Chapter 244
A Billion-Rich Woman Was Chased by Her EX-Husband
Chapter 244 After Joseph left, Chloe helped the numb Jordan back to the office.
She laid down Jordanâs slightly trembling body, his forehead covered in sweat, pursed his lips tightly, and examined his limbs with both hands.
She was like a professional surgeon.
âBig sis... Iâm fine...â
Although Jordan was paralyzed, it was not that he could not move at all. Seeing that Chloe was so worried about him, he felt a lump in his throat. âIâm sorry... Iâve caused you trouble.â
âWhat are you talking about? You are also protecting me. Itâs just that you must not be so impulsive next time.â Chloe bent over his leg and seriously massaged it.
âI am not impulsive.â
Jordan sat up from the sofa with all his strength. His eyes were bright and stubborn. âEven if this kind of thing happens ten thousand times, I will rush up at the first moment to protect you.â
âJordan, donât overestimate yourself just because you have a little skill. You are not Josephâs match at all! Do you think that he was just eating and waiting for death in the four years he spent in the military academy?â
âHe has been especially merciful to you today. If you are not my man, he will probably cut off your arm directly!â
âSo what if it is cut off! So what if he dies?â
Jordan gritted his teeth and stood up shakily. His tall figure engulfed Chloe. âEven if I die... I canât let that bastard bully you!â
âJordan...â Chloe was stunned and stared straight into his tearful eyes.
In the next second, Jordanâs tears fell down.
Due to his nerves being paralyzed, he did not realize that he was already in tears.
âJordan, why are you crying again? Why are you crying so often? Are you Brother Jordan?â
Chloe felt sour in her heart and raised her hand to help him wipe his tears.
Suddenly, Jordan mustered up the courage out of nowhere and wrapped his slender hand around her waist, pulling her into his embrace.
His other hand pressed down hard on her back, wishing he could integrate his most beloved big sister into his throbbing chest.
Chloeâs beautiful eyes narrowed. She was not stupid. She felt the hug Jordan gave her, mixed with indescribable complex emotions.
âJordan, let go. Letâs talk things out.â She pushed him.
âBig sister... I am willing to accept all your punishment for what I have done.â Jordanâs face was full of tears, like melted ice.
He knew that he was selling himself miserably, asking for a piece of candy from his big sister pitifully.
It was a little shameless, but he was angry and uncomfortable in his heart. He was about to go crazy!
However, Chloe was not such an easy person to talk to.
Her eyes were heavy, and her two slender fingers were filled with strength. She poked hard at Jordanâs chest.
Jordan, who had not fully recovered, suddenly lost his strength and fell back onto the sofa âJordan, I know you have no ill intentions. I will not punish you because of this.â
Chloe looked at him with mixed eyes, but her voice was very cold. âStarting tomorrow, you have a week off. Go back and have a good rest.â
âBig sister...â Jordanâs eyes were filled with astonishment, and his heart ached.
Recently, your mind has been too tense, and your emotions have been fluctuating quite a bit. This week, you should relax your body and mind and organize your feelings. Think about what state you should continue to work by my side.â
Skyler had been interrogated by the police overnight, and an entire day had passed.
These twenty-four hours was a torture for her, a pampered Miss Brown. Although she was also given food and drinks, she was not allowed to sleep or lie down. Her eyes were dark green and her face was withered. Her buttocks were almost calluses!
A bright white incandescent light shone on her head, roasting her hair that she had spent a lot of maintenance on.
It was too torturel âI didnât... I didnât send Shelby to be a commercial spy... It has nothing to do with me... I was tricked by Chloe... Iâm resentful...â
Skyler no longer had any strength. She was tired and sleepy, but she still kept quibbling. Her mouth was harder than a dead duck.
At this time, the door of the interrogation room opened.
A man in a suit, holding a black handbag, with an extraordinary appearance, with a calm and confident look on his face walked in.
âOfficers, I am Miss Skylerâs attorney. My name is Johan.â
Johan...?!
Skylerâs pair of dead eyes lit up.
