**A Promise Hidden in the Quiet Rain by Adrian Hale**
**Chapter 142: Chloe’s Evidence**
Arthur shook his head vehemently, desperation creeping into his voice. “Chloe, please! It’s not what you think! There’s nothing going on between Jennifer and me! How many times do I have to repeat myself? Why do you refuse to believe me?”
Chloe’s expression remained icy, her gaze unwavering as it shifted to Jennifer. “Jennifer, let me make this clear. Whether you desire Arthur, the Myers family, or the Myers Group—that’s entirely your concern. I’ve already stepped back. So why do you persist in provoking me, just to elicit a response?”
Jennifer feigned innocence, her voice laced with a hint of confusion. “Chloe, what are you even talking about? I truly don’t understand.”
With a sharp exhale, Chloe decided to cut through the pretense. “You don’t? Allow me to jog your memory.” In one swift motion, she retrieved her phone and pressed play on a brief video clip.
The footage was brief yet powerful, captured in the dimly lit recesses of a bar. A figure, clad in peculiar attire, sat across from Linda, who appeared visibly uncomfortable. The audio was muted, but the visuals were damning; the oddly dressed individual was seen handing over photographs of Chloe and Landon to Linda.
In an instant, everything fell into place.
So this was the origin of all those scandalous online revelations. But who could that strange figure be?
Arthur’s heart raced as he watched the video unfold.
While others might have struggled to identify the individual in disguise, Arthur’s recognition was instantaneous.
Those eyes… unmistakable…
It was Jennifer. But why the elaborate costume? The realization hit him hard—she had orchestrated this. The evidence of Jennifer’s actions left him reeling.
He knew Landon was Chloe’s superior. When the scandal had erupted online, he had even contemplated stepping forward to clarify the situation.
But Jennifer had urged him to hold back, advising him to think carefully before acting. And now, with this irrefutable evidence laid bare, it was all Jennifer’s doing?
What could possibly motivate her to resort to such tactics?
If this situation wasn’t handled with utmost care… he shuddered at the thought of the fallout.
How could this be possible? What kind of connections did Chloe possess that allowed her to obtain such incriminating evidence?
“Jennifer, is this true? Why would you do something like this?” Arthur’s voice broke the silence, laced with disbelief.
His tone trembled, and Jennifer felt her heart plummet. In Arthur’s eyes, she was the epitome of perfection. Chloe didn’t even begin to compare to her, a world-class pianist.
Now, with Chloe exposing everything, Jennifer felt her carefully constructed image begin to crumble—in the eyes of her fans, and especially in Arthur’s.
There was no way she could admit to it.
“Chloe, I understand you don’t like me because of Arthur. But if you’re going to accuse me, at least come up with a more plausible reason. I would never stoop to such low tactics,” Jennifer’s tone hardened, her indignation rising.
“You wield your power now, so you can label anyone however you please. I’m just an ordinary woman. How could I ever compete with you? You’re the one who calls the shots—no one dares to oppose you.”
“At least you acknowledge that you can’t hold a candle to me. So why do you keep trying to stir up trouble?” Chloe’s voice dropped, her anger simmering just beneath the surface. “If you’re claiming this is fabricated, then…”
