Chapter 1780

When Grandma returned home, her mood was quite sour Chloe noticed and felt a twinge ofcuriosity, but with the day’s events still fresh in her mind, she refrained from asking what was wrongIf it was about the divorce, it was best not to probe

Alyssa chatted with everyone in the living room for a while but wasn’t feeling well. She went into

mom to rest

“What’s wrong with Grandma? Didn’t she go to Robin’s place? Did Robin upset her?”

Elizabeth sighed deeply “More or less. Even though Robin has given up his shares, he still feels theneed for some personal growth, so he applied to go to the U Country to help the Harper familyexpand their market. Who knows when we’ll see him again. Grandma is not happy. She thinks at hisage, he shouldn’t be so busy around but should be home with her”

Upon hearing this Chloe furrowed her brows slightly. She glanced at Royce next to her and saidsoftly. “Is that so? Well, if Robin’s made his choice, there isn’t much we can do. No one wants to livea mediocre life forever ‘c2

Elizabeth nodded, “Exactly that’s what he thinks too. He is stubborn just like his father”

Chloe smiled but didn’t continue the conversation

Later, Royce accompanied Elizabeth upstairs, leaving Chloe alone in the living room. After a while,she checked the time, and saw that Rose was still asleep. She stood up. feeling a bit bored

The weather outside was lovely, the afternoon sun felt particularly warm and comforting She put onher coat and went outside for a stroll

Living in Greenfield Village for so long, she still hadn’t explored the entire estate In fact, she didn’tdare to venture too far out, fearing she might not have the energy to

return

Halfway there, she ran into Nate who was busy washing cars with a few others. Several high–endcars were parked nearby, undoubtedly the spare ones from the estate.

Chloe stood by, quietly watching them for a while.

The atmosphere among the men was more relaxed than usual, but the matters at hand were stillbeing dealt with efficiently

Nate saw Chloe and quickly wiped his hands before running over “Maam

Chloe smiled, observing Nate as he took off his suit jacket, leaving only a shirt. He rolled up hissleeves, and there was a hint of sweat on his face. She couldn’t help but think that this man was fullof vitality.

“Are you washing the cars?”

Nate nodded. “Yeah, these cars haven’t been used for a few days. I took them out for a spin withthe guys and thought we’d give them a wash since the weather is nice‘

Chloe nodded and changed the subject, “I don’t usually see you around when you’re free. It’s rareto see you with nothing to do.”

Nate chuckled awkwardly. “Well, I can’t always be busy. There were indeed a lot of things going onrecently”

Chloe paused for a moment, then continued, “Nate, I didn’t see Robin in court today. Damon toldme that some of the incidents I’ve experienced were orchestrated by Robin You knew all about this,didn’t you?”

Nate didn’t hesitate to nod, “Yes, I did.”

“Then you also knew about Robin relinquishing his thirty percent stake”

Nate looked a bit uneasy but nodded. “Madam What do you mean?”

Chloe could not help but laugh at his reaction, “Am I really that scary? I am just having a chat withyou”

Nate scratched his head awkwardly. He knew Chloe’s capabilities, a few words from her could leavesomeone speechless.

“Madam, how can you be scary?”

“Exactly” Chloe replied nonchalantly ‘One thing I don’t understand is why Robin decided to go to theU Country? Did he request it, was he forced, or did someone suggest

Nate exhaled in relief, “It’s just an excuse He can’t really leave the country”

Chloe raised her brow. “What do you mean?”.

“Because of the plane crash and the other incidents, including the journalist who interviewed you atthe airport. We caught the imposter journalist. Do you know he almost got killed that night? He ledus to uncover a senes of illegal activities by Mr Robin. Even though Rubin is part of the Harperfamily, he can’t escape the law.”

“Of course, the key point is that Mr. Damon won’t let him off easily. If it weren’t for Mr. Robin “Natepaused, his expression conflicted

Chloe looked at him, “What is it?”

Nate sighed, hesitated for a few seconds, and then said reluctantly. “Initially, Mr. Robin pleaded withMr. Damon, asking him not to publicize the matter. Traves is in the military and is at a crucial point inhis career Presley and Alyssa are also not getting any younger, and if they found out Mr. Robinattempted to kill his own brother, it might be too much for them”

“In the end. Mr. Damon, being the man he is, couldn’t be entirely heartless. Travis is innocent, andwho wouldn’t want their grandparents to be healthy and live a long t Mr Damon agreed not to makethe matter public”

Chloe pursed her lips slowly nodding. So you’re telling me, Robin isn’t going to the U Country, buthe’s been sentenced to prison?”

Nate nodded. Life imprisonment

A pang in Chloe’s heart. She thought about how Alyssa had been upset just knowing Robin wasgoing to the U Country, this news could completely break her

Life imprisonment

She took a deep breath. “Presley doesn’t know about this, does he?”

Nate nodded. “Yes, it was Mr Robin himself who first proposed to return the shares. He didn’t sayanything else, and he’s keeping it all a secret. So, ma am.

“I know” Chloe accepted Nate’s concerns Naturally, she knew keeping it a secret was the bestchoice.

Nate breathed a sigh of relief.

Chloe ended up visiting the alpaca alone.

