The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride Chapter 1175

Chapter 1175 

Chloe halted in her amusement with an alpaca, letting it snatch the branch away. She then slowly turned to face him. 

“Damon, about Stanley, I might need to explain more. He’s not just anyone to me. In fact, he means something different to me. I can’t treat him like everyone else. But I know very clearly that in this world, only you are my husband. No one else can replace you, Stanley included.” 

Chloe’s voice was serious. Damon looked down at her, his eyes dark. “I know he has special significance to you.” 

So he couldn’t put Stanley on the same level as others, and it even made him feel uneasy. 

Lately, the Harper family had started to become chaotic. Robin was clearly ready to start making moves using Wendy. Before, he was always at ease letting Chloe handle anything involving Wendy because she was smart. If the two of them clashed, Chloe wouldn’t be on the losing end. 

But this time in West Valley, some things had developed beyond his expectations. Wendy’s appearance in West Valley seemed coincidental, but it was deliberate. Robin seemed to be growing restless, no longer concealing his ambition. 

T 

Strictly speaking, the West Valley incident was just a trigger. Ever since he had acquired the Austin family’s business, the hidden crisis had finally surfaced, causing ripples in the calm lake. He had never worried about this day coming, but he did not expect Robin to start overtly pressuring Chloe using Wendy. 

Why? If he cooperated with the Alonso family, wouldn’t that be more disadvantageous for Robin? 

His gaze darkened, and he looked at the woman in his arms, holding her ever tighter involuntarily. He had, in the end, dragged her into the Harper family’s conflicts. 

So, he couldn’t help but be wary of Stanley, who held special significance to her. 

In response to Damon’s silence, Chloe buried her face in his chest. “Damon, what do you like about me? Why do you love me so much?” 

The strength with which Damon held her increased. “I like everything about you.” 

“I think so too.” 

“Hm?” 

“I think everything about you is great too.” Then she naturally added, “That’s why I love you so much.” 

Damon gave a slight smile, then heard Chloe continue. “Don’t limit yourself because of me. I won’t hold you back.” 

Although they had already moved out of the Harper family home, Elizabeth ended up coming to Greenfield Village in the end. She discussed engagement arrangements with Chloe while pouting. 

“Even though I’m really angry and wish I could never go back, in reality, we have to return to the Harper family home before the engagement. Otherwise, it would really be a laughingstock.” 

Her tone was reluctant, but Chloe just smiled and nodded. “I know. But Mom, does Dad know about this decision?” 

“Why should he know? This is a matter between us women.” 

Elizabeth was still somewhat disgruntled, but she didn’t seem as angry. She discussed other engagement details with Chloe, then she stayed for lunch 

“I’ll go to the kitchen to see what ingredients we have and think about what we can make today.” Chloe stood up after she finished speaking. 

Elizabeth seemed to suddenly remember something and stood up too, “I’ll come too.” 

So the two of them headed to the kitchen together. Along the way, Elizabeth excitedly said, “Chloe, you haven’t eaten my meals before, right? Let me tell you, a big reason your dad fell head over heels for me was because of my cooking skills.” 

Chloe laughed in surprise, “Really? Then, could you teach me how to make a few dishes today if you have time?” 

These past two days at the manor, she really had nothing to do, other than arranging flowers, watching TV, and playing with the adorable alpaca. 

The servants did most of the chores, so she had nothing to do. 

Elizabeth readily agreed to Chloe’s suggestion. “Of course! I’ll have you know, cooking skills are very important for a woman They often say, if you want to win a man’s heart, you must first win his stomach…” 

Chloe laughed. “Damon’s heart already belongs to me.” 

Elizabeth playfully glanced at her, “Look at you, so smug! But it must feel different seeing your own man eat the food you’ve made with your own hands. 

Chloe nodded, that made sense. She thought about it and realized that it had been a while since she had cooked something for Damon. She still —remembered when they had just met, the first time he came over for dinner, and how he leisurely ate. The memory was still fresh. 

At that time, she even doubted that this noble and elegant man would be eating such ordinary food. So she remembered every bite he took clearly. Even though she tried to keep a normal mindset at the time, she knew very well that it was hard to stay truly calm in front of such an excellent man. 

Approaching the kitchen, Chloe looked at the ingredients on the counter as she listened to Elizabeth say, “Your dad said when he proposed to me that he would never forget the taste of every dish I made in his lifetime. See, cooking skills are so important for a woman. For example, I got a happy marriage because of it.” 

The kitchen staff who were busy working all laughed at Elizabeth’s words. 

This lady had always been fun from a young age, and even after so many years, she hadn’t changed. 

“So what’s Damon’s favorite dish that you make? Can you teach me?” 

Elizabeth admired Chloe’s look of reverence and anticipation, then lightly nodded, “All the dishes I make are his favorite! They’re made with a mother’s 

love! Come, today I’ll show off my cooking skills.” 

With that, she suddenly took out an apron from somewhere and effortlessly put it around her neck. Chloe blinked but immediately helped her put on an 

apron. 

People began bustling around in the kitchen.. 

Upstairs in the study, Royce and Damon were deep into discussion. They speculated about Robin’s sudden interest in matchmaking Damon with the Alonso family. 

“Robin never explicitly said anything before, but he also never interfered much with your love life, especially with Miss Alonso. Now he’s suddenly playing matchmaker. It’s probably not just because he cares about your love life. He might be thinking about the future of the Harper family. Be careful, ever since you bought Austin’s Hardware, the Harper family might be in for a bumpy ride.” 

Damon tightened his lips, “Regardless of his matchmaking, Wendy and I have no emotional connection, not to mention I’m with Chloe now, even if I 

wasn’t… 

His words trailed off, his face gradually turning sour. 

Watching him, Royce’s expression remained calm and steady. “If Chloe wasn’t in the picture, would he still do this?”
