Chapter 1743

Damon strode over, looking down at her from a taller vantage point.

Chloe flicked her eyes at him, mouth full of apple.

“What’s the matter?”

Damon observed her apple–juice–glossed lips, his eyes narrowing imperceptibly

The crunchy sound of apple came from her mouth, the swallowing sound was natural and ordinary,but to Damon, it was bloody adorable.c2

“Is it good?”

Chloe nodded, “Delicious.”

“Do you know today is Christmas?”

Chloe paused mid–chew, her eyes darting, then she nodded.

“I know.”

“Do you know what day it was yesterday?”

Chloe paused again, looking down at the apple in her hand, suddenly feeling like she was chewingwax.

If today was Christmas, then yesterday…

Wasn’t it Christmas Eve?

So, this apple, was it Damon’s Christmas Eve gift to her?

But

she hadn’t prepared anything for him, what should she do?

Her face revealed a hint of confusion, her bright eyes flickered, suddenly lighting up with amischievous glint.

She lifted her hand, offering the half–eaten apple to Damon.

“Lucky for you, there’s still half left. Here, you can have it.”

Damon looked down at the apple in front of him, his face a picture of resignation.

“Are you giving me back the apple I gave to you?”

“If something is given to me, doesn’t that make it mine?”

Chloe said matter–of–factly. But seeing Damon’s slight displeasure, she thought for a moment, tookanother bite of the apple, then knelt up on the bed, wrapped her arms around Damon’s neck, andoffered him the apple in her mouth.

All he had to do was open his mouth and take a bite from the edge.

However, he seemed to have anticipated her intentions. As soon as she rose, he wrapped his armsaround her waist and dipped down to meet her halfway.

Chloe was taken aback.

At times like this, he always reacted the fastest.

The apple disappeared somehow, ending up in his mouth.

His lips left hers swollen, and he seemed less than satisfied when he finally let her go.

“The apple is yours, but you are mine.”

Chloe sighed and resignedly sat down on the bed.

“Whatever you say, I mean, we already have babies together. Can I even back out now?”

A somewhat dangerous voice sounded from above her, “Are you thinking of backing out?”

Chloe quickly shook her head, looking up at him earnestly, “No, absolutely not.

Damon gave her a faint glance, “Get up, let’s have breakfast.”

“Okay.”

Chloe was evidently used to Damon making breakfast.

During the meal, she kept complimenting Damon’s culinary skills.

For dinner, Chloe was bundled up by Daman, and they headed out.

“What are we doing?”

Damon said nonchalantly, “We’re going on a date.”

Chloe, her lips hidden under her scarf, curved into a smile.

“Where to?”

“Shopping, playing, and eating”

He had thought about it all night. A date for a wornan often included these things.

Chapter 1743

If they could try all the best spots for shopping, playing, and eating in Y Country, this Christmaswould be perfect.

Damon’s words clearly had an effect on Chloe.

Although she didn’t know the specifics, she had a feeling that as long as Damon was with her, itwould be interesting no matter where they went.

However, d

ue to her pregnancy, all the thrilling games, and even a large portion of the food, were off–limits toher.

In fact, she found it interesting just to wander around, but pregnancy was indeed a delicate job.

More importantly, as a princess who had just returned to the royal family, appearing in public was abit more exhausting than usual.

After a short walk, she was already tired.

Damon’s complexion was equally grim. As someone inherently preferring a quiet and simple life,being pursued and surrounded by so many people significantly affected his mood.

Seeing Chloe’s struggling, he simply bent down and picked her up, striding through the crowd with astern expression.

This action naturally elicited a lot of screams from the crowd.

It seemed their appearance was more attractive than any amusement park attraction.

Their amusement park date was somewhat unsuccessful.

Exhausted as they were, they couldn’t even consider shopping.

Their shopping spree was a defeat without a fight.

In the end, only eating was left.

