Kelvin grinned and stared at her, “Really? It doesn’t appear that way.”
Chloe looked to be cautious and was pondering about something. When she saw that he was staring at her, she quickly lowered her head and looked at herself, hesitated and lowered her hands, and asked, “Regardless of how I think, what your intentions for bringing me here are? I can apologize for what happened just now but you must open the door and let me out.”
Kelvin didn’t appear that he would budge. He simply turned and leaned onto the pillow at the edge of the bathtub. He lowered his voice as he spoke across the steam, “I’m uninterested in empty apologies.”
Chloe became agitated, “What the hell
Surrogate:125 “We’ve arrived.” Kelvin's deep voice echoed in the car. Chloe came to her senses and looked out at the familiar surroundings of the apartment complex. She was distracted. She felt like the dinner was very surreal. “Thanks.” She said and turned to shake Audrey’s shoulders. “Audrey…” The kid yawned but continued to sleep like a piglet. She could not be awakened. “Allow me,” Kelvin said as he undid his seatbelt. He exited the car before Chloe rejected and opened the rear car door. He easily carried Audrey intohis arms. “Come, I’ll send you up.” Chloe was stunned and then walked in front. Claire's apartment was on the twentieth floor. The elevator was slow and they could hear each other’s br
Surrogate:126: The next afternoon, Claire drove and sent Hayden to the hotel. “Do you want me to send you in?” Claire teased, “Perhaps I can meet Joseph and if you are shy, I can help you to reply.” “Can you stop your nonsense?” Chloe rolled her eyes, “Please open the boot. Thanks for taking care of Audrey during this period.” “No worries.” Claire leaned back in her seat and blinked at her, “You’d better think carefully of your situation, for example getting a stepfather for Stella. You don’t have to think of anything else.” chloe was speechless. Claire kept talking about Kelvin when the day started. She even suspected that Kelvin had bribed Claire's to help him hasten Hayden. After taking her
Surrogate:127: Crushing On Her Kelvin had never thought of looking for a lifelong partner before he met Chloe. In his eyes, he always thought that raising a dog was much more reliable than getting married. He didn’t feel lonely, but instead, he enjoyed being alone.There was once he thought that Aiden Clifford had messed up his life. But he never thought of meeting Chloe again one day. Her appearance was different from Aiden's. Kelvin was resisting Aiden initially, but to Chloe, he was willing for it. The sound of the door shut echoed in the silent room. The sound was low and didn’t affect the sleeping environment in the bedroom. Dave had been waiting at the entrance for a while, “Mr. Clifford.” “Mmm.” Kelvin nodded in response and instructed him, “There were man
Surrogate:128: “What do you want?” Chloe put down the chopsticks and asked in confusion. “What do you think? Kelvin questioned back with a smile on his face. Kelvin blushed instantly as she lowered her head, muttering, “Can’t you wait until I finish my dinner. Why do you always have your mind in the gutter…” Before she could finish talking, she raised her head and saw Kelvin standing up and leaving the table. He looked tall under the lights. “What are you doing?” Chloe wasconfused as she watched Kelvin heading to the sofa. Kelvin picked up a sizeable purple gift box on the sofa, and he untied the bowknot on it on the edge of the table. When it was opened, inside it was a black-green cheongsam with dark red flowers pattern
Surrogate:129: Before Claire answered, David had arrived. He was 1. 85-meter tall. His model-like body figure brought out the best of the white suit he was wearing. “Why are you here?” As expected, the first person David talked to was Claire. “Why are you asking? Are you saying that I can’t be here because your family owns the place?” “I don’t mean that,” David smiled awkwardly. “Somebody told me that we have come to an end and that we've reached a parting way. It wasn’t too long ago…” “Excuse me, I still meant what I said last night,” Claire rolled her eyes. Then, she suddenly waved at the behind of David in a sweet tone, “Honey, I’m here.” A man with blonde hair and blue eyes approached them. He was the youngest among the guest tonight. The wide and muscular figure of a west
Surrogate 130: It was summer in Rave city. The evening breeze caressed the trees tenderly after sunset. Chloe was wearing a pair of 12cm heels, and she was heading to the hotel lobby. The moment she walked out of the lift, she saw a familiar van stop at the entrance. Kelvin walked out of the car in a business suit. He was buttoning his coat. When Chloe was about to approach Kelvin, she saw another woman walk out of the car after Kelvin. Her outfit was low-key. She lookedgorgeous even though she was only wearing a white T-shirt and a pair of skinny black jeans. Her black cap and huge sunglasses seemed to be announcing her unusual identity. Chloe was stunned. She took a step back and hid in the corner of the lift lobby. A man and a woman stood at the entrance of the hotel lobby like they were made for each
Chloe Crowther pulled a long face and put her ear to the door, listening to Kelvin's voice coming from outside, “Need not. I still have things to deal with. I’ll just put the gifts here. Let your mommy have a good rest.” “Fine then.” Audrey said. Kelvin was speechless. “See you later, Mr. Kelvin.” Kelvin was in a hurry and left after delivering those luxury goods to her. What was the point of this? “He’s apologizing!” Claire was sitting on the floor, holding the latest model of Chanel handbag. And she also explained to Chloe, “Don’t you get it? He had reflected on himself, and he felt guilty. So he decided to buy these to make up for you. It’s the latest model, where did he buy it! It’s a limited edition!”&nb
“The news isn’t all of it. Did you misunderstand something?” Kelvin was relaxed as he took the initiative to talk about the news that had been making a lot of noise since last night. Despite the feeling of dissatisfaction, Chloe tried her best to remain calm when looking at him. “Since the news by the reporter isn’t all of it, then let see what’s behind it. Don’t you tell me that you met her by chance at the airport and caught on camera by the reporter coincidentally?” “No.” Kelvin furrowed his brows, “I didn’t hide it from you about the matter that Ariana helped contact the German doctor. When I brought Aiden to Germany, it so happened that she was shooting a commercial in Germany too, and so we met. As for the matter of the sneak photo of us returning from abroad, Dave has been dealing with it already. It will be removed from the trending to

