Chapter 1760


    Damon gently pecked her nose, his dark eyes quietly focused on her


    Chloe blinked her eyes lightly, her hands scaling his shoulders, pushing herself into his warm, broad


    chest, and fondly returning his kiss on his chin. ‘Sorry, I shouldn’t have spoken about him that way I


    know it’s disrespectful to our elders, but I thought it might cheer you up.”


    Despite the strangeness of this statement, it was clear that Damon was in high spirits, sensing


    Chloe’s obvious displeasure with Presley


    Because he was dissatisfied with Presley, and he felt she should join him in his discontent


    In this matter, from the beginning to the end. Damon didn’t have the right to be angry with Chloe c2


    Moreover, even if he was angry, he couldn’t do anything about it


    But some lingering emotions made him nibble on Chloe’s lips in a somewhat sullen manner, before


    he let her go and began to help her out of her pink cotton coat.


    Chloe obediently allowed him to attend to her. So much so that she ended up naked, carried into


    the bathroom.


    Lying in the bathtub, she gazed at her slightly protruding belly and tenderly stroked it. Then she


    looked up at Damon and asked calmly, “Didn’t you promise to get me a dress? The Global


    Economic Summit is tomorrow night Where’s my dress?”


    Damon’s big hand also rested on her stomach, gently caressing it, feeling the curve of her belly.


    Aer of his mouth lifted in a smirk.


    “You can wear a down jacket


    Chloe’s bored eyes suddenly blinked, looking at him in surprise A down jacket? Like the bulky one I


    wore today? I’ll be theughing stock of the Global Economic Summit dressed like that I don’t want


    to be a chubby bunny anymore.”


    Damon chuckled lightly, “You’re carrying my babies now. No one willugh at you”


    Chloe shook her head. “I don’t want to. This might be myst banquet for several months


    “But with your current belly, I don’t think there’s a suitable dress for you.”


    Chloe pursed her lips tightly, her brows furrowed, her face looking rather displeased. “I never


    thought you d break your promise”


    “Your health is important night now. Beauty can be put aside.”


    Chloe shot him a particrly resentful look


    “Hmm? Are you really that angry?”


    Damon was always curious about Chloe’s little temper tantrums during her pregnancy, so


    sometimes he couldn’t help but poke fun at her


    Sure enough she never disappointed him.


    After the bath, Chloe was carried out of the bathroom by Damon She stubbornly went through their


    suitcases for a while, but indeed didn’t find the dress Damon had promised her Finally, she crawled


    back into bed sullenly, pulling the nket over her.


    Seeing this, Damon couldn’t help but chuckle, both indulgent and helpless How could this woman


    be so adorable?


    He climbed into the bed, pulling her into his arms despite her sulking. “Still angry?”


    “I don’t want to talk to people who break their promises”


    “Heh” Damon chuckled softly.


    Her moodsted until the next day at noon


    This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.


    At this time, Nathan and Kane were trying to convince Chloe to go out for food, but Chloe remained


    silent and unresponsive.


    “Damon, what did you do to upset Chloe? Look at her, she’s on a hunger strike.”


    “I think you’re getting too cocky. Now that Chloe’s pregnant, do you think you’ve got nothing to


    fear?”


    Hearing both of them siding with her cheered Chloe up a lot.


    Damon sat there impassively, regardless of what they said, his temper was surprisingly good


    Kane and Nathan exchanged nces, feeling something was off. “Damon, you’re not really taking


    Chloe for granted, are you? It’s almost noon, aren’t you wormed Chloe will go hungry?


    Chloe looked at him, finding his reaction today strange. Was he really nning to let her starve?


    Just as the atmosphere was bing tense, the door to the room suddenly opened. Nathan


    quickly went to answer it. When he saw who was at the door, he was quite surprised “You What


    brings you here?”


    “Move it. Blocking the door is not polite


    That voice


    Chloe turned her head just in time to see Elizabeth walk in through the door She paused for a


    moment, then got up from the couch “What are you doing here?”


