Chapter 1546

While seeing Cole off, Robin walked him all the way to the front gate of Harper's Mansion.

Cole said, "I heard that before Damon left the Harper Group, he plunged most of the funds into anew development project?"

Robin pressed his lips together tightly, a shadow flickering in his eyes. He replied, "I'm really sorrythat I failed to help Alonso Corporation back then. I didn't expect him to do this. As far as I know,that project just started being planned a few months ago.

From design to planning, it was all him, and no one else was involved. Seems like, he had thismove planned out all along.

He knew that the Harper Group would eventually fall into my hands, and even knew that the Alonsofamily would seek help from the Harper family in their time of trouble, so he used the money for theproject in advance. Despite his young age, he plays a deep game. He pushed things forwardwithout a ripple, leaving no way out for others."

He never thought his nephew had any particular talent, but now, some of his actions really put fearin him. Such a sharp-minded junior was hard to ignore.

Hearing his words, Cole just smiled. "No matter how smart Damon is, without the Harper family, hewon't be able to achieve anything significant. Even if he has the ability to start over, the smart oneswon't give him that chance, right?"

Robin smiled, "My nephew, he's just too hot-headed. But he's young, it's good for him to go throughsome things."

Cole chuckled, "Yeah, you guys should knock him down a peg or two. Talking big about going all outagainst the Harper Group is one thing, but actually doing it? That's not gonna be a walk in the park.From what I see, his mind is all on women these days. How would he have time to go against theHarper Group?"

After saying goodbye to Cole, Robin stood at the door of Harper's Mansion for a long time.

Perhaps Cole was right! Without the Harper Group, Damon was nothing. Even if he had great abilityand wanted to start over, there was no way Robin was going to let that happen.

But given Presley's recent mindset and attitude, it seemed he always had an important position inthe Harper family. The power to control the Harper family was still in Damon's hands. If one dayPresley really summoned Damon back, then the Harper Group was surely his again. He needed toreplace a way to eliminate Presley's thoughts about Damon.

Chloe won the lawsuit but pissed off the public. On top of that, Damon temporarily blocked negativecomments about Chloe online, and now the online sentiment was almost entirely against Chloe.

Those who were neutral or supported Chloe before had started to change their position to someextent.

In just an afternoon, the negative comments Damon had just removed popped up again likemushrooms after the rain. Damon read some of the comments online with a serious expression. Hecouldn't help but log into his account, ready to personally respond, only to have his phone snatchedaway halfway.

"Alright, if looking at this bothers you, then don't.” Chloe, in her pajamas, leaned against Damon'sback, rested her chin on his shoulder, glanced at the comments on his phone, and smirkedmockingly.

Damon held her waist tightly, pulled her in front of him, and trapped her in his arms, a cold angerflickering in his eyes. "You see what they've said about you? And you still have a smile on yourface?!"

His voice wasn't loud, but it was like a low drumbeat, enough to shake one's heart.

Chloe's smile deepened. "You probably haven't seen me get slammed worse, have you? When therumor in school was that I stole Keira's perfume formula and that I seduced the judges in thecompetition, how much nasty stuff have I been through? These are only visible, but unheard, andcompared to back then, these are nothing!"

Damon's face was still gloomy.

"Their words can't come true; it's not like they can achieve whatever they say. If that were the case,they would have made their fortunes and become the richest people in the world by now.

They can swear at me all they want, but they are not living better than me. These insignificantwords, you dont have to take them to heart."

Damon looked gloomy, reached out, and gently poked her forehead. "Don't you think you'recontradicting yourself? Who was it that asked me to help deal with these comments thisafternoon?!"

Chloe smiled, "It was me, but I suddenly felt like letting those people who I always bully have somefun. This is a good opportunity to let them vent a bit. Or else they might hold it in for too long, can'tvent, get anxious, and hire a hitman to get rid of me in secret. Wouldn't that be more troublesome?Who knew you were so gung-ho, I just thought about backing out, and you've already

handled half of it."

Damon stared at her for a long time, then suddenly sneered. "What do you mean ‘handled half of it}Chloe, you obviously set me up!"

Chloe shook her head, "I didn't..."

Damon, "Say that again?"

Chloe nodded, "Okay, maybe a little."

Damon laughed, "Because of your stunt, this hot topic is about to be dominated by us two. Neverthought I'd be an internet sensation because of you one day."

Chloe, "Such a rare opportunity, for you, and surely for others too..."

Chloe winked, her eyes full of cunning. It's hard for anyone to guess what she's thinking.

Damon raised an eyebrow, then the anger in his eyes faded, and he said lightly, "Fine. Let's go withyour plan, as long as you're happy."

Chloe looked at him with a touched expression, "Why are you so good to me?"

He asked, "What do you think?"

Chloe thought for a moment, then said, "You must've been keeping a mistress out there and feelingguilty towards me. That's why you've been so lenient with me... No... Stop... that tickles... I’m sorry...

Before Chloe could even finish her sentence, Damon's hands were already kneading her waist andthe crook of her arm. He deliberately chose Chloe's most sensitive areas to tease. He said, "Go on,I want to hear about this mistress of mine. What's her name? How stunning is she?"

Chloe, "Quit fooling around... I'm sorry...

Right on cue, Damon stopped, released his grip, and carried her to the bed. He said, "If you're doneplaying, then go to sleep!"

Chloe lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling, and said, "Let me think, what moves will Ms. Wendymake at tomorrow's business banquet?"

With a blink of an eye, Chloe rolled over, climbed onto Damon's belly. and asked with a smile. "Areyou considered a tycoon now?"
