Chapter 807 He’ll Mistake Her for His Beloved
“Whatever. After all, I'll be part of the royal family while you'll always be a shameful bastard child."
"Good luck."
Chloe could not be bothered with Xavia and turned around to look for Noah. Her indifference filled Xavia with annoyance.
Just then, Chloe locked eyes with Joseph. She tucked away a few strands of her hair behind her ear and looked away calmly as if he was just a stranger. Joseph clenched his fists tightly and texted her. She glanced at the text, the few words he typed out clearly showing his unhappiness.
[Come to the backyard.]
Chloe put away her phone and snorted. 'Dream on.'
Before long, Callum appeared. And as Frieda had anticipated, he led Chloe to the center of the hall and solemnly and formally introduced Chloe as his daughter. He also said that he had yet to get to know Carolina at the time so, as his legal wife, she had nothing to be ashamed of. Everyone had surmised as much, so they were not very surprised.
"From this day forth, Chloe has my full support. If anyone bullies or challenges her, I'll forgo all past friendships in dealing with those people."
"Yes, Chloe’s our daughter and a member of the royal family from now on." Carolina's eyes were full of gentleness. "Coco, I want to put your name in the royal family tree. Do you want that?"
"Madam, thank you for accepting me, but I'm very happy with my place in the Sullivan family and my grandfather. So, please forgive me as I turn down your kindness."
Carolina was hit by bewilderment. She had not expected Chloe to refuse her.
"The royals live good lives, but I like the ordinary life better. I believe that my mother would have thought the same." Chloe then looked at Callum.
He smiled at her as if he had long foreseen this. "All right, we’ll respect your wishes but promise to come to me if you face any difficulties. The royal family will forever be your strongest shield."
He said these words to Chloe, but it was more of a warning to the guests.
Chloe nodded and promised she would. She then returned to her seat.
Noah handed her a glass of lemonade. "I haven’t seen you drink much today. Here, have some."
Chloe accepted the glass and took a few sips. Suddenly, she spotted Clara sneaking toward the back of the hall. She then recalled that it was Clara's scheme that had led to what happened with Chad the other day.
"I'm going out for some fresh air."
"I’ll go with you."
"No need. All the guests here are influential people, so it’s better if you stay here. You never know, we might get a few offers."
Callum had already expressed his stand earlier, and these people were shrewd. They would surely try to please Chloe and Noah. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
"But..."
Noah was about to speak when Otto sat down.
"Can we have a chat?"
Chloe glanced at Noah. "I'll be right back. She then walked in the direction that Clara had left.

Chloe hid among the bushes in the garden.
"Where is he? Didn't you say that Joseph was here?" Clara interrogated the other helper standing before her as she looked around.
"He's over here. This place isn't big, so you’re sure to find him. Well, I’ve provided you with information. Hurry up and pay me."
Clara gritted her teeth and unwillingly took out a bank card.
The helper snatched the card and asked curiously, "Is that thing you have that potent? Will men really lose control of their urges when they smell it?"
Clara took out a small spray bottle. While spraying it, she looked for Joseph and said smugly, "He'll lose control and become delusional, mistaking me for the woman he loves most."
He would then sleep with her, and she could rely on this to gain wealth.
Clara had gotten someone to buy this for her from Dailand, and it was said to be one hundred percent effective. There were not many good men left. Xavia had Kenneth and Chloe had Noah, but Joseph was still single.
Clara was charmed by the thought of Joseph's handsome and tall figure. Although he was once married, his capital and face still made him desirable. She felt that he was worthy of her.