    Elizabeth quickly walked over to Chloe and gave her a big hug “We missed you


    Chloe didn’t say anything. They had just left a day ago Sorry, but she didn’t miss them


    Royce slowly walked over from behind, and Elizabeth took a bag from his hand and handed it to


    Chloe


    “Damon had asked me to make a dress for you. It was only finishedst night, so I rushed it over


    here to avoid any dy”


    Chloe was taken aback and took the bag, turning to give Damon a resentful look. He was just


    teasing her! Why was his behavior getting


    “I’m sorry you had to make a special trip”


    Elizabethughed, “No trouble at all, I haven’t been to H City in a long time. It’s a good opportunity


    for me to have a look around. Also, this is a makeup hit that Ro

    Ime to bring for you. She said all the cosmetics in it are new products, absolutely safe, even for


    pregnant women. She’s worried about the quality of other hakeup, so she asked you to use this


    Chloe raised an eyebrow and epted the makeup kit Inside was a full set of skincare products,


    facial cleanser, makeup remover, eyeshadow, blush, lipstick, and more Everything you could need


    Ensuring the absolute safety of skincare and makeup products had always been the top priority she


    had rmended to Spotlight Beauty. Rose had always agreed and adhered to it. Nowadays,


    there were manypeting skincare and makeup brands, and if you wanted to guarantee product


    quality and safety, you would definitely have to invest more than other products. This was not


    something that ordinarypanies can do for a long time


    But since Rose dared to let her use these things, it was enough to prove that she had never been


    negligent in this regard. With a policy of small profits and high sales, and winning with quality,


    Spotlight Beauty would surely seed


    She gave a light sigh and gently stroked the makeup kit. It seemed like she could still stand beside


    Damon tonight undistracted and at ease


    She didn’t need to be particrly beautiful, rather, she wanted to present her best self when she


    stood next to Damon. She didn’t want to be a w by his side, but


    instead, she wanted to be someone he could be proud of


    In every aspect, she wanted to excel


    “Alright, my task is done, shall we have lunch now?” Elizabeth pped her hands cheerfully. She


    had refrained from even eating an in–flight meal on the ne, just so she could enjoy a hearty meal


    here


    There was nothing a good meal couldn’t solve


    At this moment, Damon also rose from his seat, approached Chloe, and gently put his arm around


    her waist “Let’s go, I’ve reserved a table


    Chloe looked up at him, deeply moved. It turned out that he had already made arrangements


    With a loud cheer from Kane and Nathan, the group of people headed straight for their destination.


    By five in the evening, the makeup artist arranged by Damon was already waiting in the makeup


    room.


    At past six, with her makeup done, Chloe returned to her room to meet Damon and head to the


    Global Economic Summit together.


    At this moment, Damon, dressed in an expensive ck suit, was standing by the floor–to–ceiling


    window of the hotel, making a phone call. His low voice echoed


    calmly in the room


    The sky outside the window had already darkened, and the floor–to–ceiling window in front of


    Damon now seemed like arge mirror


    As Chloe approached from behind, holding the hem of her dress, he was still on the phone giving


    instructions, but his dark eyes were fixed on her figure, unblinking. When the slender figure got


    closer, he naturally ended the call, put down the phone, and then slowly turned around.


    His deep dark eyes fell directly onto her, and the slow smile that spread across his lips made Chloe


    inexplicably nervous.


    Chloe was now dressed in a red vintage chiffon embroidered dress. With a small stand cor


    featuring a detailed V design, her neck was half–hidden, half–visible. On either side of the cor


    were embroidered golden blossoms


    in front of her a colourful phoenix was surrounded by floral patterns, and the loose hem was ace


    imprint of a phoenix tail.


    Her slightly bulging belly was not deliberately covered, and the slight bump made her original


    slender waist more noticeable


    Her long hair was styled into delicate natural curls, and her brows and eyes were carefully drawn.


    The lipstick on her lips matched the colour of her gown.


    Today’s Chloe was probably the most morous she had ever been. With her crimson retro lipstick


    and a powerful aura, together with her dress, she looked like a zing fire that was constantly


    jumping and heating up. full of passion


    He had always said that she was a captivating woman. He had never lied. Even when she was


    pregnant, she was still so enticing


    Damon’s burning gaze made Chloe’s hand, which was holding her dress, tighten slightly. Her


    breathing and the rhythm of her heart in her chest were somewhat disrupted She stopped her steps


    not far from Damon, not daring to go any further


    However, Damon gradually approached her, finally standing in front of her, looking down at her. The


    flicker of fire in his eyes made Chloe bite her lip slightly. “Don’t look at me like that.”


