The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Chapter 1757

Kane wiped the grin off his face, and for once, got serious.

“Why can’t Presley just enjoy his retirement? Why does he have to poke his nose into everything? It’s 2023, not the

good old days when he was the king of the hill. How much longer does he think he can keep this up?”

There was a hint of disrespect in his words, a subtle suggestion that Presley wouldn’t be around much longer. But

that was a cold, hard fact.

Even if Presley could live to be a hundred, they were still younger than him. The world was their young people’s

oyster

Damon remained expressionless, and Chloe didn’t bat an eyelid. It was as if they didn’t understand the implications

of Presley’s words c2

Robin led Presley forward, the reporters circling them, eager for more news. As they neared the security

checkpoint, Presley stopped and glared at them

The reporters stood to one side, glancing from Damon’s group to Presley, waiting to see what sparks might fly

between the two generations

Out of courtesy, Kane greeted Presley “Greetings, sir

But Presley just grunted in response, not bothering to hide his displeasure

Kane raised an eyebrow, looking unfazed. He glanced at the reporters, cleared his throat, and sighed. “At this

moment. I feel inspired to recite a poem

His sudden shift to a more poetic tone caught everyone’s attention. Chloe grimaced. What was this clown up to

now?

Then Kane went on to recite a weird poem that had everyone present fall silent

Presley’s beard quivered with rage. He had lived a long life and he was not about to be insulted by a poem. This

brat was suggesting that he was old–fashioned, that he belonged to the past and he couldn’t keep up with them?

Despite Kane’s usual lack of seriousness, he had actually leamed to use poetry to insult Presley.

Presley glared at him. “Fine, I’ll watch and see what kind of storm you can stir up. His booming voice echoed

through the area. Kane smirked as Presley stormed

off

“Hey, sir, the VIP security check is this way. There’s no way forward there.”

Presley stopped in his tracks. He had been too angry to notice.

Kane chuckled, took a few strides, and started going through security.

Even private planes needed flight paths, and with the Global Economic Summit happening, security was tighter than

usual. They all had to go through security checks

Kane was the last one to go through Presley was too angry to do anything about it now

Once they had gone through security, they boarded the plane and waited for takeoff. Nathan was laughing so hard

he had to hold his stomach. His laughter filled the plane

“Damn, Kane you’re something else. Who decides to recite a poem out of the blue? Don’t disrespect literature like

that. It’s hilarious coming from you.”

Kane gritted his teeth. At least I can recite it. And I used it very appropriately today, didn’t I? What night do you

have to laugh at me?”

“Damn, you’re so smart, knowing how to recite a poem Should I tell our elementary school teacher? He’d probably

cry tears of joy

“No need Once the news gets out, he’ll see it.”

“Damn, I can’t take it anymore”

Chloe had been feeling a bit down, but seeing Kane and Nathan fooling around cheered her up. She watched them,

covering her mouth to keep from laughing out

loud

Damon seemed used to their antics. He turned to look at Chloe, completely focused on her. She looked so soft and

cute in her pink outfit. He had been finding her more and more endearing lately To others, she seemed cold and

aloof, a strong and fierce woman. But with him, she was soft and sweet.

She was understanding, smart, and not to mention soft and fragrant when he held her. The contrast was too great.

In his eyes. Chloe was the most adorable woman in the world. He didn’t even realize he was falling for her, that he

was smitten.

He also didn’t even notice that he was treating her like a baby

Babies were so cute, he wanted to give them everything they could ever want. That was how Damon felt about

Chloe now

Nathan and Kane were having a laugh in the middle of the plane, but when Nathan saw his brother’s lovesick

expression, he couldn’t help but grimace

This was too much It was clear that his brother Damon was completely bewitched by Chloe

No wonder their grandfather always said he was easily swayed by women Now it was obvious, wasn’t it?

What a change He used to be so restrained and out of touch with the real world Now everything was different -

People did change

Damon watched Chloe for a moment, then reached out and grabbed the strap hanging from her chest, giving it a

squeeze

“Eek-”

Chloe’s face froze She turned to see Damon staring at her bunny ear headband, a look of fascination on his face.

His expression didn’t change much, but his interest was clear

“You

Chloe felt a mix of anger and embarrassment, her face turning red

Damon was toying with it again, watching the little bunny bob up and down, a grin spreading wider across his face.

His mirth was only heightened by Chloe’s blushing cheeks, a sight that brought a unique charm to the scene

The other passengers on the plane turned at the sound, only to see Damon leaning sideways, much like a

mischievous schoolboy playing with

her to blush crimson.

1/3

The rest of the plane fell silent. Well, wasn’t that a sight for sore eyes.

Chloe unable to bear their stares any longer, reached up and pulled off her bunny–eared hat. Glancing at the bunny

face on the hat, a flicker of exasperation crossed her features before she stuffed it into Damon’s arms What was he

thinking, getting her something like that?

