“She was never the one messing with your head. And it ain’t me that’s losing my judgement either.” As
Damon spoke, his eyes were deep and icy, his words filled with a cold indifference, freezing the air and
their hearts bit by bit.
Who was he talking about? It was pretty obvious. In the room, only Presley’s heavy breaths could be
heard.
After a long while, Presley finally spoke again, “What if I force you to choose between that woman and
me?”
The living room fell silent once again. Chloe, standing behind him, tightly gripped Damon’s hand. She
was afraid he’d make an irreversible decision.
Damon held her hand and fixed his icy stare on Presley. “Are you sure you want me to spell it out?”
His frosty tone sent chills down Presley’s spine. Damon’s decision seemed a foregone conclusion.
Standing close to Presley, Grace, looked smug, a hint of malice in her eyes.
The Harper family was such a big deal. Only a fool would give up such a massive fortune for just one
woman among so many in the world. He seemed fearless now, willing to give up everything for a
woman, but she didn’t believe that Damon would actually choose a woman when push comes to shove.
Now, he was just threatening Presley, wanting both the woman and the fortune, unwilling to give up
either!
Seeing Presley’s hesitation, Damon spoke coldly again. “Why don’t you answer my question first?
Either Wendy leaves the Harper family, or I leave with Chloe. You choose. I can live with either
decision.”
Presley wavered. Grace’s face also stiffened in an instant.
This question could have been put another way. Either the Harper and Alonso families severed ties
completely! Or he and the Harper family severed ties completely! This question was really harsh.
Severing ties with the Alonsos was something Presley had always been trying to prevent. Now that
they were at odds, Damon bluntly put the essence of the matter out there. If it weren’t for the Alonso
family, if it weren’t for Presley’s overemphasis on the Alonsos, none of this would have happened
today.
Grace didn’t expect things to come to this. When she returned to P City, she had been told many times
to know her limits, not to strain the relationship between the two families. But now she was filled with
panic. Could the Alonso family still be called the Alonso family if they severed ties with the Harper
family?
“Presley!” She suddenly called out to him, sounding somewhat panicked, “We’re all family, let’s not
make things so tense. I came to P City to take care Even if Damon hadn’t mentioned it, I would’ve
taken Wendy away today!”
Clearly, Grace was trying to salvage the situation.
“But now… Damon, look, Wendy’s still unconscious, I can’t take her away right now. Can we wait until
she wakes up… I’m begging you!” about to say something, but Grace quickly added another sentence.
of Wendy.
Damon
looked like he was
“Why are you asking him? Don’t I have this right? Let her stay! Wait until her injuries are healed before
leaving!” Presley spoke seriously, causing Damon’s gaze to tense slightly.
“It seems you’ve made your decision, so…”
“Damon!” Elizabeth called out worriedly from the side.
Once this decision was made, it would be hard to change. Moreover, she didn’t want the family’s
relationship to become too tense.
Chloe also tightened her grip on Damon’s hand and stepped forward. “Grandpa Presley, may I go
upstairs to see Wendy?”
“What are you going upstairs for? Are you trying to upset her to death?”
“No.” Chloe suppressed her anger and spoke softly, “Today, Grace came to take Wendy away, it just
happened that an accident occurred. I was the one who made her faint, and it’s my responsibility. I just
heard she hasn’t woken up yet, so I’m a bit scared. I found a very skilled doctor. I want to take her
upstairs to check on Wendy’s condition. If something really happened to her, then I’m indeed
responsible”
y responsibility,” “I’m a bit scared,” and “I’m indeed Apart from the phrase “I was the one who made her
faint!” which sounded a bit resentful and angry, “It’s responsible,” all sounded quite reassuring. Presley
knew that Chloe was making a compromise. Although he was angry, he glanced at the young woman
Chloe had just pointed out. “She’s so young, is her medical skill better than the Harper family’s medical
team?”
Being unfamiliar with the new members of the medical team, Presley genuinely didn’t recognize this
young woman.
“She may be young, but all her family members are doctors. She’s received medical education from her
family since childhood, covering various fields of medicine. Her skills are absolutely reliable. Let her
help check on Wendy. Maybe she can help Wendy regain consciousness?”
Presley said, “Let her go upstairs to see.”
Damon stood still, and his expression still hadn’t recovered from the earlier gloom. But Chloe had
already taken the young woman carrying the medical case upstairs with Presley and Grace.
In Wendy’s room, two maids were discussing what they had overheard at the stairway.
“Mr. Harper was so scary just now, he almost had a fight with Presley.”
“Yeah, the two families have such good relations, why is Grace so determined to follow up on Ms.
Alonso’s injury?”
“She might be starting trouble for Ms. Chloe on purpose, considering Ms. Alonso has always had her
eye on Mr. Harper.”
“If she was here to pick up Ms. Alonso from the get–go, wouldn’t it have been better to do so earlier?
Now Ms. Alonso hasn’t regained consciousness yet, how’s she supposed to leave?”
“Ms. Chloe brought a doctor herself. Heard she’s top–notch, not sure if she can bring her back though.”
Chloe walked in with the young female doctor, then pleaded in front of Presley and Grace, “Dr. Jane,
I’m begging you, do everything you can to bring Ms. Alonso back as soon as possible.”
Jane was as cool as a cucumber. “All the doctors have been stumped, I might not be able to do any
better. Let me take a look at her first.”
With that, she bent over, lifted Wendy’s eyelid, then gently moved her jaw to check her complexion.
Finally, she sat there, starting to take Ms. Alonso’s pulse.

Everyone in the room fell silent, all eyes were glued on Jane taking Wendy’s pulse. After a while, Jane
slowly lifted her head, her gaze sweeping past Chloe. She gave a faint smile, then suddenly blurted
out,
“Mr. Harper, when did you get here?”
