The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Chapter 1215

“I thought you said you didn’t think there was anything that wasn’t done right?”

Addie was left speechless, clasping her hands tightly, she meekly said, “I’m sorry…

Elizabeth waved her hand dismissively, “You don’t have to apologize. Because I’m not planning to accept it. Since

you messed up, you should take the punishment. I will dock a month’s pay from you and cancel your year–end

bonus. Remember your place. Even though you’ve been working for the Harper family, your status isn’t any higher

than anyone else’s.”

Addie immediately clenched her teeth, her expression full of anxiety and humiliation. “Mr. Presley……”

“All these trivial matters at home, I’ve always been the one handling them. Presley is getting old, and he has always

been good to you, can you bear to let him worry about these things?”

Just as Presley was about to say something, Elizabeth cut him off.

“Presley, these matters, I should have the right to decide, shouldn’t I?”

Presley tightly closed his lips, frowned, and glanced at Elizabeth. She was clearly threatening him. If he argued

back, she would definitely just shrug it off, turn around and leave.

This was all too common for her. She was never all talk. He snorted coldly, turning his head to the side. Compared

to Addie, he was even less willing to let this woman take his son away again.

Addie felt a chill in her heart; she was extremely angry. A month’s salary from the Harper family was no small sum,

not to mention the year–end bonus. Just because she said one sincere sentence and didn’t pour water for her in

time, she lost over five thousand dollars. It was heartbreaking.

Although Elizabeth’s actions seemed to target Addie, her words revealed her attitude towards Wendy. And what

made Grace even paler and filled with complex emotions was the last sentence spoken by Elizabeth.

That sentence was said to Addie, but only those who knew the inside story could tell that Elizabeth was talking to

her.

Elizabeth was comparing a servant to her? This directly infuriated Grace. However, she couldn’t get angry. She was

now part of the Alonso family. And if she angered Elizabeth, and Elizabeth made her affairs public, not only her, but

Wendy would be affected too.

Wendy was the daughter of the Alonso family, the future head of the Alonsos. Everything of the Alonso family was

theirs, and this couldn’t be changed under any circumstances. But because of Wendy’s current and future status,

she couldn’t bear this unanswerable insult. She was hit and she had to apologize to the person who hit her?

How could this be?

“Just now Addie also said something fair. Wendy is the one who is most seriously injured. You watched her grow up,

she was beaten like that….. “Because I’ve been watching her grow up, I think she is the one who should apologize

the most. If it wasn’t for her to whip someone first, others wouldn’t act so extremely. She is the initiator of this

conflict. She irrationally hit someone, and then expects others to silently bear the damage without retaliating?

Where is it written that the people of the Harper family are so easy to bully? Fortunately, Chloe immediately fought

back when she was hurt. If she didn’t retaliate, do you think the situation would quietly pass after Wendy whipped

her? If it really came to that point, how are you planning to explain to the Harper family?”

Grace’s face was pale, extremely angry. ‘Fortunately?‘ Chloe injuring Wendy, this was called fortunate?

“So, we’ll just let Wendy getting hit slide?”

Elizabeth laughed, “How could we just let it slide? Have her apologize to Chloe.”

Grace gritted her teeth. “Isn’t this a bit unfair?”

“Unfair?” Elizabeth scoffed, “She’s just apologizing, this is me making concessions because of the deep relationship

between our family. It was her who caused the trouble in the first place, and now she’s being treated by the Harper

family. We has done enough and fulfilled their responsibility towards the Alonso family. On the contrary, you’re here

bickering. What kind of response are you expecting from the Harper family?”

Grace was left speechless by Elizabeth’s words.

She thought she had always been in control. If Elizabeth could lower her posture and say a few reconciliatory

words, she wouldn’t persist in pursuing the matter. After all, the relationship between the two families was pretty

good, and as long as they showed enough respect for each other on the surface, it was enough. But when she

wanted to show a bit of tolerance, Elizabeth firmly grasped her and wouldn’t let go. This left her very troubled; she

didn’t know how to respond. “I’m not expecting any response, I just saw Wendy injured so badly, and I feel horrible I

also don’t want our two families to have a conflict because of this incident. Wendy was indeed wrong, but Chloe’s

actions were too extreme. Perhaps she was also wrong. Let the two of them apologize to each other, and we’ll let

this matter go. What do you think?”

Grace said, since Elizabeth insisted on her apologizing, she would compromise. After all, the relationship between

the Alonso family and the Harper family was the most important.

Elizabeth was silent for a while, as if seriously considering the proposal.

“Let’s settle it this way.” Presley suddenly spoke up, very satisfied with this outcome. As long as both parties realize

their mistakes and apologize to each other, this mess can be put to bed.

“Chloe!” He thought and then called out her name, “Once Wendy wakes up, you go and check on her in her room,

then we can put this all behind us.”

Chloe was silent for a moment, then she nodded softly, “Okay…”

“No way.” Just as Presley was about to breathe a sigh of relief, Damon from the side suddenly said coldly.

Chloe, standing next to him, stared at him in surprise. Damon frowned at her, his eyes filled with gloom and

warnings. It seemed like if she said one more would give her a severe punishment. But the reason she agreed was

because she wanted to… stir up trouble with Wendy

word, he

However, now, with Damon’s eyes so frightening, she decided to drop the idea. Since her husband was backing her

up, she’d just stand quietly behind him.

“What do you mean no way?! Stop stirring the pot.”

“We can’t just let this go.” Damon said coldly, completely ignoring Presley’s rage. “Since the Alonso family is

involved, we might as well send Wendy away with

them.”

The expression on Grace’s face finally gave away, and she suddenly stood up from the couch. “Damon… Wendy

grew up with you, can’t you accept her at all?”

“Right, I can’t accept her.”
