“The Harper family isn’t short of houses” Damon’s voice abruptly deepened, his gaze fixated on the
collection of keys in Chloe’s hand. Chloe nervously clutched them closer
to her chest
She’d accept them later, any excuse from Stanley would do. Why not take something that was being
given freely?
Stanley gave Damon a disdainful look hands tucked in his pockets, chin lifted arrogantly. “You think I’m
a fool? I’m busy every day Who knows when I won’t be by your
What if you’re bullied one day, or he gets bored of you and throws you out? You need to have a place
to fall back on, don’t you?”
side
Silence fell over the room. Soon after, Alyssa, Elizabeth, and Rose nodded in agreement. “That’s right,
Stanley is thoughtful”
Damon’s face turned sour if it wasn’t for Chloe holding onto his arm, he would have jumped up and
given Stanley a good beating c2
“Give the keys back to him‘ Damon glared at her
Chloe clutched the keys, shaking her head in protest Who wouldn’t want these many houses that were
being given freely?
“Chloe”
Chloe was firm No. He’s night. Who knows what might happen in the future?”
Damon’s face tightened, Chloe could see the veins bulging from his forehead. She softened her tone,
“Why not take it if it’s free?”
“I can give you the same
“it’s not the same What you give is mine, and what he gives is extra. If you give me a hundred dollars, I
have a hundred dollars. If he gives me a hundred dollars, I have two hundred dollars.”
Alyssa nodded on the side, “Damon, you’re too domineering. The Meister family’s kid is far–sighted
and considerate. He’s giving it to Chloe, not you, and it’s not your money he’s spending. Why are you
trying to control him or Chloe? If I were Chloe, I would also want it! Look at me, when I got married
back then, didn’t we also make a promise to never abandon each other? And now, arent we divorced?
You solemnly believe you won’t betray Chloe right now, but who knows what will happen in the
following decades?”
Damon’s brow furrowed deeply. “I just won’t”
Alyssa emphasized. “It’s the current you that won’t”
Elizabeth nodded in agreement. “You just yelled at Chloe You’re starting to show your true colors; who
knows what you could do in the future?”
Damon was speechless. What kind of mother was this?
“Chloe don’t listen to him. I strongly suggest you accept
Rose chimed in, “I second that”
Chloe gripped the keys tighter
Damon, knowing he couldn’t convince Chloe, turned to Stanley. “Take your stuff and get out, otherwise,
no matter how much you give her III destroy it.”
Stanley, unbothered, reached into his pocket and pulled out a black card. “This is for you too. Globally
valid, no limit, spend it however you want
Chloe’s eyes lit up as she reached out to take it only to have Damon snatch it mid air. With a crisp
snap, the card was torn in two. Chloe stared at Damon, her eyes full of protest
Damon tossed the broken card aside and turned to Chloe, whose eyes were welling up with tears. He
paused. “I can give you houses and money”
“It’s not the same. What you give is mine. What he gives is extra.”
Tl give you ten times more
“Even if you give me a hundred times more, it’s still mine.”
Seeing Chloe on the verge of tears, Damon was at a loss
Stanley watched Damon gleefully His mission was to make Damon’s life hard. What goes around
comes around.
Hahahaha
“Look at her you’ve made her cry. You’re a real jerk.” Elizabeth shook her head, her face filled with
disgust
“You’re already bullying her like this, and who knows what you’ll do in the future” Alyssa snorted.
Rose couldn’t help but laugh This childish man, he was completely whipped.
Chloe suddenly stood up, clutching the keys Damon asked, “What are you doing?”
Tm leaving Chloe was quick to learn
Stanley blinked. Til take you”
“Get lost Damon stood up abruptly, hurling the words at Stanley.
Everyone thought he was going to explode, but he just grabbed Chloe, preventing her from leaving
“Let go of me
“I was wrong Just calm down. Think about the twins.
“How much formula and clothes can we buy for them with that money?”
“I prepare the best for them”
“If I had that money, I could save a lot
Chloe felt more aggrieved. After being in business for so long, the thought of losing that money was
unbearable.
Damon knew Chloe was stubbom. He took a deep breath, and looked at Stanley. “Reissue the card for
her”
Stanley snorted. “Tm too busy”
Damon’s face was tight Chloe could hear the grinding of his teeth. She touched the keys in her hand
and a victorious smile played on her lips At least, he wont stop her from accepting these houses
anymore
“I’m hungry” Chloe’s words prompted Damon to take her to the kitchen.

Chapter 1782
“Let’s go eat”
Chloe pouted letting him lead her away She winked at the people in the living room, with a victorious
smile on her face
Elizabeth and Alyssa almost burst into laughter at the sight. That cheeky little girl, Chloe, was full of
mischief
And Damon, that rascal, he never stood a chance against her. He was practically in a state of panic,
and she hadrit even shed a tear
Everyone boasted about Damon’s intelligence, yet when it came to Chloe, his intelligence plummeted
to below zero.
Everyone stood up, making their way to the dining room.
Alyssa patted Stanley’s arm, The Meister boy, come along and don’t be a stranger
Stanley followed Alyssa, a smirk playing on his lips. “You do realize that Chloe and I are close, right?
Have you seen how terrified your grandson is of me? Are you not. worried I might steal Chloe away?
