A Billion-Rich Woman Was Chased by Her EX-Husband novel Chapter 279

Chapter 279

 

A cloud of suspicion rose in Chloe’s heart, and she glanced at Joseph quietly. 

She did not understand what this man was up to again! 

The smell of gunpowder was very strong! 

“It’s just ordinary goods. What I do is only ordinary business.” 

Jerome pushed up his glasses. His elegant and refined eyes held an unfathomable smile. Only his slightly stiff lips exposed the hidden anger in his heart. “Mr. Sawle, your imagination is too rich.” 

“Even if you have an prejudice against me, you should not casually guess a person’s character and belittle the value of his creation.” 

Joseph smiled faintly and curved his thin lips. 

“I am different from you, Mr. Sawle. You have been smooth sailing all the way. At a young age, you are the new upstart in the business world and the heir appointed by Old Master Sawle. A wealthy family like you with a golden spoon in your mouth, it is impossible to understand how difficult it is for a entrepreneurwho started from nothing.” 

When Chloe heard this, her long eyelashes fluttered as she took a sip of champagne. Some memories that had been buried in her heart for a long time appeared in her mind. 

In fact, no one knew better than her about Joseph’s situation in Sawle Group. 

He had walked all the way here, and it was far from as easy as Jerome said. 

“I didn’t expect that just a casual question from me would involve so many excuses from Fourth Young Master Xavier. It seems that I made you nervous. Don’t take it to heart. Just take what I heard in Stoeyae’s circle as rumors.” 

Joseph smiled faintly, but his beautiful and shocking face gave off a sense of intimidation. His pitch-black starry eyes flashed with a fierce light. “Also, you said something wrong just now.” 

“I don’t have any prejudice against you, but as long as you approach Chloe, I will have prejudice against you. From head to toe, inside and out, there will be prejudice.” 

Jerome clenched his teeth tightly, his superior lower jaw taut. 

Fran was sandwiched in the middle, listening to the two men’s verbal battle. The undercurrent surged, and her heart slowly became astonished and excited! 

However, because she was Chloe’s eldest sister and a person with an extremely high status, she did not dare to reveal it. She only forcefully pursed her lips and could not help but laugh. 

It felt like this trip back to her mother’s home was not in vain! 

“Joseph, have you said enough?” 

Chloe could not bear it any longer. Her beautiful eyes slanted as she glared fiercely at the cold and handsome man beside her. “If you say anything more, I will beat you up. Do you believe me?” 

Joseph held his breath and clenched the hand that was placed on the table. 

Then, he slowly moved towards her. Then, his fingertips gently touched her round and good-looking wrist bone and rubbed her delicate skin with his sand-like fingertips. 

“Chloe, I was wrong… Don’t be angry, okay?” 

Handsome, sticky, and licking… 

Who could withstand this! 

The warm sensation on her wrist was like a vine that wrapped around Chloe’s wrist, bringing along a thin and dense feeling of numbness that went straight into her heart. 

Seeing that she did not speak, Joseph became even more panicked. His body leaned towards her and he said in a hoarse voice, “Then if you want to hit me with a big stick to vent your anger, it’s fine. Can you wait until we get back?” 

“I am a president after all. Although it’s not much in your eyes, there are so many people here. Please leave me some face.” 

Fran didn’t show it, and she was about to go crazy laughing in her heart! 

Both sisters loved to eavesdrop. 

“You, you just stay here! Hit you… You have thick skin and thick flesh, I’m too lazy to waste this effort!” Chloe snorted coldly, twisted her body, and ignored him. 

Joseph’s affectionate gaze was fixed on her slightly pursed red lips. The tip of his tongue was hot, and his heart was itchy. 

 

He was already thirty years old, but because of this little girl’s every frown and smile, he was so happy that he did not know what to do, like a young man who had just experienced love. 

The changing light and shadows under the stage darkened. 

A bright ray of light that was full of high-quality light descended from the sky, shining on the stage. 

At this time, the master of ceremonies’ clear voice rang out, 

“Everyone has been waiting for a long time, distinguished guests and friends! Let us welcome tonight’s female lead, Ms. Sia!” 

As soon as the voice fell, the audience burst into applause and cheers! 

“Auntie Sia! Auntie Sia!” Chloe was so happy that she called out Sia’s name. Her small hands were red! 

At this time, from the depths of the stage. 

Dressed in a black tower gown, the handsome Stefan held Sia’s hand and walked 

up the stage leisurely. 

“Shit! My father is so damn handsome!” Marble looked at his father, who was more energetic than a young man, and exclaimed. 

A 

“D* mn! His clothes are too grand. Those who don’t know will think that he is going to marry again tonight!” Riley looked at the stage excitedly. 

“Second marriage? Your father got married five more times, right?” 

While playing with Annie’s small hand under the table, Vincent shook his head and joked, “Not bad, one hand counted over.” Suddenly, two cold rays of light cut in front of him, and it was Helena and Freya who looked at him coldly! 

Vincent secretly stuck out his tongue, not daring to be rash. 

Because he was too hungry, Riley stole a piece of cake, and when he was unprepared, he lowered his head and stuffed it into 

his mouth. 

a 

And this scene happened to be arrested on the spot by Rose, who was sitting next to him! 

“Hey, second young master of Thorp family, how can you still steal food?” 

