Chapter 1782
“The Harper family isn’t short of houses” Damon’s voice abruptly deepened, his gaze fixated on the collection of keys in Chloe’s hand. Chloe nervously clutched them closer
to her chest
She’d accept them later, any excuse from Stanley would do. Why not take something that was being given freely?
Stanley gave Damon a disdainful look hands tucked in his pockets, chin lifted arrogantly. “You think I’m a fool? I’m busy every day Who knows when I won’t be by your

Silence fell over the room. Soon after, Alyssa, Elizabeth, and Rose nodded in agreement. “That’s right, Stanley is thoughtful”
Damon’s face turned sour if it wasn’t for Chloe holding onto his arm, he would have jumped up and given Stanley a good beating c2
“Give the keys back to him‘ Damon glared at her
Chloe clutched the keys, shaking her head in protest Who wouldn’t want these many houses that were being given freely?
“Chloe”
Chloe was firm No. He’s night. Who knows what might happen in the future?”
Damon’s face tightened, Chloe could see the veins bulging from his forehead. She softened her tone, “Why not take it if it’s free?”

“it’s not the same What you give is mine, and what he gives is extra. If you give me a hundred dollars, I have a hundred dollars. If he gives me a hundred dollars, I have two hundred dollars.”
Alyssa nodded on the side, “Damon, you’re too domineering. The Meister family’s kid is far–sighted and considerate. He’s giving it to Chloe, not you, and it’s not your money he’s spending. Why are you trying to control him or Chloe? If I were Chloe, I would also want it! Look at me, when I got married back then, didn’t we also make a promise to never abandon each other? And now, arent we divorced? You solemnly believe you won’t betray Chloe right now, but who knows what will happen in the following decades?”
Damon’s brow furrowed deeply. “I just won’t”
Alyssa emphasized. “It’s the current you that won’t”
Elizabeth nodded in agreement. “You just yelled at Chloe You’re starting to show your true colors; who knows what you could do in the future?”
Damon was speechless. What kind of mother was this?
“Chloe don’t listen to him. I strongly suggest you accept
Rose chimed in, “I second that”
Chloe gripped the keys tighter
Damon, knowing he couldn’t convince Chloe, turned to Stanley. “Take your stuff and get out, otherwise, no matter how much you give her III destroy it.”
Stanley, unbothered, reached into his pocket and pulled out a black card. “This is for you too. Globally valid, no limit, spend it however you want
