Chapter 1031


    Chloe bit her lip gently, a hint of sadness creeping into her heart. Rose, who was always cheerful,


    radiant, and confident, had such moments too...


    "Yeah, you got a point.’ "SO, you Muste to see me off tomorrow, got it? I want Morrison to know


    that I''ve got a badass friend like you backing me up, just in case he decides to mess with me too


    much."


    Chloe chuckled lightly, "If he''s truly afraid of me, that''d be awesome."


    "Then remember to give him a warning tomorrow! Scare him a bit."


    “Will do."


    “We''ve got a deal then. My flight''s at half past nine tomorrow morning. After you finish work tonight,


    come straight to pick me up. Then you can stay over at my ce”


    Chloe blinked. Was that part of the n?


    "Sure.


    "You took so long to answer. Are you afraid Mr. Harper won''t approve?"


    Chloe paused for a moment, "No such thing.’ “Hmm, that''s reassuring.’ After hanging up, Chloe


    didn''t put down her phone, propping her head up with both hands.


    Rose...


    After a while, she let out a sigh, lifting her head ready to work. Her gaze swept over herputer


    screen, where two people were still shing.


    A news headline, "StanTheMan is the other man; kept appearing and disappearing, then


    reappearing again.


    Chloe clenched her teeth--these two men! All the users of this tform were probably close to


    tears. Their carefully maintained tform was thrown into chaos by these two troublemakers. Even


    if the problem were resolved, the restoration and maintenance work would take a lot of time and


    effort.


    Was it because they thought programmers were pushovers?


    She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, opened her eyes again, put her phone aside, and stared


    at it for a long time. Then she slowly moved her hand to the keyboard! With her eyes closed, she hit


    a few keys. When she opened her eyes, a whole screen of dense codes appeared on herputer


    screen.


    She instantly closed her eyes again, her temples throbbing, as if someone had pulled a nerve in her


    brain, causing a cold sweat to break out from the pain. Bearing the pain, she scanned the screen,


    then began to type rapidly.


    The social media tform had clearly been messed up by these two. After they broke through the


    firewall, some programmers were trying to fix it urgently, but Chloe still managed to break in with


    ease.


    Then came the sound of rapid typing again, and the top spot of the trending news was reced by


    "Congrats on Rose''s wedding!"


    All theizens were avidly following the news. They were taken aback when this unrted


    headline suddenly appeared.


    “Where did thise from?"Belonging to N?velDrama.Org.


    "Is it Aaron or StanTheMan?"


    “What''s this Rose... Oh, I remember now, she''s the future wife of Morrison from the R City. They are


    getting married because of her pregnancy.


    “But why did she suddenly pop up? This news appeared like a bolt from out of the blue."


    “Hasn''t enough strange stuff happened today? It''s a bit odd, but I''m used to it.”


    “Congrats on the wedding! But who put this news up?"


    “Is this someone publicly challenging the two big shots?”


    "It''s about to get interesting, but I bet it''ll be taken down by those two soon.”


    “Excited to see what happens next”


    Everyone waited and waited, but there was no response.


    It took almost twenty minutes for the news rankings to change. The top few spots were all upied


    by the “Congrats on Rose''s wedding!" news.


    Everyone was bbergasted. What a strange turn of events! “Maybe, because marriage is a good


    thing, they''re being noble and not fighting over it."


    “Right! Wishing Rose a happy wedding.’ “Wishing Rose a happy wedding.”


    “Happy wedding.."


    Looking at the screen, Chloe finally let out a sigh of relief.


    She had witnessed the childishness of men today.


    Her phone beeped, and Chloe nced at it coldly before picking it up. It was a message from


    Damon- [Sorry, won''t do it again. Don''t be mad_]


    [I won''t be home tonight. After work, I''ll go straight to Rose''s ce and stay with her.]


    After a while— [You don''t want me anymore?]


    Chloe was almost choked by her own saliva. She couldn''t imagine the expression Damon had when


    he said this.


    [Rose is leaving for the R City tomorrow morning. It''s herst night here, and I''m going to see her off


    at the airport.]


    [Can I object?]


    [No.]


    [''Crying’ Chloe couldn''t help butugh. He sent such a cute sticker...


    After that, Damon didn’t say anything else. Then, Stanley''s message came.


    [Chloe, it''s all that guy''s fault for provoking me. You''re not mad at me, are you?]


    Chloe replied with a simple [Busy]


    The more she said, the more Stanley would go on and on.


    After work, Chloe went straight to Rose''s ce, and the two of them bought groceries and meat


    from the supermarket.


    Rose was pregnant, and take out was always a concern, so they decided to cook at home.


    Rose seemed in high spirits, herughter ringing out. She was just like how she was back in school.


    After dinner, Chloe was dragged by Rose to the bathroom. They scrubbed each other''s backs, then


    put on their pajamas andy down on the bed. They reminisced about their school days, the happy


    times, the sad times, other ssmates, and their past lovers.


    “By the way, have you seen Lance since?"


    “No. Been busy since my foot healed, no chance to see him: Hearing Lance''s name, Chloe''s brows


    twitched slightly.


    “You''ve never been to the Olson Group?"


    “Nope”


    Rose took a deep breath, took Chloe''s hand, and said, “Sometimes, I can''t help but marvel at how


    time flies.


    Regardless of whether our past was filled with joy or hardship, we''vee such a long way. We''ve


    grown up.


    Marriage... something we could barely even imagine back then is about to be reality.”


    Chloe listened to Rose''s reminiscences and reflections, a faint smile on her lips. She asionally


    chimed in.


    Finally, Rose stared at the ceiling, her face expressionless, her beautiful eyes shimmering under the


    light.


    "Life''s got so many curveballs, man. Cicely married for love, and love screwed her over. You gave it


    all for Lance, only to be yed. But now, you''ve got Mr. Harper... Chloe, are you happy now?"


    Chloe nodded, "Yeah. The thing with Lance, it wasn''t love’ Rose chuckled, "I guess, Cicely married


    Seth for happiness too... So no matter what, I''m gonna choose to marry for love."


    She turned to Chloe with a smile, "Morrison is my kind of man, and I believe the one I love is worth


    loving. I can''t possibly get it wrong, right? If I go the extra mile, he might fall for me too, right?"
