Chapter 70 Marrying Peter
âOf course.â
âGoodness me. Heâs young, rich, and handsome. The female employees at Fairlight are so lucky to see him from time to time. Who knows. They might even get a chance to get up close and personal with him.â
âThose female employees are nothing compared to you. Your uncle is a manager at Fairlight, and thereâs a chance he might be able to transfer you to his department. Youâre beautiful, and with a little effort, you could easily captivate him⦠Oh, wait, I forgot. Your uncle was fired because of Chloeâs scheming.
âWhen I think about it, youâre the one who got the short end of the stick. You missed out on a good matchâ¦â
Melody was so angry that she could barely contain herself. âI donât know whatâs so good about that b*tch. Why are there people standing up for her?â
âItâs not just someone standing up for her. There are plenty of people who like her. Do you still remember Peter? He was Chloeâs college coursemate, and he confessed his love to her a few days ago.â
Melody was filled with rage, feeling that the world was so unfair. People like her who truly needed love did not receive any, while that little sl*t Chloe had men swarming around her every day.

As she seethed with jealousy, Ava said slowly, âI have a way to make Chloeâs behind-the -scenes benefactor abandon her. This way, sheâll never be able to hold her head up Aesper again.â
âWhatâs the plan? I wonât be a part of it if thereâs any risk involved.â
Melody had learned her lesson and did not immediately agree.
âThereâs zero risk. I want you to help me contact Peter. He knew Chloe in college and must be aware that we donât get along. Get him to come, and Iâll âcreateâ an opportunity for themâ¦â
The next morning at nine oâclock, Miles contacted Chloe and agreed to meet her at noon. When she saw the address he sent her, she frowned.
âDidnât we agree to meet at your company? Why did you send me the address of a house by the seaside?â
âI have a client here and canât leave.â
âWhy a house by the seaside though?â
âWell, where else are we supposed to talk? In the middle of the street? Besides, your father will be there. Are you afraid Iâll bully you?â
Chloe furrowed her brow. She did not want to create any unnecessary trouble and agreed to meet him there.
In the afternoon, she hailed a cab and headed to her destination after finishing up her morning tasks. Arriving at the seaside villa, she found the front door ajar and no one inside.
Miles had yet to arrive.
She wandered around the yard, and after about ten minutes, Benjamin arrived. Her face was devoid of expression and her eyes lacked the respect and anticipation that had once been there, replaced now by an overwhelming sense of disappointment.
Benjamin had received Chloeâs late motherâs money the previous month, so he had been in good spirits. He ignored her, humming a tune as he strolled about.
Five minutes later, both Benjamin and Chloe received a text message from Miles, informing them of a last-minute change of address. Benjaminâs message arrived slightly faster, and he was the first to step out the door.
Chloe followed closely behind, but as she took her final step, the door slammed shut with a resounding âthud.â Her eyes widened, and she pushed hard against it.
âDonât waste your energy. Youâre not going anywhere.â
Ava emerged from an adjoining room. Holding a glass of red wine in her hand, she looked relaxed as if she were in her own home.
Chloe tensed up as she stared at Ava warily. âWhat are you doing here?â
âWhy canât I be here?â Ava retorted, pausing for a moment before smiling. âAlso, thereâs someone I want to introduce you to.â
Chloe remained silent, scanning her surroundings for a way to escape. Ava was confident that she could not get out and chatted with her as if they were old friends catching up.
âPeterâs family lives in a village two thousand kilometers away. Thereâs no electricity or signal there. After marrying him, youâll probably have to take care of his parents. Itâs
fine for you to stay In Aesper for now, but if he loses his job one day and takes you back
to his hometown, I wonder if youâll be able to adapt to life in the countryside.â
