Chapter 1355
At this point, even Grace had no clue how to console Wendy. After such a big mess, Grace was at a loss on how to
fix things.
The company was gone, all the artists and staff had left. Not only had they landed in legal trouble, but the recent
scandal had also left Infinity Media with no chance of bouncing back. Up next, they’d have to face inspections from
different departments.
Grace didn’t even know how to explain this to Cole. Wendy had single-handedly ruined a perfectly fine company!
This was a big deal, and there was no way to keep it hush-hush.
Right now, Wendy’s mind was blank. She was staring at her computer screen while her face twisted in agony. The
screen was filled with mockery and insults aimed at her. She’d never thought she’d see the day when people would
hate her so much. She was even more pitiful than Keira had been.
Wendy had thought that by sending Becky off today, the media would report on her close relationship with the royal
family of Y Country. Once the news broke, the pressure on the artists would not only come from the Alonso family
but also from the royal family of Y Country
They certainly wouldn’t dare make a move easily. At the same time, she could use this to give Chloe a warning she
wouldn’t forget!
But Chloe had jumped the gun and announced her collaboration with Seth. Using Seth’s status in the entertainment
circle of H Country, she’d managed to attract all the artists to Starlight International!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWendy was just one step behind. If her relationship with the royal family of Y Country had been reported just one
minute earlier, things wouldn’t have turned out this way!
Right now, Wendy’s only thought was on how to deal with Chloe. Chloe’s appearance had turned her life upside
down! If not for Chloe, everything would have been hers!
Damon, the position as future matriarch of the Harper family, all the love from the Harper family, the entire Alonso
family, they would all be hers! She would’ve been the envy of all, the happiest woman in the world!
But now, Damon wasn’t hers, the love of the Harper family wasn’t hers, she’d turned the Alonso family into a mess,
and she’d become the laughingstock of the world!
“Mom, I can’t take it anymore! I want to kill Chloe! If I don’t get rid of her, I’ll never be able to let go of my hatred!”
As Wendy read the insults and mockery online, she swept the last intact computer on her desk onto the floor.
Hearing the sound of the computer crashing, Grace’s heart pounded in fear. But once she calmed down, even she
was seething with anger.
“All this happens and all you know is to throw a tantrum! Have you thought about what to do next? What’s the use
of smashing things? Look at yourself! What’s so special about Chloe? Her family background isn’t even as good as
yours, yet with just Starlight International, she’s managed to push you to this point?!”
“Then you tell me what I should do now?” Wendy shouted back at Grace in anger.
She was at her wit’s end. She had wanted to bounce back, but then the Human Resources Manager suddenly
revealed the worst scandal!
Now, she was tied up in numerous lawsuits, and with everyone knowing the truth, there was no one in the court she
could use. What she had to face next were investigations from various departments, breach of contracts and
compensation.
The company was gone, and she had to face huge compensations! What else could she do?
Grace swallowed hard. How could she possibly know what to do? All of Grace’s attention had been on becoming a
wealthy lady, she had no clue about business
Grace sat on the sofa, rubbing her forehead, silent for a long while before she finally said, “….Give up. At this point,
there’s no saving the company. Calm down, and spend more time with Presley in the next few days.
“Your father is doing business in the M Country, he should be back in a few days. At that time, if Presley puts some
pressure on Damon, there might still be a chance. Also, isn’t the state banquet of Y Country coming up… these
matters should keep you busy
“Stop focusing on work. Your main task now is to be the lady of the Alonso family, which is the most distinguished
socialite that everyone aspires to be. Stop fighting with people who don’t matter, it’s just a waste of time.”
Hearing about Cole’s business and the state banquet of Y Country. Wendy slowly calmed down.
Maybe Grace was right, Wendy shouldn’t be focusing on Chloe now
Compared to Wendy’s current state, Chloe was leisurely heading towards the orphanage Wendy didn’t have the
energy to mess with her anymore, so she should’ve had a pretty easy time for a while
After a busy morning at the company, she arrived at the orphanage and Cicely was waiting at the entrance
Frowning, Chloe got out of the car and walked over to Cicely
“Why aren’t you going in?” Chloe asked
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCicely looked up at Chloe with a lollipop in her mouth, but no expression on her face.
Surprised, Chloe asked, “What happened? Did Did something happen to Hugo?
But then Cicely grabbed Chloe’s arm. “Why are you only here now?”
“The meeting ran late Why didn’t you go in?” The pain in her arm caused Chloe to frown.
Cicely leaned her forehead against Chloe’s shoulder “He’s having me followed he’s got someone tailing me…”
Seth was still having people tail Cicely? What was he thinking? Chloe furrowed her brows, picking up the exhaustion
and rage in Cicely’s voice.
It had been a whil. Probably since the last time Chloe had brought Cicely here, Cicely hadn’t come by since. Her
son, she’d only seen him once since he was born. Now, with just a few steps through the door, she could see him
again. Yet, she had to stop at the entrance.
Cicely’s helplessness and sorrow were heart-wrenching.
Chloe sighed, shooting a glance at her bodyguards behind her. She then took Cicely’s hand. “Let’s go.”
Cicely stood still, shaking her head. “I don’t want to go in.”
“No problem, the bodyguards are here. No one can get close to me. You just stick with me.”
Cicely looked at the bodyguards who got out of the car, her resolve wavering slightly.
“So…” Cicely hesitated, about to speak when a black Bugatti slowly parked next to them.
Then, the car door opened, and a tall, strapping figure appeared in their sight.
