Chapter 1297
“I’m not sure. The contest theme is definitely top secret, to be announced only when the contest starts.”
On the other end at Infinity Media, Jacob lounged on the couch, phone in hand, a hint of sarcasm and glee in his
voice.”
“Cool, as long as she can’t be Miles‘ model this time. Trying to attract attention with unattractive women, what a
genius move.”
Makeup artists were best at making ordinary women look beautiful! Such a contrast would stun and amazé
everyone. For women like Katie, the transformation would be incredibly noticeable.
As for Miles‘ skills, he always acknowledged them. From the last time he saw Katie in Hong Kong, he knew that if it
was Miles doing her face, he would definitely make her stand out. So, to ensure a third consecutive win, Jacob
absolutely wouldn’t allow Miles‘ participation this year to ruin his plans.
If he didn’t succeed this year, he would have to start over. He hated wasting time, especially on this matter.
Moreover, he wouldn’t allow him to turn their fate around by performing well in the Starlight International
competition. While he was around, it would be impossible for Miles to shine.
The recent car accident was just him being ignorant. It was a shame Miles was okay.
According to the hospital report, Katie suffered a severe head injury and would not regain consciousness for a
while, perhaps never. While it was unfortunate, as long as Miles missed this makeup contest, what did anyone else’s
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtlife or death have to do with him?
Without Katie as a model; Miles had already lost half of the contest. Even if he found a replacement model, how
could he fully focus on the contest with his shaken state of mind?
Meanwhile, in the mall, Wendy was shopping with Becky. With a relaxed expression, she said, “Tomorrow is the
makeup contest. We will face Starlight International head–on, under heavy media attention. Jacob is aiming for a
three–peat. He seems confident. I heard Chloe will be there too, you can enjoy her embarrassment.”
Becky picked up a piece of clothing and looked at it, her arrogant face full of disdain. That’s nothing. I just want that
woman to apologize in front of me! Just seeing her embarrassment doesn’t satisfy me!”
Wendy chuckled. “There will be many opportunities.”
Everyone knew that Chloe and her mother had challenged the authority of the Alonso family. It would be a piece of
cake for the Alonso family to deal with them. Wouldn’t there be plenty of opportunities to see Chloe’s downfall and
embarrassment?
When Becky heard Wendy’s words, she smiled contentedly. She was just a woman trying to fight the Alonso family,
wasn’t that asking for trouble?
Seeing her slowly getting into trouble was also a kind of enjoyment.
Becky, full of joy, picked up the skirt she had just seen and went into the fitting room.
Wendy looked around the store, but didn’t find anything she particularly liked, so she walked to a corner and took
out her phone. Several unread messages were showing on the chat software. When she saw the ID of the person
who sent the messages, her eyebrows furrowed, and when she clicked on it, she found a few pictures.
In the pictures were Chloe and Rose, with a city center hospital in the background.
Wendy browsed the photos, her face turned pale, and she felt very uneasy. In the photo, Chloe and Rose went into
the obstetrics and gynecology department. Their expressions subtly changed until they left the hospital, both
looking very happy and excited.
Clearly, they had received some good news.
What good news? Wasn’t Rose’s pregnancy already public? Why were they so happy about going to the hospital for
a pregnancy check–up?
There was a thought in her mind that she didn’t want to think or expect. She bit her lip hard and immediately called
the person. The call was quickly answered, and Wendy immediately asked, “What do you mean by those photos you
sent? Do you suspect that woman is pregnant?”
The other person replied, “Ms. Alonso, I’m just providing you with some references. I checked the person who
registered was a woman called Rose but look at their expressions… If it’s just Rose who’s pregnant, do they need to
be that happy? She’s been pregnant for several months, and suddenly found out she’s having twins? Also, look at
the last photo…”
Wendy clenched her teeth. She understood what the other person meant, but she just wanted a clear answer now.
Finding out about twins during pregnancy was impossible, so why were they so happy?
The last photo? She hung up and reopened the chat and clicked on the last photo, which still showed Chloe and
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRose looking very happy, but she couldn’t see what was different.
She looked at the photo for a long time but couldn’t find any clues. Her phone suddenly beeped. It was another
message from that person.
[See what Chloe is holding in her hand?]
She opened the photo again, zoomed in, and saw that Chloe seemed to be holding a piece of paper, only a corner
was visible. If you didn’t look carefully, you wouldn’t notice.
Coming out of the hospital with a piece of paper in her hand…
Wendy’s face instantly turned icy cold, and she began to feel a chill run through her body.
Chloe, could it be… Her eyes narrowed, and her heart tightened.
However, before she had time to calm her emotions, her phone rang again. Seeing the caller ID, Wendy’s eyes
wavered, and she immediately answered the call.
“Hello, Addie?”
“It’s me, Ms. Wendy,” came Addie’s anxious voice from the other end.
“Addie, what happened? I have something to ask you, I want to know…”
Wendy was dying to know what was up with Chloe, she was sure that if Chloe really had a bun in the oven, the
Harpers would be the first to know. Addie, being part of the Harper clan, must’ve been in the know!
But before she could finish her sentence, Addie cut her off desperately. “Ms. Wendy, I’m at my wit’s end, that’s why
I called you. Elizabeth kicked me out of the
Harper household. I’m really out on my ass here, I was wondering if you could…”