With his plaything gone, Damon let his gaze wander around the plane. The rest of the passengers quietly returned

to their seats.

But there was more going on than Damon realized Chloe, too, was oblivious to some things.

In the past, she would have caught on eventually But now, with Damon showering her with excessive affection,

some things had gradually changed.

She was no longer as aloof as she used to be. She’d learned not to care about certain things, not to bother about

certain things.

More importantly, she was now able to act without worrying too much, knowing that Damon would fill in any gaps

she might leave in fact, without her realizing it, she had become dependent on Damon

But Damon wanted more

Perhaps it was because of her pregnancy, or perhaps it was because of Damon’s unabashed pampering, but she

was now able to throw little tantrums without any

pressure

She knew some of this, but most of the time, she wasn’t aware.

All these changes were just moving them closer to what they both desired

Despite Damon’s teasing, his meticulous care for her on the journey had already dispelled any trace of her earlier

moodiness

They arrived in H City two hours later Chloe had taken a nap on the plane and was now fully refreshed With the

pleasant temperature in H City, she felt much lighter without her scarf and hat. Her bulky coat was replaced with a

caramel colored pea coat, making her face all the more recognizable

This, coupled with the fact that she was followed by a few extraordinarily attractive men, attracted a lot of attention

in a short time. As soon as they reached the exit, they were swarmed by the paparazzi

Facing the reporters, Chloe had returned to her usual aloof demeanor Protected by Damon, she walked forward

expressionlessly

The questions were repetitive, asking about her valuation of Starlight international, its future development

direction, and the online comments about Damon. They also asked about his feelings about attending the Global

Economic Summit as Chloe’s partner, after stepping down from the position of CEO of the Harper Group

All these questions fell on deaf ears

As for the men behind her. Kane, Noah, Seth, they all wore cold expressions deterring the reporters

In truth, the reporters were only looking for easy targets. They wouldn’t dare offend the likes of Noah, Seth, and the

others. They wouldn’t have dared to go after Damon so recklessly if he wasn’t now being kicked out by the Harper

family and having a bad rap on the internet

The driver was already waiting in the parking lot. They all got into the car safely and headed straight to the hotel.

Chloe was looking forward to trying the local delicacies of H City, but Damon didn’t let her go out. He had Nate

bring almost all the local specialties back to the hotel

Expectation was a beautiful thing, but the reality can be bitter Chloe couldn’t adapt to the local food at all. She, who

had never experienced moming sickness, was now hugging the toilet bowl retching violently

This was a windfall for Nathan and Kane, who were happily feasting on the spread of food, showing no care at all.

This led to Damon finally losing his patience, coldly evicting them and their feast from the room.

After more than an hour, Chloe finally felt a bit better. When she came out, Damon was standing by the window,

making a phone call with a cold expression

“Come over now, or forget about being a doctor. Forget about your hospital too.”

“She was vomiting severely Was it because the food in H City was unhygienic“”

After he finished speaking, he hung up and dialed Nate’s number “Where did you get that food? Shut them down,

all of them.”

Meanwhile, there was a knock on the door. Damon hung up the phone, turned to look at Chloe, pulled her to sit on

the couch, and went to open the door without giving her a chance to speak

Outside the door stood nearly a dozen doctors in white coats, all panting heavily

“She’s over there

The doctors came in one after another

The high–end suite they had booked was now crowded. Everyone stared at Chloe, who was sitting on the couch,

and didn’t know how to proceed. They had heard about the patient’s condition when they arrived

Patient Pregnant/woman

Symptoms Vomiting

How were they supposed to diagnose that? Most pregnant women experienced moming sickness What could they

do even if they diagnosed it?

“Ma’am, have you had any discomfort before?”

Chloe shook her head, ‘I don’t have any other issues All my prenatal check–ups have been perfectly healthy”

Damon’s face was cold. Is it food poisoning? Or was the restaurant unhygienic?”

The room door was still open, and Kane and Nathan were outside, feasting away at the table The doctors looked at

them, then pointed and said. “Sir, the food you’re talking about is what they’re eating right now, right?”

Damon turned to look, his face darkening

“If it’s that food, then it shouldn’t be food poisoning if it’s unhygienic, the reaction wouldn’t be this quick

“What caused her severe vomiting earlier then?”

The doctors stared at each other, holding Chloe’s medical reports in their hands. After a moment of hesitation, they

finally said, “It’s a normal reaction to pregnancy” 2/3

Damon fell silent

At this moment, Nathan walked in, munching on a piece of fish, and handed a banana to Chloe Then he said to

Damon Look at making At most, the food doesn’t suit Chloe’s taste She’s into sour and spicy foods now and the

food here is too sweet and greany if you knee this tum H City upside down in just a couple of days”

The doctors nodded. “Yes, yes, it’s just a matter of tarta