“What do you think? You think you can hide things from me and I won't find out?” Kelvin asked from behind and Chloe turn back to see him standing behind them with a file in his hands. His expression was darkened and the looks in his eyes were deadly. Seeing this sight, Davina quickly stood up from her seat and nodded at Chloe before she took a step away from there. “I'll leave you two alone,” She said as she walked out of the restaurant, leaving the two of them alone. Chloe was quivering. However, she managed to say, “Mr...Clifford?” Without saying a word, Kelvin came forward and took hold of her hand, and dragged her out of the restaurant. He took her to the car, he sent the driver out and drove the car himself. He drove the car like he was on a death mission. The sp
A few days later, Javier was still recuperating at the hospital, while Chloe was watching over him. She came out of the room to go in search of food. Just then, her eyes fell on the figure of a familiar person. “Audrey hasn’t eaten yet. You take her out to have something to eat.” Chloe entrusted Audrey to Victor, “I have an appointment with someone and I’ll be back later.” “Okay.” Victor nodded, “Chloe, who are you meeting?” Chloe paused for a moment, “Davina” In an open-air café on City Road, the iron tables and chairs had a strong French feel. The maple leaves on thebranches in early autumn overhead showed that the weather in Rave city was getting cold gradually. &
A few months later, Chloe had just returned home from the company after the day's work. The past few weeks have been a tough one for her as she had to watch over the VIP at the hotel, on top of that she got into many fights with Kelvin unprovoked. During one of the fights, she had said hurtful things to him. She even went as far as telling him off about not being interested in getting married to a person like him ahi k had greatly angered Kelvin–due to this, he has been keeping his distance from her the entire time. Both Aiden and Audrey tried to bring them back together but it wasn't working out either. Claire was not at home when she came back, while Audrey was in her room working on her homework. when she saw Chloe at the door, she shrugged her shoulders and continued working. Chloe exhaled as she went back to the kitchen to prepare dinner for them. As soon as she set the ingredients on the table, her phone suddenly rang as she quickly wiped her hands on the apron before
After tossing and turning all night, Chloe woke up at dawn the next morning. On the sofa, David was woken up by a rustling sound. He sleepily took his watch from the coffee table. “It’s only five o’clock, so early?” Chloe took her bag and prepared to go out. She looked so calm as if nothing had happened last night. “I’m going to work early. By the way, you can sleep in the guest room now.” David nodded dazedly and went to the bedroom while hugging his pillow. But when he turned, he went in the wrong direction and had entered the master bedroom. Chloe did not call him and just secretly smiled. Then, she left Claire’s house. Kelvin’s matter indeed dealt a big blow to her but she still had to continue working. She still had to plan the matter of letting her son return
David instantly shut his mouth. His voice abruptly stopped. Chloe looked back at David and her face did not look good. They were even childhood friends. Claire was livid. “You surprisingly really know. Continue saying.” Looking at the situation, if David did not say everything honestly, he would be blamed together with Kelvin. After weighing the pros and cons, David chose to temporarily switch sides. “Davina is the English name. Her name is Addison Ramirez. The Ramirez family, my family, and the Clifford family have been friends for generations. I, Kelvin, her eldest brother and, her second eldest brother are similar in age so we often play together as a child. But Kelvin is more withdrawn and he doesn’t love to bother us. Addison is young and we don’t love to take
“Listen up everyone, the president of LG Travel Agency is going to inspect our hotel this afternoon. Make sure nothing goes wrong even the tiniest details, got it?” “Got it.” Chloe just finished her all-hands meeting in the meeting room at Grandex Hotel. The headquarters took up a long-term partnership with a prestigious travel agency LG, everything else was done, what was left was the on-site inspection. The agency chose Chloe’s hotel for the inspection. As soon as the inspection passed, the contract of long-term partnership would be signed. After that, all LG Agency’s customers traveling to East China would be arranged to stay at Grandex Hotel. In the afternoon, under the scorching sun, the management team of the hotel stood at the doorway waiting for the inspection team. &nb
Surrogate 144 “This one.” David took a look around and pointed at the largest piece at the center, “I’ll take that one.” One could tell from the expression of the onlooking shop workers, that the piece was pricey. The shop owner was sophisticated enough to stay calm and asked, “Do you have any specific inquiries? Or you can give us your design if you have one.” “Not much, just one thing. It has to be special and match the vibe.” “What kind of vibe?” A worker asked cautiously. Closing his eyes, David pondered for a while and said, “Hot and spicy.” The worker twitched the corner of her mouth and looked at Kelvin as if asking for help. Frowning, Kelvin stepped sideways and put on an aloof look. &
There was dead silence in the conference room. Maddie could barely stand, holding the corner of the table and trembling. She was overwhelmed with shame and rage, wishing to have Chloe murdered. She couldn’t believe that Chloe had filmed these unpleasant scenes and also showed them to Zayn. Chloe used such a trick to threaten her, ruining her only chance to be together with Zayn. “So, do you read or not?” After a long moment, Maddie gritted her teeth, “I’ll read it.” Before leaving the conference room, Chloe unplugged the USB flash drive and brushed it off, “Besides, please let the Twilight Media and also your internet water armies delete all those nonsensical remarks from the internet. Otherwise, you bear your consequences.” &nbs
