Chapter 851
Wendy s appearnce instantly brought a hint of guilt to Prey’s face
“Wendy. I have done you wrong Had you rush all the way back here and then put you through this”
Upon hearing this, Wendy fell silent for a few seconds. The way she lowend her head and
remained silent made her feelings of gnevance and frustration evident
Chieseyes picked up the white light in the living room, like a thinyer of frost
After just a few seconds, Wendy shook her head lightly
It’s okay Grandpa Damon has found someone he likes and I’m happy for him…”
She paused looked at Chloe who was not far away and gav small smile
1 hope you can truly make Damon happy But I gotta remind you, the Harper family isn’t some
ordinary family Even as a woman, you gotta have some extraordinary qualities…
She noticed Damon s slightly annoyed expression, but she still managed to smile, “Even though I
know Damon doesn’t like to hear this, and I may not be in a position to say this, but as a friend
who’s grown up with him, this is all I can do for Damon.. Presley patted Wendy’s hand on his
shoulder with a somewhat distressed look in his eyes Wendy’s smile was bitllet but what she
showed most was considerate.
“Since you re the one Damon likes, and you’re marrying into this family, you gotta be careful from
now on. If anything goes wrong, the Harper family will be the ones to bear the brunt. Damon likes
you so much, I believe you won’t let him down, right?” “Wendy“Damon’s deep voice sounded filled
with displeasure and warning.
Wendy responded with a calm smile, “Sorry Damon, I overstepped this time. Won’t happen again.”
Her magnanimity understanding, and consideration, made it clear to anyone that Wendy cared for
Damon, but now she was putting on this act. No amount ofpliments could fully express her
goodness.
The more Wendy spoke the more outstanding she appeared, making Chloe seem even mord ill
fitted.
“What” What s with that attitude? Is Wendy wrong?”
Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
Presley red as if he was ready to whack Damon with his walking stick if he said another word.
Chloe just managed to pull out a polite yet awkward smile.
It was about time, Wendy nced at the old clock in the corner of the living room and withdrew her
hand from Presley’s shoulder
Aright Grandpa Presley, it’s gettingte, you should get some rest.”
Everyone looked at the time and realized it was indeed time to leave.
One by one people started to leave. As Angie left, she gave Chloe an extra look, her emotions
running high..
When Felx was leaving, he asked Wendy. “Do you need me to take you home?”
Wendy shook her head with a smile, “No need, I’ve already called home, they’ll be here to pick me
up.”
Felix took onest look at Wendy’s beautiful face, his mind wandering for a moment before he left
with a hint of regret.
“Wendy don’t leave tonight stay where you used to stay.
Presley felt guilty towards Wendy today, and the more indifferent she was, the stronger his guilt
grow, He had always hoped that Wendy would be Damon’s future wife. Just as Damon had
never disappointed him, Wendy had never disappointed him either. Now, his own grandson had
disappointed him, but Wendy had not. She had spent over twenty years, but had not received the
result she deserved….
No need, the people picking me up should be here soon.”
Just as she finished speaking, a car ham sounded from the yard. Wendy smiled. “See, they’re
here…
Presley stood up, and Wendy quickly grabbed his arm and walked with him towards the vi’s
entrance.
Chloe watched the vague figures outside the door and smirked, a sarcastic smile ying on her
lips. She picked up the clothes on the sofa and followed the old man out of the vi.
In the pourtyard of the Harper family, several ck luxury cars were parked. Each car had several
serous, tall, ck–suited bodyguards standing in front of them. In total, there were over a dozen of
them, and when they saw Wendy, they all bowed to her. Their actions were uniform, and their
voices were in unison, creating an impressive scene.
On this chilly autumn night, the leader of the group draped a coat over Wendy, who casually
tightened the coat around her.
She tumed to Presley and said, “Grandpa you should go inside, it’s cold…
Before Wendy could finish, Presley felt warmth on his shoulder. He looked over and saw Chloe
standing next to him. She casually put the clothes in her hand ono Presley. Then she said with a
smile, “Since Ms. Alonso is so keen on you seeing her off, why not put on your coat and take your
time.”
Presley frowned at het but Chloe had already tumed her head. She looked at the luxury cars in the
yard, then slowlyughed.
Indeed, the youngdy of the Alonso family sure knows how to travel in style. I’ve leamed
something new today. Guess it’s going to be a bit difficult to invite Ms. Alonso out in the future.”
Wendy’s smile stiffened slightly. She stared at the people in the yard, her hand clenched into a fist
inside her coal
The people of the Harper family knew her well, and they were aware of her past circumstances.
Such a grand departure was are for her.
Everyone understood the implications of her actions today.
But once it was made public, the nature of the event would change. She just gotta let everyone
know, she was thedy of the Alonso family. Shed got the swanky family background, she was a
big deal herself, and she can bring a ton of perks to the Harper family And the others, how could
they possibly measure up to her? Especially this gal tonight named Chloe. Other than temporarily
winning Damon’s heart, what else did she have?
No family fortune, no connections, just anaive, foolish, and self–righteous ego.
She, Wendy bom into the Alonso family and the future head of the Alonso family, had more than
enough reason to hold herself high and look down on Chloe for a lifetime…
