Chapter 1395


    Winston''s face instantly went stiff, his eyelids twitching involuntarily. "Where''d you hide the rm?"


    Chloe, with a smile, said, "You could choose to wake up at 7:29 if you want." She rolled up the car


    window as she spoke.

    "Hey, Chloe…." Winston took a couple of quick steps forward.


    The car sped past him.


    Winston was speechless.


    Damn, this wicked woman!


    And she was like this even though she was pregnant!


    -


    Back at the apartment, Chloe freshened up, got into her pajamas, and sat down at the piano with


    her sheet music.


    I Believe...


    At the end of the sheet, there were a few lines -


    Like a dream, like a miracle.


    I hope when I dream of you.


    You''ll be there.


    I Believe.


    These words seemed simple. But often, the simplest things were the hardest to understand.


    Who was "you"?


    Chloe shook her head, took a deep breath, and skillfully yed a few notes.


    ...


    Ever since the board meeting, Damon hadn''t shown his face at thepany.


    The whole of the Harper Group was uneasy. They heard that Mr. Harper announced his resignation


    at the board meeting. Not to mention the next chairman, he even gave up his current position as


    CEO. This was something no one had expected.


    But some people thought it was only natural. Everyone in the Harper family was greedy for the vast


    Harper Group. If the power of the Board fell into someone else''s hands, who would still keep Mr.


    Harper''s executive power in thepany? His resignation now was much wiser than being forced


    to resignter.


    But the Harper Group was so huge, for Damon to say he''d given it up showed his resolve.


    Especially since he did it all for a woman.


    Without Damon, how could the Harper Group possibly continue to operate?


    Used to following Damon''smands, but suddenly without a leader, the atmosphere at the Harper


    Group was tense.


    Presley was in the hospital. From the moment he heard the news, he was holding his breath. But


    from the beginning, Damon''s sessive rebellions made him reluctant to take the initiative to


    discuss it. Damon never brought it up in front of him either.


    When a few of thepany''s minor directors came to visit him, they always subtly brought up the


    issue.


    A country couldn’t be without a king; a family couldn’t be without a master. Thepany had been


    moving forward ording to Damon''s pace for so many years that it had be a habit. Now that


    he suddenly resigned, it made people uneasy.


    So far, even though the grandfather and grandson saw each other almost every day, they never


    mentioned this.


    Percy from Hong Kong heard about Presley''s illness and rushed over with his family to be by


    Presley''s bedside and express their concern. He had heard long ago that Presley was dissatisfied


    with Chloe and firmly opposed her marrying into the Harper family. This made Percy very happy.


    If this woman really became a member of the Harper family, it would be their misfortune.


    Because of this woman, his son almost lost his life,ter suffered serious injuries, and most


    importantly, she wanted to upy most of the shares in his hands. All of these things added up,


    were enough to make him want to kill her.


    Now that she couldn’t be a member of the Harper family, it was truly a blessing from God.


    Also paying a visit after hearing the news was the Larkin family from Hong Kong.


    Although Damon once said he wanted to cut off all ties with the Larkin family, the two families had


    many years of friendship. Plus, the Larkin family didn''t want to give up the Harper family. They were


    friends in name, so Felix Larkin still came.


    He dide to see Presley, but the person he wanted to see more was Wendy. He had given


    Wendy a heads up beforeing, so when he came to visit Presley at the hospital today, Wendy


    came along.


    When Felix appeared at the hospital, Damon frowned.


    "Damon, I came to see Grandpa Presley." Felix''s demeanor was as if nothing had happened before.


    His goodwill was convincing, so Damon couldn''t refuse.


    As for whether Presley wanted to see him, he couldn''t decide that for him.


    Soon after, Wendy also arrived, with her sophisticated makeup, dressed in high-end international


    winter fashion, and her long hair styled elegantly. As she moved, her curly hair swayed behind her.


    She looked just like a wealthy heiress.


    When she saw Damon, her heart rate sped up. His tall figure, along with his emotionless, icy face,


    both fascinated and frightened her.


    "Damon..."


    Damon looked at her coolly. "If I were you, I wouldn''t dare to appear in my sight anymore."


    Wendy''s face instantly went pale. "Damon…"


    "Don''t call me," Damon said coldly, then turned to look at the ward behind him. "Aren''t you here to


    see Presley? Go ahead."


    Damon''s words were chilling, making Wendy very uneasy. With a nervous heart, she entered the


    ward. When Presley saw her, he suddenly felt annoyed. He had lived such a long life, and it was


    because of Wendy that he had almost lost his reputation.


    Time and again, he didn''t know how many people hadughed at him.


    "Grandpa Presley..." Wendy knew she had been having bad lucktely. Whether it was news


    reports orments online, Presley was mocked and ridiculed because of her, making her feel


    embarrassed too.


    "You''re here." Presley responded nonchntly.


    Felix was by the bedside. From the moment Wendy stepped through the door, his eyes were glued


    to her. His eager gaze was hard for Wendy to ignore. She looked up and smiled at him. "Felix, long


    time no see."


    Regardless of the negative press about her, Wendy was always a queen in Felix''s heart. People


    didn''t understand her and had no idea how excellent and beautiful she was.


    Felix nodded. "Long time no see."


    Presley, however, asked, "Wendy, how''s the Alonso family doing?"


    This question made Felix involuntarily look at Wendy.


    "No worries, Grandpa Presley. The projects my father is handling will continue. We''re nning to


    ask for my aunt''s help."


    Presley pursed his lips. His spection was indeed correct. How could the Alonso family possibly


    copse?


    After spending some time with Presley, Wendy and Felix left his room together.


    "Are you doing okay?" It took Felix a while to muster up the courage to ask this.


    Wendy gave a bitter smile. "Can''t really say I''m doing great."


    "Don''t believe thosements on the inte. They''re manipted by someone. Those who


    blindly follow are the foolish ones." Felixforted her.
