Chapter 1405
When Damon arrived at the hospital, he found that the entrance where Yasmine was staying was
heavily guarded. He tried to go in but was stopped.
Facing the situation, Damon could pretty much guess who was pulling the strings behind the
scenes. Nate stepped forward first, telling the people guarding the door, "We''re just here to visit the
patient."
"Sorry, we can''t let you in without authorization."
"Let them in!"
Yasmine''s angry voice echoed from the room.
Damon''s eyebrows twitched, his mind full of confusion. Although he hadn''t spent much time with
Yasmine and didn''t know her very well, it was hard for him to imagine Yasmine speaking in such an
emotional tone.
The two people at the door nced at each other, but they finally opened the door.
There were more people other than Yasmine in the room. There was Bryson and an unexpected
person. Damon remembered this was the person who had taken Yasmine away right in front of him.
And for this, the person paid the price of a bullet.
Damon had long known that this person wouldn''t give up easily, but he didn''t expect Boyd, who was
supposed to be in B Country, to appear here after the unexpected event.
All Damon knew was that this man had been protecting Yasmine, even though she had been
completely ignoring him for many years.
Boyd sat on the sofa in the hospital room. His gaze was dark and gloomy as he looked at Damon,
as if wishing he could shoot Damon to pieces on the spot.
Damon chuckled, ignoring Boyd''s murderous intent, and turned his attention to Yasmine. Her head
was wrapped in white gauze and her arm was bandaged. Her face, simr to Chloe''s, was as cold
as ever.
"Are you really okay?" As soon as Damon arrived at the hospital, he asked the doctor, who told him
Yasmine was fine. But looking at her now, Damon began to doubt the doctor''s honesty.
Yasmine responded coldly, "Has Chloe left?"
Damon nodded.
There was silence in the room for a while before Damon spoke, "Who doesn''t want Chloe to attend
the state banquet?"
Yasmine''s face got even colder. "Damon, settle the problems with the Harper family! I entrusted
Chloe to you, and I trust you not to put her in danger! If she gets hurt because of you, even if I die,
I''ll make sure to drag the whole Harper family down with me!"
Damon''s face gradually cooled.
Yasmine''s mood could be described as extremely bad. Although she didn''t directly answer Damon''s
question, her words gave Damon a rough idea of the answer. His eyes became even darker. Any
man would feel something if he was used like this in person.
The men present knew Damon wasn''t in a good mood. Nate stood at the door, his palms sweating.
Boyd''s lips twitched in satisfaction as he watched Damon''s difort.
But in front of Yasmine, Damon showed no emotion and said, "I understand."
"I''m fine. If you''re okay, go look for your parents." Yasmine rolled her eyes at Damon again.

Damon left the hospital room with Nate cautiously following him.
"Where is Robin now?" Damon walked a dozen steps before finally stopping in the hallway, his
voice too low to describe.
Nate stood next to him.
Damon was angry. His eyes were filled with anger and determination, as if a ck me was
flickering in his eyes, ready to burn anyone who offended him to ashes.
"He just came to the hospital to apany Presley."
Damon didn''t respond, heading straight to Presley''s room.
Nate hurriedly followed, exining quickly and clearly, "Mr. Robin came to the hospital with Mr.
Alonso..."
Damon''s steps became bigger. Nate knew the situation seemed a bit out of control.
...
In Presley''s hospital room, Cole stood by the bed, his face serious. Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.
"The state banquet is in two days. I must take Wendy away today. Presley, please help me. Ask
Damon to let Wendy go..."
Presley remained silent, his breathing a bit heavy.
"Presley, we didn''t mean any harm in the beginning. Wendy just likes Damon too much. I believe
that Damon and Wendy being together is what we hope to see the most. But Damon now has his
own woman, and Wendy''s past actions have be a kind of insistence. In fact, Wendy has paid a
lot of prices. Perhaps the fate between our family just isn’t meant to be, but I still hope you can let
Wendy go considering our long-standing friendship. I promise we will never bother the Harper family
again..."
That''s when Robin spoke up, "Cole, the rtionship between the Harper family and the Alonso
family has always been good. Over the years, our friendship has been the deepest. Even if Damon
and Wendy can''t end up together, our friendship won''t change. It''s too serious to say it will change
because of the young people''s love..."
Cole gave a coldugh, seemingly helpless, but full of sarcasm. "Robin, we grew up together. I
know you mean no harm to the Alonso family. It''s good that we are friends, but my daughter Wendy
is still in Damon''s hands. I''ve tried everything I can to take her away these past few days but have
been turned away. Presley''s health is not good, and I wouldn''t disturb him if I didn''t have to!
"Look, us, the Alonso family, sure, we''re down in the dumps right now, but that doesn''t mean we''ll
stay bummed forever. What Damon did, well, it''s not exactly like he kicked us when we were down,
but it''s safe to say he rubbed salt in the wound, isn’t it? Is that how two families with a deep bond
should treat each other?"
Presley''s breathing became heavier. Cole''s words, to the ears of those present, were clearly turning
into a threat. Sure, the Alonso family was in a tough spot now, but there was always the chance of a
comeback, even a rise to new heights. When that happened, whether the Harper family still wanted
to keep a rtionship with the Alonso family, it wouldn’t be a piece of cake.
The smart move would be to let Wendy go now. Otherwise, years of a good rtionship would go
up in smoke in the blink of an eye.
Presley could definitely catch the hidden message in Cole''s words, but you had to admit, Cole really
hit Presley where it hurt. All Cole wanted now was to find a reliable ally for the Harper family in the
future.
No doubt, the Alonso family was that choice.
