The car drove straight to the entrance of the diamond estate villa. We've come full circle. I can't believe I'm back here after merely spending a day at home since I left here.
Chloe pursed her lips.“President Clifford, you can't be telling me that this is the accommodation that you've arranged for me and Audrey”.
“This is it” He replied nonchalantly.
The servant from the residence was already shifting the suitcases into the house efficiently; Chloe could do nothing to stop them.
“This isn't appropriate ”.
“We have a lot of empty rooms, and it doesn't make a difference with you living here. There's always transport to drive Audrey around, and it isn't too far from your place of work as well” Kelvin regarded Chloe while explaining.“Plus, you are not staying for free. You are in charge of breakfast and dinner during weekdays, and you have to prepare three meals during weekends. Ai
Hang on, that doesn't make any sense. Chloe is the first young lady of the Crowther family; how could she possibly end up as somebody's surrogate?” Ariana frowned deeply, struggling as though she was struggling to make sense of everything that the other party had said, “Besides, if it's true that Chloe was a surrogate mother? why does she have a child with her now?”. John Fudd adjusted his spectacles while opening the folder calmly.“According to Nelson, the young woman was in desperate need of money back then and she had approached the owner of a brothel, who had arranged a job for her but she didn't know what she was expected to do, but after she learned the truth she refused but she was stuck in a difficult position that forced her there. Later, Nelson, the butler, observed Chloe in secret until she was due for delivery at the hospital. Then, he sent people to stop her because he was trying to make the best out of a bad bargain. He was even forced get to sign a contr
Before going upstairs, Chloe asked the maids for some ointment and knocked on the door of the dressing room. “Come in” Kelvin had already changed his attire; the previously worn pajamas were brunched up and simply thrown onto the floor. “Is your leg fine? I've brought you some ointment ” Chloe stood at the door and said while glancing into the room. He nodded as a reply.“Thanks”. “You are welcome, it's your ointment anyway. I'll just leave it here for you to use. I'm going out now”. “Alright”. After putting down the ointment, she turned around and left the dressing room. However, upon taking a few steps, she suddenly remembered something, so she turned back and opened the door straight away. “Remember to put the ointment–...” Before she could finish her words, her expression immediately froze the moment she saw the
Upon hearing his response, Chloe was startled instead since she didn't expect him to apologize so soon. After all, he was a young master and a President with high status, nobody dares to question him. No one would even be surprised if he did something as spontaneous as he did just now. Chloe grabbed her faintly hurting hand and felt a little awkward .“forget about it. Just forget it. I'll just move out with Audrey instead”. “Wait.”. Kelvin called after her.“ you don't need to move out. I'll go on a long business trip this evening, and my flight departs at 3:00 pm which means I won't be staying there for the time being. During this period, I would like you to help take care of Aiden”. Chloe instantly halted her steps and hesitated for a while before nodding her head. There was a place to go if she suddenly moved out at this time. She couldn't bring a chil
The online influencer crossed her arms and plopped down on the sofa. Then, she uttered these words faintly.“ I want 100,000”. When Chloe heard the amount mentioned the muscles on her face instantly tensed up. Standing beside her, the housekeeping manager revealed an incredulous expression on his face as he protested.“Miss Shelton, you must be joking. 100,000? How could we possibly give you 100,000?”. This is a daylight scam! Chloe on the other hand looked unperturbed. She sighed at the manager's sleeves to motion for him to call down and not to be shaken by this.“Miss Shelton, both of us are in no position to fulfill your request. Why don't we change your room first, and I'll put in a request to the general manager for your compensation? I'll try my best to give you a quick reply. What do you think?”.
Wait a minute. Aren't you forgetting something?” “I don't think so. No, we aren't”. Chloe stared at the woman's face and asked, saying.“Miss Shelton, what do you think we are forgetting? Please tell is”. The woman immediately came back to her senses and shouted while pointing her fingers at Chloe's face.“ You are trying to shove it at the back of your mind, aren't you? You are too shameless to be called a reputed organization. Don't tell me you're planning to leave the incident from last night as it is. Why are you suddenly now discarding your previous promises to me?”. However, Chloe didn't beat around the bush as she raised her head to look at the woman and said directly without mincing her words. “Miss Shelton, last night you had informed us that there were cockroaches in your room, so we immediately handled it and quickly gave you a change of room. I promised that we'd provide you w
Everything is done he signed a five-year contract with Twilight Media straight away. if he breaches the contract, the compensation fee will. E enough to put him into bankruptcy” Dave wanted to laugh as he reported the situation to Kelvin. This little brat, zayn, is so easy to deceive. A slight feint by President Clifford is enough to make him take the bait instantly. After all, he is still young, so he couldn't read the mind of bosses like him. “ why would I want to tell terminate his contract ?” Kevin flatly refuted.“ is it not better to keep him to make money for me?” After listening to his explanation, Dave was dumbfounded as he started to sympathize with zayn upon this realization. President Clifford is trying to drive him insane. Imagine being the servant of someone that you especially hate and being forced to make money for him. If He doesn't make money for president Clifford, he won't be
Royal Park was located in the middle of the rave city, and due to complete infrastructure around it, the prices of its houses had soared high in recent years. The two-story villa under Chloe's name had a yard of its own, and its thee has already had risen to about 100 million. After closing the door, Chloe turns around to gaze at the villa in front of her before pressing the doorbell right away. Soon after, an older woman in her early fifties came to open the door. she sized up Chloe with a puzzled expression .“May I ask who you are looking for?”. With a calm demeanor, Chloe's eyes flickered as she said, “Hello ma'am. Is this house for sale? ”. “For sale? Are you a real estate agent?” The maid shook her head.“Why would my master sell the house? I suggest you go and ask in some other places”. “Your master? Isn't this house yours, Ma'am?” Chloe continues with her conventional talks.“I thought if belong to you. Many elderlies nowadays want to hav

“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
