Chapter 1113
Facing Wendy’s agitation, Chloe remained incredibly chill. “Or should I say, ‘an eye for an eye‘?”
Chloe didn’t deny it. She had no idea Austin was Melinda’s dad. She only found out when she overheard Dorthy and the others talking about it. But, she didn’t pay much attention to it at first.
Whether it was Philip betraying Melinda or Melinda meddling in Philip’s relationship, Crysti ended up getting hurt. Firstly, she didn’t like Philip at all. Secondly, Melinda was one of Wendy’s artists. And Crysti was now her partner and she had a duty to protect her, no brainer.
The script in Philip’s hands, according to Crysti, was really good. So if it clashed with her drama’s schedule, it would definitely compete for TV ratings, so taking some preventative measures wouldn’t hurt.
Moreover, Melinda was an artist of Infinity Media, a company with strong financial resources, bullying its way into the entertainment industry, blocking many opportunities for new artists. She was a businesswoman, and without means she wouldn’t have gotten this far,
As a leader, she had a responsibility to protect her artists and provide them with opportunities. These opportunities shouldn’t be seized by others out of nowhere.
From any angle, she couldn’t let Melinda off easily. But she didn’t foresee that things would coincide like this. She hadn’t figured out how to deal with Melinda yet, and Melinda’s father came to her.
When she found out at the front desk that Austin was Melinda’s father, she never even thought about using Austin for anything. It wasn’t until she met Austin, who suddenly declared himself her lover, that she thought of taking advantage of the situation…
So she had Makenna insult her, and had Rhoda spread her awkward image online. By the time Damon was backing her up, it also cost Wendy a valuable artist, showed Philip how wrong his choice was, and gave Crysti a sense of vindication.
This was when Wendy truly felt the fear of Chloe. She took down all the people she didn’t like in one go.
Austin, Makenna, Melinda, Philip, and her! And Rhoda, who Wendy didn’t know about.
Everyone… This woman, this cunning woman!
Such a deep plot! This kind of win–win situation, who could have thought it out as carefully as she did?
“Just for an Austin, you actually… went this far!”
Chloe just smiled, “I’m just making full use of resources! To be fair, I learned this from you. Have you forgotten how you used Felix and Elsa to embarrass me?”
“Who likes to be bullied for no reason? I certainly don’t, and I’m not a generous person. At times like this, if I don’t get back double what I lost, I would feel like I’m letting myself down.”
Wendy was shaking all over, “I didn’t do anything to you this time!”
Chloe suddenly laughed, as if Wendy had just told a very funny joke.
“We are competitors, aren’t we? So, just because you didn’t do anything to me, doesn’t mean I’ll let you off! It’s all for our own benefit! Remember when Infinity Media poached my artists and resources? Did I complain then?”
Wendy was so angry that she almost fainted. So, Chloe didn’t say anything at the time, but now she’s taking revenge at the first opportunity?! Wendy was furious and suddenly sneered. “You’re great… you’re really great! Chloe, enjoy your triumph… I don’t believe that you’ll always be on top!” Chloe’s smile didn’t falter, “Life is full of ups and downs, that’s what makes it interesting! Everyone has bad luck sometimes. If one day you really defeat me, then congratulations!”
She appeared calm and composed, without any sign of losing.
Wendy sneered, her eyes filled with deep hatred. “Just you wait! Chloe, I will leave you with nothing!”
“That bad?” Chloe raised an eyebrow, “Fair competition makes you hate me enough to leave me with nothing? Ms. Wendy was really tough. But didn’t you start with this goal? We both knew what was going on, so why were you acting so extreme now?”
From the get–go, Wendy never planned to let her off easy. Once they decided to fight, of course, they had to fight to the end. Who would quit halfway? Besides, with all the advantages Wendy had, how could she give up halfway?
Wendy knew she couldn’t underestimate this woman. She was already on high alert. But every time, she was caught off guard by this woman.
No matter how prepared she was, it was useless. Her tactics, time and time again, exceeded Wendy’s expectations.
The atmosphere in the meeting room fell into silence. The sound from the multimedia was particularly grating.
The news being broadcasted was about the current situation of Austin’s Hardware, partners withdrawing investments, bank loans terminated, all investment projects halted, stocks plummeting, shareholders selling off their stocks, with no one buying!
In just over an hour since the incident, Austin’s company was on the brink of bankruptcy.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride
did it really end this way. can I have the rest of the book ending??...
So, all of them were basically forced into sexual acts by their partners the first time, then their partners wanted to seclude them from everyone. On top of that, all of are jealous of their own children. The only couple that seem to have it good were Azriel & Phoebe. This book was honestly quite sickening & there’s no way anyone should find this romantic...
