The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Chapter 1098

“What’s the deal with you bringing up Ms. Summers‘ ring out of nowhere? What are you trying to imply?”

Rhoda was at her wits‘ end. Who in their right mind would be this aggressive over a woman they had just met?

“What’s my agenda? Can’t I just find her ring pretty?”

“Are you trying to make Makenna believe that Ms. Summers is some sugar baby? Do you think we’re all idiots?”

The more Austin heard, the weirder he found this woman who popped out of nowhere. He gave Rhoda a look,

hoping she’d get Dorthy out of there ASAP. Rhoda wanted the same, but she’d underestimated Dorthy’s obsession

with Chloe.

“Dorthy, I mean well. You’ve told me about your family’s financial struggles, and how proud your parents are of you

working at The Watson Hotel. Have you thought about how they’d feel if they had to bail you out, or worse, see you

go to jail? If you’re biased against me, then I’ve got nothing more to say.” Dorthy just glared at her, eyes red and

lips sealed.

Seeing Dorthy’s attitude soften, Rhoda let out a sigh of relief. Rupin’s voice came from behind, “What’s going on?”

Upon hearing Rupin’s voice, Rhoda quickly went to him and held his arm. “Rupin, Ms. Summers… seems to have

some sort of relationship with Mr. Austin. Makenna seems to have found out…”

Rupin turned his gaze to Chloe, Austin, and the chubby woman ready to charge at Chloe. He furrowed his brows.

“With Mr. Austin?”

“Mhm… Mr. Austin seems to have admitted it.”

Rupin frowned, “Good Lord!”

Had he known Chloe was this type of woman, he would’ve done something sooner. How could he let this chubby

middle–aged man get involved? Seeing the change in Rupin’s expression, Rhoda felt a sense of triumph and

relaxed, leaning affectionately against Rupin. Then she turned to a suddenly quiet Makenna. “Makenna, maybe you

got it wrong. Ms. Summers is loaded. That ring on her finger, maybe… she bought it herself. I don’t understand rich

people’s thinking. Buying a ring for herself is one thing, but wearing it on her ring finger… is she marrying herself?”

At this, Makenna looked at Chloe’s left hand again, her eyes widening “Bullshit! Marrying herself? It’s obviously

bought by a man! No matter what you say, she’s just a cunning woman, a cheap slut who seduces men!”

Chloe stood there, calm and composed, watching the drama unfold before her eyes. Her gaze finally landed on

Rhoda.

The sharp look made Rhoda feel a bit uneasy. But she knew Rupin’s expectations of Chloe had dropped significantly,

and his obsession with her wasn’t as intense as before. This plan could both ruin Chloe’s reputation and completely

shatter Rupin’s trust in her. A win–win strategy

With this thought, Rhoda straightened her back, maintained her haughty demeanor, and added a hint of malicious

joy.

Chloe remained cool and indifferent. She turned her gaze to Makenna. “I’ve said it many times. If you really want to

argue with me, go check, just like Dorthy suggested! All hotels require real–name registration. You can easily find

out who your husband shared a room with. There’s also CCTV footage! There are many ways to get to the truth!”

Makenna froze after hearing this, looking at Chloe’s calm demeanor. It seemed like she wasn’t lying. She even

proposed checking the information and the footage. Could it be….

Rhoda let go of Rupin’s hand, took a few steps forward, and stared at Chloe with a composed smile.

“Ms. Summers, as a key manager of the hotel, you must know the unwritten rule against leaking any guest’s

privacy. Aren’t you afraid of breaking the rule? Mr. Watson didn’t hire you to ruin the hotel’s image. Are you willing

to pay the hefty penalties?”

A faint sneer flickered in Chloe’s eyes. She slowly walked towards Rhoda, and upon seeing Rhoda’s slightly panicked

eyes, she stopped a few steps away. “What if I ruin the hotel’s image? If I dare to do it, I dare to face the

consequences! What about the penalties? Do you think I can’t afford them?”

Rhoda took a step back, “… Yes, you can afford it, someone will always pay for you!”

Chloe gave her a cold laugh. Makenna seemed to be provoked by Rhoda too. “Little bitch! Trying to get money from

my husband? You must be dreaming!”

‘Makenna, there’s a limit. Don’t tell me you’ve been silent this whole time without figuring anything out! Who called

you? Don’t you have doubts about :his?”

Makenna was taken aback, glancing at Rhoda, who quickly averted her gaze to hide her panic and fear.

Makenna pursed her lips, still glaring at Chloe, “Stop trying to sow discord and change the topic. You seem decent

on the surface, but you’re the best at Jeceiving men! I’m not an idiot, no matter who told me, you seducing my

husband is wrong!”

Seeing Makenna’s determination, Rhoda chimed in, “Ms. Summers, I think we should prevent this issue from

escalating… After all, you’re in charge here. If

were you, I’d prioritize the hotel’s reputation, regardless of my responsibility… Oh!”

All the while, Chloe had been smiling at Makenna, not even glancing at Rhoda. Suddenly, she swung her hand and

slapped Rhoda across the face.

Rhoda was caught off guard, letting out a yelp as she was shoved to the side. She staggered, almost tripping over,

but managed to steady herself at the ast moment. Clutching her stinging cheek, she turned her head, her eyes

bloodshot as she glared at Chloe.

Chloe’s eyes narrowed slightly, giving her a frosty stare.

You’re talking too much.”