âI need to have a good chat with my client,â Johan said with a smile.
Skyler followed Johan to another room. After all, the only person who could see her now was her lawyer.
âLawyer/Stewart! Did my dad ask you to come and save me?â
Skyler grabbed Johanâs hand and her tears fell. âSave me! I canât hold on much longer!â
âThird Miss Sawle, donât worry. Since I dared to take your case, it means that I have at least 80% of confidence to get rid of the crime for you.â
Johanâs tone was very gentle, but his eyes were very sharp. âBut the premise is that you must cooperate with me with all your strength and explain the ins and outs of the matter clearly. You canât hide anything.â
âGood, good, good!â
Skyler nodded as if she was pounding garlic, and then she remembered that this Johan had even settled such a big matter that her mother had caused, so he would definitely be able to save her from the fire and water, so he spat out everything that had happened.
Johan listened calmly.
âLawyer Stewart, donât you have a way to deal with that Chloe? She is too hateful!â
âIf not for that bitch, how could I have fallen to such a stateâ Skyler slammed the table in anger.
âThird Miss Sawle, Chloe is your plaintiff, she is the victim, and you know very well what her background is.â
Johanâs eyes darkened. âThis time, our opponent is very strong, and Miss Thorp is a ruthless person. It is already good- enough that I can let you escape unscathed this time. Donât expect too much.â
Skyler felt that she had been insulted and was a little angry.
But now that she had a request, how could she dare to throw a tantrum?
âThe female reporter who identified you, Shelby, has an affair with President Headline A. This is very useful for us. It can indirectly prove that the testimony of this witness is unreliable.â
âIn addition, the suspect named justin was a couple with Shelby before the incident. This is the most important point, the breakthrough point of the entire case.â
âYou, you mean to push all the blame on justinâ Skyler asked in a low voice.
Johan smiled meaningfully.
âBut... is he willing to take the blame? As far as I know, he has completely broken off with Shelby.â
âYou donât have to worry about this.â
As Medoâs top lawyer, Johan had not only relied on the connections of Stewart familyâs family in the political circle, his own strength, and his treacherous and ruthless style of handling things.
If he wanted to win a lawsuit and wanted to reverse the case, sometimes he had to resort to some extreme means.
Under Jordanâs pleading, Chloe still gave him a holiday.
Actually, the meaning of this holiday was very clear. It was not really to let him rest, but to let him adjust his mentality and think about how to face her.
11 is ve Following Adaâs request, the big and small lady with Alexaâs vest finally condescended to meet with her.
Ada was an international superstar. In front of the big and small ladies, he was no longer putting on airs. He served tea and poured water. All he could do was lick the tea and worship.
Chloe did not continue to make things difficult for her. Although she was Alexa, she was a businessman. She knew that it was useless to act impulsively. It was the right way to increase the popularity of the hotel and make money.
Therefore, she agreed to accept Adaâs wedding.
This woman was elated on the spot and wished she could kowtow to her three times!
Not only that, Ada also expressed that she would give a sufficient budget and vowed that if KS Group needed a spokesperson for any products in the future, she would definitely stand up for them for free, just to make up.
âPresident Thorp, this, this is?â Ada asked in surprise as she looked at a document in front of her.
âYour new wedding plan,â Chloe said as she sipped her coffee elegantly.
âSo fast?â Ada and her manager looked at each other in shock.
What kind of terrifying speed was this?
âItâs not fast, I was prepared for it.â
âWhen I designed the first wedding plan for you, I was already prepared for it, just in case.â
âI thought I wouldnât be able to use it, but I didnât expect that I didnât prepare it for nothing.â
Ada pursed her lips, feeling very upset.
âPresident Thorp, now that the wedding is right in front of us, and we have to redesign the scene... Isnât the project too big? Can we make it in time?â The agent asked.
âI know that Ms. Ada has always been a fan of Gote style. You should be very interested in Black Rose, right?â Chloe asked with her almond-shaped eyes.
âBlack Rose?â Ada screamed in excitement.
