze to Stanley, who had been sitting quietly by his side. “Stanley, do you have anything to say?”
Stanley frowned and impatiently replied from his spot on the couch, “I’m not a god, who am I supposed to ask?!”
Presley wasn’t surprised by his reaction, instead saying, “Right! She’s now part of my Harper family, so you should
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmkeep your nose out of her business!”
“She’s not part of the Harper family! She’s my woman!”
This statement somehow triggered Presley, and upon hearing those words, he immediately became furious. “Your
woman?! She’s my Harper family’s daughter–in–law! Do people from your family like to meddle in other people’s
love lives!”
“Meddle in sther’s love lives?! Oh my god!!” Stanley immediately jumped up from the couch, stomping his foot in
anger. “It’s you Harpers who love to meddle in other people’s love lives. When I met Chloe, Damon was probably
still gallivanting somewhere! He’s the one who came and meddled in our relationship, stealing my woman, and now
you’re playing the victim.”
“So knowing someone means you’re together? I know your grandfather too!”
“You, you’ve gone too far!”
Chloe, sitting next to Damon, watched the bickering duo in confusion, feeling a bit lost. She clung to Damon’s arm,
leaning against him, watching the scene unfold with a mix of amusement and disbelief.
“What’s all the fuss about?!”
A stern voice rang out, breaking up the commotion in the living room. Everyone turned to look, seeing Hannah
pushing Alyssa in from the entrance.
The speaker was Alyssa. She was all serious, eyebrows furrowed, her gaze darting sharply between Presley and
Stanley. Then, her gazes landed on Stanley’s face and she
