The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Chapter 1048

His existence had left people flabbergasted. They couldn’t figure out who the heck this fiancé of hers was.

Particularly considering that this fiancé entered her life after she had just broken up with Lance after dating him for a long time…

“I knew I’d run into Chloe at Rose and Morrison’s wedding! They were best buds back in school!”

“I would’ve never guessed that Rose and Morrison would end up together. I mean, remember when… Morrison and Mona…”

Chloe looked at the person across from her with a cold gaze that hinted danger. The speaker stopped abruptly.

“Anyway, compared to Mona, Rose and Morrison are a much better match.”

“Hey Chloe, heard you’re getting hitched? Did your husband–to–be come today?”

The question came from a sexy woman with a melodious voice.

She was gorgeous, her makeup flawless. Chloe didn’t know who she was, but women like her could pose a threat to Damon… She worried she might make a move on him. It wasn’t impossible!

Why would she invite trouble?

“He’s a busy man,” Chloe responded with a smile.

“Really? What does he do?”

Chloe didn’t answer, instead taking the glass of water that Dewey handed her.

She smiled at him. Everyone else was drinking alcohol, but he offered her water. It was a testament to his thoughtfulness.

“He had a business engagement today,” she answered nonchalantly.
