Chapter 1355
At this point, even Grace had no clue how to console Wendy. After such a big mess, Grace was at a
loss on how to fix things.
Thepany was gone, all the artists and staff had left. Not only had theynded in legal trouble,
but the recent scandal had also left Infinity Media with no chance of bouncing back. Up next, they''d
have to face inspections from different departments.
Grace didn''t even know how to exin this to Cole.
Wendy had single-handedly ruined a perfectly finepany!
This was a big deal, and there was no way to keep it hush-hush.
Right now, Wendy''s mind was nk. She was staring at herputer screen while her face twisted
in agony. ,The screen was filled with mockery and insults aimed at her. She''d never thought she''d
see the day when people would hate her so much. She was even more pitiful than Keira had been.
Wendy had thought that by sending Becky off today, the media would report on her close
rtionship with the royal family of Y Country.
Once the news broke, the pressure on the artists would not onlye from the Alonso family but
also from the royal family of Y Country.
They certainly wouldn''t dare make a move easily. At the same time, she could use this to give Chloe
a warning she wouldn''t forget!
But Chloe had jumped the gun and announced her coboration with Seth. Using Seth''s status in
the entertainment circle of H Country, she''d managed to attract all the artists to Starlight
International!
Wendy was just one step behind. If her rtionship with the royal family of Y Country had been
reported just one minute earlier, things wouldn''t have turned out this way!
Right now, Wendy''s only thought was on how to deal with Chloe. Chloe''s appearance had turned
her life upside down! If not for Chloe, everything would have been hers!
Damon, the position as future matriarch of the Harper family, all the love from the Harper family, the
entire Alonso family, they would all be hers! She would''ve been the envy of all, the happiest woman
in the world!
But now, Damon wasn''t hers, the love of the Harper family wasn''t hers, she''d turned the Alonso
family into a mess, and she''d be theughingstock of the world!
"Mom, I can''t take it anymore! I want to kill Chloe! If I don''t get rid of her, I''ll never be able to let go of
my hatred!"
As Wendy read the insults and mockery online, she swept thest intactputer on her desk onto
the floor. Hearing the sound of theputer crashing, Grace''s heart pounded in fear. But once she
calmed down, even she was seething with anger.
“All this happens and all you know is to throw a tantrum! Have you thought about what to do next?
What''s the use of smashing things? Look at yourself! What''s so special about Chloe? Her family
background isn''t even as good as yours, yet with just Starlight International, she''s managed to push
you to this point?!"
"Then you tell me what I should do now?" Wendy shouted back at Grace in anger.
She was at her wit''s end. She had wanted to bounce back, but then the Human Resources
Manager suddenly revealed the worst scandal!
Now, she was tied up in numerouswsuits, and with everyone knowing the truth, there was no one
in the court she could use. What she had to face next were investigations from various
departments, breach of contracts andpensation.
Thepany was gone, and she had to face hugepensations! What else could she do?
Grace swallowed hard. How could she possibly know what to do? All of Grace''s attention had been
on bing a wealthydy; she had no clue about business.
Grace sat on the sofa, rubbing her forehead, silent for a long while before she finally said, "....Give
up.
At this point, there''s no saving thepany. Calm down, and spend more time with Presley in the
next few days.
"Your father is doing business in the M Country, he should be back in a few days. At that time, if
Presley puts some pressure on Damon, there might still be a chance. Also, isn''t the state banquet of
Y Countrying up... these matters should keep you busy.
"Stop focusing on work. Your main task now is to be thedy of the Alonso family, which is the most
distinguished socialite that everyone aspires to be.
Stop fighting with people who don''t matter, it''s just a waste of time."
Hearing about Cole''s business and the state banquet of Y Country, Wendy slowly calmed down.
Maybe Grace was right, Wendy shouldn''t be focusing on Chloe now.
Compared to Wendy''s current state, Chloe was leisurely heading towards the orphanage. Wendy
didn''t have the energy to mess with her anymore, so she should''ve had a pretty easy time for a
while.
After a busy morning at thepany, she arrived at the orphanage and Cicely was waiting at the
entrance.

Frowning, Chloe got out of the car and walked over to Cicely.
"Why aren''t you going in?" Chloe asked.
Cicely looked up at Chloe with a lollipop in her mouth, but no expression on her face.
Surprised, Chloe asked, "What happened? Did...” Did something happen to Hugo?
But then Cicely grabbed Chloe''s arm. "Why are you only here now?"
“The meeting rante. Why didn''t you go in?" The pain in her arm caused Chloe to frown.
Cicely leaned her forehead against Chloe''s shoulder. "He''s having me followed... he''s got someone
tailing me..."
Seth was still having people tail Cicely? What was he thinking? Chloe furrowed her brows, picking
up the exhaustion and rage in Cicely''s voice.
It had been a whil. Probably since thest time Chloe had brought Cicely here, Cicely hadn''te
by since. Her son, she''d only seen him once since he was born. Now, with just a few steps through
the door, she could see him again. Yet, she had to stop at the entrance.
Cicely''s helplessness and sorrow were heart-wrenching.
Chloe sighed, shooting a nce at her bodyguards behind her. She then took Cicely''s hand. "Let''s
go."
Cicely stood still, shaking her head. "I don''t want to go in."
"No problem, the bodyguards are here. No one can get close to me. You just stick with me."
Cicely looked at the bodyguards who got out of the car, her resolve wavering slightly.
"So..." Cicely hesitated, about to speak when a ck Bugatti slowly parked next to them.
Then, the car door opened, and a tall, strapping figure appeared in their sight.
