Chapter 295 Say No to a Woman Like Her
Chloe slowly looked away from the financial report and fixed her gaze on Ava’s face. She chuckled lightly, “If you don’t want others to know about it, then don’t do it. As simple as that.
Some actions came with consequences that had to be borne.
“Don’t give me that nonsense. My mother was Daddy’s first love. It was your mother who came later and snatched her place. In the end, she couldn’t even take care of him due to her ailing body. My mother merely put her out of her misery!”
Chloe’s expression turned cold, and she swiftly picked up a cup of hot coffee from the table. and splashed it on Ava’s face. The scalding coffee caused Ava to scream in pain and grimace, as if ready to lunge at Chloe in retaliation. However, Chloe swiftly sidestepped, evading her attack and leaving her falling to the floor in a clownish manner.
With her face now splashed with the coffee, Ava’s expression turned fierce as she menacingly threatened, “Tell the police to release my mother right now or you’ll regret it!”
“Oh? And how will I regret it?”
“Jonathan Whitman is my boyfriend. He’s the heir of the greatest family in Docwood. With a mere wave of his fingers, he can make your life a living hell!”
Chloe’s gaze shimmered with intrigue. ‘Isn’t Jonathan Joseph’s cousin? But that doesn’t make
sense.’
The impression he left on her during their last encounter was that of someone who despised the less privileged. Why would he associate with someone like Ava, who lacked any notable background? Was it because of Calvin?
Observing Chloe’s lack of response, Ava assumed she had been intimidated and rose from the floor with an air of arrogance. Sneering, she uttered, “Be sensible and go talk to the police soon. Tell them that you fabricated all of this and have my mother released. If I happen to be in a generous mood, I may choose to spare you.”
Chloe smiled. “Do you think the police are a bunch of idiots? Instead of coming to me, why don’t you go find Wren and see if you can persuade her not to testify in court?”
Ava gritted her teeth and snarled, “I don’t need you to teach me what to do!”
She knew very well that the most effective approach was to find Wren, but Wren had already been detained and she could not meet her. That’s why she had no choice but to seek out Chloe.
“Since you’re well aware of that, please leave. I’m sure you’re well aware that although the Johnsons may not earn a lot of money, we do have plenty of security guards.”
Ava felt a chill run down her spine as she worried that Chloe might resort to extreme
measures. Choosing not to linger, she clenched her teeth and cursed, “Your mother deserved to die early! With a daughter like you, she couldn’t have lived long anyway. Just wait and see. I won’t let you off the hook, you f*cking b*tch!”
Chloe furrowed her brow, but in the next moment, a quick realization dawned upon her. If Ava had not actively provoked her, she could pretend to know nothing. However, since Ava chose the most offensive words to attack her, it was impossible for her to remain indifferent.
After all these years, she finally understood that reasoning with Karen and Ava was futile. To deal with the devil, one must become the devil. The Whitmans had a private chat group, and Harold had added Chloe. The group consisted of a small number of members, totaling to six, including Jonathan.
Chloe added Jonathan, and the acceptance of her friend request came in the evening. In
response, Jonathan promptly sent a question mark, asserting his presence and putting up a strong front.
Chloe wasted no time and sent him the details of Ava’s past misdeeds. Shortly after, Jonathan made a voice call, his tone filled with interrogation. “How do you know so much? What evidence do you have to prove that Ava is such a person?”
“It doesn’t matter if you believe me or not. Feel free to ask around,” Chloe replied calmly.
Jonathan did not trust Chloe wholeheartedly. He turned to his mother and sought her advice. If what Chloe said was true, he would never allow such a woman to enter the Whitman family.