This was also the most crucial part. Chloe had been craving food recently and had a good appetite,so Damon planned to satisfy her cravings this time, b ut he overestimated Chloe’s stomach.

After dining at two popular restaurants in Y Country, Chloè, clutching her belly, surrendered.

“Do you still want to eat, Damon? I can’t anymore, I’m so full, I feel like I have another baby in mybelly.”

Damon’s expression was quite unpleasant, “Let’s go home.”

Today’s Christmas date plan was a complete failure.

Mr. Harper wasn’t pleased, but Chloe was satisfied.

After all, they did a lot of things she’d never tried before, within their physical capabilities. For her, itwas more than satisfying.

It was only about three in the afternoon when they returned to the hotel. After settling Chloe in,Damon left again.

Chloe had no idea what he was up to.

After resting for a while, Chloe got up from the bed, checked the time, and dialed Rose.

The video call was quickly connected, and Rose’s pretty face soon filled Chloe’s screen.

“Merry Christmas.”

Rose was sitting on a chair, and when she heard Chloe’s words, she couldn’t help but laugh,leaning back against the chair.

“Merry Christmas. It seems like you’re having a good holiday; you look especially cheerful.”

Chloe smiled. As she was about to speak, she noticed the wall behind Rose.

Her brow furrowed, “Where are you?”

Rose’s eyes flickered, she sighed, and turned her phone around to show her surroundings.

“At the office”

Sensing Chloe’s concern, she added:

“It’s the end of the year, isn’t it? All the department’s quarterly reports need to be checked in detail,and the Commerce Bureau needs to be notified for review. We can’t afford any mistakes. Don’tworry, I won’t push myself too hard. Besides, being alone at home is boring.”

Alone.

Chloe pursed her lips,” You really shouldn’t push yourself too hard. And you should really hire ahousekeeper.”

Rose gave a small shake of her head, “Not for now, I like my solitude. Having a nanny around wouldmean constant chatter. Don’t worry about me. I get my medical check–ups regularly, and they’ve allcome back with satisfying result. Your future son–in–law is growing healthily.”

Seeing the light in Rose’s eyes at the mention of her baby, Chloe managed a small smile.

Take good care of yourself. After New Year’s day, I’ll fly back to be with you. Anything that comesup, make sure to let me know, okay? Don’t push yourself in any way

Rose chuckled, “Yes, your Highness.”

The two friends chatted briefly before ending the call.

Throughout their conversation, they only discussed matters between them. Even the topic ofChristmas, Chloe did not bring it up again.

However, facing Rose who had a lover yet had to work during Christmas, Chloe didn’t know what tosay to cheer her up.

Chapter 1743

Thinking back now, Morrison was not the type of man to propose celebrating Christmas with Rose.

“Jerk.”

She uttered the word, her face darkened.

She was genuinely upset for Rose.

As night fell, Chloe stood in her hotel room, overlooking the city.

The neon lights twinkled in various forms, enhancing the festive cheer that was absent the daybefore.

Checking the time, it was already seven o’clock.

Chloe rubbed her belly, letting out a sigh.

“Sweethearts, are you two eating too much? Thank goodness your dad’s wealthy, or else I wouldn’tbe able to afford you.”

Yep.

Chloe was hungry again.

She conveniently blamed her hunger on the two innocent babies in her belly.

Naturally, she felt no guilt.

“But where is your dad? He’s been out the whole afternoon, and there’s no sign of him.”

She patted her stomach with a hint of complaint just as her phone rang.

It was Damon.

“Where are you?”

Damon cut to the chase, “I’m downstairs. Get dressed and come down. I’ll take you to…”

“Alright, I’m coming!”

Before Damon could finish his sentence, Chloe interrupted him, and hung up the call.

Ten minutes later, Chloe successfully found Damon in the hotel lobby.

Seeing her properly dressed, Damon took her hand and headed towards the exit,

Chloe assumed that Damon was planning to take her out for a sumptuous meal, b

ecause it was dinner time after all.

