Chapter 1577
Yet the old man’s words fell on deaf ears.
Watching Damon tenderly escort Chloe as they left, Presley’s body swayed violently for a few moments before
Robin finally supported him. “Dad, you’re not well. Don’t get worked up.”
Presley, leaning on Robin, kept his gaze fixed on the retreating couple, filled with deep sorrow and indignation.
“It’s absolutely unbelievable. For a woman, he dares to speak to me like this.”
Robin sighed helplessly. “You’ve known about this for some time now. Damon made his choice. Why get upset
now?“c2
Presley shook his head, “No! I won’t let this woman ruin Damon. I can’t forgive her. She’s too arrogant. Robin, keep
her in check, and take her down a peg”
Pointing at Chloe, his hand shaking uncontrollably. “Just because she got the Alonso family she’s she’s isn’t she
supposed to be filming a series? And designing clothes…”
“Just From
“Alright, I know what to do. Let’s go home. You need to rest.”
Robin interrupted Presley. There had been so much drama tonight. From the Alonso family matter to just now, it
was all too taxing for an old man, which was why Presley didn’t protest when they left.
After they left, the media present immediately erupted. They quickly took note of the old man’s words.
“After dealing with the Alonso family, is she directly declaring war on the Harper family now?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Ms. Summers is fearless, even daring to poke the Harper family.”
“She’s really angered them this time. The old man is talking about suppressing her.”
“But what about Mr. Harper? What will he do?”
When someone raised this question, another person scoffed, “What can he do? With the Harper family out of the
picture, he has to rely on Ms. Summers‘ businesses.”
“But didn’t he say he wouldn’t depend on her?”
“Who wouldn’t say things like that to maintain his image? He’s left the Harper family, and had a falling out with
Presley, what can he do alone? If not for Ms. Summers, who else can he rely on against the Harper family? Ms.
Summers just took over the Alonso family. In all of P City, who else has the power to challenge the Harper family? It
has to be the fearless Ms. Summers. At the end of the day, isn’t he just a man living off a woman?”
“Haha, birds of a feather, indeed. The one from Starlight International is cold and ruthless towards her family. She
just won a lawsuit refusing to pay alimony to her elders. Now, she doesn’t even think about visiting them in the
hospital. And it’s the same with Mr. Harper. He doesn’t even know whether his parents are alive or dead. He can
defend his woman, deal with Internet trolls, track down over twenty thousand netizens who insulted the lady of
Starlight International, but he doesn’t have time to search for his parents? Don’t even think about relying on that
heartless woman. It’s a pity Damon is so protective of her. I feel sorry for his parents.”
“Yeah, it’s been a while, hasn’t it? We haven’t heard any news about his parents. Are they alive or dead?”
“Need you ask? Their plane fell from several thousand feet in the air. When they found the wreckage, other than
the parachutes used by a few crew members, there was no sign of his parents having used any. You’d have to be a
god to survive that ”
“What a pity”
Everyone sighed
After a while, someone exclaimed, “Huh?” and asked, “We didn’t know about this. How do you know so much?”
The man who had been criticizing Damon paled slightly. “I have a relative who’s a reporter. He uncovered all this.
Since it’s about the Harper family, he dared not report it casually”
“see
No one paid it any mind, their gazes drifting towards the direction Chloe and Damon had left. They were nowhere
to be seen.
With Chloe and Damon gone, the atmosphere cooled down
For a while, everyone stayed silent, looking at each other, finding humor in the awkward silence it was as if Chloe
was the center of their universe The atmosphere grew tense and quiet for a while, until someone craned their neck
to look into the hotel.
“Hasn’t Ms. Alonso come out tonight? What’s happening at the business dinner?”
“She invited the woman from Starlight international just to annoy her Now we know she’s doing pretty well. What
about her?”
“She must be feeling pretty superior tonight. She probably secured a lot of investments”
The people speaking had been waiting outside all night. They had their reasons for wanting to see the outcome.
They knew Wendy invited Chice
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmto annoy her, and by common sense, Chloe would be annoyed tonight. But they wanted to see it for themselves,
hoping for an unexpected turn of
events
They heard something happening at the business dinner, but they weren’t sure what exactly took place.
Upon hearing someone mention Wendy, the crowd finally realized something.
“Yeah, why hasn’t Ms. Wendy come out yet? Most of the guests have already left, haven’t they?”
“And the Alonso family? Not a single one of them is here. Did they decide to stay at the hotel? That’s odd, after
such a triumphant evening. wouldn’t they want to show off a bit?”
“Wendy’s gone bonkers.” A journalist who’d been at the party declared abruptly.
Everyone looked at him. “What did you say?”
“Not long ago, the Alonso family’s shares dipped several times in the stock market. The person who seized the
opportunity to gather those loose shares was none other than Chloe Moreover, just a few days ago, someone
invested thirty billion into the Alonso family, essentially buying thirty percent of their shares. And guess what, those
shares have already been transferred to Chloe.”
The crowd collectively gasped, “Oh my goodness, so the Alonso family’s biggest shareholder is now…”
“That’s not all. Even Ms. Phoebe’s shares have been given to Chloe a while ago.”
“Oh my God.”
“That’s right. In other words, the largest shareholder of the Alonso family is now Chloe, and she owns more than
half of the family’s shares. In Chloe’s words – the Alonso family is in her hands now.”
