Damon: “Enough

ith your jokes.”

tell

“So, if I don’t

any, you won’t be mad?”

Damon looked at her, sussing out her little scheme.

Was she threatening him with bad jokes?

Chuckling lightly, he suddenly got up, scooping her up in his arms.c2

Chloe gasped, “What are you doing?”

“Letting you know what’s truly toxic.”

Chloe shook her head, “No, no need. I already know. I don’t want to replace out more.”

Damon smirked, “There’s something even more toxic.

Chloe paused, starting to struggle in his arms, “No, I don’t want it. If you’re going to play dirty, I’llkeep telling you bad jokes.”

Damon slightly swayed his tall figure.

He couldn’t even begin to imagine what the scene would look like.-

Her telling bad jokes while getting fucked?

This standoff seemed evenly matched, both stubborn and unyielding, b

ut it turned out that Chloe was slightly outmatched by Damon in certain ways.

She wanted to spurt out the bad jokes in her head, but Damon clearly wouldn’t give her the chance.

“If you get mad again, I won’t care anymote.”

Chloe weakly protested, annoyed at her defeat.

Damon smirked, “I can seek comfort myself.“.

Chloe stirred slightly, the sound of her discarded phone ringing in the background.

She moved again, Damon’s deep voice following after..

Realizing it was her phone ringing, she slowly crawled from beneath the covers, leaning on theheadboard, watching Damon.

Damon handed her the phone.

“Hello?”

“Your Highness, your coronation dress and jewelry are ready. When would you like to come try themon? We can make adjustments if needed.”

Chloe brushed her hair, glancing outside.

It was still early.

“Alright, I’ll come soon.”

“Very well.”

Hanging up, Chloe placed her phone to the side, her hand resting on her slightly protruding belly.

After a while, she slipped out of bed.

By then, Damon had returned with her clothes.

‘T’ll take you.”

As soon as they reached the hotel lobby, people recognized her.

Their enthusiasm was a bit overwhelming.

“Princess, we’re looking forward to your coronation.”

“Congratulations on your safe return.”

“Evil won’t prevail for long. Ava got what she deserved.”

A frown creased Chloe’s forehead. These issues, that name, she didn’t want to hear any of it.

It was a mood killer.

Damon escorted Chloe into their car.

People outside the hotel were taking pictures, huddling together, whispering. But Chloe knew that ithad to be about her, Ava and Barbara.

Thinking about those people put a damper on her otherwise good mood.

“I thought you’d play along for a while longer You ended it so abruptly. Are you truly content?”

Chloe shook her head, “No. Ava is a person who doesn’t deserve mercy She’s responsible formultiple deaths. She caused my mother’s current condition, and she even attempted to murder her.If I could, I would’ve liked to torture her. But the situation is different. Barbara and Becky are royalblood. If this dragged on, my grandmother would have second thoughts.

“Moreover, New Year’s is coming. Before I left last time, Ava bribed hospital staff for a fake paternitytest. Although I had Jane prepared, I guessed they would try to stir trouble at the coronation.Catching them in the act would’ve been satisfying, but…”

Chloe took a deep breath, sighing heavily, “When I think about it, there hasn’t been peace recently. Inever got to properly attend any event. I just want this coronation to be simple, without any hiccups.I can’t give them any more opportunities to cause trouble.

“More importantly, I am pregnant now. The longer it goes on, the more uncertain I am whether theymight target us. The longer they stay, the more risk there is for me and my babies. The outcome willbe the same anyway. Ending it earlier would mean early relief for me.”

Damon nodded, “Yeah. Every extra day they’re around, you’d have to see them. It would be hard totell whether you’re nauseous because of them or morning sickness; either way, it’s a headache.”

Chloe agreed with him.

She truly admired this man i

n every aspect.

Even his insults were unique.

“End it sooner, return home to prepare for the babies. Be a good wife and mother.”

Chloe couldn’t help but laugh at this.

He always managed to remind her of his presence.

Preparing for the babies was one thing, but she also had to be a good wife.

“What’s so funny?”

“Nothing. Just wondering how I should be a wife to you.”

Suddenly, Ava and her mother were forgotten, her mood lightened by Damon’s words.

By the time she realized it, they arrived at their destination.

Everything happened without her noticing, just like before. How many times had he done this in thepast?

Probably many times.

After all, she knew how considerate and thoughtful he was.

The coronation started at the palace, riding in Y Country’s symbolic carriage around the city,returning to the palace where she would be crowned in front of all Y Country’s citizens, a nationwidecelebration.

The dress was exquisite and luxurious, and to avoid any mishaps, it was delivered directly to thepalace.

Queen Julia, Yasmine, William, and Brisa were all there.

After the recent events and learning about Chloe’s past, Brisa no longer held her previousreservations.

When Chloe arrived, she helped the designer dress her in the coronation gown.

“Thank you for everything. If it wasn’t for you, I fear I would’ve been under Ava’s control all my life,never replaceing peace.

Chloe extended her arms, as the designer and his assistant helped her into the dress.

“Don’t thank me. Helping you was never a selfless act. Your baby is innocent, and also of royaltyblood. That’s part of why I’m doing this. But mostly, I’m doing it because you’re a thorn in Ava’s side.She’s using your unborn baby against me, and I can use your pregnancy against her. So, save yourthanks.”

She had never been one to accept borrowed kindness, and the mere thought of it made her cringe.

Brisa smirked, “You don’t have to be so honest. Why make yourself out to be the bad guy?”

Chloe chuckled, “Being good is hard, you know. I might not go out of my way to hurt people, but thatdoesn’t mean I won’t. I hold grudges, I’m vindictive, and I can be ruthless. So it’s best not to crossme. If you piss me off, I will retaliate. Can a good person do that on a whim? No, a good personcould do 99 good things, but the one wrong move they make, and it’s all for nothing. But a badperson is different. Even if they

ven if they do o one good thing, they might be remembered for a lifetime.”

She spoke in a light, casual tone, with a subtle smile on her face, b

ut something about it sent a chill down Brisa’s spine.

Chloe didn’t say anything more.

Her message was clear.

The royal palace, wealth, power and influence – they could change a person.

She couldn’t be sure that Brisa would remain just William’s wife in the palace.

There was an Ava before, and within the palace, there were many people with various ulteriormotives. She needed to make her position clear. Brisad better toe the line, or Chloe wouldn’t let itslide.

A good person?
