Chapter 123 Connor spoke with a calm detachment, "Well then, we'll be heading out now." He wrapped his arm around Chloe and started towards the exit of the banquet hall. After a few steps, he paused and turned to address the crowd. “Ladies and gentlemen, today is my girlfriend's birthday. I've arranged a celebration at Clout Top's 88th floor. If you all don't mind, you're welcto join us. Tonight, everyone is a VIP guest." The crowd buzzed with excitement.
An invitation from Mr. Connor-who could resist? Many had longed for a chance to get in his good graces but never had the opportunity.

"Mr. Connor, let's go celebrate Ms. Chloe's birthday." "I'm in!" "Countin!" "I've heard Cloud Top's 88th floor is usually reserved for heads of state and never open to the public. They say the view is like something out of a fairy tale. I have to see it." The guests invited to the Meadows family's event swarmed out after Connor. Within five minutes, the once lively banquet was scattered and nearly empty, leaving only close relatives of the Meadows family behind.
They gathered around Jacob, sighing and lamenting.
"The wealthiest man around is actually Chloe's boyfriend. This could've been our ticket to unimaginable wealth. How did we mess this up?" "Chloe has always been brilliant in her studies and has a knack for design. All those award-winning pieces were hers, weren't they? The company's current designs can't compare. Even though she hasn't designed for Belle Époque recently, she still creates pieces for us to showcase in Milan. The summer fashion week is coming up and your relationship is so stranined. Will she still help us?" "If we had secured a connection with the Sartori family through her, the Meadows family would've been set for life. It's like watching a golden goose get away." Lisa, listening to her relatives' lamentations, couldn't hold back her anger.
"What's so special about Chloe? Do you think Mr. Connor really likes ber? She's married! Mr. Connor must've been tricked. Just wait until he finds out he's been played; he won't give her another glance! "And I can represent the company in the Milan summer fashion week. I'm not losing to Chloe.
"Connor's just blind right now, but he'll cto his senses soon. I'm his personal assistant. We see each other every day. I might just secure a connection with the Sartori family myself!" "Shut up!" Jacob finally snapped.

"You think you can replace Chloe in the competition with those subpar designs? It's one thing to embarrass us here, but now you want to do it internationally? "Look at you, all decked out in designer brands but still unable to
hide your lack of refinement. Look at Chloe, then look at yourself. After all these years and all the etiquette lesson's your mother arranged, this is how you turned out?
"You're grounded. Don't you dare step out and embarrass ne further." Th content is on novelenglish.net! Lisa was stunned.
Jacob had never been so stern in the three years since she'd returned. He had always been kind and tolerant, never scolding her so harshly. He had once praised her talent for design, which is why he placed her in the company's design department. So, in his eyes, were all her designs actually mediocre? X
