Chapter 104
A Billion-Rich Woman Was Chased by Her EX-Husband
Chapter 104 Chloe stood in the middle of the empty living room, and the room was quiet.
She fumbled to turn on the light, and her voice was urgent and hoarse. âBig brother? Big brother, are you there?â
At this time, there was a faint sound in the bedroom.
Chloeâs heart was lifted, and she shouted as she walked in quickly. âBig brother! How are you? Where are you feeling unwellâ
âCh... Chloe... donât come over!â Oscarâs trembling voice came over, carrying heavy breathing.
âBig brother! What happened to you? Donât scare me!â
Chloeâs face instantly lost all color. Just as she was about to rush in, the door opened with a bang.
Under the dim light, Oscarâs entire body was drenched as if he had been fished out of the sea, his handsome face flushed red as if aflame.
His suit was removed, revealing a white shirt that was soaked and clinging to his muscular frame. The front of the shirt was open, exposing skin that was flushed a deep red, stirring her senses.
wide âBig brother... you...
âI... was drugged...â
âI took a cold shower and soaked myself in cold water... But this drug is too strong... Itâs useless!â
âHow could it be like this?â Chloe was full of anger, but more of it was panic.
She had outstanding medical abilities, making it a breeze for her to even open peopleâs heads alive. Yet, when confronted with her own brother who was under the influence of drugs, she was at a loss.
âChloe... This is a trap. Leave this room immediately... and lock the door... I can solve it myself!â Oscarâs breathing became heavier and his eyes were red.
His misty eyes fell on Chloeâs exposed arm... He even uncontrollably developed a desire that made him fear.
âNo, we canât drag it on any longer... something bad will happen!â
âBig bro! I canât let you be! Iâm here to help. Iâll dial for an ambulance and weâll head to the hospital right away!â
Chloe had never seen Oscar in such pain before, and she was almost about to cry!
She was just about to run over to help him when she heard a bang â
Oscar used his bare hands to break the vase at the foot of the door!
Then, he grabbed a piece of sharp tile and clenched it tightly in his palm. Even when blood flowed out of his fingers, he still refused to let go.
âBig... Big Brother!â Chloe was extremely distressed, and tears appeared at the end of her eyes.
She knew that Oscar would not be able to hold on much longer.
He had hurt himself just to protect her!
âChloe... Big Brother, please leave quickly!â
Oscar shot his eyes, which had been devoured by desire, and roared, âLetâs go!â
The banquet hall was full of singing and dancing.
Stefan was chatting happily with Rory in front, and some people who wanted to curry favor with Sawle Group did not dare to go forward for a while.
Director Thorpâs aura was so strong, like that of an Emperor, that it was impossible for small characters like them to be taken seriously; they were destined to be laughed at.
Rory drank some warm wine and was in a good mood, so he invited the children to sit together.
Joseph and Skyler were invited by Secretary Webb to sit with Stefan.
âStefan, what do you think of my grandson?â Rory was like an old child, winking at Stefan.
*Mr. Sawle is your grandson, so le naturally surpasses you.â Stefan smiled faintly Jake frowned and coughed, silently wondering how this person had made his family business so big with such low EQ Joseph was Jakeâs son. If he wanted to praise Joseph, he should at least praise Jake first, so how could he directly skip Jake 1/3 Chapter 104 Haha... Joseph canât hold a candle to me when I was young! Back then, I had more finesse than him. I have a lot of acumen!â
âMy grandson has a good heart and a hard head! No matter what, he wonât listen to me!â Rory sighed bitterly.
Joseph lowered his eyes and took a sip of tea with a cold face.
âDad, Joseph isnât as bad as you think. Over the past few years, heâs been president and everyone has seen his work in the group. Among the younger generation, Joseph is seen as having done a good job. Jake gave Joseph a rare compliment.
He was attempting to preserve his pride, as he could not be outdone by his rival.
âTsk. shouldnât this be his job? Shouldnât the president be exemplary and have a good vision? Otherwise, even if heâs my grandson, Iâll pull him down and let someone competent take over!â
Rory had always been resentful towards Jake, so when he found an opportunity, he had to give him a beating.
âOld Master Sawle, as you would say, the qualified young people in Medo are as rare as phoenix feathers and qilin horns. Mr.
Sawle is truly remarkable and can be seen as a role model for the younger generationâ Stefan smiled and spoke sincerely.
After all, after Joseph took over, Sawle Groupâs performance was several times better than before. Coupled with the bold and decisive reform, Sawle Group became the leading financial group in Medo in just three years.
Stefan could see that Old Master was secretly praising him, but he was actually satisfied with this grandson.
âWow! It seems that you really admire my linle grandson, Stefan?â
âHow about our two families become in-laws? What do you think?â Rory grinned and approached Stefan.
