Chapter 145
A Billion-Rich Woman Was Chased by Her EX-Husband
Chapter 145 Had Jerome not brought Chloe here, she would not have been aware of the expansive rose garden in the southern suburbs of Medo.
Xavy Group had no claim to this place; it was solely Jeromeâs private property. Spanning hundreds of acres, the flower fields were planted exclusively with Damascus Roses.
Under the dark and colorful setting sun, like an oil painting, the lush green and delicate pink roses were beautiful. Chloe was captivated by the warm and vibrant scene.
As Chloe watched, young couples strolled leisurely through the garden, taking photos and internet celebrities doing live broadcasts. The tranquil beauty of the scene soothed her tense body and mind, which had been strained from days of work.
The tourists were drawn to their remarkable appearance.
Anyone would believe that they were a perfect pair, a match made in heaven.
Chloe bent down, her nose tip twitching, and tenderly picked up a rose, as if caressing her loverâs cheek. Her face was intoxicated by its sweet scent.
Jeromeâs eyes dimmed slightly, and her lips curved up. âChloe is as gorgeous as can be. Sheâs lovelier than a blossom.â
Chloeâs beautiful eyes widened slightly, and she replied with a generous smile, âIâm flattered by Fourth Young Master Xavierâs kind words, but Iâm already aware of my beautyâ
âIf I call you Chloe like when I was a kid, can you also call me Jerome like before?â Jerome stepped closer to her, his eyes gleaming with anticipation.
Chloe, her almond-shaped eyes flashing, turned her back to him, still feeling a little embarrassed.
Jerome had remained the same as when he was a child, yet his feelings for her had never altered. However, she had completely removed herself from that recollection. When they reunited, Jerome was almost unrecognizable to her.
Therefore, she paused for a moment and then softly uttered. âOnce we get to know each other better, Iâll.â
âI reckon weâll become as close as we were when we were kids. Iâm looking forward to it,â Jerome said, his eyes shining with feeling.
Chloe sensed an odd atmosphere, so she shifted the conversation and asked earnestly, âFourth Young Master, whatâs the annual yield of roses in your field? Whatâs the cost of cultivating them? Is any corporate entity signing an exclusive contract with you?â
âMiss Thorp.â Jerome adjusted his glasses and smiled, âwould you like to discuss collaborating with me?â
âTo tell you the truth, I do have this idea.â
As soon as Chloe entered, she spotted a golden business opportunity!
Since returning to KS Group, she had always been eager to open up a female market and create makeup and skin care products with roses as the theme. However, Stefan asked her to prioritize strengthening KS WORLD, leaving hier with little time and energy to invest in her project.
At this moment, the rose garden has ignited the fighting spirit of the Young Mistress!
âThe Damascus Rose discovered the moniker of the Turks Rose. Ancient Greek legends depict roses as the embodiment of the Goddess of Love â Aphrodite and the Goddess of Plants Adonis. This flower is a symbol of love and beauty, and carries an incredibly romantic connotation.â
â
Chloeâs eyes were bright and clear, and she was very familiar with the Damascus Rose. âDamascus Rose oil was highly valued for its physical and mental benefits, and although air transportation was expensive, there were few manors in the country that grew this type of rose.â
âGiven the four rare resources, I earnestly hope we can form a strategic partnership. You provide the roses, and Iâll add more value to them.â
âCollaborate with me. This rose field isnât just for people to admire; it will benefit all the women in the nation in the long run. It will become a renowned brand that is beloved by women. It wonât diminish for years, and the profit is incalculable.â Jerome gazed at her intently, his handsome visage and tender smile deeply etched in her memory.
He had not paid any attention to the business experiences she had shared, despite the fact that many people had been interested in his rose field over the past two years, yet he had never even glanced at them.
This sea of flowers was like a lively gathering in Gatsbyâs, all to entice her to come alone.
Seeing that Jerome was staring at her with rapt attention and did not answer for a long time, Chloe thought that this sudden declaration of love would be taken seriously by him, so she laughed heartily and said, âI know, my suggestion was pretty sudden Chapter 145 âFurthermore, my project is not insignificant. Fourth Young Master can take his time to consider it. Iâm not in a rush.â
Outside Rose Manor.
