Chapter 929
“I should really thank your wife. If she hadn’t messed with me today, you’d have had the entire day
to clean up the phony ounts you’ve been juggling for months.”
Chloe said.
The manager’s knees buckled, and he stumbled back a couple of steps. The consultant stood still,
pale as a ghost.
“Do you know why Viviana was arrested?” Chloe asked, “If she hadn’t messed with me today, you’d
have had the entire day to clean up the phony ounts.” Her words, calm as if discussing
something trivial, hit the consultant like a tidal wave. Yes, they had feared their boss discovering
their little scheme, but now… Looking at the manager and the consultant, Chloe smirked.
She peered through the ss counter at a set of pink teardrop diamond jewelry, then nonchntly
said, “The regional manager. The numbers you’ve racked up over the years must be substantial. So
substantial that I wonder how long you’ll spend behind bars.”
‘The consultant copsed to the floor, pallid and trembling.
This woman… Always ready to hit back..
The thud brought Chloe’s gaze to her. Seeing her like this, Chloe’s face remained indifferent. Her
calm words made the consultant realize the magnitude of the mess she’d stepped in.
Struggling to get up from the floor, she knelt, looking at Chloe with a pleading expression, Ms.
Chloe. Please.”
Chloe raised her hand, stopping her mid–sentence, “Stop,
Without looking up, she said to Laura, the girl behind the counter, “Bring me that pink teardrop
diamond set.”
Laura hurriedly opened the cab and carefully took out the jewelry.
Chloe picked up an earring to examine it. The set, worth hundreds of thousands of dors, was
exquisitely made. The pink teardrop diamond was indeed beautiful, delicate and intricate.
She took one earring and put it on, ncing at the consultant kneeling on the floor, and said
indifferently. “Don’t beg me, and don’t kneel. You have your rights and your dignity. I can’t give you
either.”
The consultant clenched her teeth; this woman, remembered every word.
“Ms Chloe, I made a mistake today. She murmured.
Chloe turned her head, continuing to put on the other earring, “Since you’ve made a mistake, it’s
time to pay the price.”
“Laura” Chloe spoke lightly.
Laura immediately responded, “Yes?”
Chloe calmly said, “Call the police for me.”
Without hesitation.
Laura blinked, turning to Chloe. Chloe’s coolness, decisiveness, and confidence left Laura a bit
flustered.
This was how she dreamed to be. But the process was tough. It was something she could never
achieve.
“Okay.” She responded immediately and turned to find her phone.
“Ms. Chloe!” The consultant and the manager turned pale with fear.
But Chloe didn’t pay them any mind. She looked at herself in the mirror, checking out the earrings,
then smiled satisfactorily.
Before long,w enforcement arrived and took away the couple and Coco.
“On what grounds are you arresting me. I haven’t done anything!” Coco yelled.
“You’re the mistress of this manager, a suspect. Please cooperate with our investigation.”
“No! I’m not a mistress!” Coco said.
“Screw you!” The consultant screamed, scaring Coco into silence.
Chloe also needed to go to the police station to make a statement. Before leaving, she took the pink
teardrop diamond set with her. She then instructed the most experienced salesperson to look after
the store. After making arrangements, she went to the police station.
Nathan and Katie followed Chloe, their faces expressing utter respect.
Looking at Chloe’s back, Katie was filled with deep admiration, “Chloe is really amazing, nothing
seems to faze her! She doesn’t need anyone’s help. I used to think that as a woman, she must have
relied on Damon to get this far. But now it seems, she doesn’t need him at all.”
Nathan stroked his chin thoughtfully, then slowly nodded, “Now that you mention it, it’s true! I’ve
never seen her ask Damon for help. She always handles things herself! I feel Damon might be in
danger.”
“What’s wrong?” Katie asked.
“Nathan seemed to be lost in thought. Hearing Katie’s question, he muttered something that
seemed meaningful, “A woman, who doesn’t act like one.”
Katie looked at him curiously.
“I have to remind Damon about this when I have the time!” Nathan said.
After making her statement and presenting the evidence at the police station, Chloe left.
Today’s incident made her consider the businesses her mother had left behind. Over the years,
while they were under Viviana’s control, she must have nted many of her own people. Now that
Viviana was in jail, some of the managers might take the opportunity to stir up trouble.
This was an oversight on her part. She’d been too focused on finding Damon, sentencing Viviana
that night, and thening straight here. She hadn’t properly dealt with the follow–up matters.
Chloe couldn’t help rubbing her temples.
Images of Damon changing clothes in his office earlier today popped into her mind. She paused,
then shook her head. What a troublemaker!
While Chloe was amusing herself in the backseat, Nathan and Katie looked on, stunned.
N?velDrama.Org owns this.
What exactly went on in this woman’s head?
Soon, Chloe’s phone rang.
It was Miles, calling to schedule a time for Katie’s makeover.