However, Damon led her to the hotel’s outdoor plaza. Before them stood a towering Christmas tree,almost ten meters high. She could vaguely see some decorations on it.

Just as she was about to comment on the lack of fairy lights, her eyes were suddenly flooded withdazzling lights.

The massive Christmas tree before them lit up suddenly, its height equivalent to a three or four–story building. Chloe’s mouth fell open in surprise.

Looking up to the top of the tree, she saw, high above the Christmas tree, one star, two stars, threestars. One after another, countless stars gradually lit up, covering the vast hotel plaza.

Standing beneath it, they were gazing at a starry sky.

Chloe looked up at the endless array of star–shaped lights, a sense of surprise and warmthwashing over her.

She knew very well that all of this was Damon’s doing.

She turned to look at the man next to her, “Did you spend the whole afternoon arranging this?”

Damon’s voice was slightly tense, “Our date during the day was a disaster.”

Chloe shook her head, “I’ve never properly celebrated Christmas before, today was more thanenough.”

“I can give you more!

Chloe wrapped her arms around his neck.

“This might be the most unforgettable Christmas of my life.”

Damon held her close, “Next time, I’ll make it even better.”

Nate, watching froma distance, wiped his sweat, watching the two lovebirds, he turned his headaway, unable to bear the sight.

The two of them were rather boring and cliched.

These Christmas surprises were honestly quite tacky.

Didn’t they feel embarrassed?

Was she really that moved?

Chapter 1743

was she so receptive to these cliched arrangements?

It felt like watching two love fools in a relationship.

Their future seemed concerning in Nate’s eyes.

Nate let out a long sigh

He shook his head and covered his face with his hands.

He was the typical rookie player looking down on a lower level player.

He didn’t even have a girlfriend, yet he was criticizing others for their poor dating skills.

However, despite the cliched nature of the surprise, it was indeed a large–scale project.

It seemed like he could finally relax for the day.

Time to go home, take a shower, and sleep.

Damon’s arrangement unsurprisingly attracted many people. Couples arrived one after another, andthe surprised and envious chatter of the women filled the air, causing a sudden influx of people intothe square.

If there were food stalls on either side, it would look like a fair.

Chloe stood on her tiptoes and pecked Damon’s lips.

Damon wasn’t satisfied with her light kiss, but just as he was about to lean in for more, Chloepushed him away.

Damon raised an eyebrow at her

Chloe rubbed fier belly, “It’s all your son and daughter’s fault, I’m hungry.”

Damon was speechless.

Fortunately, he had already prepared a Christmas dinner.

So he calmly led Chloe into the hotel restaurant.

After a satisfying meal, Chloe wanted to return to the plaza, but Damon dismissed the idea.

The night was too cold; that was his reason.

After Christmas, the princess’s coronation became the highly anticipated event.

The palace was preparing for the event in full swing, with representatives from all over the worldarriving to congratulate Queen Julia and to catch a glimpse of the royal princess.

In the final two–day countdown, Nathan, Kane, and others suddenly arrived in Y Country and foundChloe and Damon in their hotel.

They insisted on attending the coronation, and Queen Julia naturally made the best arrangements.

Chloe was in the palace at the moment, going over the specifics of the coronation process onceagain.

Queen Julia was meeting with ambassadors from various countries, leaving Yasmine and Chloealone.

Queen Julia’s study had essentially become Yasmine’s personal space.

Chloe was lounging on the couch, her expression nonchalant as she looked at Yasmine and said,

“Rumors have been swirling around the palace lately, saying that grandmother intends to step downand put you on the throne.”

Yasmine put down the folder in her hand, “I had the same suspicion.”

“What about you? What’s your plan?”

1 see your grandmother is quite pleased with you as well.”

Chloe scoffed, “Sorry to burst your bubble, but I’m already married. Now, I am taking Damon’s lastname, which doesn’t seem appropriate if I am about to take her position.”

Yasmine scoffed back, “Maybe Damon could consider taking your last name.”
