Chapter 1376
Chloe glanced at her watch and then looked up with a faint smile, “You wanna talk reality with me? Well, I’m about
to give you a taste of reality.”
Her words and the slight smile on her face filled Wendy with a sense of dread. On instinct, Wendy was now
genuinely scared of any smile that suddenly appeared on Chloe’s face. Even a slight smile from her felt like
standing on the edge of a cliff
But what could she do now?
“Chloe, what are you up to now?” Presley stared at her coldly, “The reality is, no matter how good you are, I will
never accept you as my daughter–in–law! You let Damon easily give up the Harper Group, I will never forgive you
for this!”
Chloe’s gaze gradually cooled down, “Why are you labeling me like this? I remember that your attitude was not like
this in Hong Kong. You are changing your attitude now, simply because of Ms. Wendy’s incessant pestering. And
more importantly, you are afraid of the Alonso family. You were once the controller of the Harper Group, and being
scared like this by the Alonso family is just too ridiculous! If I were you, I would eliminate anyone who hinders me!
The friendship between the two families? You value them, but they threaten you with their family background!
What’s worth maintaining in such a friendship!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWendy’s face changed instantly, her voice sharp, “Chloe, you’re stirring up trouble here! It seems we’ve been too
lenient with you and your mother, leading to your brazenness and lawlessness! Do you think we, the Alonso family,
are easy to bully? You’re making too much of a fuss, thinking you’re great because you bought Infinity Media?
Believe me, one day, I will make your Starlight International disappear from this world! I want to see how much
longer you can be arrogant in front of me!”
As Wendy spoke, she seemed to be imagining Chloe’s future downfall, and her face became increasingly smug.
However, Chloe just scoffed, “Still relying on the Alonso family, huh?”
Wendy lifted her chin, arrogance written all over her face. “So what? At least I have the Alonso family. What about
you?”
“All I need is myself.” Chloe raised an eyebrow, casually responding. She then pulled her hand away from Damon’s
and walked over to the multimedia console. “Presley being scared doesn’t mean I’m scared. I rely on myself, and if
I want, I can have even ten Alonso families.” Chloe’s words, to most of the people present, seemed quite arrogant.
They all acknowledged her capabilities, but the wealth of the Alonso family was not to be overlooked. Some of the
people present had experienced more than half of their lives, and they had a profound understanding of the
current state of society. Money, power, influence, these were the laws of survival in this world. Chloe had no reason
to underestimate the Alonso family…
Wendy looked coldly at these people, then scornfully at Chloe, “You really never give up until you are consigned to
the grave.”
Standing not far away, Damon watched as Wendy turned her head to look at him and said softly, “Damon, I know
my presence here today will make you angry, including the words I just said. But isn’t what I said the truth?
Grandpa has always valued you the most, and he would never harm you.”
However, Damon’s gaze was always following Chloe; he never looked at her.
Wendy bit her lip tightly, tears about to spill out, “Damon, I am the lady of the Alonso family, and there is really no
need for me to do all this. But why am I still doing it? I just don’t want you to regret it in the future. What I can give
you, I believe is definitely not less than what Chloe can give, and there’s also the help from the Alonso family. Oh
right, Damon, as you know, my dad is preparing a big project recently, if this project succeeds…”
“We’re in a board meeting right now, what are you doing?!” Presley had been watching Chloe. Seeing her walk to
the multimedia console and turn on the TV, he immediately snapped.
Everyone was puzzled, they began whispering, but when they saw the news on the TV their voices gradually died
down.
It was two forty in the afternoon. The camera was on the arrival gate.
When Cole appeared at the gate, Wendy’s face immediately lit up with excitement. “Dad’s back! He’s back from his
business trip in M Country!” Her excited voice made the atmosphere in the room tense.
“Grandpa, do you see? Dad’s back from his business trip!” Wendy excitedly grabbed her grandpa’s arm and shook
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmit happily.
Presley also smiled satisfactorily, “Perfect timing. This will show some overly confident people just how
incomparable they are to the Alonso family.”
Wendy smiled, then looked at Chloe who was standing by the multimedia console. Her choice to turn on the
multimedia at this time was really helpful.
“I really have to thank Chloe this time, for letting me see my father returning home first hand.” Wendy said.
Chloe turned around and smiled at her, “You’re welcome.”
Seeing her calm and composed demeanor, Wendy hated her from the bottom of her heart. She gave her a cold
glance, then turned her gaze back to the TV.
As soon as Cole appeared at the airport, reporters quickly swarmed him.
“Hello, I’m a reporter from the P City newspaper, may I ask you…”
“Hello, I am…”
In the camera, Cole’s face turned very serious when he saw the sudden appearance of the reporters.
His already unhappy expression was indescribable now.
He had not expected to encounter such a scene when he returned from his business trip abroad! And his
whereabouts were accurately exposed; it was clearly intentional.
“Please make way! I’m not accepting interviews!” His voice was brimming with authority, but the reporter didn’t
give a hoot. Instead, she shot back, “Reportedly, this deal is a biggie for the Alonso family, and if it goes off without
a hitch, it’s gonna be a major coup. Can you spill the beans on what the project is all about?”