Alyssa threw back her head and laughed. “How long have you known Chloe?
“Nearly seven years.
Alyssa nodded Chloe and Damon have known each other for less than a year”
Stanley furrowed his brows
f Chloe wanted to be with you, she had plenty of opportunities in those seven years. You’re a great
catch, Stanley. Any woman would be lucky to have you. But the real question is, does Chice feel the
same way about you? Or perhaps, what you feel for her is not love. Because if it was, would you allow
the woman you love to fall inmy another man’s arms? Alyssa spoke with a knowing smile, as if she had
seen it all before
Stanley hit his lip his brows furrowed even more tightly
Alyssa glanced at him, raising an eyebrow Perhaps you havent met the one who truly makes your heart
flutter Once you do, don’t hesitate Act on it You don’t want to live
with regrets
Stanley asked “What do you mean by truly makes your heart flutter?
Alyssa paused watching Damon carefully guide Chloe with a tender smile on her face. “It’s an
inexplicable desire to possess her feeling jealous when she smiles at anytine else feeling heartbroken
when she cres. When she’s happy, you’re happy When she cries, you’re even more upset. Love is a
tricky thing to comprehend. As for what you’re feeling only you can determine that”
Stanley frowned. “But I feel all of those things for Chloe!
Alyssa shook her head, “If you’re confused you will risk hurting another woman’s heart”
“There wont be another woman.
“That’s not for you to decide.”
Upon seeing Stanley’s stubborn expression, Alyssa sighed internally, “Well, when you meet her, you’ll
understand. Even if you aren’t trustworthy, I trust my granddaughter–in–laws judgement. It’s no secret
that Chloe loves Damon
Stanley bit his lip That stung
Despite this, Alyssa sighed “Damon might seem like he spoils Chloe, treating her like a delicate flower.
But in reality, Chloe is the one who’s always accommodating him. It’s hard to predict what kind of
temperament he might develop if she continues pampering him like this. He always needs to feel a bit
threatened, to remind him of how amazing Chice is if he dares to mistreat Chloe, he’ll have a world of
regrets”
Stanley raised an eyebrow, something about Alyssa’s words didn’t sit night with him. After a few
moments of silence, realization hit him, “So, you’re inviting me over requtarty to keep your grandson on
his toes?
Alyssa smiled “Even if I didn’t invite you, you’d still be hanging around Chloe, wouldn’t you?”
More accurately he’d be hanging around Darmon
Stanley had a thousand curse words running through his mind Alyssa seemed calm and collected, but
she was cunning. So, he was the mediator between Chloe and Damon tasked with adding spice to their
relationship. There was probably no one else in the world who would dare to do this.
Damn! He had initially planned to ruffle Damon’s feathers at dinner instead, all he saw was Damon and
Chloe flaunting their affection for each other. He didn’t stay long after dinner storming out with a grim
expression.
Chice was too preoccupied with Damon to chat with Stanley. She watched him leave, clearly upset,
with a puzzled look on her face.
Wasn’t he usually more lively? Why the sudden change in behavior?
Next door, construction was still in progress Chloe and Rose took a walk, passing by the site. The area
already covered a vast expanse of land yet the construction team was still digging expanding the site
even further
Rose shook her head in awe, ‘Looks like someone is determined to outdo Damon”
Chloe quirked an eyebrow Given the scale of the project, it would likely take a year or two to complete.
Supposedly it was to accommodate her, but who knows who the lady of the house would be when it
was
Being neighbors was fine She and whoever Stanley ended up with could keep each other company. As
long as she cou salch Staniey be has the
hoped that girl would appear soon
Chloe how exactly did you meet Stanley? You never mentioned him before. He’s head over heels for
you even baing you vo many frukes without batting an ays. Have al the nich men in the world found
their way to you?
Chloe smirked. His fortune was earned the hard way
Rose paused Chloe, what were you doing all these years in F Country? You disappeared without a
trace, only reaching out when you hit like it. And when you i never spoke about what you were doing
there. You met this man named Stanley lived with hum for a few years, and just now you mentioned
that he lived a dangero always on edge What were you two up to 7”
Chloe sighed, pulling her coat tighter around her I was left in a foreign country with nothing to my name
i was tricked when finding jobs and ended up being sold to an island. One day, Stanley led a raid on
the island. After a brutal fight, we were the only survors. He was injured, and I saved him in retum, be
saved me i had nothing, wo i stuck with him. After all, the food was good I didn’t have to worry about
starving”
Rose’s mouth dropped open in surprise. She had often pondered how hard it must have been for her
friend, all alone in a foreign country. She had emisioned Chloe washing dishes in a restaurant, working
multiple jobs, scrimping and saving every meal, always hungry, but she had never imagined that Chice
had been sold and had almost died
‘Chloeshe uttered softly, her voice filled with sympathy
Chloe simply smiled ‘Looking back now, it doesn’t seem so scary anymore. I mean, I’ve made it
through, right? But what’s really funny is that every time I mention that! saved Stanley, he gets all huffy
and puffed. Is it really that embarrassing to be saved by me? He won’t even let me talk about it”
Chloe’s tone was indeed light, as if her past hardships paled in comparison to her present happiness.
But her last question had indeed been a nagging concern
“So you stayed with him all this time? And you also lived a dangerous life with him?
