Chapter 1241
Chloe’s eyes narrowed instantly, tuming to Stanley. “Why can’t hee back? Do you know
why?!”
T
If you go today, you’ll only end up being theughingstock! An engagement party without the
groom. Chloe, if I were you, I wouldn’t want to be the butt of everyone’s jokes!”
Stanley’s demeanor and tone were more serious than ever, as if he was not his usual self. But
Chloe knew, this was him.
“Stanley, if I find out that you had a hand in his sudden departure, I will never forgive you.”
Stanley’s hand holding the gun tightened slightly, and Ned at his side quickly said, “Chloe, no
matter what, Stanley is right. Mr. Harper is in Country B now, and he might not be able to make it
back today. It might be better to cancel the engagement party for now. We can discuss it again
when Mr. Harperes back.”
Elizabeth and others were getting anxious hearing this. “Can’t hee back today? What the hell is
he doing in Country B at a time like this?! Chloe, why don’t we just cancel today, no… postpone the
wedding to tomorrow or the day after, okay?”
Chloe remained silent for a long time, her gaze fixed on Stanley. “There’s a chance he may not be
able to make it back, but there’s also a chance he can. Both possibilities exist, and besides, Damon
said he would be back, and I promised him I would wait.”
Stanley’s face was tense, more terrifying than any time he had been angry. In the early winter, the
cold wind was blowing, and he was now sweating coldly. When the wind blew, he got goosebumps.
She was basically rejecting Stanley’s suggestion
Stanley didn’t want her to go, not only for his own reasons, but also because he didn’t want to see
her in that kind of embarrassing situation. Being watched andughed at by everyone.
Her sess had made so many people secretly envy and jealous, right? Those people must’ve
been waiting for her to make a fool of herself!
In the end, Stanley’s good intentions were all rejected by her. All her words showed that she
unconditionally trusted another man and had no respect for his suggestions.
Ned thought Stanley would explode with anger the next second, and start shooting everyone
indiscriminately, friend or foe. But all he heard was Stanley’s unusually calm voice. “I’m just looking
out for you. Let’s dy it, make it tomorrow or the day after, y it safe.”
Hearing such calm words, Ned was shocked. Even though he knew that Stanley’s maximum
patience in his life was all spent on Chloe, seeing this, he had to admit that Chloe had once again
pushed Stanley’s patience to the limit.
Chloe looked at him quietly, and after a long while, she slowly said, “If we dy… will you try to get
me to leave?”
Ned was taken aback. “Chloe!”
His voice was filled with obvious anger. She had always fully trusted Damon, but now, she suddenly
began to question Stanley? Stanley had patiently exined everything, and after so many years
with Stanley, why was she so cold and ruthless towards Stanley?
Stanley looked at her, and his thin lips curled up slightly. “I will.”
Ned was speechless. Perhaps, Chloe was the person in the world who understood Stanley’s temper
the best. The words she just said were not questioning, but they could’ve also been words of trust.
She had anticipated some of Stanley’s intentions.
“Right. So I can’t keep dying.”
Stanley’s deep eyes sparkled slightly, calmly looking at Chloe. His tone was in but carried a
detached smile. “So why do you think, if you hold the engagement party today, I have to sit back
and do nothing?”
Chloe’s eyebrows furrowed.
“Stanley…”
“Some people won’t give up until thest moment.” Stanley said this with an emotionless face, and
then put the gun in his hand into his pocket.
He turned around and left, with a group of people following him, asionally looking back at Chloe.
Once they got in the car, Ned asked, “Are we really just going to let it be?”
Stanley crossed his legs, looking at Chloe who was still standing at the door through the car
window, his expression gloomy. “Can you control her?” Ned shook his head. “Once Chloe makes a
decision, basically no one can change it!
“Well, if she wants to cry, let her cry her heart out. Maybe she’s been having it too easytely and
needs to face some setbacks. Let’s go!”
“Okay!”
N?velDrama.Org owns this.
Ned replied, started the engine, and the car slowly left the house.
Only when the car hadpletely disappeared from sight did Chloe rx, but her hand was
trembling slightly. It was rare to see Stanley so calm andposed. Because of this, her sense of
unease intensified.
Stanley was usually unpredictable, but his men were scattered all over the world, involved in both
legitimate and illegitimate activities.
Why was he able to be the leader of this organization? Because he had his own strengths.
Especially his intelligence, which was beyond doubt. Besides his usual smartness, his memory was
also enviable.
Everything depended on whether he wanted to remember something or not. Not whether he could
remember it. He had a super brain. But supposedly, his grades in school were very poor. Zero in
every subject.
So you see, he was a person you just couldn’t fully understand. Perhaps her understanding of him
was really because her brain was a little bit smarter than others, Once he got serious, most of the
things he predicted didn’t deviate from what he expected. His predictions could be divided into two
types. One was the result of natural development. The other was the result of human intervention.
As long as it was within his prediction, it was correct
If Damon didn’t show up, it might’ve been because he was really dyed by something. The other
possibility was that Stanley had prevented him from showing up on time at the engagement party.
Stanley, if he dared to do this, she would never forgive him! Never!
Stanley in the car suddenly squinted his eyes, put his hand on his forehead, and pinched it slightly.
“Are you okay?”
“Yeah.”
“That car ahead, it looks like it’s from the Alonso family.”
