Chapter 279 Alice watched Chloe being dismissed by Mrs. Yates, a smirk playing on her lips. Did Chloe think playing the victim would work on these wealthy women?
Ethan told Chloe, âHelp take photos.â Sheâd offended Mrs. Wilson and Mrs. Yates, it was best to keep her away.
Feeling resentful, Chloe realized she wasnât truly accepted. If it were Alice, things would be different. She was increasingly bitter.
Seeing Ethan stand beside Alice, she wanted to smash her camera. He was clearly supporting Alice. Sheâd planned the event;
she should be the star, but Alice had taken it all.
Noah threatened her.âChloe be smart. If you offend the Wilsons and implicate the family, Pig Brother will kick you out.â
Chloe, seething, took photos.
After the group photo, the auction ended. Many people surrounded Mrs. Wikon. Alice noticed Mrs. Wilsonâs discomfort.âMrs.
Wilson, letâs go to the rest area.â âThank you.â Mrs. Wilson appreciated Aliceâs help.
Alice brought Mrs. Wilson and Mrs. Yates to the rest area, providing Mrs. Yates with her favorite desserts. The Windhams followed.
Mrs. Yates, tasting the dessert, looked at Alice.âThe real Windham heiress is more sensible than the adopted one.â
Chloeâs face darkened.
Ethan apologized.âOur apologies for Chloeâs shortcomings.â
Mrs. Wilson said coldly, âApologize to Alice. You treated her badly.â
Chloe looked at Mrs. Yates; it wasnât her fault.
Mrs. Yates quickly explained to Mrs. Wilson, âI was testing them. I didnât mean to bully Miss Windham. Iâve never seen such a family.â She needed to distance herself, seeing Mrs. Wilsonâs favoritism towards Alice.
Ethan stopped Chloe from arguing. âChloe, you were wrong. Apologize to Alice. He couldnât offend Mrs. Wilson.
Chloe was reluctant.
Mrs. Wilson threw the dessert on the floor.âSame conditions: Pick it up and eat it, and weâre done.â
Chloeâs eyes welled up. Why were they targeting her?
Mrs. Yates sneered. âThe Chens must not know the Windhamsâ character. This is embarrassing.â Mrs. Wilson added, âThe Chensâ choice of sonâinâlaw is questionable. Whereâs Mrs. Chen? Is she ashamed and didnât come?â
Ethanâs face changed; Mrs. Chen wasnât there.
Ethan whispered to Chloe,âChloe, I know youâre obedient. Iâll compensate you.â He couldnât offend the Chens.
Chapter 779 Chloe, seeing Ethanâs expression, picked up the dessert, trembling, the are a small bit, like it was poison.
She looked at Alice, crying âIs this better?â
Alice sneered.âDonât do this again. You reap what you sow. Chloe had forced Alice to eat from the floor; now, the boomerang, had hit her.
Mrs. Wilson said to Alice, âAs long as youâre okay. I knew you were a good girl when we me Ethan was surprised.âAlice, did you know Mrs. Wilson before? Why was she so protective of Alice?
Alice said, âI met Mrs. Wilson the hospital after Caleb bear up.â Mrs. Wilson said, âYes, Alice helped me at the hospital. She looked at Ethan. Treat Alice fairly. I like her. I wouldâve come if I knew she was being mistreated.â
Alice was surprised by Mrs. Wilsonâs support. Ethan said politely, Mrs. Wilson, Alice is my only sister. Weâve reconciled, right, Alice?â
Alice thanked Mrs. Wilson for attending information her contact to Aliceâs Aliceâs phone before leaving Mrs. Wilson added her Mrs. Yates looked at Alice, sensing something unusual about Mrs. Wilsonâs favoritism After they left, someone peeked in and called Jackson. Brother, Momâs gone.â âI saw.â Jackson had just learned from Wilson Mo about Mrs. Wilson attending a charity auction. It was Aliceâs auction. He rushed there but hesitated to approach Alice;
he didnât know if Mrs. Wilson had told her the truth.
He asked, âWas she bullied?â
âYes. Mrs. Yates was awful, forcing Big Sister to eat from the floor. I was going to yell at her, but Mom intervened. âJohn Wilson recounted the event.âMomâs a fighter; I didnât get a chance.â Jackson frowned; Mrs. Wilson had defended Alice.
âBrother, charmed by Big Sister. You was can be together openly.â Mom âShut up!â He knew it wasnât that simple. He went to the rest area. Some things needed to be said.
The rest area was quiet. Chloe had vomited and rinsed her mouth. She approached Ethan, redâeyed.âBig Brother, Mrs. Yates deliberately bullied me.â
âChloe, I know you suffered. What compensation do you want?â Ethan couldnât blame Mrs.
Yates.
Chloe said, âBig Brother, I planned this event. Let me handle the donations. I want to improve Mrs. Yatesâs impression of me.â
Sheâd lost face, but not the moneyâover ten million! Noah objected.âNo. Itâs inappropriate.â
âWhy not? Itâs fine.â Ethan looked at Alice.âChloe suffered; let her handle this.â Alice said coldly, âGet lost!â
