The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride novel Chapter 138

Chapter 138 

Carolina’s expression and posture seemed way off the chart 

Chloe frowned uncomfortably. 

“This is the lady of the Summers family? Damn… she looks even more stunning than what I’ve heard!” 

Connor, standing aside, suddenly spoke with a grin. 

He knew the rumors about Chloe, of course. 

But he never expected Chloe to be this gorgeous. 

Connor’s eyes behind his gold rimmed glasses unabashedly took in Chios 

Stunning! 

Absolutely stunning! 

Especially her refreshing and clean unique aura, something no other woman could replicate 

That noble aura, seemingly approachable yet untouchable, was indeed heart fluttering 

Carolina at the side saw through Connor’s thoughts and smiled satisfied 

However, Chloe remained silent. Carolina’s face changed. 

“Chloe! Mr. Jewell is talking to you, didn’t you hear?!” 

Carolina reprimanded Chloe in a low voice, her eyes full of warning 

Chloe’s eyes suddenly turned icy, meeting Carolina’s gaze head–on. 

Carolina felt a chill run down her spine. 

Connor’s gaze lingered on Chloe’s cold yet beautiful face, her icy demeanor piqued his interest even more. 

“Hey, Carolina, don’t be too harsh.” 

Carolina pulled a stiff smile, “Mr. Jewell, sorry for the scene, my granddaughter can be quite a handful.” 

“What’s the big deal, it just shows Ms. Summers‘ uniqueness.” 

Carolina chuckled and turned her head, only to see Chloe was pulled aside by Rose Davis. 

Connor’s gaze stayed on Chloe’s retreating figure, a smug smile playing at his lips. 

Keira found out from a waiter that Lance was on the terrace in the corridor. 

She gently walked up behind him, wrapping her arms around his waist, her body pressed against his back. 

“Lance…” 

Lance frowned, glanced at the hands suddenly appeared around his waist, and slowly turned around. 

“Why are you here, aren’t you cold?” 

Keira asked him cautiously, but got no reply from Lance. 

“Lance, do you love me?” 

Keira bit her lip, her eyes welling up with tears. 

Lance’s gaze grew complicated, he didn’t expect her to ask this out of the blue. 

*… You know what? I feel really insecure. I knew about your engagement with Chloe, but I still fell for you. I want to do my best, to make everyone believe I’m the one who deserves to be with you. 

I thought tonight was the moment to prove it all, but I didn’t expect Chloe to show up at the party with such stunning and high–headed attitude. 

Everyone was fascinated by her, including you! 

Lance, did you realize how you looked at her tonight? Every glance you threw at her was like a knife stabbing into my heart.
