Chapter 1174
From both an emotional and rational standpoint, Wendy should stay with the Harper family. In fact,
to be fair, Presley’s viewpoint might’ve been correct.
But every coin had two sides, If everything in the world could be fair and impartial, things probably
wouldn’t be soplicated.
Granny hit the nail on the head, how could Chloe ept to live under the same roof with the woman
who had ns to take her husband?
What the heck was this?
Watching the three cars gradually disappear at the gate, Wendy felt like a deted balloon. She had
put in so much work, and now, everything was for nothing.
She had be aughingstock, and now, it seemed like she was the ck sheep in the family,
except for Presley.
Alyssa’s words didn’t leave her any dignity. She was injured and was used of ckmailing the
Harper family? That was a p in the face, was she really that bad?
She was actually looked down upon like this.
She took a deep breath, suppressing the bitterness and resentment welling up in her heart, and
turned to Presley who stood behind her.
“Gramps… I think I should go. The house is in such a state. I’m really sorry, I never expected things
to turn out this way. I guess I just considered the Harper family as my own family…” Content rights by N?velDr//ama.Org.
Tears welled up in her eyes, her voice shaky. Addie felt a pang of sympathy. “Ms. Wendy, don’t be
upset. Presley doesn’t consider you an outsider, right? How will you manage on your own now?”
“Just stick around. Those who should and shouldn’t have left. If you leave now… Presley didn’t
finish his sentence, his face stern as he walked into the living room.

“Right, right, Ms. Wendy, just stay. If you also leave, this big house will be left with only Presley,
how pitiful!” “But…”
Wendy was in a pickle; she really didn’t want to stay here anymore. She came here just to get close
to Damon, now that he was gone, what was the point of staying here.
This big mansion, now left with only Presley… wouldn’t it be boring to live with him?
“Ms. Wendy, don’t make hasty decisions.” Addie suddenly said in a low voice, “Since you’re here,
just stay for a while. Make Presley happy, get along with the servants, and let them know you’re
good. You’re ady from the Alonso family, the future head of the Alonso family, with a good
reputation. When the word gets out, it will naturally catch Damon’s attention.”
Wendy paused, looking down at Addie, “Get along with the servants?”
Addie nodded, saying, “Yes, the wife of the Harper family is responsible for housework, you can
show how much better you arepared to Chloe. Nothing’s set in stone yet, how could you give
up? In life, once you miss a chance, it will really be gone! At least don’t leave any regrets, am I
right?”
Once it’s gone, it’s gone?
A spark lit in Wendy’s eyes. If she couldn’t be with Damon in this lifetime, who else could she be
with? If it wasn’t Damon, she might end up alone for the
rest of her life.
“Right, you’re still young, and the future is unknown. Giving up so easily, don’t you think you’ll regret
it?”
A voice came from the side. It was Robin who rushed over from the backyard.
Wendy looked somewhat ufortable.
Robin smiled and nodded, “Just stay for now. Whether or not Ms. Summers can be a part of
our family, is still up in the air.”
Wendy’s heart raced, “What does that mean?”
Robin smiled, “You’ll know in a few days.”
In a luxuriously decorated room in Y Country, a shrill voice of anger rang out.
“Failed again! Such a golden opportunity wasted again! Do you guys have the ability toplete
the mission at all?! It’s been so many years, and you can’t even kill one woman?!!”
What a joke! Just one woman’s life, and it’s been six whole years! In these six years, a thousand
people would have died!
“A few years ago when Yasmine had an ident, it caused quite a stir, we were afraid of attracting
attention, so we didn’t take any action. Then she mysteriously disappeared, so urately speaking,
it’s only been three years…
“Three years?! Do you think not being able to kill a woman in three years is something to be proud
of?!” The woman’s voice became shrill again, furious at the man’s words. “Ever since she suddenly
appeared in P City three years ago, there has always been someone protecting her in secret! How
many people have we lost as we tried to take her life?!”
The room fell into silence. After a while, the woman’s angry voice rang out again. “So what now?! I
can’t sleep peacefully until she’s dead!”
“I think you shouldn’t have acted in the first ce. If you hadn’t done anything, maybe they wouldn’t
havee looking for you! Now… if she knows someone wants her dead, she will start
investigating and will eventually trace it back here!”
“No, there’s no turning back now, you bettere up with a solution quickly and put an end to this
problem!”
Back at Greenfield Vige, Damon took Chloe to see the alpacas kept in the backyard. Seeing the
alpacas, Chloe burst intoughter.
“How did you manage to fatten them up so much?”
Their bellies, coupled with the fur, made them look like a fluffy ball.
“They are yours, so of course I would take the best care of them.” Damon said with a smile, pulling
her into his arms from behind. “From now on, we’ll live here, okay? No one will disturb you.”
Chloe held a leafy branch in her hand, teasing the alpacas, “I remember the first time I came here,
you said that this ce would eventually be my home. You’re really something, I didn’t have any
feelings for you back then. Couldn’t I be with someone else?”
Damon smiled faintly, “That just wouldn’t be possible.“,
“You were that confident?”
“I’m richer than others, and I know how to make money. I’m taller, and way more handsome. I’ve
never had any past rtionships, and I wouldn’t give other women the time of day. Why wouldn’t
you like me?”
Chloe smirked. “Is that how you see yourself? Talk about being full of yourself,”
“That’s the truth,” Damon replied quietly, “Plus… I won’t let anyone get near you. That way, I’m the
only one in your world. You don’t have any other options.” “There are plenty of choices. I just
wouldn’t choose anyone else.”
The grip Damon had on her tightened slightly, “Not even Stanley, right?”
