Chapter 1102
The long, almost endless, luxurious corridor fell into a deadly silence in an instant.
Rhoda slowly blinked, the image of Damon whom she met at the mall today flashing in her mind, then she suddenly laughed.
“Fritz, you’ve got some nerve, spreading rumors about the President of the Harper Group. Be careful not to upset him and get kicked out of the Harper Group.”
After Rhoda’s words, Rupin regained his senses and chuckled softly. “When did the president get married? How come I didn’t know about it?” Austin, who was almost frightened earlier, now remembered that indeed, how could no one know if the owner of the Harper Group was married?
Fritz shook his head with a light laugh. “Is it that you really don’t believe it? Or you’re just afraid to believe it?”
Everyone fell silent again. The atmosphere became somewhat eerie.
At this moment, the hotel elevator stopped on the sixteenth floor from the twenty–sixth floor.
In the quiet corridor, everyone remained silent, sharing a secret smile, contemplating the truth and falsehood of the situation.
Only Makenna looked confused, “Who is the president of the Harper Group? Is it another man that woman seduced? The Harper Group? The big Harper Group? She’s the wife of the president of the Harper Group? Haha, how is that possible?! This must be a deliberate attempt to use someone as a scapegoat. I think she’s delusional! She thinks she’s worthy of being kept by someone of the same caliber as the president of the Harper Group!” Rhoda walked over, took Rupin’s arm, and laughed. “What’s so hard about this, Rupin, isn’t the President in the hotel? As for the truth, why don’t we go and confirm with him?”
Mr. Harper…
Such a perfect man, whether it was his appearance, temperament, physique, or his vast wealth, how could he possibly be interested in Chloe?
Hearing that the president was in the hotel, Makenna immediately burst into laughter, “How about that, you little skank, you’ve hit a brick wall now, haven’t you? All your talk is just trying to raise your own price, right? No matter how high you raise it, you’re still being kept by a man, aren’t you?”
Chloe didn’t say anything but looked down the corridor towards the elevator.
A tall and straight figure gradually approached, with his long legs walking steadily. He led the way, with Stephen and Nate following on either side. Both men followed Damon with serious, cold expressions. Compared to Nate’s strict demeanor, Stephen seemed a bit irritable!
Damon’s presence was undeniable, and people turned to look at the approaching trio. Their gaze was locked on Damon as soon as they saw him.
“Who’s keeping who?”
Damon didn’t stop, his voice low and indifferent, making him seem emotionless. All eyes were on Damon, and for a moment, no one could snap back into reality.
Chloe gave a small smile, turned her face away, and didn’t look at anyone.
Fritz was the first to react, he said to Damon, “Mr. Harper…”
Everyone came to their senses. Stephen nervously swallowed and opened his mouth but made no sound.
Austin looked at Damon, his eyes were blank, then slowly refocused: He quickly adjusted his pajamas, “President Harper!” He swiftly ran to Damon’s side, and bent over with a full–faced smile, “Nice to meet you! I’m Austin.”
Damon gave him a cold glance, his eyes deep and indifferent, filled with wisdom and calmness. Soon, he moved his gaze away from Austin’s face, looked at his extended hand, didn’t pause, and didn’t respond at all.
“Answer my question.”
He turned his gaze to Fritz next to him. Fritz nodded and was about to speak but was interrupted by someone next to him.
“Mr. Harper, the thing is, Ms. Chloe and Mr. Austin have some shady relationship, and Makenna found out. Now she wants to deny it, and Fritz said she’s your wife… she’s using you as a shield, it’s just…”
Damon’s eyebrows twitched slightly, and looked at the woman standing not far away, his expression unchanged, his voice steady, incredibly calm. “Caught red–handed? When did this happen?”
Rhoda blushed slightly, When she glanced at Chloe, she noticed her cold and independent look, “About half an hour ago.”
“Oh?”
Damon raised an eyebrow, “So what’s this about being kept?”
Rhoda quickly explained, “After Makenna found out about Ms. Summers and Mr. Austin, Ms. Summers denied having any relationship with him, saying that he couldn’t afford her lifestyle…”
“And Rupin, he also wants to keep Ms. Summers, Makenna even called Ms. Summers a slut, seducing men. But none of this is true! Ms. Summers has a fiancé, and she couldn’t possibly do such a thing!” Dorthy glared at Rhoda, who was saying one thing after another, and angrily added a sentence. “Also, the person who called Makenna to tell her to come was you, Rhoda! You have no place to speak here! You’ve been leading others to doubt Ms. Summers, and now you’re not even trying to hide it!”
Rhoda frowned, “Dorthy, don’t go too far!”
“Hmph!” Dorthy tilted her head, ignoring her.
Rhoda awkwardly turned her heads and smiled at Damon. “I’m sorry Mr. Harper, you must find this amusing. There’s some misunderstanding here. But the most important thing now is that, Ms. Summers used your name without your permission, and this will really damage your reputation…”
Damon’s eyes, which were already slightly cold, were now as icy as a sculpture.
Rhoda was spooked by the icy aura he gave off, but the thought of it being caused by Chloe messing with him filled her with glee.
She was the president of Starlight International. So what. Would she face troubles when meeting the president of the Harper Group? Well, she deserved this when she chose to use the name of Mr. Harper to help herself out.
“Nate.”
Damon suddenly called out Nate’s name with a serious tone. Right away, Nate stepped out from behind him.
With the look of a cat that got the cream, Rhoda seemed to have seen Chloe’s worst–case scenario. She was practically taunting Chloe, waiting in silence
for her embarrassment, when all of a sudden, a ‘smack‘ sound rang out, followed by a burning sensation on her face.

I was curious if you ever thought of changing the page layout of your blog? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one or two images. Maybe you could space it out better?
