Chapter 1053
Cicely invited Chloe to hit the shops together. After taking a call from Nate, Damon’s mood seemed
sour, but he made no move to stop her from leaving.
After all, guys could never get the real kick out of shopping that girls did.
The Witt family owned a piece of almost everything in R City. If someone said the Witt family
basically ran the whole R City, no one would argue.
The shopping mall they were hanging out in was owned by the Witt family.
Chloe wasn’t exactly a head–turner. Most people knew her name but didn’t really know her.
After all, everyone had their own battles to fight. To them, someone like Chloe seemed far removed
from their everyday lives.
But there were those who were into her, who looked up to her.
Like some of the store clerks in the mall who recognized her.
The ground floor of the mall was lined with jewelry brands.
At this time, Chloe was hanging out with E and Cicely. One of the counter attendants recognized
Chloe and was pretty pumped.
Chloe was used to this. She ignored the people around her, lost in the jewelry on disy.
E scampered off to check out the popr colored gold section, leaving Cicely and Chloe
together.
“Do you still stand by what you said before?” Cicely asked.
Chloe nced at her, seeming deep in thought, before replying.
“Sure. But do you need it now?” she asked, eyeing Cicely’s outfit. Her face gave nothing away.
“Absolutely. I can’t let him know about Hugo.”
Chloe’s eyesnded on a pair of diamond rings in the disy.
“What about your grandpa? You’re not nning on telling him either?”
“Mhm.”
Cicely didn’t hesitate, as if the old man who used to dote on her was nowpletely irrelevant.
Chloe looked at her, her expression a bit strange.
Cicely chuckled, “He’s got people taking care of him now. He’s probably doing just fine. As for me,
I’ve got my hands full.”
“You should sort out the mess with Seth first.”
“Right…”
Cicely responded softly. The two were dragged over to the colored gold counter by E.
After buying some clothes and shoes, Cicely split from Chloe and E at five in the afternoon. She
had a dinner date with Dewey.
By the time Chloe got back to the hotel, it was half past five, and things were starting to get busy
over in Paris.
She called Miles to check in on the situation and see how the artists were doing.
?? ? ????? ??
“We’re bustling around in the hotel now. So far everything’s running smoothly. The artists are all in
good shape. Don’t worry, there shouldn’t be any big issues.”
Chloe frowned, “I need certainty, not possibility, and definitely not just ‘no big issues‘. Everything
should be foolproof right from the start. Don’t underestimate any opportunities around you.”
Miles nodded, “I understand.”
“…I hope you all make it.”
“Thanks, we will.”

After hanging up, Chloe tossed her phone aside.
She decided to stop worrying.
Just waiting quietly for the final result…
Damon seemed to be out, probably tied up with something.
The Harper family also had businesses in R City. It wasn’t unusual for him to take care of some
things while he was here.
She was about to roll over and take a nap, waiting for dinner with Damon.
But just as the thought crossed her mind, there was a noise at the door.
Chloe immediately jumped up from the bed, quickly put on her shoes, and headed for the door.
Damon closed the door, turning to look her way.
He looked a bit surprised when he saw her.
“You’re back?”
Chloe nodded, “Have you eaten yet?”
Damon gave a small smile, walked over to her, and nted a light kiss on her forehead.
“Of course, I’m waiting to eat with you.”
Paris Fashion Week.
Yesterday, fashionistas from all around the world had arrived in Paris after long flights and rest.
Today was the first day of Paris Fashion Week. They showed up at the venue looking fresh and
wless.
Being the youngest international best actor, Winston naturally drew a lot of attention.
Jete and two other artists‘ cars followed behind Winston’s. They had just gotten in the car when
Beverly Rogers and Jacob also emerged from the hotel.
“Is that Winston’s car up ahead?” Beverly asked excitedly. There were fans of Winston outside the
hotel. She thought she heard someone shout Winston’s name.
Jacob nced at the gleaming ck car, helped her into their car, and replied, “It probably is.”
Once they were in the car, Jacob added, “Try to stick close to Winston’s car. That way, when we
show up in front of the media with him, we’ll get more attention.”
Beverly chuckled, “Let’s just let things take their course.”
Jacob looked at her tenderly, “Sometimes, we need to fight for and seize our own fate. How else
could I have married you so quickly?”
Beverly smiled lightly, her makeup perfect, her smile beautiful.
Seeing Beverly’s smile, Jacob gently stroked her cheek.
His face was full of confidence.
“You really don’t need Winston’s help, you’re the real star today… no, you might even outshine
Winston!”
“You’re exaggerating.”
Jacob raised an eyebrow, “Just don’t steal all the limelight from our international best actor.”
Beverly alsoughed confidently, her eyes sparkling with anticipation.
Winston’s car moved off first, followed closely by the cars carrying Jete and the other two
artists.
Ms. Summers had specifically instructed Jete and the others to stick close to Winston. That
way, they would easily draw media attention and also help them shake off some nerves.
But before Jete’s car even had a chance to get rolling, Jacob and Beverly just squeezed their
way in, wedging themselves between them and Winston’s car.
“What in the world?”
“Who’s in that car?”
Jete’s eyes were wide with fury.
They thought they were on a roll, getting looked after by Winston at their first Paris Fashion Week,
even having the chance to boost their poprity.
But…
They were just bumped off like that!
“The people in that car are so disrespectful! Did they know Winston was in the car, is that why they
snatched our spot?!”
“Totally! There’s a swarm of Winston’s fans outside the hotel, how could they not know?”
“Such sneaky snakes!”
