Chapter 123

Chapter 123 In an instant, Vincent’s face drained of blood.

By the time he realized what was happening, Chloe had already attacked and the knife was at his neck.

The Butterfly Blade was notorious for its lethal capabilities and its ostentatiousness. It achieved the perfect balance between danger and extravagance.

As a girl, she nonchalantly presented this thing to him in greeting. It was cold and unfeeling!

“Don’t bother me, Vincent.”

Chloe narrowed her eyes slightly and tenderly tapped his cheek with her sharp blade. “Even if all the men in the world were gone, I still wouldn’t pick you.”

“Then, if only Joseph and I remain in this world... Who would you choose?” Vincent asked, his voice trembling as he fought to catch his breath.

“That won’t be you,” Chloe said disdainfully.

Crash Young Master Anderson, proud and arrogant as ever, had his heart shattered.

At the moment, the office door swung open.

“Chloe, you are...” Oscar stood at the door, his expression one of shock.

*

www Chloe’s pupils shrank. She quickly tucked away the butterfly knife and then smiled innocently. “Big brother, why didn’t you let me know you were here?”

This woman’s face had transformed – had she mastered playing the opera?!

Vincent stiffened his body, then cast a deep, red-eyed glance at Chloe before turning and walking away in a daze.

Oscar glanced at Vincent from the corner of his eyes and noticed that the arrogance and pride in his bones had completely weakened, causing him to frown in confusion, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

In the whole of Medo, Chloe, the only woman, was the one who could make Young Master Anderson so exasperated. “Big brother!”

“How are you doing? Have you healed from your injuries?” Chloe said, embracing Oscar with her arms.

“I don’t even need to bandage it up anymore. What do you reckon?”

“It’s just a flesh wound. Your big brother isn’t that feeble, right?” Oscar queried as he spin her around like when they were children.

If word got out about what his big brother had done in the past, Stefan would tremble, even if he knew about it, Who would have imagined that the leader of the biggest gang in the Eastern Kingdom, who had sway over Sea Gate, Medo, and the Japanese and Southeast Asian gangs, was this kind and gentle person standing before her?

Her big brother suddenly stepped down from his position as speaker, washed his hands of gold, and distanced himself from gangster matters. He devoted himself to the gods, cultivated his body, and completely severed ties with the dark forces.

all Chloe was at a loss to understand how a man who had never taken a life, intimidated the vulnerable, and abstained from smoking and drinking, could become the leader of a gang.

Beneath her big brother’s gentle smile, there must be a hidden secret.

“What has occurred between you and Mr. Anderson?”

Oscar smiled faintly as he proclaimed, “He may not be concerned with others right now, but he is very genuine towards you.”

“Even if you don’t give him an opportunity, you shouldn’t have resorted to using a knife to slap his face. Boys need their dignity, not to mention that he is the future inheritor of Anderson Group.”

“If I don’t do this, he’ll keep badgering me.”

“They say men have no shame. Vincent is clearly shameless when pursuing me. If I don’t put a stop to it, he’ll still have to keep smiling at me. When will this ever end?”

“In summary, I have reverted to my original identity as a Young Lady. I don’t want to cause any trouble for Joseph’s side. I know this may be too much this time, but there’s no other way. It’s better to endure short-term pain if it means avoiding greater harm.”

“Sometimes, 1 muse that it would be wonderful if my sister and Raya could join forces, Oscar sighed softly.

1V3 Chapter 123 “Hmph, that won’t cut it. I’ve gone so far as to dig a hole and bury Raya myself.”

After flirting with her big brother for a while, Chloe was feeling a bit fatigued. She then collapsed onto Oscar’s leg Oscar’s lips curled up slightly at the corners, and his slender fingers lightly massaged her temples.

“Big bro, you came lookin’ for me. Got any more info?” Chloe closed her eyes, a contented expression on her face.

“Chloe is the most intelligent. You must have figured it out.”

“Have you considered a method to address the Sawle Group?” Chloe inquired in a languid tone.

“If you’re weary, I can lend a hand, Miss Brown,” Oscar said, still smiling, unable to make out her feelings.

“No, I’m definitely taking care of Grace myself. If I didn’t, how sorry would her life be?” Chloe’s eyes narrowed, resembling a cat’s, and her gaze was cold and piercing.

Should Grace have dared to touch fate’s head, she would have found herself with a mouthful of sand and choking to death!

Oscar, his gentle eyes curving, handed Chloe a kraft paper file folder he had brought with him.

“This is...”

