Chapter 259 Lisa was practically gnashing her teeth in frustration. Right now, she was utterly helpless. All she could do was bow her head and accept her fate.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtChloe waved the IOU in front of Lisa, her expression turning deadly serious, her voice echoing with a stern warning. "Lisa, don't try any more tricks behind my back, or the price you'll pay will be much steeper than what you're facing now." Lisa's heart skipped a beat in fear. She knew Chloe was getting back at her because Lisa had cut her model's shoelaces during the competition, nearly sabotaging her chance to compete. Lisa hadn't expected Chloe's revenge to be this intense. What she once thought was Chloe's arrogance and indifference to wealth turned out to be a complete act.
As furious as she was, Lisa was powerless to fight back at the moment.
Chloe left the hospital. In the parking lot, Leah suddenly called out to her. "Chloe." Chloe stopped in her tracks. "Mrs. Meadows, what can I do for you?" "If you're willing to call him 'Dad,' why can't you acceptas your mom?" Chloe's fingers slowly clenched into fists. Calling Jacob 'Dad' was easy because she didn't care about him at all. Since Jacob valued profit above all else, she dealt with him like any other business transaction. Calling him 'Dad' a few times to get company shares? Easy trade. But emotionally, she had given up on Jacob long ago. Her feelings towards Leah, however, were different. Chloe couldn't ignore the fact that Leah had abandoned her. She couldn't forget Leah's hurtful curses and resentment. Nor could she overlook Leah's complete disregard for her feelings when she decided to take Linda under her wing. The pain from these actions was indescribable. Once, the person Chloe loved most in the world had been her mother. Chloe would only show emotion in front of Leah.
"I'm living with Ann now, and she's my mother." Chloe hadn't actually accepted Ann. She knew Ann wasn't her biological mother, but she also knew the damage her words could inflict. Sure enough, Leah's face changed drastically, a storm brewing in her eyes.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter a moment, Leah lowered her gaze. "If that's what you want, then do so. The grievances between adults shouldn't concern the children. It's my fault before." Chloe felt an unexpected pang of sadness hearing these words. For years, she had waited for Leah to admit abandoning her was a mistake. She had waited for Leah to regret it, to lie awake at night tormented by her actions. But when Leah finally spoke those words, Chloe didn't feel a sense of triumph in her heart, only sadness.
At that moment, Chloe felt lost. What was it that she truly wanted? Leah continued, "Chloe, if I'm not mistaken, you must be Miss Y."
Chloe looked at Leah, a flash of surprise in her eyes. It was only an matter of tbefore Leah guessed it After all, Leah knew Chloe better than anyone.
Leah explained, "When the Timeless Garden gown was showcased, I felt the designs looked familiacie was e like had seen them before. Then remembered that years ago, I saw you drawing the Timeless Garden in the study."
A bitter smile formed on Leah's lips.
"You've always been incredibly talented indesign, whether it's m fashion or jewelry." Ashburn > Chloe gazed steadily at Leah. "Why didn't you exposeearlier if you knew this already?" X
