The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Chapter 1533

“Well, I should do the same in the future, only treat one of my descendants well. After all, the others will have to

take care of me in the end! Not only will I do this myself, but I will also tell my descendants to do the same! The

future social situation is truly wonderful!”

This obvious irony undoubtedly brought immense pressure to certain lawyers and courts. Although these words

were spoken out of anger, if mishandled, the social impact would be far–reaching. If things got out of hand, the

situation could escalate, and the entire social order would be greatly disrupted.

However, there were clear legal provisions in place. Regardless of Chloe’s refusal to provide financial support, from

any perspective, the elderly were a vulnerable group in society and they required care. Therefore, regardless of the

outcome, this matter would provoke controversy among people.

Regardless of the situation, the online public opinion was overwhelmingly against Chloe. Criticism of Chloe’s

remarks was more prevalent, and those who specifically targeted Chloe were still active. There were even skeptical

questions raised, but got drowned out and no one paid attention to them.

“Has no one considered the possibility that the ‘ban‘ was suddenly lifted because Ms. Summers is absolutely

confident of winning this lawsuit?“c2

Wendy became excited as she saw the comments on the internet. As long as the appeal was successful, they would

definitely win this lawsuit.

The law had explicit provisions, and it couldn’t be changed arbitrarily just because she was Chloe. She knew that the

two billion financial support might be a trivial matter for Chloe now, but going to court for refusing to fulfill her duty

would damage her reputation. The losses she would suffer were not just limited to those two billion. There was

nothing more satisfying in this world than seeing Chloe fail. On the day of the trial, she would definitely be present,

witnessing Chloe’s shame in defeat.

She hoped that Chloe wouldn’t settle this matter privately. If Chloe did, she would also warn Carolina to give Chloe a

lesson in court. However, in reality, Carolina had been waiting for Chloe’s private resolution for the past three days,

but Chloe had yet to appear at the company and remained extremely low–key.

Carolina was staying in a hotel, but she went shopping almost every day. She ate the best food and drank the best

beverages. She spent lavishly on clothes, jewelry, shoes, even beauty treatments and hair styling. She didn’t seem

like a bankrupt old lady at all.

Reporters followed Carolina every day, documenting her daily activities. It had to be said that some people envied

her and hated her, some were jealous, and naturally, some mocked her.

First of all, the source of her money was completely legitimate. The name on the credit card she used for shopping

was Wendy’s. Sometimes they even saw the two of them meeting frequently. It seemed that Wendy also

understood that her actions didn’t need to be hidden. When Chloe encountered trouble, she was the happiest

person in the world. When Carolina sued Chloe in court, she would definitely be very happy.

It couldn’t be more natural for the two people who hated Chloe the most got together. It was just Carolina and

Wendy, and their immoral behavior was well–known. So, anything shameless happening to them wouldn’t be

surprising.

And Wendy had been using her actions to provoke Chloe. She was now fully supporting Carolina just to let Chloe

know that she had played a part in Carolina’s decision to sue her. So, in the end, when Chloe lost the lawsuit, she

would ultimately have lost to Wendy.

Carolina and Wendy being together was no longer a secret. Even if they didn’t make it public, Chloe could guess

that Wendy was instigating discord in this lawsuit. She simply let it pass.

Wendy thought she was using Carolina to humiliate Chloe. However, she didn’t know that she was just a pawn in

someone else’s hands.

Everyone was looking forward to the trial three days later. Although most people believed that Chloe would

undoubtedly lose the lawsuit, there was still a glimmer of hope because it was Chloe. They felt that there was a

possibility of a turnaround in this matter.

On the day of the trial, there was a crowd of media and people who were particularly interested in the case

gathered outside the courthouse. Everyone wanted to be present to know the verdict firsthand.

Carolina arrived at the courthouse with Wendy. The two of them were accompanied by their assistants and lawyers,

walking confidently through the crowd. Of course, the reporters were eagerly interviewing them, “Ms. Carolina, can

you tell us if Ms. Summers has contacted you privately to settle this matter?”

Carolina replied, “No, she hasn’t. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be here today. Since she is so persistent, then it’s

regrettable that she had the opportunity but chose not to settle this privately. Don’t blame me for disregarding our

family ties. She forced me into this situation.”

“If Ms. Summers had indeed approached you to settle privately, would you have agreed?” The reporter asked.

Carolina answered, “Of course, I would. As long as she acknowledges that I am her grandmother and agrees to

fulfill her obligations. We should avoid going to court if we can. It’s not something to be proud of. I was left with no

choice.”

‘Ms. Alonso, what role did you play in this case?” The reporter asked.

Wendy smiled calmly and said, “Ms. Carolina is a respected elder of mine, and if she encounters something that

brings her sadness, I will do my best to help her.”

“There are many unfair things in this world. Why do you specifically want to help Ms. Carolina? Ms. Alonso, can you

tell us if there are any personal conflicts involved?” The reported asked again.

Wendy’s smile had a hint of irony, “If I say no, would you believe me?”

The reporter chuckled, and those around them felt a strong aversion to Wendy and Carolina appearing together.

“Regardless, this is a private matter between Carolina and her grandmother. Ms. Alonso, why do you have so much

time to meddle in this matter? I guess it was your idea for Carolina to sue Ms. Summers, right?” The reporter asked

sharply.

Wendy smiled but didn’t respond directly. Her silence was seen by everyone as an admission.
