Chapter 1531
Rose immediately shut up. If this kind and loving old man was just like what Chloe said, how could she brazenly back
him up? Just because he felt guilty towards Carolina, he could let Carolina do anything?
Including all the unfair things Carolina did to Chloe because she preferred Keira. Slandering Chloe, not trusting
Chloe, taking away everything that originally belonged to Chloe for Keira, even sending Chloe abroad, turning a
blind eye to everyone’s prejudice and contempt for Chloe.
And in the end, Carolina and Keira planned together to deal with Chloe, dumping cold water on her again and again.
Everything she knew and didn’t know, if put together, how could Chloe calmly forgive him?
“Why aren’t you saying anything? Grandpa, you haven’t answered my question yet. Or you can just deny or admit
it, is my guess right or wrong?“c2 Jonah’s expression had already given her the answer. She just coldly wanted
Jonah to admit it himself, cruelly let him kill the insignificant feelings she had for him in her heart.
Jonah’s lips were shaking badly, and when those eyes looked into Chloe’s eyes, they were trembling so badly that
they couldn’t focus. The cold and sarcastic smile on Chloe’s face was like a knife, leaving scar after scar on his face.
Other than embarrassment, he had no right to say the word pain. It was just too embarrassing. He had lived for so
many years and he had let himself live so disgracefully.

“Heh…” Chloe scoffed, “When you found out that Keira wasn’t your biological granddaughter, you also said you
were sorry to me. I thought you were apologizing for the love you and Carolina showed her, or for Carolina’s
actions towards me. But it seems that’s not the case. You were always doing it for yourself.”
Jonah shook his head, his wrinkled face full of shame and regret. “Anyway, I always owe you.”
“Maybe I’m asking for too much.” Chloe cut off Jonah’s words with a sarcastic and sad look. “There’s no rule in this
world that says elders have to give their younger generation all kinds of love and protection, and the law doesn’t
clearly state what you as elders should give us. Even… even if Keira is not your biological granddaughter, as long as
you’re happy, you can leave all your love and property to her. I’ve always known that you don’t owe me anything. I
just looked at how others lived and then chose my own path, feeling a bit sad. Even without you, I can still live well.”
As she said it, she gave a light chuckle. “Actually, it’s nice that we each live our own lives. Sometimes I think about
you and feel that it’s useless to get tangled up in some things. I’ll try to do my best, but I can’t be perfect. But don’t
push me. What I give you can only be voluntary, not forced.”
Jonah paused, “What do you mean…”
Chloe scoffed, “Carolina came to the company to find me.”
Jonah’s expression instantly became serious.
Chloe continued, “She wants me to give her 2 billion dollars. Of course, I don’t want to, so she’s going to take me to
court.”
Jonah slammed the table angrily and quickly stood up from his chair. “This is absurd. She has no moral bottom line
at all.”

Chloe sneered, “What kind of nonsense is this? The fact that there’s no moral bottom line is true, but isn’t it
something you’ve allowed to happen? The law doesn’t mandate that you as elders have to be good to me, but as
long as I wasn’t killed back then and instead have to support you, I’m guilty and deserve to be morally kidnapped
and judged. No matter how I argue, the law is the law. No matter how immoral Carolina is, as long as she
successfully appeals, there is a clear law there. If I don’t fulfill my obligation to support, I lose.
“But who doesn’t have a temper? If it weren’t for my good luck, I might have died somewhere long ago. I was lucky
enough to have the chance to live, but I still have to support those who almost killed me? The law is the law, and
sometimes the law is unreasonable, but I think it’s unfair and I really can’t accept it.”
By the time Chloe finished, Jonah’s expression changed suddenly, as if he suddenly realized something, and looked
at her incredulously. “You… you’re going to…”

compensation, only a price. And you, it’s time for you to pay the price for your actions back then.”
After Chloe finished, she smiled at Jonah, then slowly turned around. After taking a few steps, she suddenly stopped
and turned back to look at Jonah, who was still standing there, and said softly, “Congratulations…”
As she said it, she turned around and didn’t stop until they all left. Jonah slowly sat down in the chair, suddenly
feeling that this was life. If you did something wrong, you always had to pay the price. Tears fell from his eyes, but
he still smiled like a child.
Chloe’s last sentence was still echoing in his ears. “Congratulations, you’re going to be a great–grandfather.”
Chloe was pregnant. At this point, what else could he not let go of? He did something wrong, so he should be
punished.
Chloe was right. But still, god was merciful to him. Anyway, he didn’t pursue anything now, and neither power nor
fame were important to him. He can only be glad that he didn’t cause a big mess and Chloe was still safe and
sound.
Everyone left Graceful Haven Church; the atmosphere was a bit oppressive. Rose and Yulia suddenly felt a bit lost.
They only knew to come here for fun, but they didn’t know that Chloe really came here to see Jonah.
The question she had suddenly raised was something they still hadn’t figured out to this day. Although Jonah had
betrayed Carolina in the past
and had regrets about her what did that have to do with Carolina now taking Chloe to court?
