The time was fast spent, by the time Chloe woke up after the passionate night, the outside world was getting brighter. Although, it's just 5: am.
With pain all over her body, Chloe dragged her groggy body up from the bed and went into the bathroom for a wash-up.
Under the cold shower, she let the water stream down her body as tears fell off of her eyes.
She couldn't accept the fact that she has lost her dignity to a nameless man in just a few hours of meeting him.
He was so hard and intentional with her like, he wanted to plant everything in one night.
The pain from her body kept reminding her of all that has happened some hours back and now she will be forced to leave with the reality all of her life.
Well, it's not a big deal anyway, she would get over it soon once she births the Child and leaves.
Nobody should know abou
As soon as she got to the hospital, she noticed that the place looks kind of strange, unlike the crowded bubbly place. The place looks desolate. Without paying much attention, she hurried towards the wards. Overwhelmed by the desire to see Andrea, she scurried. She hasn't laid her eyes on Andrea since the surgery, now she is going to spend the time with her before leaving for work. Getting to the door, she met three hefty-looking men at the door. They had an indifferent expression on their face, they wore suits of the same color, and a microphone is attached to their clothes. Shocked!! Chloe realized that there was trouble on the mountain with the appearance of the men at her doorpost. Flinging her bag on the floor, right beside the door. She ran into the room with her heart beating faster than it has ever done.
The moment, she stepped into the room, her eyes fell on the corners of the room. A depressing devastated look crept onto her face. She felt weak at the knee instantly. At one corner of the room, Aunt Jodie was being held captive by the men, her hands were frailed in the air. With the men holding her back from moving any further. Struggling to release herself, she kept cursing at the woman, who gave them the order to pull her away from there. While on the other side, the woman sat on the bed close to Andrea. In her hand was a pointed edge knife, the knife looks shiny like a newly purchased object. And the reflection of the sunlight falling on it makes it even more dangerous. Bending over slowly, she put the knife right under Andrea's throat with her hand moving forth and back gently, she made to slide open her wound
With a dramatic tone, the woman turned around. Filing the knife against her palms. “Oh look at who we have here! , it seems we are going to have a family reunion right at the hospital, what do you say! Matilda asked sauntering around her with a smirk plastered on her painted face. Her questions were directed at no one in particular. When she was standing face to face with Chlor, she suddenly changed her expression to that of a vengeful woman. She was about to say a word or two when Chloe beat her to it. “Matilda, what do you want from us? Why are you doing this to us? She asked with a shaky teary tone, her voice is as low as ever but you could hear the pain in her chest. “Oh looks like you have got some nerves, you've learned to be rude to me, right? I'm your mother and you are supposed to address me as one, not the other way round
With a painful heart, Chloe replied. “We didn't leave with any of your things, please let us be now! Moving back sharply, Matilda let out a loud chuckle. “I know you didn't leave with anything that belongs to me, but your silly muted sister is sitting on what should be rightfully Maddie's from the beginning ” Puzzled by her outburst, Chloe ranked her brains to figure out what she was going on about but there was nothing to think about anyway. “Something of yours? We didn't take anything, Matilda! “Oh yes, you did! You stole Maddie's inheritance and I will ask you just this once to return them!” She replied fledging the papers at her, with a constricted look Chloe bent over and picked up the papers. Matilda boiled with so much anger, watching Chloe act li
With a mocking voice, Matilda approaches Chloe and held her by the shoulders, swerving her around ferociously. “Have you seen what your begging asses stole from us? now, I need you to be a good girl and return it to us, I want everything to be the last of the penny! She ordered, stretching forward a pen. Shocked by her orders, Chloe blinked her eyes severally, trying to digest everything. How can she ask them to return their rights to her? This is so wrong and she won't allow herself to be a victim of such a conspiracy. “What? This belongs to Andrea, I won't give it away to anyone. It belongs to Andrea and only she has the right over it! Chloe yelled, hiding the papers behind her back to prevent Matilda from snatching them away. “Let's see how long you are going to keep up with this act, you silly girl! Matilda said w
She waved without minding the people around, With tears in her eyes, she fell to her knees allowing her pains to captivate her. “It's a good thing, you made the right choice, your family would have suffered the consequences of your ill intentions! “How could you think of running away with the man's baby!!? “I'm not pregnant! A voice said behind her and she turn to have a look but suddenly a clothe covered her nose and face, she was unable to see anything. “You sure are not pregnant yet, but that doesn't mean you are not going to be soon! The old man said, immediately they took Chloe away to a hospital in the city. The place was deserted, Chloe was left in the care of the nurses and midwives. Settling her on the bed, she kept struggling to free herself, then an old man walked into the room. His face is covered with wrinkles. “Your family will be
She woke up early the next day, after settling Audrey down at home, she hailed a cab at the gate of her neighborhood right sweat to go to the Grande Cooperation at the town center. This day was the Grandex Cooperation's quarterly job interview, so people were scurrying in and out of the place. It looks a bit crowded due to the large number of people that came to seek employment at the reputed cooperation. Looking at the large crowd, she was heartbroken. The level of unemployment in the city seems to have shot up in the last couple of years. How heartbreaking!! She alighted from the cab and joined the other job seekers. Just then, her eyes fell on the elevator “Hey, stop! wait up, wait for me Seeing that the elevator was about to close Chloe ran there in high heroes shoes. Then she gritted her teeth and dashed into the elevator before the elevator door closes
Everyone at the scene was shocked. How dare she makes such a boastful bet with the boss? She had only contributed 15 percent to My Lady Hotel's monthly income when she worked there for two years. Then, how the earth does she think, she would pull off such tricks. She even went ahead to propose a bet to the boss, how ridiculous! Kelvin closed the food in front of him, toss it aside. Putting his hand on the table, he stood up and bent over slightly. “What if you can't make it happen, then? Chloe's smile grew even broader, and dazzling, as she didn't flinch for a second. “If I can't make it happen, then I will sell myself to the Grandex hotel and be at your service for three years, how about that? do you dare to accept this bet? “Accept, accept!!, do it already Kelvin,” David urged at one side. “You'll be a coward if you don't accept the bet, Kelvin!”

“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
