Cole felt a chill run down his spine. “What… What the hell did you do to Wendy?!”
“She should be… She should be fine, I guess.”
“Damon, Wendy did all this stuff for you ‘cause she’s into you! Every time you hurt her, it’s like a knife in
her heart. You get that?”
“By your logic, her heart should have been stabbed a few hundred times already. But she’s still
standing strong, which only means her feelings aren’t that deep. To me, these shallow feelings are just
a burden, and honestly, they’re quite annoying. She said she’d rather die without me, but she doesn’t
know when to let go, or when to back off. So, I’m just giving her a hand. I’ve given her plenty of
chances, and I’ve shown enough respect to the Alonso family. Now, I just want to deal with my
problems, and that’s got nothing to do with anyone else.”
“You…”
“I’ve got some stuff to handle, so I’ll keep her with me for now. Once I’m done, I’ll hand her back to you.
As for the state banquet she wanted to attend, I’m afraid she won’t be able to make it.”
Cole was so mad that his lips were quivering. “Damon, you just don’t want Wendy to attend the state
banquet. That’s why you chose this time to handle your business!”
Damon smirked. “Well, yes and no.”
He did have stuff to handle, but choosing to do it at this time was partially because he didn’t want her to
show up at the state banquet. With her flamboyant and restless personality, Chloe would always have
to deal with her.
The state banquet was a gathering of nobles and politicians worldwide. If something went wrong, it
would affect Chloe, no matter the outcome.
Public opinion was a double–edged sword. Once something happened, there would always be
opposition. Once someone started to guide public opinion, it could form a large public opinion group.
Even if it was the minority, it could not be ignored.
Cole was furious at Damon’s indifferent response.
He asked Damon to let Wendy go, but he knew that for Damon, that was impossible. He wanted to say
more, but Damon had already hung up Cole immediately stood up.
Grace saw that Cole looked upset and asked anxiously, “What happened?”
Cole brushed her off and headed for the door. “Wendy’s under Damon’s control. I need to go to the
hospital to find Presley!”
I
“What?!” Grace’s face turned pale. She followed him to the living room. Her body went limp, and she
sat down on the sofa.
Cole rushed to the hospital as fast as he could, but he couldn’t even get through the hospital’s main
entrance.
Cole and Damon were now on opposite sides; this was their first confrontation. Damon had arranged
for people to lock down the entire hospital. He seemed to know that Cole would come to the hospital.
Not seemed, he just knew.
The bodyguards who stopped Cole didn’t look surprised when they saw him at the hospital. They
seemed to have been waiting for Cole’s appearance.
“Mr. Alonso, you can’t go in.”
suppressed his anger. “I’m here to visit Presley.”
Vendy has already visited on behalf of the Alonso family today!”
ney even had their rebuttal ready.
Cole’s forehead veins were throbbing. “I need to discuss important matters with Presley.”
“Even more reason not to let you in, Mr. Alonso. It’s not appropriate to discuss important matters now.”
The security at the hospital was strict, and the Harper family’s bodyguards were not to be trifled with.
Staying here would just be a waste of time. Without Damon’s permission, he wouldn’t be able to get
into the hospital tonight.
Regardless of what Wendy had done, she was still his beloved daughter. He could forgive himself for
hitting her a couple of times, but if someone else bullied her, how could he not worry?
But he couldn’t see Presley now, and Damon hadn’t given any updates. He really couldn’t find a way
out.
For a moment, he didn’t know what to do.
After some thought, he could only have his people find out where Damon had taken Wendy today. If
Damon refused to let her go, he would have to take drastic
measures.
At that moment, Wendy was lying in a cold room, barely alive. The walls were white, with no windows
or decorations, just a bed and some medical equipment.
She had just undergone surgery to remove six bullets from her body. The operation was done without
any anesthesia, and she was in so much pain that she could hardly breathe. She wished she could die
right then and there.
Now she was utterly drained, wanting only to sleep, but the pain kept her awake. Why did she have to
go through this?
She was the privileged daughter of the Alonso family. She could have lived a life of luxury. Why did she
have to endure this torment here?
But even now, she still wanted to live. She didn’t want to die; she was the daughter of the Alonso
family. She still had to attend the state banquet. This was an opportunity that many people could not
get in their lifetime.
“Who will save me… I have to attend the state banquet… I’m the daughter of the Alonso family… why
are they doing this to me…”
In her villa outside the palace of Y Country, was Princess Ava.
A team of designers brought in the designed banquet evening dress. It was an extremely lavish design.
Becky happily looked at herself spinning in front of the mirror in the dress, as if she had already
imagined how much she would stand out at the banquet.
Being the center of attention was every woman’s dream. They always hoped to get more admiration
from men, but envy and jealousy from women. That would make them feel superior. That was their
pleasure and the reason for their existence.
Barbara put on her dress and slowly walked down the stairs. She was wearing a long dress with
champagne–colored silk at the bottom, accessorized with handmade long crystal chains. It showed off
her figure perfectly and exuded her feminine charm. As she moved with the light, she looked dazzling.
Ava looked satisfied at her two excellent daughters, Barbara and Becky. A smile of satisfaction and joy
shown on her face.
Her daughters were indeed the best, which made her incredibly proud. But what she was actually most
proud of was herself. If it weren’t for her hustle, she wouldn’t be living this life that was way beyond
many others, and her daughters wouldn’t be living the enviable lives they had now.
She was the one who made all of this happen.
“So, Mom, what do you think?” Barbara asked with a grin. Actually, she didn’t even need to ask. She
could see the pride and satisfaction written all over Ava’s face. Ava nodded. “Absolutely perfect.”
Becky, on the other hand, was wearing a mid–length, blue dress. It had off–the–shoulder long sleeves,
both the neckline and cuffs were studded with twinkling tiny diamonds, equally dazzling and oozing with
class. Compared to Barbara’s elegance, she looked even more petite and adorable.
