Chapter 972
Seeing Percy’s face, Freya knew he didn’t have any solutions either, so she had to bring up Presley. Percy couldn’t care less about Presley’s poor health at this point, and he just had to leave in a hurry after agreeing.
“Asking Presley…”
Nathan’s deep, cold voice came from behind.
Percy turned around to see Nathan leaning against the door of the emergency room. Seeing his indifferent look, Percy was filled with anger.
Nathan looked up, his face expressionless. “You might as well beg Ms. Chloe directly. After all, most women are soft-hearted. If Presley gets hurt by your actions, you guys can give it a try if you’re not afraid of the consequences.”
But was Chloe like most women?
Nathan raised an eyebrow, a hint of interest flashing across his handsome face.
Damon’s villa
“Damon, I need to freshen up. Chloe seemed to have regained her calm, rejecting Damon’s offer to apply medicine to her wounds. Damon put down the medicine and bent down to pick her up. Chloe was silent as Damon held her, letting him carry her upstairs.
He first placed her on the bed, then brought a chair into the bathroom and placed her on it.
“Just wipe yourself down. You have a wound on your foot, it can’t get wet.
He rolled up his sleeves, ready to clean her himself.
“I can do it myself.” She still refused his help.
Damon saw a deep bite mark on her lips. Probably… during the process of him carrying her upstairs
“Be careful with the wound.” He handed her a warm towel and stood aside.
Chloe nodded quietly, “Could you find me a set of clothes? I need to change into them later.”
Damon frowned, “Pajamas?”
“No, something I can wear outside.”
Percy burst into the living room of Damon’s villa, the bright light stinging his eyes
Chloe was sitting on the couch in the living room, holding a glass of water. She was neatly dressed, her hair was neatly combed, a stark contrast to her previous disheveled state. She was calm as if she had just woken up from a dream. She was not as weak as he had expected, nor was she unconscious from the shock as he had imagined.
She sat quietly with the glass in her hand, not like she was resting, but more like… waiting.
When Percy appeared in front of Chloe, her expression didn’t change at all. Clearly, she was waiting for him.
Damon was sitting next to Chloe, accompanying her the whole time. Seeing Percy come in, he sneered.
“It seems Ivan’s intrusion into my yard is a tribute to you.”
Percy clenched his lips.
Damon turned his head to look at Chloe, “What are you waiting for?”
“I don’t know.” Chloe took a sip of water and shook her head..
Did she really not know?
Percy stood there. His fists clenched so tightly that they trembled. After a while, his voice softened a bit
“Ms. Summers, I’m here to ask you to save my son.”
Chice finally smiled at his words, her voice cold and clear. “I’m the victim, I’m the one who wants him dead the most.”
So I’m here to beg you. He’s part of the Harper family, Presley’s own grandson, Damon’s cousin…”
Chloe’s face didn’t change. “You’re threatening me, not begging me.”
I’m begging you
“But all I hear from you is the threshold of the Harper family. Is this how you beg someone? To beg you have to pay a price?
Percy’s face muscles trembled violently. “What do you want?” After saying this, he glanced at Damon, sensing a bad premonition in his heart
Chloe thought for a moment” Shares
Damon’s eyes immediately became sharp at her words.
Percy’s eyes widened in disbelief. “Ms. Summers! Your request makes me suspect that you deliberately seduced my son! To steal my shares!”
Percy had never cared how much the Harper family’s shares were worth! But if the shares in his hands were stolen, even if Presley died later, he wouldn’t be able to get the position of the family head!
Chloe ignored Percy’s speculation, just continued to say, “So you came to beg me empty-handed? To save a man who almost raped me. How kind do you think I am?”
“You…
“It seems your son’s life really isn’t as important as those shares in your eyes. If that’s the case, you don’t have much to worry about it. With those shares to keep you company, your future years might be quite satisfying.”
The veins on Percy’s forehead bulged. “Ivan was framed by you!”
Chloe frowned. “I’ve never met him, let alone knew he was your son. Or are you saying that he dared to enter my yard because you agreed?” Percy’s eyes flickered, his anger subsiding slightly. However, Chloe simply looked away.
“If you give me the shares, I agree to save him. If not… well, never mind. Damon, I’m tired.”
Damon stood up and picked Chloe up from the couch. Chloe’s feet were wrapped in thick gauze, it looked like her injuries were serious.
Damon carried Chloe up the stairs to the second floor, while Percy stood in place, his anger unabated, trembling for a while, then closed his eyes and growled, “How much money do you want?”
“Damon, how much do you think will make you satisfied?” Chloe smiled slightly, looking up at Damon who was holding her
She wanted to make Percy no longer a threat to Damon in the future. She didn’t intend to push Percy’s family into a corner, just wanted him to behave in the future, not to affect Damon’s position, at least, to reduce a powerful competitor.
Percy’s face grew uglier and uglier, Chloe even saw the veins on his forehead begin to show.
