Chapter 1545
She pointed at the computer screen, laughing.
“I can’t believe it, Damon’s actually lost his marbles over a woman. He rashly withdrew the attack on Chloe to
protect her. Didn’t he think that this would only piss off those haters even more? This femme fatale must’ve
completely bewitched him! Oh no, that’s too much of a compliment for her if she really was, why did she fail to hold
onto her fiancé in the first place? A woman nobody else wanted, yet Damon treats her like a treasure. He’s gone
mad!”
Seeing Wendy’s crazed state, Cole frowned. He said, “How could he be so thoughtless? Don’t count your chickens
before they hatch!”
Wendy scoffed, “Just look, after the comments were withdrawn, the online attacks on her are even more vicious.”
She was right, the comments on Chloe had become even more fierce.c2
“Feeling guilty, is she? She has the nerve to do it, but not the courage to take the criticism?”
“Can she only handle flattery and not criticism?”
“I suddenly feel like it was so stupid of me to defend her online before. She only allows us to argue for her but
doesn’t allow others to criticize her!” “She forced an elderly man to ruin his own reputation by testifying in court for
her, she must be feeling guilty”
“A problem that could’ve been solved with some money, and now she’s pushed two elderly people to this point, is
she happy now?”

“I used to idolize her, but now, looking back, I feel so stupid for sticking up for her. Thinking about everything she’s
done, it all feels so ruthless! She never leaves any room for others, it’s so cruel…”
Cole merely glanced at the flood of similar comments, although the content varied slightly. Of course, there were
also some netizens who consistently defended Chloe, but they were fewer in number.
His brows furrowed, he was doubtful about Damon’s action. Did Chloe bewitch him so that he couldn’t bear to see
her suffer a bit? So, he acted without thinking about the consequences? Because of that woman, he had hurt
Wendy to this point, so it wasn’t impossible for him to act this
way
He shook his head slightly and sighed softly. It’s such a waste of good talent.
He said, “The business banquet is tomorrow night. I will personally go to Harper’s Mansion tonight to invite Presley
and Robin. If you’re done with your things, go home now.”
Hearing about the Harper family, the smile on Wendy’s face disappeared. She said, “Grandpa Presley has officially
retired now. He probably wont
attend.
Cole responded emotionlessly with a cold hum, “His grandson made you into what you are now, and we haven’t
even gotten an explanation from him. The last time I asked for his help with Alonso Corporation, I got nothing.
Today, I’m inviting him to a banquet, so he shouldn’t refuse
Wendy nodded “If the head of the Harper family. Presley, shows up, those hesitant investors will definitely trust us.
No matter what the recent gossip says he’s still the leader of the Harper family”
“Right if we’re really going to hold a business banquet, we need to make full use of its effect.” Cole added. His gaze
returned to the computer screen in front of Wendy, a hint of confusion in his eyes.
Why did he always feel that Damon’s behavior was too irrational? Was he really so foolishly infatuated with a
woman? But he quickly put this question out of his mind. At most, it was about protecting a woman. No matter how
big the issue was, it wouldn’t have serious consequences.
He didn’t need to bother with such trifles.
That night, at Harper’s Mansion
Presley had been in a foul mood ever since Damon’s withdrawal of the negative comments about Chloe. Even
though Damon had announced his departure from the Harper Group, he was still his grandson at the end of the day
The rash decision he made, being so influenced by a wornan, completely went against his teachings What he
feared most was happening
He initially didn’t want to bring up the topic, but Cole seemed to be deliberately provoking him As they sat in the
living room watching TV, the news about Chloe and Carolina’s lawsuit appeared Cole shook his head and sighed.
The developments in this matter are really unexpected. Ms Chloe is so ruthless. But since she had the courage to
make that decision, she shouldn’t be afraid of others opinions, right? Damon care about her too much, making such
a rash decision Didn’t he think the consequences would be even worse when he withdrew the comments?
After he finished, he sighed again. “Damon was the only promising kid I’ve seen in years, who would have thought
he would be so bewitched by

Presley’s face grew even darker, and the dinner he had just eaten seemed to be stuck in his stomach, unable to
digest
However, Robin, upon hearing this, narrowed his eyes slightly, a sparkle flashed in his eyes, and a hint of a smile
appeared at the corner of his mouth, but it quickly returned to normal
Seeing Presley’s dark expression, Cole felt somewhat relieved, he placed two invitations on the table. He said,
“Alonso Corporation is hosting a business banquet tomorrow night. I believe you’re well aware of the purpose of this
banquet, and i hope you can attend.”
Robin glanced at the invitation, a touch of sarcasm flashed in his eyes. He asked, “I heard you’re trying to get your
eldest daughter to manage the company?”
Cole paused for a moment. “…I just want her to gradually familiarize herself with the business in the company. After
all, the project at hand is very important, I can’t retire at this critical moment. Wendy still has a lot to learn, so I
hope you can help her when needed.”
Robin just chuckled nonchalantly. “Well, of course.”
Presley hadn’t spoken a word the entire time. It was obvious Cole was intentionally making him feel uncomfortable.
He wasn’t oblivious to it. The two invitations were just lying there. Cole didn’t even bother asking him, he didn’t
even get a chance to refuse
Was Cole exploiting his guilt over what Damon had done to Wendy, acting so brazenly without any second thoughts?
But the thing was, with what Damon did to Wendy, turning a healthy girl into such a state, the Harper family would
always been in debt to the Alonso family. Cole had hit the nail on the head, exploiting his vulnerability. Because of
the guilt he had in his heart, he had no choice but to attend.
