Even after Her Death (Chloe and Luke)

Chapter 460 I Want to Marry Him Properly

Watching such an obedient man getting on his knees before me, I felt a bit uncomfortable.

Damian, please don't do this. I know you were forced to it back then. Stand up."

*7. Finished

Damian looked at Carter with tearful eyes, while Carter stared down at him, silent.

"You knew how much Chloe means to me, yet you kept this from me and did what you did," Carter said coldly.

"Mr. Carter, I'm sorry."

"Even though you knew Yael wouldn't harm Chloe, do you think I could live with myself if something happened to her? If she died, could I survive that?"

Carter's eyes were as cold as ice. "Damian, I can forgive a lot of betrayals, but not when it comes to Chloe. Be grateful she wasn't hurt, or I wouldn't let you go so easily."

He pulled out a check. "You've been with me for years. I've arranged for your sister to go to a prestigious school. With her talents, she'll have a bright future. Aunt Amber and I will help her. Take this money and start fresh somewhere you like." I glanced at the check-it was for 100 million.

It was enough for Damian to buy a house and live comfortably anywhere. He was capable enough to take care of himself.

Plus, Carter had already given him a decent salary before, so this money felt like a way of closing the chapter on their past.

Damian shook his head. "Mr. Carter, please don't send me away. I just want to stay by yours and Mrs. Zoey's side. I swear I'll never harm her again."

"Once you lose my trust, you become unnecessary. I understand you were trying to protect me, but I can't risk Chloe's life again. You're seriously injured, so take care of yourself from now on. Don't you like flowers? You could open a flower shop, find a girl, and lead a simple, happy life."

Damian wasn't ready to accept this fate. A tough man who had never shed a tear, not even when facing death, now cried like a child.

"Mrs. Zoey, Mr. Carter saved my sister's life. I've done so much wrong, and I haven't repaid him. Please speak up for me. I never meant to hurt you. I was forced into it."

Seeing Damian in tears, I glanced helplessly at Carter.

Carter's main concern was me, and I was the only one who could change his mind.

Clearing my throat, I said, "Well, since Damian wants to help, why not let him stay? I like how he delivers a powerful slap."

Damian quickly added, "Mrs. Zoey, I'll slap anyone you ask me to."

Carter sighed. "Get up. Rest, then come back."

Damian stood up with a smile. "Thank you, Mr. Carter fere's the check back."

Keep it. Consider it as a payinent for your life. No more suicide attempts without my permission!"

Carter said firmly, making me smile. Couldn't he be a tle gentler?

Damian nodded eagerly, accepted the check, and promised to follow the doctor's advice to recover quickly

After visiting him, we left the hospital.

Zoey and Harlan were still in a bit of a mess. But thankfully, nothing serious had happened.

For me, being alive felt like the greatest blessing

Carter and I returned home. This time, Ilidn't have to worry about Zoey suddenly showing up.

He lay on the bed, and I carefully applied medicine to his back.

"Carl, let's go back to Snowville."

Finished

The Sanders would be returning soon. Josh couldn't show up, and they still needed to lay Grandma's ashes to rest in the family tomb. I wanted to be there for Grandma's final journey. Snowville had been my home for 28 years, and I suddenly felt nostalgic.

"Okay."

"Carl, let's get married."

I didn't want to waste time on unnecessary things anymore. Wisteria was gone, and the feud with the Carlyns had ended. My only wish now was to marry Carter.

At first, I pressured him into getting a marriage certificate, and I had my reasons for doing

1. SO.

After everything we'd been through, I knew I wanted to be with him forever.

Even if the wedding was just a formality, I hadn't been able to marry him in my past life. This time, I wanted to marry him properly.

Carter smiled warmly and said, "Alright, I'll follow your lead."

I leaned down and kissed his neck. "Let's have two kids

"How about three?" he responded.

No matter what the future held, we were going to enjoy the present.

After staying in Jaford for a few days, Carter's back had healed enough, so we decided to leave.

As we were heading to the airport, Zoey rushed to catch up. From a distance, I saw her pushing a wheelchair, sparks flying as if it might catch fire.

Harlan's hair was a mess in the wind. "Janice, are you trying to kill your husband again?"

I couldn't help but laugh at Zoey's frantic pace. "Slow down. We still have time,"

Zoey slammed on the brakes, sweat dripping down her face.

"We made it! Harlan's the one to blame for having diarrhea before we left."

*Finished

Harlan blushed. "Hey, don't tell everything. I have my ride too. It's because of that terrible meal you made for me before we left. It gave me a stomach problem all day. If you keep taking care of me like this, I might end up stuck in the hospital for a year. Janice, are you doing this on purpose? You took good care of my grandpa before, but now you're acting like a wild horse with me."

He was starting to question her. At this point, he only thought Zoey was intentionally messing with him.

He had no idea that his once caring wife had changed into a once-heiress who couldn't even cook properly.

Her only skill was turning raw ingredients into something edible.

Zoey didn't respond and kept her gaze on me, pulling me into a tight hug.

"Take care of yourself. Call me if you need anything. No matter where you are, I'll come right away."

With a friend like her, what could I possibly regret?

"Awesome. I'm getting married. Once the invites are ready, I'll make sure to send you one."

Zoey's face brightened. "Make sure the first one goes to me."

"Of course."

"I want to be your bridesmaid as well."

Harlan interjected, "You're already married. Don't be ridiculous."

"Then I'll just get a divorce before that."

He went silent.

I smiled. "No matter what your status is, you and Whitney are still my bridesmaids."

"Alright, it's a deal."

Zoey reached out her hand teasingly. "Let's make a pinky promise."

"Sure."

We linked our pinkies, sharing a smile that only we truly understood, full of relief.noveldrama

"Be happy."

"You too."

As Carter and I were heading toward the gate, Zoey pushed Harlan aside. We could hear them talking behind us.

Harlan sounded suspicious, "Janice, are you hiding something from me?"

Amished

"Yes, I'm hiding the fact that I have ten pretty boys waiting for me. Once you're gone, I'll be with them."

Janice!"

"Stop yelling. You act like an idiot."

Harlan's tone softened. "Janice, stop joking. Come home with me....

Just as Carter and I were about to enter, a tafl figure quickly approached.

Damian, looking a little pale, said, "Mr. Carter, Mrs. Zoey, wait for me."

It was like the moment Zoey and I had parted ways in our soul states. But this time, we were walking in opposite directions with smiles-because we were heading toward happiness.
