As the lead designer for a top-notch international jewelry brand, her achievements are certainly dazzling to most folks. But stack them next to the Sartori family's fortune, and they don’t shine quite as bright. No matter how brilliant she is, without any influential backing, she's just one person.
These families, with their centuries of heritage and generations of wealth, usually marry off amongst other elite clans, forming power alliances. They care more about the influence and background behind a person.
Everyone thought Chloe might, at best, be the King of Eldridge's muse or a close confidante. But who would've guessed that at the Sartori Corporation's annual gala, they’d drop the bombshell that they were already hitched?
Chloe just kept her cool with a smile throughout. Connor had been itching to make their marriage public, and now, he finally got his chance. He even whipped out their marriage certificate from his pocket, catching Chloe off guard. She hadn’t known he had it on him.
They’d been in Eldridge City for almost two weeks without going back to Riverbrook. So, Connor had been carrying their marriage certificate around all this time? Right then, Connor was happily showing off the marriage certificate to the cameras, as if by accident.
The live streams went wild in seconds.
【No way, they’re actually married! My favorite couple finally made it official. I've gotta take a day off tomorrow to celebrate.】
【Mr. Connor's face when he took out the marriage certificate—he was barely holding it in. Is he love-struck?】
【Who keeps their marriage certificate in their pocket on the red carpet? Love-struck for sure.】
【Mr. Connor, maybe put that certificate away before all this opening and closing gets you a cold.】
【Yes, yes, we see it! You're officially upgraded, no longer just Chloe's Trophy Boy.】
