Chapter 1373
The atmosphere in the conference room was a bit awkward, but Robin casually asked at this
moment, “Are all the shareholders here yet? If so, we should start the meeting.”
It already past the scheduled time, and if Damon did this, wouldn’t Robin’s chances of winning be
even greater?
A shareholder whispered to him, “A few are still missing.”
“This is the Harper Group’s board meeting, who allowed you to join?!” Presley shouted angrily,
interrupting the shareholder’s words, silencing the whole conference
room.
Everyone looked up and saw Presley ring at Chloe next to Damon, his face ashen.
Wendy smirked. Yeah, how could Chloe have any good days as long as Presley was in the Harper
family?
Damon’s calm expression turned serious as soon as he heard Presley’s words.
“I allowed her to join! Did you not see, or are you deliberately picking a fight?!” Damon said. His
voice was low and chilling.
The atmosphere in the whole conference room seemed to freeze, and for a moment, everyone held
their breath. Even Chloe, who was sitting next to him, thought his words were a bit too much. She
gently tugged at his sleeve, and her hand was quickly held in arge, warm palm.
Everyone saw them, and although they knew the couple was close, this subtle action still surprised
them. Before this, no one had ever thought that their President Harper would have any rtionship
with a woman, let alone this intimate
Wendy’s heart felt like it was being squeezed, the pressure almost suffocating her. She was
struggling to breathe, in unbearable difort, but couldn’t pinpoint the pain. Her eyes on Chloe
were full of malice.
Presley stared at Damon in disbelief, shaking with anger, but his eyes were strangely red, “You…
Damon…you…”
Damon’s lips were a thin line, “Grandpa, don’t be angry. Take care of your health.”
Wendy managed to suppress her anger, stepped forward to pat Presley’s back lightly, and
whispered soothingly.
Presley took a deep breath to calm himself, pointed at Damon, still angry, “Do you know where you
are now? This is the Harper Group’s board meeting. Even if you have a good rtionship with her,
what qualifications does she have to join? Damon, I think you’repletely blinded by this woman
now!”
Alyssa frowned and immediately retorted, “What’s wrong with that? Being seduced by women is
perfectly fine! I’d rather he be attracted to women than be single for life!
The people in the conference room were silent for a moment, then broke out inughter. Chloe
couldn’t help but cover her face with her hand, feeling very embarrassed.
Presley was momentarily speechless, so Alyssa continued, “Damon being seduced by a woman is
normal; you’re at this age, and still being seduced by women, you should be the one feeling
ashamed. What right do you have to judge others?!”
Presley red at her, “You““””
“Damon at least might give me a great–grandchild, and you?” Alyssa sneered at Wendy, who
looked terrible, “What can you give me? You’re already so old, are you going to give me a son?!”
The chairman’s wife, indeed lived up to her reputation! When she got angry, she didn’t even spare
her own husband!
“Ha–ha, grandma,e on, this is the board meeting.” Damon said.
In such a formal setting, his previously cold expression was ruined by his grandmother! So
unprofessional!
The other shareholders who were trying to hold back theirughter alsoughed out loud at
Alyssa’s words, their shaking shoulders looking hrious.
Presley, who was sitting in the main seat, was now red–faced. He had lived so long, and never
thought he would get so mortified in front of all thepany’s shareholders. “What are you
laughing at?!” He said with a stern face, and the conference room fell silent.
“This is the board meeting, not a ce for you to mess around! Irrelevant people, leave
immediately!” He said, his eyes already falling on Chloe.
“Did you hear that? Wendy, your ‘grandpa‘ wants you to leave the conference room!” Alyssa said.
Wendy, who had been standing in ce watching Chloe, suddenly heard this and looked
indescribable. “Grandma, It’s not what you think between me and grandpa. I respect him very
much.”

Wendy was very ufortable, putting her and Presley together, wasn’t this deliberately
annoying?
“Yes, Alyssa, you’re pushing the joke too far, how can you say such things casually, aren’t you
asking for trouble?”
“We all know that Ms. Alonso is interested in our President Harper. How could she have an affair
with Presley?”
“Alyssa, better hold your tongue, we still have opportunities to cooperate with the Alonso family’in
the future. Don’t offend them!”
Several shareholders began to persuade Alyssa; they were all a bit wary of the power of the Alonso
family.
Presley also didn’t n to squabble with his wife in such a situation, and said in a deep voice, “The
Alonso family and the Harper family have been thick as thieves and they’re gonna be family soon.
Wendy, of course, has every right to be on the board meeting! I don’t wanna say it again! Some
smarty–pants here, don’t y dumb now! Get out! Or don’t say I didn’t warn ya!”
Damon tightly held Chloe’s hand, his tall figure suddenly standing up from the chair, his face cold as
he pulled Chloe up with him!
“So…” Damon was about to speak.
“Bang!”
Damon was interrupted when a loud door–opening sound came from the entrance. The conference
room door was forcefully pushed open! Everyone turned to look at the door, a woman in a
wheelchair with icy eyes staring straight at Presley.
Seeing his angry face, the corner of the woman’s mouth curled into a cold sneer, “So, Mr.
Chairman, who’re you nning to get tough with?”
