Zoey had the banquet hall door behind her.
In her opinion, Joseph was gazing at her.
“Second brother…”
Zoey, cheeks flushed with excitement, walked over to the man with a happy stride.
Suddenly, she was hit with a shocking scent of a rose, bright and flamboyant, yet dangerous and alluring.
Tok, tok, tok…
The sharp, fierce clacking of high heels passed her, and her heart involuntarily tightened. She felt the overpowering presence of that woman, and she could not bring herself to breathe!
Everyone was shocked, and Joseph, his dark eyes deeply locked on Chloe’s delicate and cold face, was even more stunned on the spot.
Her features were like a painting, her face as cold as frost, yet her red lips were like flames, restlessly dancing on the tip of Joseph’s heart.
Chloe was dressed in a tall, low-key black suit.
Her pretty face made her destined to stand out among a group of orioles and swallows, so she could not remain inconspicuous.
Everyone was talking about it; Chloe’s arrival was as devastating as a thunderclap.
Aubree and Skyler shivered upon seeing the uninvited guest break in.
a cry of despair.Suddenly, a low cry of despair escaped from someone, unable to be contained.
“I’m aware of who she is! A while back, some renowned magazines and websites paid her a visit. She is Stefan, the chairman of KS Group’s daughter! Presently, she is the general manager of KS WORLD Hotel!”
“Yes, indeed! I recall! Her name appears to be… Chloe!”
“Is she the one who’s been feuding with Mr. Sawle? She’s gorgeous, but it’s clear she’s not a good person!”
“I’m familiar with the science of physiognomy. This woman has the typical dragon-like eyes and a graceful phoenix-like
neck. Empress of the Tang Dynasty had this kind of look too. Her regal presence is indescribable!”
“I’m not familiar with the deep research you’re discussing. I’m just a pup. All I can tell is that she and Mr. Sawle look great together. Don’t be adversaries, be family!”
Upon hearing the gossip, Joseph’s heart still burned with rage.
Upon hearing the last sentence, his furrowed brows eased slightly.
Inexplicably pleasing to the ear, yet little.
As Chloe walked past Zoey, stealing away all the glory and attention that had been hers, Zoey’s anger was so intense that her soul seemed to leave her body and her eyes turned red.
What made her even more resentful was the intensity of Joseph’s gaze, his eyes burning hot as he stared at Chloe.
In her impression, this man’s eyes had always been dark and dismal.
She had never seen him look at any woman with such a passionate and warm gaze.
Did he still hold her in his heart?
Did he fall in love with her?!
“Lady Ada, Mr. Sawle, I’m here without an invitation. Is that okay with you?” NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
Chloe stood gracefully before them, her red lips and white teeth forming a comforting smile. Being younger than Joseph, she addressed Ada not as ‘Miss’, but as a ‘lady’ in a more respectful way. “Certainly, I wouldn’t object to Miss Thorp joining us. Furthermore, I’m delighted to have you here.”
“Had I been aware that Miss Thorp was coming, I would have extended an invitation to you too,” Joseph uttered with a complex emotion.
“There’s no need to go through so much hassle,” Chloe said with a smile. “Mr. Sawle should be aware that I’m not here for the banquet.”
The man’s countenance, cold and handsome, suddenly dropped.
Max’s forehead was beaded with sweat as he quickly pulled out his mobile phone and sent a message to the bodyguard outside the door.
[What the hell is going on?! ]
[I’m sorry, Secretary Johnson! We don’t know where that Miss Thorp came from either…]
[What are you talking about?! Can she grow out of the ground?!]
[It is our dereliction of duty! We are willing to accept punishment! We will immediately bring this Miss Thorp out! ]
[Is there something wrong with your brain?! This is the daughter of the richest man in Sea Gate, Stefan. She is someone that Mr. Sawle cares a lot about! If you dare to touch her, Mr. Sawle will remove you! Do you understand?!]
