Chapter 1485


    On the ne, Chloe was browsing through local news. When she came across the mess Wendy


    made at Abrd’s birthday bash, she didn’t know what to make of it.


    As a woman, Chloe wasn’t gloating over Wendy’s predicament. But as an adversary, especially one


    who had been harassed by Wendy time and again, she didn’t feel any sympathy for Wendy’s


    plight.


    From the video recorded at the time, Chloe might have pieced together a few things. The Alonso


    family and the Bowles family had no particr connection, but why did Wendy suddenly show up


    at Abrd’s birthday party? It was as Angie had told her before, that the Alonso family wanted


    Phoebe Alonso to marry Abrd.


    To ensure Phoebe’s sessful marriage, she did not doubt that Wendy and Grace would resort to


    some dirty tricks.


    In the end, it was Wendy who got the short end of the stick, not Phoebe. You could say it was karma


    for Wendy. She tried to screw over others but ended up screwing herself over instead.


    Compared to Chloe’s understanding of Wendy, Phoebe, who was with her day and night, knew her


    better. Seeing through Wendy’s tricks was a piece of cake for Phoebe. But Wendy never expected


    that the previously docile and inconspicuous Phoebe would suddenly fight back.


    Nathan sat in his chair, shaking his head as he read the news in his hand. “Wendy even got


    rejected for her own wedding proposal. She’s really screwed.” Kane said, “I can’t believe the once


    gentle Wendy would turn out like this when she grew up.”


    “Maybe she was spoiled when she was a child. She got whatever she wanted and was used to


    being adored. It’s messed up her character.”


    “That’s why you have to be careful when spoiling someone. Excessive pampering can easily lead


    someone astray.”


    As Nathan spoke, he subtly nced at Damon.


    Nathan’s hint was crystal clear. However, Damon didn’t respond. Nathan pursed his lips, regretting


    bringing up the boring topic. “Without any investment, the Alonso Corporation is definitely stuck in a


    rut this time. Chloe, what are you nning to do?”


    Chloe contínued looking at her phone, casually replying, “Obviously, I’m going to buy the Alonso


    Corporation as soon as possible.”


    She nced at Damon and said, “The Alonso family left a 20% investment space for the Harper


    family. I saw in the news that Robin ns to invest, but I don’t know if this investment will be


    transferred to the Alonso Corporation in advance.”


    “No way,” Damon said. “Robin is very cautious. Even if he wants to invest, he will wait until Ava’s


    family’s funds are confirmed before he makes a move.” Chloe quickly swiped her phone screen and


    called Axel. The phone was quickly connected, and Axel’s voice was full of enthusiasm and


    excitement. “Ms Summers, what can I do for you?”


    Chloe was not in the mood for small talk with Axel and immediately said, “Recall those shares of the


    Alonso Corporation in the stock market now…”


    Axelughed. “Ms. Summers, there’s no need to rush. The recovery of those shares was arranged


    long ago. We’ve been working on multiple fronts to prevent anyone from getting a jump on us. Plus,


    Yasmine Has repeatedly stressed this, so don’t worry…”


    Chloe was slightly relieved, “That’s good…”


    Axel added, “However, there will always be oversights. A very small part of the shares were


    grabbed…


    Chloe frowned slightly. “The Harper family?”


    “…Yes. Ms. Summers, you’re really smart.”


    “How much?”


    “The Harper family grabbed three percent. The rest, over thirty percent of the shares, are in our


    hands.”


    “Well, that’s okay.”


    “Ms. Summers, what’s the next step?”


    Chloe raised an eyebrow. Hadn’t she been hearing this question a lottely? “… Just hold on to


    them for now, let’s wait and see”


    Axel chuckled. “I must say, you and Yasmine are really in sync. Even your ways of tormenting


    people are identical.”


    N?velDrama.Org is the owner.


    Obviously, Yasmine had made arrangements in advance, it just so happened that Chloe and


    Yasmine were on the same page.


    Thinking about having the same idea as Yasmine, Chloe couldn’t help but crack a smile. Chloe had


    always admired and envied her mother’s confident and strategic demeanor as a child. Now, to be


    compared to her by Axel was undoubtedly the bestpliment for Chloe.


    Her smile didn’tst long before she felt two pairs of eyes on her. She retracted her smile and said,


    “I’m hanging up.”


    Chloe didn’t give Axel a chance to respond and ended the call.


    Damon nced at Chloe’s phone and saw the name in the call log, his face turned even grimmer.


    Damon was still sulking.


    Nathan leaned in and said, with a hint of seriousness, “Chloe, why are you suddenly in such a hurry


    to reim the shares of Alonso Corporation?” Chloe replied, “The Harper Group has already


    grabbed three percent of the shares.”


    three


    Damon’s expression was unchanged. However, Nathan frowned and then scoffed. “So that’s


    Robin’s n. The twenty percent investment is entirely for his own benefit! He ns to slowly take


    over the Alonso Corporation from Wendy after she takes over. His ambitions are not small! He


    wants the Harper Group, and he also wants to swallow the Alonso Corporation whole…”

    Anyway, the Alonso familypany would be his in the future, so this 20% investment now was


    like investing in himself. No wonder Robin was bending over backward to support Wendy as the


    head of the Alonso family.


    Wendy was such a ditz, wasn’t it gonna be a piece of cake for Robin to take over the Alonso


    family?


    Robin didn’t see the 20 billion investment in Alonso Corporation failing out of the blue, with


    the market value experiencing two major drops, each causing


    incalcble losses.


    Now the stocks were tanking again, and the Alonso Corporation was at its wits end. At this point,


    Robin seized the opportunity to snatch up shares of the Alonso family. Too bad for him, Yasmine


    beat him to the punch.


    So, Robin only managed to get his hands on 3% of the shares. But this move totally blew his


    cover. Now Robin’s actions and words didn’t match, which was bound to stir up a ho’s nest.


    Damon didn’t take a clear stand on this. It was as if everything ying out was as expected, and


    there were no surprises to him.


    Nathan looked at Damon and asked, “Damon, what’s your game n? Weren’t we supposed to


    fight the Harper Group tooth and nail?” With a poker face, Damon poured a ss of milk and


    handed it to Chloe.