“Cough, cough, cough, cough…” 

Riley was shocked, and the snack was instantly choked! 

“Pfft!” 

Rose saw that his handsome face was red from coughing, and he was rubbing his chest and drinking water. It was so funny that she couldn’t help but laugh. 

Funny! 

This woman… 

hit 

my car and almost choked me to death. She also has Chloe to support her. 

Was she sent by the heavens to mess with me 

“I’m at my own family’s banquet, the food served at my own hotel. Why did I steal it after eating two bites?” Riley held back a breath of anger in his chest and glanced at her with frustration. 

“Even so, there are still your elders here. They haven’t even touched their food yet, yet you already made a move. Where did the rules come from?” 

Rose’s delicate figure tilted, her delicate chin resting on the back of the chair, her smile delicate and mischievous. 

She was like a model carved out from the same mold as his little sister. 

Riley was originally a little agitated, but after seeing this smile, that little bit of emotion was insignificant. 

“Wow! Look! Look! The black and red evening dress that Third Madam is wearing is too beautiful!” 

“It’s true! I discovered it as soon as she appeared. It’s simply a seamless heavenly dress, beautiful and magnificent!” 

Almost all the guests had their eyes on Sia, deeply attracted by the dress she wore, and sighed repeatedly! 

Joseph couldn’t help but look at Sia, and his pupils suddenly shrank! 

Wasn’t the dress that Sia was wearing the same one that Chloe had personally designed in Rose’s studio that day? 

“Oh my god… Am I seeing things?” 

At this time, someone suddenly stood up from his seat and exclaimed, “Isn’t, isn’t this Master Sharon’s work” 

“What? It’s actually Sharon!” 

“Oh my god! I can actually witness the work of Master Sharon in my lifetime? I can die without regrets!” 

“I really want to go up and touch it!” 

“It has been a long time since Sharon left. The moment she came out, she actually designed a birthday robe for Third Madam of Thorp family! The position of Director Thorp in the society can be imagined!” 

On the other hand, the one who was also celebrating her birthday tonight, hmph, she probably wouldn’t make clothes for her even if she knelt in front of Sharon, right 

Joseph suddenly widened his eyes and slowly turned his head, looking at Chloe who was smiling faintly in front of him. 

His eyes were filled with shock and astonishment! 

So… 

She was Sharon. 

She was not only Alexa, but also Sharon! 

Joseph’s breathing became more and more hot, his chest heaved up and down, and all the nerves in his body were paralyzed like lightning! 

How could a person have so many skills at the same time, and all of them had reached the point where he would be amazed even if he looked at the world! 

His little girl, how could she still be a human, she was simply a fairy descending to the world! 

Chloe felt Joseph’s burning gaze, and her bright eyes turned to him, but she was shocked by his red eyes. 

“Why are you looking at me like that? Is the rabies going to flare up?” She mocked mercilessly. 

“I didn’t expect that you would actually… be Sharon.” Joseph’s voice was hoarse as he stared at her. 

“Is there a need to be so surprised? It’s not like it’s your first day meeting Sharon.” 

Chloe chuckled in disapproval and moved her gaze away from the man’s stiff face. “Alexa once made an exclusive collar for you, and Sharon personally made a suit for you.” 

Joseph’s heart tightened, his eyes dim and bleak. 

Yes, at that time, in order to prepare a birthday gift for him, she went to the tailor shop every day to work alone until night fell. 

He was almost wearing that lead needle. 

Every night, he sat alone at the head of the bed, using a clean silk cloth to wipe his heart, as if he had received a treasure. 

In the past, how she had felt when she prepared these gifts for him, and now he cherished them. 

But unfortunately… 

“Ah, but forget it. You didn’t care about who I was in the past. You didn’t care about my talent at all.” 

“The things I gave you were just like my people. They were just there to gather dust.” Chloe supported her chin with one hand and looked at the liveliness on the stage. 

“Chloe, I was the one who let you down. I was the one who missed you. But now, I would rather let the world down. I will never let you down again.” 

Joseph took a deep breath. His words were so sincere that he wished he could dig out his true heart and give it to her. “I know that it is very difficult for you to give me a chance. You don’t even want to give me a chance at all.” 

“But I will not give up. I will persevere until the moment my heart stops beating.” 

“Joseph, between us it is all of regrets and sadness.” 

“That is,” Chloe finally looked at him again, but it was cold, cold, indifferent, and heartless. “That is, the water is hard to collect, the broken mirror is hard to be round again.” 

“Chloe..” 

“I believe that there is a miracle in the world, but I do not believe that the water can be collected and the broken mirror can be round. Even if it can, it is still a dirty mess, full of devastation, and can not return to its former appearance.” 

Because of Sia’s dress, the birthday banquet was pushed to the climax of the first wave! 

There were even many guests who secretly took photos of Sia’s peerless appearance and posted it on the Internet. 

When the reporters smelled the news, they were like sharks smelling blood. Soon, the news of Sia wearing Sharon’s dress to celebrate her birthday was fired up. 

In just a quarter of an hour, the topic of Sharon customizing Sia’s battle robe # was quickly posted on the Internet! 

[Sia, Stefan’s Third Madam, once the female celebrity! How could Sharon make clothes for her!] 

[Amazing! This black and red evening dress is so beautiful that it makes me suffocate!]
