Chapter 848
“Mr Harper”
Damon Harper paused, only truly registering when he heard her say “Mr Harper
“Wendy“”
The confusion and hesitation in Damon’s voice caused Wendy’s gaze to tighten slightly Did he not
recognize her?
Yes “But soon, she smiled politely, giving a sight nod
“When did you get back?” Damon asked calmly brushing stray has from Chloes shoulder
Wendy shifted slightly resting her right hand on her left wrist!
“I just got back today”
Chloe looked down, watching the trembling hands of the woman before her
Upon hearing this, Damon only gave a small nod. Then, looking at the silent woman in his arms, he
smirked slightly Gently, he moved Chloe in front of him. This is my fiancee, Chloe”
After a moment of silence in the banquet hallmotion broke out.
What? Fanc
1thought he was gay how does he suddenly have a fiancée?!”
Exactly marriage is a big deal. It shouldn’t be rushed. And I thought tuming him straight would be a
challenge, I was ready!”
Who didn’te here thinking they had a shot with him? I didn’t even get to show my cards and
someone else beat me bil!”
Wendy’s right hand lightened around her leh wrist as her gaze shifted to Chloe, nestled in Damon’s
amis.
Her eyes were filled with a myriad of emotions, conflicting, repressing, then surging again, before
settling into a light smile as she extended her hand towards Chloe. Hello, I’m Wendy Mr. Harper and
L… we grew up together.”
Chloe’s eyebrows twitched slightly as she looked at Wendy’s outstretched hand, a small smile
ying on her lips as she extended her own.
Hello, I’m Chloe. I’m Damon’s… fiancée”
Wendy’s eyebrows shot up, her grip on Chloe’s hand involuntarily tightened. Not many people
dared to address Damon by his first name growing up.
Whether Wendy was his friend or something else, now she was his fiancée.
Wendy looked at Chloe, a sense of alertness taking over her. She was a celebrity, so she’d seen it
all. She’d read about her in the news, thinking her sister Keirast so badly because she was too
naive, too foolish! Now it seemed, that wasn’t the case.
With just one sentence, she hadn’t ced herself in a weak position, but insteadnded a solid
blow on her.
Wendy couldn’t help but take another look at Chloe. The smile on Chloe’s face gave away nothing.
Then, she saw Chloe’nce down at their interlocked hands, smiling slightly once again.
Wendy suddenly loosened her grip, froze for a moment before breaking into a perfect smile.
I’m sorry.”
Chloe just smiled slightly before pulling her hand away coolly.
Next, Damon introduced Chloe as his fiancée to everyone in the hall.
Wow, Damon, you kept this a secret, when did you get a fiancée?
A guy appeared out of nowhere, waving his ss at them.
“When did you start being serious?” Damon replied, looking at him coldly
The man chuckled, the next moment, his charming eyes sparkled, “Wendy…
At this, Wendy approached, still looking fresh and natural she clinked sses with the ma
Fel, long time no see.”
“Long time no see.“Felix took a look at Wendy’s wless face, his frivolous altitude fading.
“Where’s Elsa? You came alone, didn’t bring your girlfriend?”
Felx paused slightly, then said, “She’s filming, didn’t have time toe back.”
1 see.“Wendy nodded calmly.
Everyone chatted for a bit, Chloe found out that Felix and Kane were acquaintances, but he was
sent abroad for further studies by his families midway through.
The Larkin family was originally a military family, with a top general among their ancestors. To this
day, aside from, Felix, everyone else in the family held a military rank. The Larkin family and the
Harper family were on good terms; no one knew when it started.
In this political unstable society, any family without political support couldn’tst.
The Harper family was no exception, they had a good rtionship with that general from the Larkin
family.
Despite the Larkin family not achieving much in recent years, their rtionship with the Harpers
remained, albeit casual, they had be good friends over time.
Wendy conversed with Felix and Damon about their families‘ long–standing friendship and
asional childhood anecdotes. Chloe stood quietly to the side, smiling gently.
The banquet didn’t end on a high note. Everyone came with the intention of bing inws with
the Harpers, only to be yed from the start. But this time, the Harper family owed them one.
In the Harper family’s main hall, Presley Harper sat in the main seal, looking stem andmanding.
There were two more from the Harper family present, Robin still with his eternal smile, while Percy
couldn’t quite hide his excitement, his face full of affability as he

looked at Chloe.
So you’re the numero uno in the fragrance world, huh? I know who you are. I thought winning the
championship was just the norm for you. That stunt you pulled at the award ceremony sure stirred
up quite the buzz.”
Chloe smirked slightly “I was just doing my best to defend my honor.”
“You re being too modest I’ve read a lot of rave reviews from financial experts about you recently.
They all sing your praises. It’s definitely not a fluke.”
Percy wasying it on thick with praises for Chloe, as if he was worried someone might voice their
dissatisfaction with her.
But Presleys face was getting darker by the second, “I disagree!”
His words fell like a heavy stone suffocating the atmosphere in the living room.
There were others in the room, the younger generation of the Harper family, Felix, along with
Phoebe and Wendy
Their expressions varied at the old man’s words. Only Wendy, stood there unfazed, radiating a
goddess–like aura.
Damon frowned, 1 didn’t ask for your opinion”
