Chapter 241 Chloe Has to Die
“I told you it was Calvin. How many times do you want to ask me that?”
Diego did not dare to expose Joseph because Joseph was not a kind man.
Joseph was cold, cruel, and resolute, and enjoyed a great reputation in the business field. Hence, Diego could not afford to offend Joseph. After all, he was now in conflict with Calvin. It was unnecessary to offend another person.
Karen knitted her brows. “Calvin adores Ava very much. I’m sure he won’t say this kind of thing to the others.”
“Does he?” Diego’s eyes were full of sarcasm. “Don’t tell me Ava is his daughter.”
‘Did Karen blackmail me to cheat me out of my money?’ Diego felt that Karen was capable of such a thing.
“Cut the crap! I don’t even know Calvin.”
“Then explain to me why he’s so nice to your daughter.”
Karen threatened him, “It’s none of your business. In short, I don’t want anyone else other than us to learn about our past relationship. If you expose it… Well, I don’t mind taking Ava back to the Baileys and letting her be reunited with her true family.”
Diego smacked the table fiercely. He was so angry that his beer belly was shaking. “You’re shameless!” The thing he regretted the most in his life was being tricked by Karen twenty years ago and sleeping with her. She was most probably entangled with that fool Benjamin at
that time.
Karen did not care about his fury. She picked up the bag she just bought and left smugly like a noble lady.
Diego did not linger there for long either. He left the cafe after Karen had walked far away, purposely putting some distance between them.
Unexpectedly, that scene was snapped by a private detective who hid in the dark. He then sent the photographs to his employer, and in less than five minutes, a large reward was deposited into his bank account.
When Lucas received the photographs, he reported the incident to Joseph right away.
“Email them to Benjamin anonymously.”
Lucas nodded and did as instructed.
Benjamin saw the photographs in his email before Karen got home. At a glance, he recognized that it was Diego. When he was young, both he and Diego had been competitors. At last, he won and gained the heart of the beautiful woman.
When he saw these photographs, he became quite ill at ease. He immediately called Karen to interrogate her.
Karen had been around when she was young, and her skills had not faded with time. In just a few words, she explained that she had met Diego by chance. Besides, they did not behave impudently in the photographs, so Benjamin believed her.
After hanging up the phone, Karen felt that someone was secretly scheming against her, but she could not figure out who it was. She simply asked Ava to try her best to make Summertainment hers. Although it was a small company, its profits could reach 14 million
every year.
After Ava heard this, she drove over to meet Calvin. Surprisingly, Calvin agreed to it very straightforwardly. He stroked Ava’s head and said kindly, “I have no children. All my properties will be yours in the future. You can learn management with this small company
now. It’s fine even if we make a loss.”
Incredulity washed over Ava. She curried favor with him coquettishly, “Thank you, Godpa. I’ll never let you down.”
