The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Chapter 1713

With Yasmine around, Chloe seemed to fade into the background. And that perfectly facilitated Damon’s intention of taking her away

He had initially considered settling the score with her for being absent for two nights, but upon seeing her in a bad mood, he decided to let go of that.

Yeah, just like that. Simply because she was down. And that was a big deal.

“Why didn’t you tell me my mom was coming?”

Damon raised an eyebrow, “You weren’t home.” He had decided to let this issue slide, but she brought it up again. It seemed he was destined to deal with it after all?

His response was nonchalant, yet it carried an undertone of complaint.

Chloe cast him a side glance. “What about a phone call?“e2

Damon fell silent for a moment, “She informed me only after her flight had landed.”

Chloe paused, arching one of her delicate eyebrows at him. “So what’s the point of me going home?”

Damon didn’t know how to respond. This woman had a quick mind.

Damon promptly pinned Chloe onto the car seat, planting a series of hasty kisses on her before he murmured. “That’s the point.” Chloe’s lips were red tinted from his kisses. She looked at him with a hint of annoyance, but didn’t say anything.

Sensing her lack of enthusiasm, Damon’s brow furrowed slightly. He instructed Nate to drive them to the hotel.

Once they got out of the car, Chloe was as cool as a cucumber. She gave a faint smile to Nate, who had opened the car door for her, thanked him softly, and promptly headed towards the hotel entrance. Nate scratched his head, watching Chloe’s retreating figure with a puzzled expression.

Damon was obviously not pleased.

As the extremely loyal and versatile assistant, Nate kindly reminded. “Sir, with her mood lately… I heard that pregnant women are prone to depression.”

With a sudden “thud“. Nate was kicked from behind, stumbling a few steps forward and nearly falling flat on his face. When he looked back at Damon, the man’s face was as gloomy as if he was the devil himself.

Even though his reminder was well–intended, it was not always well–received. Nate stood up, silently retreating to the side.
