The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Chapter 1397

Damon’s last three words hung in the air for a few seconds, and his expression took on a grave seriousness after he had spoken. Wendy’s crying stopped instantly. She stared wide–eyed at the man outside the cage, her face a mask of confusion.

She didn’t understand. Didn’t understand why Damon had brought her here.

Why had he come here…

“Nothing to say? If you don’t speak now, you might not get another chance.”

Damon leaned to the side, picked up a handgun from the table, and played around with it lightly in his hand.

Wendy’s heart flinched at the sight of the man in front of her, who was exuding a terrifying aura, and she began to cry again.

“Damon… I’ve been following you since we were kids. You’ve taught me a lot, always protected me, helped me, favored me. I’ll never forget…you were my childhood dream.

“My entire life has revolved around you. I worked hard to study, to become a proper lady of the Alonso family. Do you know how much courage it took for me to leave home and study abroad… But I still went, just so I could fight alongside you. Nobody loves you more than I do, Damon. You have no idea how much I’ve given for you.

“We’re childhood sweethearts, a perfect match, and everyone thinks we’re the ideal couple. I’ve worked hard for this, so why won’t you look at me? Why won’t you open your heart to me, and see how good I am?

“There’s no one in this world who loves you more than I do…”

It was clear that Wendy’s words were heartfelt.
