The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Chapter 1038

After Chloe clocked out, she went grocery shopping and then headed back to Emerald Valley Estates with Rose.

When Damon got home, Rose was lounging on the living room couch, watching TV and munching on a pear. Upon seeing Damon, Rose cracked a grin so wide it was borderline uncomfortable.

“You’re back?”

Damon’s icy gaze told a different story. He’d been giving Chloe the cold shoulder, seemingly waiting for her reaction. He took off his coat without saying a word and made a beeline for the kitchen.

Rose shrugged and took another big bite of her pear. Despite her dissatisfaction with Damon’s attitude, she was enjoying the moment.

The sound of running water echoed from the kitchen. Chloe was washing dishes. She smelled his familiar scent and was about to turn around when she felt him close in behind her, wrapping his arms around her waist, resting his head on top of hers, and letting out a soft sigh.

Chloe finished washing the dishes, turned off the water, and turned around in his arms to look up at him.

Up close, his face was striking. What a charmer.

“Why are you here?”

Damon pinched her waist, holding her tightly, looking down at her with a pitiful look in his eyes.

“Did you miss me?”

His tone suggested that if she didn’t admit to missing him, he was on the verge of bursting into tears. But he’d had a big fight with Stanley yesterday, and if she gave in now, he’d be a lost cause.)

Chloe replied casually, “Did you guys mess up Twitter’s system?”

Damon’s expression faltered, a hint of guilt flashing across his eyes.

“No, we helped them fix a bunch of bugs.”
