Chapter 226
Chapter 226
Manuel got so scared that he jumped and started looking for the switch all over the room.
Finally, his quick wit saved the day – he poured some water out of the flower vase, and the alarm finally
stopped. Afterward, he collapsed on the sofa, he was both physically and mentally exhausted.
A wake–up call?
Chloe was indeed awesome!
Having resolved a major issue, Chloe arranged the next big thing – she contacted Rose to attend
tonight’s dinner party.
Rose was in her office, she sipped coffee and browsed the latest news online.
When Chloe called, she had just come across an interesting piece of news.
“Chloe, what’s up?”
“Err, make sure you’re free tonight. I’m taking you to meet someone.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRose replied while clicking her mouse, “Sure, I’ve been pretty relaxed lately. But who am I going to
meet?”
“Um, my boyfriend.”
“Oh, okay, boyfriend….”
Rose continued talking. It took her a moment to process the last sentence, “Boyfriend?”
“‘Yeah.”
*… Chloe, you haven’t had a fallen from grace, have you?” Rose asked after a pause.
“Do you think I would introduce him to you if I had?”
“That’s true.” Rose nodded, “Alright, I’ll be there tonight. I can’t wait to see this lucky guy! Oh, and I had
someone bring me lipstick from the F Country I’ll bring you two tonight.”
“Great. Let’s go together after work.”
“Okay… Rose agreed and then glanced at the news on her computer screen, laughing, “Have you
seen the news online?”
Chloe was puzzled, “What news?”
“Keira fainted in front of the Olson Group building.”
Chloe paused, “Really?”
“Putting on a show perhaps?” Rose guessed.
Chloe opened her laptop, leaned back in her chair, and chuckled, “Not entirely. She’s had a hard time
with everything happening these past few of days. Plus, not eating for two days and fainting is pretty
normal.”
Rose laughed when she recalled Chloe deliberately releasing the news at noon yesterday.
She had guessed Keira would faint from hunger without even being present- some next–level
scheming.
Hospital.
Keira had been given two bags of nutrients and woke up in the afternoon.
Lance sat by her bed and grabbed her hand when he noticed she had woken up.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Keira, you’re awake.”
Lance… where is this?” Keira’s voice was a bit hoarse. Her eyes scanned the surroundings, and she
had a rough idea of where she was.
Lance, “You fainted. Why haven’t you eaten for more than two days?”
Keira’s face was very delicate, her eyes filled with tears, people helplessly pitied her.
Lance, I… I couldn’t get in touch with you…You were still mad at me when you left, and I thought you’d
never talk to me again…”
As she spoke, tears streamed down her cheeks.
Lance wiped the tears from her eyes with a heartbroken expression, “Silly girl, you’re overthinking.
We’ve come so far. How could I give up on you so easily?”
“Then why didn’t you answer my calls?”
1 was busy at the company….
Keira still looked at him with tearful eyes; she had not quite believed his words.
Lance sighed, “Some of the investors wanted to withdraw their investments after yesterday’s exposed
photos… Several directors in the company have been making a fuss…
