    Chapter 1332


    She went downstairs to open the door, and there stood Nate, who she had just seen earlier today.

    Chloe’s eyes were still a bit swollen, and the faint redness around them stood out on her face. The


    first sight of Chloe made Nate’s heart skip a beat.


    One thought yed over and over in his head – She’d been crying, she’d been crying, she’d been


    crying.


    Who on earth had made her so upset?! And he’d seen it. This was definitely something he needed


    to tell Mr. Harper about.


    Then Mr. Harper would be pissed, and he’d be the one who’d get screwed!


    So, she’d been crying, and he was the one who would bear the consequences. Nate sent a silent


    prayer to the heavens but put on a smile and said, “Mrs. Harper, good day”


    Chloe nodded. “Nate, what’s up?”


    Nate immediately stepped aside to let someone in from outside. “He’s the chef Mr. Harper asked me


    to bring from the restaurant. He’ll be preparing your lunch today.


    “Ms. Summers……Mrs. Harper, hi there.” The chef was a plump man who didn’t seem too old. On


    seeing Chloe, he nervously greeted her.


    He still wasn’t quite used to addressing her. He hadn’t quite caught on to Nate’s way of addressing


    her. He knew about Ms. Summers from Starlight International and had heard about her engagement


    ceremony with Damon.


    But hadn’t they just had their engagement party? How did Ms. Summers be “Mrs. Harper“?


    Then he thought about it and realized she was about to be Mrs. Harper, so even though they


    were just engaged, it wasn’t inappropriate to address her as Mrs. Harper.


    “…Hi.” It took Chloe a while to respond. Nate noticed something was off about her tone and


    immediately felt a twitch in his eyelid.


    She had cried! Mrs. Harper had actually cried.


    His gaze immediately turned to the chef beside him. What the hell had this chubby chef done to


    make Mrs. Harper cry?!


    The chubby chef shuddered in fear, and his face was a mix of innocence and panic. Had he done


    something wrong?


    Damon’s thoughtful arrangement had touched her deeply, but she quickly realized herpse and


    turned around to sniffle quietly.


    At that moment, her phone in her pocket vibrated. She took it out and saw that it was a message


    from Seth.


    [Just finished my meeting, what’s up?]


    Chloe rubbed her nose and texted back – [Does yourpany need any new talents?]


    Seth – [Nope.]


    Chloe bit her lip lightly- [You sure about that? One can never have too many soldiers, right?]


    Seth – [I don’t need talents from Infinity Media.]


    Chloe frowned – [How’d you know?]


    Seth – [What do you think I do for a living?]


    Chloe – [You run an entertainmentpany.]


    Then she immediately texted back – [But what does that have to do with you knowing what I’m


    nning?]


    Seth – [Do you think you’re the only one with a brain?]


    Chloe was getting annoyed. Was she being provoked continuously today? Such a disrespectful


    attitude, had he and Cicelye to an agreement to treat her rudely?


    Chloe – [Mypany can’t amodate everyone, I’ll let you take some.]


    Seth – [I don’t want them.]


    Chloe clenched her phone – [Refuse my goodwill, then get ready for my punishment.]


    Seth – [I’m waiting.]


    Chloe could feel his tant disdain.


    From behind, she could hear Nate and the chef whispering, “You’re some piece of work, making


    Mrs. Harper cry just after meeting her.”


    “Nate, I really didn’t do anything. You saw everything, didn’t you?”


    “I’m definitely telling Mr. Harper about this.”


    “Nate, I really don’t know what’s going on.”


    Nate sighed softly, patting the chubby chef’s shoulder. “Don’t worry. I’m sure Mr. Harper will get to


    the bottom of this. Go make lunch now, maybe your cooking will cheer Mrs. Harper up.”


    “Okay, I’m on it!”


    The chubby chef, carrying two bags of ingredients, went into the kitchen. Chloe nced at Seth’s


    reply on her phone.


    “Nate…” she called out to Nate.


    She turned around, startling Nate so much he almost fell over. “Mrs. Harper…”


    Nate looked horrified; he had no clue what had happened in such a short time. Who could tell


    him why Mrs. Harper was crying so sadly? She used to be so strong!


    Could being pregnant really have such a big impact? Turning a strong woman into a fragile being?


    Chloe’s eyes were red and wet with tears, her pain so evident. A single word from the chubby chef


    couldn’t have possibly caused this.


    Chloe wiped her tears and said to Nate, “I’m fine. It has nothing to do with the chef or you, don’t


    worry.”


    Nate awkwardly nodded, watching as Chloe finished speaking and went upstairs alone.


    Seeing Chloe like this, how could Nate stay calm? She was pregnant now, and if a pregnant


    woman’s emotions weren’t taken care of, it could lead to irreversible consequences.


    This was, of course, very serious.


    Watching Chloe’s figure disappear up the staircase, he immediately took out his phone to call


    Damon.


    “What’s up?”


    Nate looked serious. “Mr. Harper, Mrs. Harper was crying a lot today. I don’t know why, but it


    seemed like someone had upset her.”


    Damon, who was currently sitting in his office, pen in hand, writing something, paused when he


    heard this. His voice immediately turned cold. “You don’t know why?”


    Everyone in the office immediately lowered their heads. They were worried about being implicated.


    Nate felt a chill. “Yes, we just came in and saw Mrs. Harper’s eyes were red, we don’t know what


    happened…”


    Damon’s face was all knotted up. “Who has she seen today?”


    “When we arrived, it seemed like Mrs. Harper was the only one in the apartment. She said she was


    fine, but I thought I should let you know. After all, she’s pregnant now, and her mood’s a big deal.”


    At that, Damon, dropped everything, grabbed his phone, and said, “I’m heading back right now.


    Keep an eye on her.”


    “Sure thing!”


    After hanging up, Nate felt a weight lift off his shoulders. He was chuffed, feeling like he did


    something super important. He felt his spine straighten up.


    He knew Mr. Harper was up to his neck in a coboration project with PrimeVision. As an assistant,


    he knew how much this project meant to the Harper Group, and to Mr. Harper himself.


    But he also knew one thing for sure-


    In Mr. Harper’s eyes, even if the world was going to hell in a handbasket, Mrs. Harper was first


    priority.


    And with her emotions going haywire, wasn’t this practically like the apocalypse? In that moment,


    Nate felt like he just saved the world.


    Damon bolted from the meeting, leaving a room full of puzzled faces.
