A Billion-Rich Woman Was Chased by Her EX-Husband

Chapter 184

Ada was taken aback with excitement, rendered speechless!

Almost everyone around her had begged for a jewelry design to be designed by Alexa, yet she still

hadn’t gotten it.

Chloe presented her with the brooch as a greeting gift, and her excitement was palpable!

“No, no, no… I appreciate President Thorp’s kind gesture, but this gift is too valuable, I really can’t take

it.” Ada was obviously delighted, yet she had to decline due to propriety.

“This brooch once comforted my aching heart, but now, I have fully stepped out of the darkness of that

life, and I will never make the same mistakes again.”

Chloe smiled lightly, and her eyes were unwaveringly determined. “This gift is more of a beautiful wish.

It once helped me out of a dark place, so I hope this small thing will stay with you. I hope it will help you

to get through everything in the future.”

Joseph’s pupils contracted, and he felt as if a bullet had pierced his chest, leaving his heart numb with

agony.

Chloe ruthlessly smashed the secret joy on top of his head with a basin of cold water, cold enough to

reach the bottom of his heart.

“Oh! In that case, I’ll gladly accept President Thorp’s gift. Much appreciated! I’m really fond of this

present!”

Ada held up the brooch that Chloe had once again blessed with divine value, with her mouth full of

smiles?!

Heavens, was this still the same cold international superstar? She had seriously been deformed!

“Why?!”

Skyler was livid and said to Aubree, “Mom, the Sawle Group put a lot of money into setting up this

platform. Why should we let this Chloe character flaunt around here? Isn’t it just a worthless trinket?

We, the Sawle Group, can afford it too!

“You should think of a way to get this slut to scram!”

“Think of a way? Why do I have to think of a way?”

Aubree’s eyes darkened, and she curled her lips maliciously, “Chloe is a bringer of misfortune. She

came here to give me a hard time. Just

now, she used Ada to make fun of me. She was so arrogant, isn’t there someone who can avenge

me?”

Although Skyler was angry in her heart, she muttered under her breath.

Before the divorce, Chloe was terrified of Joseph, like a frightened bird. Whenever he frowned, she

would fret over it for days. Now that she was divorced, her aura was completely liberated, and she had

Joseph firmly in her grasp.

Had Grace taken out this ability promptly, what could she have done?

“Miss Chloe!”

Zoey, finally boiling over with humiliation, took two steps forward to stand in front of Chloe and said with

a false grin, “Can’y you give a present for Miss Ada at any other times? Why did you have to pick

tonight, at the Sawle Group’s banquet, to do it?”

“Isn’t this an excessive suspicion of stealing the host role?!”

Joseph’s starry eyes suddenly dimmed when he saw Zoey take a step forward.

“Taking the host role just because I’m presenting a gift? Miss Anderson, you’re underestimating Mr.

Sawle’s capabilities.”

“Besides, this is Sawle Group’s banquet. Mr. Sawle is standing here and observing everything. The

proprietor hasn’t said anything, but Miss Anderson said this to me as a guest. Is this really necessary?”

Zoey was so enraged that her eyes were blazing, yet with so many people watching, she managed to

maintain her composure!

Chloe sighed faintly and said to Ada guiltily, “My Lady Ada, it appears that I’m not wanted here. I get it.

After all, Sawle Group and our KS Group have always been competitors. My showing up like this is too

sudden.”

“Since my present has already been given, I won’t trouble everyone. I’ll take my leave now.”

After she had finished speaking, she turned and walked away.

“President Thorp, wait a minute!”

Ada hastily shouted to Chloe and hastened to her side. “I’d like to converse about the Alexa jewelry

with you, President Thorp. Are you available this evening?”

“Absolutely. KS WORLD has already prepared some delicious Medo dishes and a nice bottle of wine

for you. Why don’t we catch up over dinner?”

Everyone was taken aback!

Miss Thorp’s family was so bold that she dared to openly rescue someone from Sawle Group’s trap.

Joseph’s heart shrank as the anger that Chloe had set off rushed straight to his chest. He was just

about to call out to Ada when he felt it.

“Mr. Sawle.”

Ada glanced at him and gave an apologetic smile. “Unfortunately, I have an errand to run, so I must be

off. Wishing you all a wonderful time!”

Everyone was so shocked.

She had said all she needed to with just that one sentence?

She was just as the legends described: doing whatever she pleased and not easily served.

“Mr. Sawle,” Chloe said with a forced smile, “I don’t mind getting another set of chopsticks for you.

Would you like to join me at the banquet?” Despite her invitation, her eyes lacked any hint of joy.