[Now pay attention to the situation around us. If there is a problem, report it immediately!]
“Oh my god!”
Ada Wang suddenly covered her mouth and exclaimed, her eyes lighting up. “President Thorp, is that brooch you’re wearing on your chest Alexa’s work, “Twilight of the Gods”?”
“Yes, Lady Ada,” Chloe replied with a smile. “This brooch is ‘Twilight of the Gods.”
Due to her remarkable looks, everyone was captivated by her. They failed to observe the yellow diamond brooch on her chest. It was the “Twilight of the Gods” that had won the gold award at the international jewelry design contest.
“The jewelry designed by Alexa? It dazzled me! I really want to go up and feel it!”
“Haven’t you heard the news already? This brooch is worth hundreds of millions! The 10-carat yellow diamond on it is valued at tens of millions. It’s the envy of many jewelry collectors!”
“As expected of the daughter of the wealthiest man in Sea Gate. She is incredibly generous!”
“The piece of Wind Oil Essence on Aubree’s neck is pricey, but it still falls short of Alexa’s jewels!”
Aubree was so angry that she gloomily coughed.
Falls short?!
Jake had bought her the most valuable imperial green jade at the auction, yet they said it fell short?!
Aubree inwardly cursed the eighteen generations of Grace’s ancestors, wondering how she could have been so humiliated that night if it weren’t for the need to fill a hole in the Brown family.
“President Thorp, ever since I saw the graceful beauty of Twilight of the Gods in the exhibition hall two years ago, I haven’t been able to get it out of my mind. I never thought I’d find it here with you!” Ada couldn’t help but express her envy, her voice full of admiration.
Zoey’s chest filled with anger, and her gaze, sharp as an awl, almost pierced through Chloe!
She couldn’t decide what to be jealous of first about the woman. Her beauty made her envious, as did the piece of jewelry she was wearing, something even international superstars couldn’t obtain.
She was also jealous with Joseph’s intent gaze towards Chloe.
“Two years ago, I experienced something sorrowful in my life. I didn’t leave the house for a while, so I decided to purchase a piece of jewelry to cheer myself up.”
Chloe curved her lips softly, her voice tranquil. “Funnily enough, I also spotted ‘Twilight of the Gods’ in the exhibition hall. I really liked it. Seeing it made my bad mood dissipate, so I bought it without a second thought.”
Joseph’s heart and lungs stirred as Chloe’s words were like knives. He couldn’t bring himself to look directly into her bright- eyes.
Two years ago, he was running around trying to construct the “Heart of Crimson Flame”.
Whenever Grace wanted something in the past, he would surprise her by sending it to her eyes, even if she hadn’t asked for
1.
Yet he was indifferent to what the previous Chloe wanted.
Joseph continued to gaze at Chloe, yet she did not meet his gaze.
She still held a grudge against him.
She held a grudge against him, not letting him go.
“The jewelry designed by Alexa was priceless!”
Ada looked at Chloe with appreciation in her eyes. “President Thorp, you must be a kind and generous soul.”
Chloe smiled serenely and removed the costly “Twilight of the Gods” from her chest. She then pulled out a silk handkerchief from her bosom and carefully wrapped the brooch in it. She then presented it to Ada with both hands.
“President Thorp, you are…”
“The Twilight of the Gods’ is, in my opinion, more befitting of Lady Ada’s courageous and heroic character.”
“I hadn’t planned anything for our first meeting. If it’s alright with you, I’d like to give you this brooch as a welcome present.”
Everyone was shocked into an uproar of disbelief!
Aubree, Skyler, and Zoey were so shocked that their mouths opened wide in astonishment!
This woman gave away a piece of jewelry worth hundreds of millions without even batting an eye?!
She was inhumanly wealthy!
Joseph pursed his thin lips in an instant, his fists clenched in cold sweat.
Chloe, what kind of mischief are you planning this time?
