The Wife He Dumped, The Queen She Returned As novel Chapter 333

No one in the lobby had expected Chloe—who was always so calm and collected—to strike someone so suddenly.

And to strike Dr. Sharpe's assistant, of all people...

The entire hall fell into a stunned, breathless silence for two full seconds.

Everyone looked at Chloe differently now—their eyes filled with shock, confusion, and a quiet sense of awe.

Lydia’s jaw practically hit the floor. She instinctively grabbed Chloe’s sleeve, whispering frantically.

"Chloe, calm down... Oh my god..."

But Chloe simply dusted off her fingertips, her expression as placid as ever.

She didn't even spare Jenna another glance.

That utter disregard was far more infuriating than any verbal provocation could ever be.

Jenna clutched her face, her features twisted in pure, unadulterated rage.

Ever since she started working for Liana, she had been treated like absolute royalty everywhere she went! When had she ever been humiliated like this?!

"Chloe, you lunatic!" she screeched, lunging forward, her perfectly manicured nails aiming straight for Chloe's face. "You dare offend Dr. Sharpe?!"

Chloe simply stepped aside, smoothly dodging the attack before reaching out and grabbing a fistful of Jenna's hair.

"Ah!" Jenna screamed in agony, thrashing her arms wildly in humiliated fury. "You're dead!!"

Lydia rushed in to intervene, but not to stop Chloe—she immediately pinned Jenna's other arm back.

"Stop fighting! Break it up!"

Chloe tightened her grip on Jenna's hair, eliciting another pathetic wail.

"Let go of me! You shameless bitches, two against one! Let go!"

Right then, a figure sprinted across the hall.

Preston Hayes clamped his hand around Chloe's wrist, his grip punishingly tight. "Let her go."

As soon as Jenna saw him, tears streamed down her face, playing the perfect victim.

"Preston... you're finally here! It hurts so much!"

Preston's expression was grim as he forcefully pried Chloe's hand away.

His gaze settled on Chloe. His dark eyes were unreadable, his voice heavy.

"Chloe, if you're mad at me, there's no need to take it out on Jenna."
