The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Perhaps sensing Chloe’s disdain for her, Carolina let out a deep sigh. “Chloe.”

She didn’t quite understand her granddaughter’s behavior, but Chloe was in a position of power now, and Carolina

didn’t want to piss her off. Suppressing her annoyance, she held out the thermos she’d been carrying to Chloe.

“Here, I’ve made some cheese macaroni for you. I remember it was your favorite when you were young, right?

Here you go.”

Chloe glanced at the thermos in Carolina’s hand, paused for a few seconds, then flashed a sarcastic smile. “Sorry, I

don’t fancy it.”

Carolina’s smile froze on her face. “How come? I remember…”

“Maybe you didn’t remember wrong. I used to like it. But it was always snatched away by Keira, and I ended up not

getting any. Same thing with people.”

Same thing with people. Maybe she used to like and depend on her grandmother. But after having so many things

taken away from her, she naturally didn’t like or depend on her anymore.

Carolina wasn’t stupid; she understood what Chloe was implying. She felt regret and guilt, but what else could she

do?

She didn’t know what to say for a moment, but Chloe had already walked past her. “I have nothing to say to you.

Please leave my company immediately.”

Just as Chloe was about to leave, Carolina quickly blocked her path. “Chloe.” She called out urgently, looking at

Chloe’s cold face. “Chloe, I know you’re not a petty person. I’ve apologized for the past. What else do you want

from me?” Chloe frowned, her eyes filled with impatience and indifference. “I never asked you for anything, and all

I want now is for you to stay away from me. Don’t appear in front of me again. We were both at peace before this,

Ms. Carolina. It was you who came to my company and blocked my path today. And now you’re asking me what I

want you to do?” “Yes, what do you want me to do to earn your forgiveness?” Chloe raised an eyebrow, looking at

Carolina. “Forgive you? What have you done that deserves my forgiveness? If I don’t forgive you, what’s gonna

happen? Ms. Carolina, you seemed to be doing just fine when you were constantly dissatisfied with me. Why does it

seem like you can’t live if I don’t forgive you today?” How ironic. Anyone could understand Chloe’s meaning. Even if

she didn’t say it, everyone knew why Carolina was here today, especially Chloe. Chloe said a lot, but whether she

forgave or not, it didn’t really affect her relationship with Carolina.

Unless Carolina wanted something from Chloe.

Carolina had been humiliated by Chloe in front of others multiple times, and her embarrassment was pervasive.

Her anger was like a snowball rolling, growing larger with each turn.

“The blood ties between us can’t be denied. I’ve apologized and said what I needed to say. I’m your grandmother,

and I’ve been taking care of you since you were little. Now that I’m old and powerless, you, as my granddaughter,

shouldn’t you take up the responsibility of supporting us?”

Chloe knew why Carolina came to see her today. She spent time talking to her because she knew Carolina would

never have the nerve to say these shameless words herself. It seemed that if someone was truly shameless, they

really did have no bottom line.

Chloe laughed lightly, her beautiful face especially dazzling in her smile. She stood there, silently laughing,

occasionally glancing at Carolina’s face.

Carolina was so infuriated by her laughter that she trembled all over. “What are you laughing at? Do you think it’s

not right? Chloe, you should have a conscience and repay kindness with kindness. I raised you, and although I might

not have done much, at least I tried.”

Chloe’s smile slowly faded as she looked at Carolina and nodded with a gentle smile. “I think Nick and Keira have

more responsibility to support you than I do. As for your contribution, I suppose it’s just that… I’m resilient, and I

didn’t let you kill me.”

Carolina’s face turned purplish-red as she stared at Chloe’s tense expression, as if it could erupt at any moment.

Chloe looked at her coldly, her gazes filled with sarcasm. After a while, she slowly raised her head to the few

security guards who had been standing by the door, hesitating to come in, and said coldly, “Get her out. Is this

company open to just anyone?”

The security guards heard her and quickly approached Carolina, but still hesitated. After all, to them, this woman

was still their Ms. Summers’ grandmother.

“Ma’am, this way please.”

“Where do you want me to go?! Chloe, I’m talking to you nicely. Don’t go too far.” Carolina started yelling. Seeing

Chloe’s cold gaze, her fake kindness finally fell away.

Honestly, Chloe was more used to this side of Carolina. She wasn’t a gentle person. Why should Carolina be so

hypocritical towards her? She didn’t want to argue with her anymore, and waved to the security guards. “Get her

out quickly. If you just let anyone in next time, just hand in your resignation.”

“Alright!” The guards were sweating with fear from Chloe’s casual comment, and immediately reached out to grab

Carolina’s shoulder.

But as soon as they touched Carolina, she violently shrugged off their hands. “Let’s see who dares to touch me!”

She roared, and the two security guards immediately pulled back their hands, looked at each other, then tried to

grab Carolina again.

Carolina suddenly swung the thermos in her hand. If it weren’t for the quick reaction of the security guard next to

her, he might have been hit in the head. The thermos fell to the ground and shattered, spilling cheese all over the

floor.

The smell of cheese hit the room instantly. Chloe frowned slightly. Just a second ago, she was praising how well-

behaved her two babies were during her pregnancy, not causing her too much hassle. But today, she suddenly felt

off. The smell was too overpowering, completely not her cup of tea at the moment. With her heightened sense of

smell, in a split second, she felt like she was gonna hurl.