Everyone: ?!
The Old Masterâs words caused a drastic shift in the expressions of the Sawle Groupâs parents, Skyler almost choked on her tea when she heard them.
âGrandpa, donât mess around!â Josephâs expression stiffened, and his brows sank.
Stefan was also secretly shocked.
*Stefan, I remember that you had three daughters before. Have you had any more daughters in recent years?â Rory asked seriously.
âItâs still those three girls. I have nine children. Itâs enough. I donât have any plans to add family members in the future.â
âAh, are the three daughters married?
Stefan gave an awkward smile. âMy sixth daughter, Fran, has already been married off overseas. My youngest daughter, Kiran, is still in school. Sheâs still so young; I want her to be able to enjoy her childhood for a few more years.â
âThen, there is another one, the one you love the most! What is her name?â
âThat is my eighth daughter, Chloe. Stefanâs expression became gentle.
Hearing this name, Josephâs hand that was holding a teacup trembled slightly, his expression even more gloomy.
âYes, yes! Itâs Chloe! I remember seeing her when she was so little! She is really a cute and sensible girl!â
âI estimate that Chloe is about twenty-four or twenty-five years old now. Did she marry?â Rory asked.
âNot yet...â
âWhat do you think of our Joseph?â
Stefan was completely speechless. Why was the old man so unreasonable? Could it be that he did not see that he did not want to marry his daughter to Jakeâs son?
Humph, he really dared to think about itl *Grandpa. I am going to get married soon.â
Joseph was furious when he thought of Chloe. He gritted his teeth and said, âEven if I am not married and have no girlfriend, I canât have any possibility with Miss Chloelâ
Just as Rory was about to speak, Stefan frowned and couldnât help but say, âMr. Sawle, I donât understand what you are saying.
Do you think that our Chloe is not good enough for you?â
âSheâs my apple of my eye. Even the son of the Prime Minister and the Crown Prince of the royal family came to propose marriage, but I feel theyâre not up to the mark. Where did Mr. Sawle get the assurance from? You havenât even laid eyes on Chloe, and you just outright rejected her? Isnât that a bit too hasty?â
If not for Old Master Sawle being present, Stefan would have said it even more harshly.
The younger generation was really frivolous!
Chapter 104 âMiss Chloe is very outstanding. We have fought before in the business field. She is smart and wise, bold and courageous.
She is not inferior to men.â
Joseph was calm, âIt is just that our personalities are not compatible. This is a barrier that can not be broken. There is no way to force a marriage.â
âIf I can meet Miss Chloe one day, I think we should be very good business partners.â
In a few words, it was reasonable, and Stefanâs expression was a little better.
âWhat do you want to do one day? Just find a time tomorrow and I will arrange it. Let Joseph and Chloe meet and get to know each other. Maybe there is a misunderstanding! Itâs senled!â Rory waved his hand and directly made the decision.
In order to prevent him from marrying Grace, Old Master was willing to go this far!
Josephâs handsome face was full of black clouds. Just as he wanted to decisively refuse, Aubree finally said with red eyes, âDad, Joseph is going to marry Grace soon. Isnât it inappropriate for you to introduce Miss Thorp to Joseph at this time?â
âIf I say itâs suitable, then it is, incidentally, they havenât tied the knot yet.â
âMarriage is no different from promoting cooperation. Before signing the contract, everything can be changed!â
âDad, the news of Joseph and Graceâs marriage has already been spread. If there are more problems at this time, how will the outside world view Miss Thorp?â
âMiss Thorp is the apple of Director Thorpâs eye. We, Sawle Group, canât humiliate her like this!â Aubree laughed angrily.
âAubreel Speak less!â Jake was afraid that her words would anger Old Master, so he quickly pulled her.
âYou! Cough, cough, cough...â
Rory was so angry that his chest was blocked. He coughed in pain and his face turned red.
Stefan saw everything and drank tea quietly.
Ha, this Sawle family was really messy. Who was crazy enough to marry their daughter into this tiger wolf nest?
Seeing that Old Master was coughing more and more violently, Joseph and his father and Secretary Webb came to comfort him.
âI donât want you to hang around me! Where is Raya? Get Raya to accompany me!â Roryâs blood was boiling, and his face was red as he shouted.
This Raya was like a shadow to Rory. It was really difficult for him to breathe without her.
âYes, where did Miss Lewis go? Why isnât she heret Skyler pretended to be surprised, but she was secretly laughing in her heart.
At this time, as if they had agreed on it. Grace slowly walked over.
âSister Grace, did you see Raya when you came here? Grandpa is looking for her.â Skyler asked hurriedly.
âL.. I saw it.â
âBut... I donât know if I should say it or not, Grace said bashfully, her eyes flashing.
