Chapter 1059
Damon was completely clueless that he had turned into an impotent man in the eyes of his family.
At this moment, he opened the door to his bedroom and laid Chloe on the bed. Chloe had a marriage certificate in her arms and was holding a fork in her other hand that she had carried along earlier.
Damon crouched down in front of her and looked up at her. His eyes were deep and gentle. “Congrats on becoming my wife today, Mrs. Harper.”
Chloe was looking down with her eyes sparkling with some excitement. The title of Mrs. Harper brought about some indescribable feelings in her heart. This identity would be attached to her for the rest of her life, till death do them part.
“Congrats on marrying me today, Mr. Harper.”
Her voice was choked up, her eyes shone with tears as she kept staring at the man in front of her. The man who was always high above, noble and domineering, was now half–kneeling in front of her, looking up at her with a gentle gaze.
“Even though I always knew I would end up marrying you, I thought I was prepared, but now, I still find it hard to believe. Damon, I really…I’m married now, and to you, it’s so surreal…
In the past twenty–five years, she had never been certain that she would end up being Mrs. Harper.
Damon reached out to touch her cheek, “Now, no one can take you away.”
Chloe couldn’t help but chuckle. He was always worried about this. “Nobody could have taken me away in the first place.”
“Really?” Thinking of those people, Damon’s gaze darkened.
“Do I look like someone who would change her mind easily?”
“The problem isn’t you, it’s that those people are thick–skinned.”
Despite knowing she was his, they still tried to snatch her away.
He stood up, gently kissing Chloe’s lips. Chloe tilted her head slightly to return his gentle kiss, one hand lightly resting on his shoulder, reciprocating his kiss. The kiss between the two was devoid of any lust. This tenderness was proof that they regarded each other as the most precious treasure in the world.
With his forehead against hers, his warm breath sprayed on her cheeks, “Mrs. Harper.”
“Mmm.”
“I’m very happy now, what should I do?”
Chloe hesitated for a moment, placed her hand on his shoulder, and looked up at him, “You should feast tonight.”
Damon paused for a moment, then kissed her again, this long kiss carried a hint of punishment. Not until he had her lips swollen from the kiss, did he let her go.
“I have to go downstairs to help with dinner.”
Damon buried his face in her neck, leisurely kissing it, inhaling the scent that came from her collar, holding her waist tightly and unwilling to let go of her.
“Let the servants downstairs do it.”
“Why would I do that? I’ll go down and check.”
Pushing Damon away, Chloe put the marriage certificate in the drawer of the bedside table, along with the fork. No matter what, that fork was a witness to the start of her marriage.
She and Damon went downstairs together and saw Elizabeth sitting on the sofa, wiping her tears. Alyssa was sitting in a wheelchair, gently patting her shoulder. Elizabeth sighed continuously.
“Elizabeth, what’s wrong?”
Elizabeth looked up, her eyes teary and blurred, looking at Chloe who seemed worried.
Her lips… red and swollen as if she had just been kissed. Her neck… there were obviously two red marks on her neck.
How long had they been gone?
Elizabeth glanced at the clock on the wall. It hadn’t even been ten minutes.
“Wow…” Elizabeth suddenly burst into tears, and the tears flowed like a spring.
Chloe quickly sat next to her, her hand on her shoulder, her eyes full of anxiety. “What…what happened?”
She looked at Alyssa, feeling completely confused. Alyssa also sighed.
Elizabeth turned and threw herself into Chloe’s arms, sobbing. “Oh Chloe, my poor Chloe. I’m the one who got you into this. I’m sorry, I’m sorry…”
Chloe wasn’t narcissistic. She thought her IQ was okay, but she had no idea what was going on. It was Elizabeth who had just forcefully decided that Chloe and Damon should get married, and now she was crying like a child. And Chloe didn’t even know why.
She could only pat Elizabeth’s shoulder soothingly, “It’s okay, I don’t feel like you owe me anything.”
Elizabeth cried in Chloe’s arms for a while, then sat up straight and touched Chloe’s face.
“Honey, don’t worry, I will make sure you are happy”
She thought, with the advancement of medical technology, this disease could definitely be cured.
Chloe nodded in confusion.

“Let’s go, let’s prepare dinner together in the kitchen. By the way, your dad will be back tonight.”
Dad?
She turned to look at Damon, asking him with her eyes, “Is this ‘dad‘ the ‘dad‘ I’m thinking of?”
Damon raised an eyebrow, “This early?”
There were still a few days before their engagement banquet.
Elizabeth sobbed a few times, “I miss him.”
Damon’s mouth twitched a little. He sat down on the sofa, “You guys go and prepare dinner.”
He was really fed up with these two! They were so far apart, but they still managed to show off their affection!
“Try to get Nathan to come back.”
“Okay.”
With that, Elizabeth pulled Chloe into the kitchen.
Damon picked up his phone and dialed Nathan Harper’s number. The call was quickly answered.
“My dear brother! Where are you? Has your plane landed yet…come back quickly! I can’t handle this alone…”
Damon gently massaged his temples, calmly saying, “Come home for dinner tonight. Dad’s coming home tonight.”
“What?” There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone.
“Didn’t you hear clearly?”
After a moment of silence, Nathan suddenly yelled, “Are you at home right now?! Why aren’t you at the office?! Do you know how busy the company has been these past few days?! There are too many issues in the company! And you just left to go home?!”
“You will take over the company’s work sooner or later. You need to learn more.” Damon explained patiently.
“Why though? I ain’t your son! I don’t need to take over your family business!”
Damon chuckled slightly, “Aren’t you scared I’m gonna boot you out of the company?”
