The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Chapter 971

The maid scrambled away in a panic, tears streaming down her face.

Even Nate, who rushed in upon hearing the commotion, was rooted to the spot, stunned by Mr. Harper’s roar.

Even when a long-term project failed, what you got was a colder expression on his handsome face, as he calmly and steadily identified, addressed, and solved the issue.

Nate also knew that Ms. Chloe’s presence greatly influenced Mr. Harper’s mood swings. But now, it seemed he had underestimated the situation. In Mr. Harper’s mind, Ms. Chloe had now become a terrifying entity.

When this just happened, Nate was on pins and needles. He worried that Mr. Harper, torn between irresistible kinship and Ms. Chloe, would be trapped in a dilemma.