Chloe took the document doubtfully, skimmed through it carefully, and suddenly became spirited.

“The Sawle Group triumphed over Medo’s new project in Balin City, and Director Sawle assigned it to Aubree. This venture is estimated to be worth ten billion, and there are numerous locations that can be operated covertly, and it can also broader his connections in Medo”

“Most significantly, Aubree is likely to use this project to elevate her standing within the group to the same level as Joseph.

Despite being an actress, she is highly ambitious. With Director Sawle’s favor, she is always striving to gain control of the Sawle Group”

“Swallowing Sawle Group? Haha, she’s really got some nerve to consider it. Does she have such a huge appetite? Isn’t she scared of the consequences?”

Chloe gazed at the data in her grasp, and her eyes glowed with a passionate radiance, “Grandpa has done a tremendous job in advancing the family business. Even if Joseph is not able to protect it, it’s not Aubree’s place to criticize it.”

“You should take a cursory look at this information tonight. At 1 PM two days from now, Sawle Group and his wife have invited Mayor Savor to meet at Sawle Group’s golf course in the western suburbs of Medo, in order to further foster the collaboration between Balin City and them”

Oscar draped his arm around Chloe’s shoulder and gave her a look that suggested she had been entrusted with a vital mission.

“It’s up to you, little sis, whether I can get revenge for my big brother or not.”

“Isk, forget it. You’re my flesh and blood brother. Do you really think I’m unaware of what you’re scheming?”

Chloe tilted her little head and leaned against Oscar’s broad shoulder. “You know that with my personality, I’m not going to let this slide. If you think about it, I might as well do it. Why don’t you help me take care of everything so I can get my satisfaction? Just think of it as encouraging a kid to have fun.”

“Chloe, don’t embarrass me. Show me some respect.” Oscar pinched her little face.

“Big brother, I’m all grown up now. I’m twenty-four years old and I’ve already been through a divorce.”

Chloe spun around and gazed at him earnestly. “You and your eldest brother have already given up too much for me. From now on, let me be the one to look after you. You two should be able to live your lives without restraint.”

*I, Chloe, will take on the Thorp Group’s responsibilities for the day!”

Upon returning home after being humiliated by Joseph during the day, Grace called Aubree in tears, vomiting bitter water.

“You deserve it!”

“I told you to restrain your rage. Joseph is still angry right now. Don’t reach out to him first, but you didn’t heed my advice!”

Aubree was livid.

“Now that you have a ‘red face’ and a ‘cold shoulder, who do you blame? It’s all your own doing! What’s the point of ‘weeping and wailing”?”

“But, Auntie, that Chloe has made it to the door! Joseph has brought her back to Mazeland Manor!”

“She’s riding on my neck... How can I possibly take this?” Grace exclaimed in distress.

“Even if you don’t want to accept it, you have to accept it! I get what Joseph said that day. Why don’t you get it?”

“If you want to be his woman, you have to be able to handle a situation as important as the Prime Minister. If you’re so jealous, you’ll either cry or cause a commotion. All the effort I put into creating an image of a noble lady for you is wasted!”

2/3 10-53 Chapter 123 “Your aim is to be the Second Young Mistress of the Sawle Group, not to get involved in a romantic entanglement with Joseph Even if Chloe urinates on your head, it will be worth it if you can accomplish your goal!”

“But auntie...”

“Okay! I’ll take care of your affairs. I’m still occupied with the Board of Directors situation at the moment. Please don’t disturb me for now.”

Aubree coldly ended the call.

Grace sat motionless on the bed, her anger so intense that she almost crushed the dark screen.

At that moment, another call came in.

It was a number unknown to me.

Grace wiped away her tears and, in a foul temper, picked it up. “Who is it!”

“Ashley, it’s been a while since we last spoke. How are you faring in Medo?”

Nialzuct’s pure English flowed into her ears with a mischievous and oily grin.

“It’s... It’s you...” Grace’s face paled as she posed the question hesitantly.

Ashley was the name she adopted while studying abroad.

Since returning to Joseph’s side, Grace had severed all ties with the chaotic social circles she had been a part of in Nialzuct. She had also blocked all inbs, changed her email address and phone number, effectively drawing a line between her and her former promiscuous social life.

Surprisingly, the man actually found her!

“I really miss you. Can you come out and see me? Are you coming to me, or should I come and find you? Darling?”

The man’s tone was menacingly threatening.

Grace’s silk dress was drenched in cold sweat, as if an invisible hand had clamped around her neck, making it difficult for her to breathe.

“Where are you? I’m coming to see you!”