    “Why?”


    Chloe’s eyes flickered, “It makes me ufortable.”


    “Uh–huh “Damon responded lightly. “You’re deliberately trying to seduce me. That’s why you feel


    ufortable.”


    Chloe didn’t say anything


    “Or maybe


    Damen wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her into his arms. He pointed to her heart and


    whispered. “You have other thoughts here.”


    Chloe’s face suddenly turned red


    Seeing this, Damonughed softly. “As I thought ”


    Chloe stepped back a bit. “Stop fooling around, We have to go to the summit soon


    Damon nodded, “We still have some time” As he spoke, hisrge hand had already moved from her


    waist


    Chloe’s body trembled slightly, looking at the fiery red shadow in his eyes, which seemed to be filled


    with her reflection, and seemed to be something else.


    Just looking into his eyes made her feel inexplicably weak. She turned her head away, ashamed to


    let the man see through her curent condition.


    “Instead of trying to hide yourself, why not be a little honest, huh?”


    Her chin was hooked back by the man, who was smiling at her


    Chipe knew that her thoughts had been seen through, and she was embarrassed. “Stop it.”


    Daman leaned close to her ear, “Mrs. Harper, you may have a natural talent for seducing me. I now


    want to


    His voice got lower and lower, but Chloe stopped his lips that were pressing down After a while, she


    whispered, “I just put on lipstick.”


    11:49


    Demon chuckled, his hand already exploring the zipper on her back. Chloe’s eyes fluttered, and she


    slowly wrapped her arms around Damon’s neck, leaning her body into his embrace “Be careful


    Don’t ruin the dress


    This indirect consent made Damon’s body tense slightly. Not daring to put too much force on the


    woman in his arms, he pushed her against the wall, igniting a fire on her body, and finally gently


    possessed her


    When Damon called the makeup artists to do Chloe’s makeup again, the expressions on the


    makeup artists faces made Chloe wish she could find a hole to crawl into. The blush on her cheeks


    saved the makeup artists from re–applying blush


    When they were ready again, Nate notified them to prepare to go to the Global Economic Summit


    venue


    Damon helped her put on her coat and went downstairs. Chloe’s legs were still a bit weak


    Fortunately, Damon was holding her, bearing almost all of her weight.


    On the way to the venue, she had a little time to rest


    Those international fashion gatherings or award ceremonies were iparable to the Global


    Economic Summit in terms of influence


    The world’s top hundredpanies were each wealthy enough to rival a country. These capitalists


    not only held absolute positions in internationalpanies, but also held an absolutely not to be


    underestimated value and power between countries


    Any one of them could be a concern for any country, because they were the wealthiest, most


    capable, and wisest people in the world


    In the eyes of the country, money equaled weapons and equipment, which meant a country’s


    absolute basic invibility


    Outside thergest international exhibition center in H City, the scene was now illuminated with


    bright lights. The area was fully adorned with a red carpet. surrounded by armed personnel holding


    long rifles, all poised and solemn, responsibly ensuring the security of the surroundings.


    The people here were high–profile figures, their worth astronomical. They were of significant


    importance to their respective counties, and any mishap in H City could lead to severe diplomatic


    issues


    In the periphery, journalists in smart suits were lined up, cameras in hand, capturing every precious


    moment as figures stepped onto the red carpet As reporters who had covered the Global Economic


    Summit multiple times, they were well acquainted with the people gracing the red carpet. Almost


    every year, the same few corporations attended the Global Economic Summit almost every year


    These faces were no longer a surprise to the journalists.


    Their consistent enthusiasm and the global attention they attracted were due to the significant


    decisions that were made at the Summit, decisions that could affect the direction of entire nations


    and even the world, including coborations, conflicts, and any other potential interactions.


    However this year, apart from the usual, there were two events that were causing a buzz


    For instance, tonight would see the debut of the top executive from Obsidian Group, a leading


    internationalpany, at the Global Economic Summit


    Another point of interest was the internal strife within the Harper Group, a renowned enterprise


    second only to the Obsidian Group


    Presley would personally attend the Summit His grandson, a figure known mostly by reputation and


    not by sight internationally, would also make an appearance. It was not clear what would happen


    when the grandfather and grandson met at that time


    Moreover, it remained to be seen what kind of interactions would take ce between the Harper


    Group and the Obsidian Group