Chapter 1780

Damon had hired someone to take care of it. Every time she visited it, it seemed like it had becomea bit stronger than the last time. Its fur was clean and white, its head was neatly groomed, and ithad a pair of big eyes with thick, black eyelashes. It always had a smiling face, looking cute nomatter how you looked at it

She found it particularly funny that this was a gift from Damon when he was courting her. It wasinitially a joke, but he took it seriously and had Nate deliver it to the company Probably no one elsein the world would give such a unique gift

She picked up a branch with green leaves on it from the side and fed it, watching it eat with graceand pride She stroked its chubby cheeks. “You should thank me You’re probably the happiestalpaca in the world. Even some people don’t live as comfy as you, you know”

The alpaca raised its neck slightly as if it was even more proud

Chloe chuckled, fed it some more, and as if remembering something, suddenly turned to thecaretaker next to her, “Is it male or female?”

The caretaker quickly said. “Male”

Chloe nodded. Should we replace it a mate

The caretaker paused somewhat amused, “Of course, that can be arranged”

Chloe chuckled took a deep breath, and turned back the way she came

Halfway there she saw Damon not far off. Upon seeing her, he strode towards her.

“Hey Chloe greeted him with a smile

Damon furrowed his brows. “Where have you been?”

Chloe pointed backwards, “To see the alpaca By the way. I have something to tell you”

“Forget it” Damon cut her off, ‘Robin broke the law, that’s undisputed I’ve made the biggestconcession. He should be thankful I even acknowledge him as my uncle”

Chloe gaped at him, surprised, guessing Nate had tattled on her

That Nate, such a brown–noser Could they even have a pleasant chat in the future?

“I just wanted to tell you about replaceing a mate for the alpaca What does it have to do with Robin?”

This time, Damon was the one who paused “Finding a mate for the alpaca

Chloe nodded, looked at him for a few seconds, then suddenly chuckled ‘Did you think I was goingto plead for Robin? Do you think I’m that kind?”

Tm a lawful citizen, and this is a country of law. It’s natural to face consequences for breaking thelaw What’s more, what Robin did to me is not something I can forgive. At most, I feel sorry forAlyssa, but that’s a separate issue. My sympathy for her has nothing to do with whether Robinserves his sentence. He’s an adult who has ruined not only his own life but also the lives of manyothers. And he expects forgiveness? That’s impossible. I’m not some saint. I don’t have a halo toshine on the world.”

She patted Damon’s shoulder, ‘Sorry to disappoint you”

Damon glanced at her, “No need for apologies. Why the long speech?”

Chloe choked up

“Are you saying this for me or for yourself?”

Chloe was left speechless, her expression slightly stiff.

Damon took her hand, “You don’t need to feel guilty or try to comfort me. Everything you said iscorrect. Robin doesn’t need anyone else’s sympathy or forgiveness. If he chose to do it, he shouldbear the consequences. It’s his own business and has nothing to do with anyone else”

Chloe raised an eyebrow. “That’s exactly what I meant, why are you repeating my words?

Damon smirked, leading her back towards the villa “Happy wife, happy life”

Chloe grinned She rubbed her belly. “I think it’s getting bigger

Damon smiled. “Let me check when we get home”

With Rose by her side, Chloe had no chance to think about anything extra

Hannah probably comforted Alyssa a lot, and with Elizabeth and the other two by her side, shegradually got better

Everyone in the house knew about the Robin situation, but not many knew the details. And Damon,Chloe, and Royce were smart enough to keep certain things from

grandmother

The women had plenty to chat about, sometimes they’d play a round of poker while chatting.

The men usually became decorations in these scenarios. Sometimes when Royce and Damon hadsome free time and wanted to spend time with their wives, they found no opportunity The two wouldeither smoke outside or stay in the study

The two of them had nothing to say so Damon filled him in on the development history of ObsidianCorporation, what he remembered and made up

Royce shared his experience managing the Harper family for those years, seventy percent of whichwas about his wife, Elizabeth

In just a few days, the father and son found themselves in the study, silent for a long time, feelingthey had nothing to say

Royce ‘Being with you is really boring”

Damon. Yes, we definitely are father and son

Apparently, after a few days, the two of them started to get on each other’s nerves. The twoexchanged glances

Two minutes later, they both looked away, sighing in unison, their faces full of sonow

“How much can they possibly have to talk about?”

“I don’t know”

Father and son exchanged a look, both feeling like they had encountered the most perplexingenigma in the history of mankind. What secrets did women harbor in their minds?

Occasionally, they attempted to join the women’s ‘gossip clubs,” but such attempts invariablyresulted in confusion. Every discussion was about something different

The women were like walking encyclopedias, capable of engaging in deep conversation aboutanything, and they always seemed to know everything. This would inevitably plunge the men into adeep pool of self doubt.

Chapter 1780

By the time they managed to decipher their conversations in their own way, the women had alreadymoved on to a new topic.

The two men heaved a sigh once again.

Finally, Royce said, I’ve been with your mom for thirty years, and I’ve never once been bored. Howis it that after just a few days with you, I’m already feeling bored? You’re still young. It might be agood idea to take a hard look at yourself and figure out what you’re not doing right.”
