Chapter 297 Agreement
Amelia glared at Chloe angrily.
What’s wrong with her?
Why was she pretending to be the nice guy when she tried to help her?
"Grandma, I will look for the bracelet for you!" Amelia turned and headed outside but she was stopped by her.
"Hold on! Where do you think you are going? Heading for a fight? How unladylike!" Grandmother Dawson scolded sternly.
"Grandma..."
Amelia stomped her feet on the floor, "Why do we still care about our image at this point? That bracelet belongs to the Dawson family, how can we just let it go like this?"
"Be quiet!" Grandma Dawson glared at Amelia.
Amelia did not dare say anything more although she wasn't satisfied with the way things were handled.
It was clear that Chloe wanted to backstab Anna. Even though Grandma did not fall for the trick, they should not give away their heirloom so easily.
Chloe kept blaming Anna while using her baby as leverage. There was nothing Grandma Dawson could d
o to accuse Chloe.
Chloe peeked at Amelia and got a glare in return.
She lowered her head, unable to hold her smile.
Although things did not turn out how she wanted, it was still considered a success as Grandma did not ask for the bracelet.
Amelia said unhappily, "Grandma, although Anna didn’t lose the bracelet intentionally, she should at least apologize right?”
"She didn’t even turn up; she showed no respect at all! Who does she think she is?"
Chloe was irritated by how persistent Amelia was.
If this continued, Grandma would not let things end so simply.
“Grandma, I will inform my sister about this... I am going to marry Bryan soon. We are both very busy and I know that you certainly don't hope things get awkward between the two families."
Chloe directed the conversation to other things.
The bracelet went missing. There were only two things she could do: either drag Anna into this or sell the bracelet for some money.
Either option was good for her!
Anna's voice suddenly drifted in from the entrance.
"I am nothing special. Of course, I have to come and
defend myself about the missing bracelet."
Anna came in with a smile. She looked at Amelia first with a pair of doe-like eyes, before she turned and smiled at Chloe.
Chloe did not expect Anna to turn up. She was shocked and started to panic but calmed down in the blink of an eye.
"Anna, are you here to apologize?" Chloe asked before Anna could say anything.
Amelia continued, "Did you find the bracelet? Give it back if you have it."
Anna kept smiling nonchalantly.
"How could I find the missing bracelet so easily? I'm not a detective." Anna turned her gaze to Chloe.
"But I think someone here knows where the bracelet i s."
Chloe's heart skipped. Hatred started accumulating in her eyes.
"What do you mean, Anna?"
"Nothing. I'm just saying." Anna smiled lightly.
Chloe noticed how trusting Grandma’s eyes were when she looked at Anna. Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.
She knew Grandma liked Anna from the bottom of her heart, so she would not believe that Anna stole the bracelet.
Chloe started sobbing, wiping her eyes, "Don't be mad a t me. My son needs the bracelet. He is your nephew too you know.”
Anna looked at Chloe who was acting innocent, "How are you so sure that I took the bracelet?"
"Anna, it is fine! Grandma and I are not blaming anyone!" Chloe raised her head, exposing her tears.
Anna did not bother and looked at Grandma apologetically.
"I'm sorry grandma. I was too careless."
Grandma Dawson nodded understanding^, "It’s ok, Anna. Grandma knows how greedy and heartless a person can be."
Chloe's face turned pale after hearing that. She panicked.
"Grandma..."
"Enough, stop crying! Pregnant women should not cry, or else their kids will be crybabies!" Grandma Dawson waved her hands dismissively.
Chloe pulled back her body, her eyes displaying her insecurity.
"You are right, grandma. I’m too young and reckless! I don't need that bracelet to prevent my miscarriage. I will ask my mum to get another one when I get home ..." Chloe was trying to cover her insecurity.
"I think I will go home now, grandma. I'm not feeling very well." Chloe quickly stood up. She did not dare look at Grandma Dawson.
"I’ll accompany you!" Amelia stood up too, her eyes sharp.
Grandma Dawson nodded without looking at Chloe.
"Careful with the baby! Your belly bears our lineage. You know the consequences if anything happened to i t."
Chloe's face turned even paler than before. Her pursed lips were trembling.
"Yes... yes, grandma." Chloe quickly walked away.
She knew Grandma Dawson was not gullible. Since she did not say anything about the bracelet, she would continue with the lie.
However, grandma made it clear that the value of her existence was only because of the child in her belly.
Amelia looked at Chloe’s bitter face and mocked, "Well done for using me, Chloe."
"I didn’t." Chloe shook her head.
"You know for sure exactly where the bracelet is. How could you lay your hands on the Dawson’s heirloom?" Amelia squinted her eyes angrily.
"You want me to be an accomplice in exchange? Do you think I will believe you again?" "What do you mean?" Chloe gasped.
Amelia smirked, "I don't know whether Bryan will regret it after he marries you."
Chloe glared at Amelia, “Bryan will not regret it! I will bear him a son, the only successor to the Dawson family! Bryan cannot succeed the Dawson family without me."
Amelia looked at Chloe's stomach knowingly.
"You were trying to ruin Anna's image by using the bracelet, right? Grandma already knew your trick; she just didn’t expose you."
Amelia chuckled, "I can help you, but only if you and Bryan sign an agreement with me. I will try my best to help you get your portion of the shares from grandma."
Chloe's grip tightened and loosened slowly.
"An agreement?"
"Why? You can’t promise me that?"
"Of course, I can! I will discuss it with Bryan and we'll finalize the agreement!"