âThe wedding venue was set up with more than ten tons of red roses. If you want to push all of them back, it is indeed too tight.â
âBut if the red roses were replaced by Ecuador and Black Swan roses, it should be much easier.â
Ada Wang was so excited that her face was red!
The plan that Chloe had given her last time, if she said she was satisfied, then this was simply her dream wedding!
Black Roseâs flower language â mystery, desire, and everything you have for me.
It was both unique and cool to the bone.
âBlack Rose? Is it... not too auspicious?â The agent asked weakly.
She was well-versed in, and her actions would definitely cause a sensation on the Internet.
This President Thorp was really a business genius. To her, earning money was only one aspect. Increasing the popularity of the hotel was a profitable business! But in this case, wasnât Ada being used by him?
âAm I getting married or are you getting married? Also, Iâm discussing business with President Thorp. Why are you interrupting?
Is it polite?â
âSince I chose to cooperate with President Thorp, it means that I have absolute trust in her. I will accept all of her suggestions.
Donât talk anymore nonsense!â Ada glared at her manager with a cold face.
After re-signing the contract, Chloe sent someone to send Ada and the others away, then returned to the team to convey the latest work task before leaving the hotel to get off work.
As soon as she stepped out of the door, she saw Oscarâs Rolls-Royce waiting outside. The driver had respectfully opened the door for her.
âBig âBrother â! Why are you so free to pick me up from work today?â As soon as Chloe got in the car, she hugged Oscarâs neck and began to act coquettishly.
âI heard that you gave Jordan a holiday?â Oscar touched her soft head.
âYes, he is too tired recently and needs more rest.â
âIs that really the case?â
Oscar narrowed his eyes and saw through her thoughts. âYou have been occupied with many things recently, and it is time for you to ask for help. What is the purpose of you sending Jordan away at this critical juncture?â
âAre you two in an argument?â
Chloe frowned. âBig brother, why do you sound so strange? We are not dating. Why are we in an argument?â
âItâs not reciprocated, right?â
âBig brother, you... what nonsense are you talking about!â Chloeâs beautiful eyes widened slightly.
âWe can see Jordanâs feelings for you.â Oscar smiled faintly.
âThen?â
âAnd Helena, she mentioned this to me a few days ago. She was too embarrassed to tell you, so she revealed it to me.â
Chloe was a little helpless. Jordan, that brat, had already made everyone know about his crush!
So awkward...
âSecond Madame is very afraid that Jordan will stay by your side with this kind of intention, which will affect your daily life. After all, you two get along with each other day and night. At present, in Medoâs villa, only you and him live. Second Madame is very worried.â Oscar sincerely and earnestly held his little sisterâs soft hand.
Chloe knew that Helena regarded her as her own daughter, so she paid extra attention to the affairs between her and men.
She was afraid that Jordan would not be able to control his desire and make a move on her.
âI believe in Jordanâs character. He will never do anything out of line, But you suddenly gave him a long vacation, so I have to ask a few more questions.â Oscarâs eyes were filled with worry.
âActually, I am giving Jordan a chance to reflect on himself.â
âIâve already noticed that he likes me, so I gave him a holiday to adjust his mentality and organize his feelings for me. It was also to ring the alarm clock for him.â
âIf he canât let go of his love for me, then I canât let him stay by my side.â
âSuch a ruthless heart?â Oscar frowned slightly.
âIâm doing this for his own good.â
Chloe sighed gloomily. âIâm someone who doesnât plan to fall in love for the rest of my life. Itâs impossible for me to fall in love with him. If he works by my side with such thoughts and sees me every day, he will never be able to enter my heart. Doesnât he feel bad? Isnât it painful?â
âI know the pain of love but can not be loved. I donât want the people I care about to suffer. Jordan is a good man. He shouldnât waste his time on me. He deserves a better person.â
When Oscar heard this, his heart trembled and he pulled his little sister into his arms.
At this time, his phone rang.
Oscar hugged his sister with his right arm and picked up the phone with his left hand. âWhat is it?â he asked coldly.
âPresident Thorp, just now, Skyler was acquitted and released! He was brought out by Johan!â
