Chapter 427 A Business Talk Becomes a Matchmaking Session
“You’re Ms. Chloe, right?” The woman sized Chloe up before extending her hand. “Let me introduce myself. I’m Amber Garcia, Kevin Garcia’s wife. I’m here today to discuss business on his behalf.”
Chloe found this a little strange but remained composed. “Nice to meet you. Come, let’s talk in my office.”
“No, I picked a place-the cafe across from your company building.”
This was beyond Chloe’s imagination. “Please wait. I need to grab the documents from upstairs.”
When they got to the cafe, Chloe saw another man sitting there and waiting for them. He was about thirty-five years old and looked pretty ordinary but had on a Rolex watch. While staring at her, his gaze was intense and lustful.
Chloe remained calm. “Mrs. Amber, who’s this?”
“Let me get straight to the point. It’s not easy for a girl to live alone and support herself. You’re at the age at which you should be married. This is a friend of mine from university. He was married once, but don’t worry, he’s very well-to-do.”
Deep bewilderment was written across Chloe’s charming face. “If I’m not mistaken, we’re here to talk business, not for a matchmaking session, right?”
“To be honest, I love Xavia’s performances. I also feel great compassion for her given the incident that happened to her. We’re all women, and I hope you can understand her. Don’t ruin others’ marriages. It’s immoral and against societal norms, You should understand this, right?
Chloe was finally enlightened. “You’re fans of Xavia?”
The latter raised her head high. “No, we’re more than that. We’re friends.”
Amber had watched the live stream that day and felt very sorry for Xavia due to her own. unstable marriage with her husband all these years. There was even once when a shameless homewrecker came into their house.
After that incident, she forgave her husband, but they had since become estranged. She even had early onset of menopause, and could only find solace in Xavia’s performances. She then became Xavia’s friend after attending the latter’s performances often.
Amber had overheard from her husband yesterday that the company that had wanted to cooperate with them was founded by the homewrecker. Hence, an idea dawned on her.
She felt that she should introduce a man to Chloe. It would help preserve Xavia’s position as the first wife and could also move the homewrecker to tears.
Chuckling, Chloe explained, “I don’t marry divorced men.”
Hearing this, the man sitting there had a change of expression. Amber quickly tried to mediate the situation. “Divorced men have more advantages than men who marry for the first time.. They know how to take care of people and handle their marriages well. The most important thing is that this gentleman’s company is even bigger than my husband’s. Your career will become much easier if you get together with him.”
“In that case, you can divorce your husband and marry this gentleman.” Chloe crossed her arms and leaned back on her heels, teasing Amber. “After all, you guys are university mates, and this can be considered a university love affair. Isn’t he much better than Mr. Kevin?”
Somberness was currently the only emotion on Amber’s face. “I’m introducing you to a good man, yet your words are so rude.”
“Tsk, a good guy?” Chloe’s voice slowed. “He’s just a tiny bit wealthy but useless. He can’t compare to Joseph Whitman in the slightest.”
When the man heard Joseph’s name, his expression instantly changed. He roared at Amber.
“Are you fucking trying to ruin me?! You’re trying to set me up with Joseph’s woman?!”
Was she just trying to ruin him?