Joseph clenched his teeth tightly, his heart pounding against his ribs.

Just as he was about to speak, the woman suddenly laughed. “There are so many people here tonight,

I’m afraid Mr. doesn’t have a moment to spare. Let’s wait for the next time; there’ll be an opportunity

then.”

Sawle

Under the watchful gaze of all present, Chloe and Ada Wang departed the banquet hall as if they had

been old friends for many years.

The hall was filled with a stifling silence.

Joseph stared intently at Chloe’s delicate back, his chest filling with a blood aura that caused his peach

blossom eyes to turn a slight shade of red.

The last time she was around, she had stolen his project.

This time, she stole his populace.

Chloe, how do you appear as a wealthy daughter who could rival a nation? You are certainly a robber

who takes all by force!

Very good, very good!

-Joseph, without being aware of it, put his hand over his heart, yet he still felt hollow inside.

Chloe felt as if something was trailing her, only to be snatched away.

Many reporters were still gathered outside the hotel of Sawle Group.

Logically, Ada had already checked in; thus, after the banquet, she would return to the presidential

suite to rest, rendering it pointless for the reporters to remain here – they should have gone back long

ago.

However, the number of reporters present now was not much fewer than before the banquet started.

If something occurred, it would surely be a demon.

Jordan invited the reporters back, promising that there would be big news!

Some reporters were already growing impatient and voicing their complaints at this moment.

“What are we doing here on such a chilly day? What exciting news will there be tonight?”

“I surmise it’s because KS is unwilling to surrender and desires to fight a bit.”

“What can they do if they don’t give up? This place is actually Medo, not Sea Gate. Haven’t you heard

the saying: ‘A powerful dragon can’t/subdue a local snake”?”

“Furthermore, Sawle Group was a local dragon. A foreign dragon like KS would certainly not accept

water and earth. Moreover, Chloe was a woman. How could she compete with the wise and powerful

Mr. Sawle?”

“Tsk, there’s nothing wrong with it! Even though Mr. Sawle is not very emotionally intelligent, he is a

real whiz when it comes to business. KS is just a passing fad. There’s no chance of it succeeding!”

An ear-piercing sound of a car suddenly rang out, startling everyone!

The reporters, surprised, looked towards the big lights and saw a dark green, top-class Rolls-Royce

with the logo of a crystal goddess slowly rolling up to the hotel’s main entrance and coming to a stop.

Everyone gazed at the imposing car, assuming that another celebrity must be inside. Undeterred by the

potential repercussions, they hastened to the luxurious vehicle and snapped photos.

When the car door opened, out stepped Jordan, dapperly dressed in a suit. The flash of cameras

suddenly ceased, leaving the

reporters looking disappointed.

Although this man was handsome, his looks alone could not make the headlines!

“Ah! It’s Ada Wang!”

Someone in the crowd shouted, drawing the reporters’ eyes back to the hotel’s front door.

Jordan had already opened the back door, his gentle gaze fixed in the same direction as everyone

else.

Chloe and Ada, side by side, stepped into the crowd’s view, and the flashes of cameras reached a

fever pitch! “What?! Ada Wang left Sawle Group’s cocktail party and was taken away by Chloe?!”

“It hasn’t even begun and his visitor has already been stopped. Where is Mr. Sawle going to show his

face?”

“Oh my goodness! This is a huge headline! The confrontation between Sawle Group and KS is really

intriguing. Quick, take the shot!”

The flashlights were so bright it was like daytime. Tonight, Chloe was the center of attention for the

Sawle Group.

At this moment, the topic of twitter’s hot search also silently moved from #Ada Wang into Sawle Group

Hotel#.

It turned into #Chloe, Ada Wang#.

Just as Chloe was about to get into the car, protected by Jordan, a reporter sharply asked.

“Miss Thorp! Did you really take away Mr. Sawle’s esteemed visitor right in front of everyone? Is this

something you did? Isn’t that a bit extreme?!”

Chloe paused, her beautiful eyes suddenly lifting, her sharp gaze instantly shocking the reporter who

had been attempting to provoke her.

Her skin was soft, yet her soul was incomparably sharp!

“Could it be that I’m not able to take Miss Ada out for a meal simply because she stayed at Sawle

Group’s hotel?”

With a smile in her almond eyes, she placed the tall hat atop Joseph’s head. “Mr. Sawle is a generous

person, yet he doesn’t utter a word. Everyone is speculating here, doesn’t that imply that Mr. Sawle is

quite petty?”

Chloe gracefully got into the car, and the Rolls-Royce roared off.