Jordan stood in the lingering light of the setting sun, gazing at the blossoming roses in the sky, his emotions a complex mix.
He was well aware that Navy Group and Thorp Group had a close bond, and Directors Xavier and Thorp were like brothers.
Fourth Young Master Xavier had a special place in young mistressâ heart, and it was obvious that he was taken with their young mistress.
The Young Mistress had always kept a distance from the opposite sex, so her handling of the Anderson situation had been unrealistic and harsh However, she didnât seem to reject Fourth Young Master Xavier so much that she was even willing to go on a date with him.
The Fourth Young Master had saved her last time, of course, but he still had a vague feeling that the Young Mistress was especially lenient toward him.
Could it be...
âI wish for a personâs heart...
Jordanâs heart suddenly contracted upon thinking of that sentence, and he sighed helplessly.
Three black luxury cars came from afar, arriving at this time.
Jordanâs gaze grew cold upon seeing the Maybach at the head of the car, its tag alone enough to evoke such a reaction.
It was Sawle Groupâs men, that was Joseph!
Max stopped the luxury car and, with respect, got out of the passenger seat and opened the door.
Joseph, with a frown, elegantly tied the buttons of his suit with both hands as he walked down, his pitch-black, spotless handmade leather shoes straight and his long legs heaven-defying.
âDarn it, what rotten luck!â Jordan was so frustrated when he saw the attractive face of the man.
A few seconds later, a slender, pale hand slowly emerged from the car.
âBrother Joseph, could you lend me a hand?â
Joseph stood beside the car, hesitating for a moment, his eyebrows furrowed. Then, extending his hand to Grace, he invited. her to join him.
Grace hastily seized his strong and solid hand, as if fearful that he would alter his decision in the next instant.
A gentle smile spread across her face as her heart raced with joy!
Although Josephâs eyes remained as cold as ever, she was confident that she could regain the watery tenderness he had once shown herl Jordanâs eyes filled with contempt as he watched Joseph and Grace walking hand-in-hand towards the manorâs entrance, too lazy to scold Joseph The rotten luck was just multiplied by two!
âBrother Joseph, I wanted to admire the flowers, so I followed you here... Are you feeling weighed downL Grace was full of tears and looked like a resentful woman who had been wronged, but she squeezed the manâs hand tightly.
âOtherwise... Iâd better go back. Iâm scared Iâll be a burden to you...â
Joseph came to Rose Manor today not to admire the flowers, but rather to conduct a project inspection.
He wanted to come and see the vast expanse of the largest Damascus Rose field in Medo and the entire province. To gain a better understanding of the roses and the soil, he specially asked two botanists to join him.
He would negotiate with the owner of Rose Manor to obtain the support of the raw materials for the female skin care products that Sawle Group was about to create, if all aspects of the comprehensive index were good enough.
As a result, Grace heard of this matter and requested to accompany him.
Joseph had to do his utmost to help stabilize her emotions during her recovery, given that she had just been diagnosed with shortsightedness and was severely depressed, so he had no choice but to agree.
âItâs fine.â
The manâs voice was hushed and his gaze remained as dismal as before. âThe doctor suggested that it would be beneficial for your ailment to go out and take in some natural beauty.â
âBrother Joseph... Thank you, and you still show such care for me...â on his shoulder.
seemed to be on the brink of tears as she leaned Chapter 145 Josepliâs eyebrows drew together like a sword, and his whole being radiated a strong rejection of the woman.
âMr. Sawle, look! Donât you see Miss Thorpâs secretary?!â Max opened his eyes wide and whispered excitedly to Joseph.
Josephâs eyes suddenly shot up, and he was taken aback.
Lying motionless beneath the stiff yellow suit, his chest trembling with some kind of mysterious excitement, his heart pounding wildly.
Jordan and Chloe were so close that it was certain Chloe was at Rose Manor Garden.
Was she here to admire the flowers?
Joseph gritted his teeth and shook his head in the next second.
No, this did not fit her aggressive personality.
That woman was surely here to thwart him!
