Chapter 139


    Chloe was filled with uncontroble anger and loneliness.


    She wasn’t an idiot. If she couldn’t see Carolina’s obvious motives, then she had lived these years


    in vain.


    Turns out, having her shield Lance and Keira from the paparazzi was just a cover.


    Over the years, she had never thought of attending any banquets in the name of the Summers


    family. And this time, the Summers family’s invitation wasn’t as simple as it seemed


    “Do I have to beg you on my knees just to get you to attend a banquet?”


    Carolina’s words echoed in her mind once again.


    Now that she thought about it, Carolina really had a reason to beg her for the sake of getting on


    Zenith Capital Group’s list


    “Chloe, I must say, the Summers family members are weirder than one another. I’m really doubting


    if you’re even a descendant of the Summers family?”


    Chloe gave a bitter smile, poured herself another drink, and sat down in the food area.


    “Yeah, sometimes I doubt it too. But I am..”


    “Well, you’re definitely an oddball in the eyes of the Summers family, Rose Davis said helplessly


    and sympathetically.


    Why was she born into such a family?


    Chloe didn’t say anything, just sat there. Through the thick ss window, she looked at the


    skyscrapers outside, shimmering with brilliant lights in the night. The colorful world ge became


    blurry in her eyes


    Lonely and suffocating


    Chloe just drank, one ss after another.


    Rose Davis felt sorry for her, silently apanying her in drinking.


    As best friends, Rose Davis and Chloe had a kind of unspoken understanding.


    Comfort at this time was undoubtedly like rubbing salt in the wound.


    Because beingforted at your most vulnerable would make you break down immediately.


    They were both too proud…


    Who would want the other to be upset!


    The noisy banquet hall slowly filled with apuse.


    Chloe pressed her throbbing temples and quickly looked towards the brightest direction.

    The man speaking on stage was a tall and mighty middle–aged man, different from his chubby,


    gaudy peers. He had a strong and fit physique, handsome face, and a steady and calm


    temperament. It was evident that he must have been a captivating man when he was young, and


    even now, he still was.


    It was just that his facial features gradually ovepped with a face in her mind.


    “Thank you all for taking the time to attend my son Damon’s official session ceremony for the


    Harper Group! The Harper Group has made it to today…”


    It turned out to be just as she thought. The man speaking on stage was Damon’s father.


    “Huh? Why does the guy on the stage look familiar?”


    Even Rose noticed it.


    The middle–aged man didn’t say much before leading the apuse and inviting the new CEO, who


    would officially take over therge financial group, toe up. When Damon’s figure slowly


    appeared and finally stood on the podium, there was a low murmur in the banquet hall.


    “So he’s the new leader of the Harper Group!”


    “I knew he had a strong presence from the beginning. I asked many people who he was, and it


    turns out he’s the center of attention tonight…”


    “It’s a blessing to have such decisiveness and initiative at such a young age.”


    “I thought he would be a somewhat balding, potbellied man. I didn’t expect him to be like this…”


    Rose Davis was also surprised. So, Damon was the young director of the Harper Group, and the


    new global CEO of the Harper family?


    Chloe leaned on the table and stood up, her tall, slender body slightly unsteady. Enduring the


    difort caused by her throbbing temples, she walked forward.
