In the city of P City, Chloe’s experiences were widely known by almost everyone. Therefore, their knowledge of Carolina was not entirely ignorant. In fact, they were quite familiar with her. It was precisely because of this familiarity that they viewed Carolina with disdain upon her appearance here.
Chloe's fiancé was the eldest grandson of the Harper Group, who had even given up his place as the Group's chairman for her, and didn't give a hoot about the CEO position. However, none of this could change the fact that he was the eldest grandson of the Harper Group. Even without a company, he wouldn't necessarily be less than others.
Chloe herself was the CEO of a top domestic entertainment company. She was internationally renowned as a perfumer. At the same time, she was the legal person of multiple companies, and one of the major shareholders of Peck Innovations. A while ago, she was recognized by Queen Julia of Y Country and became the princess of Y Country. Who wouldn't envy such a legendary life?
Carolina was no different. Although she did not have a life like Chloe's, Chloe was her granddaughter, which was enough to satisfy her vanity and make her proud. With such an outstanding granddaughter, how could she not want a piece of the good fortune?
Regardless, she was always Ms. Summers' grandmother. The bystanders couldn't really say anything, but their contempt for her was not hidden. The things Carolina had done to Chloe, one by one, were all sigh-inducing. If there was a rotten grandmother in this world like Carolina, it would be the pits.
When they saw Chloe's arrival, they were all inevitably anxious yet excited. They really didn't know what attitude Ms. Summers would have towards such a grandmother.
Regardless, Carolina now clearly had an attitude of being ready to do whatever it takes, shameless and all. If she had indeed made up her mind to get close to Chloe...
If they were Chloe, they really wouldn't know what to do.
"What an unfortunate coincidence, running into her like this."
"Wonder what this old hag is up to now."
"Haha, now that she's got nothing, she's probably here to mooch off Chloe's good fortune."
The whispers of the crowd made Carolina turn her head and see Chloe standing not far away. Her expressions went through a series of changes.
Chloe squinted at her; the changes in her expression were too amusing. She clearly felt embarrassed at the sight of Chloe, but she still tried to put on a kindly smile.
After so many years, Carolina's attitude towards Chloe had become a habit. Even if she tried, she couldn't put on a kindly smile for Chloe. So in the end, she just put on a stern face, deciding to treat Chloe as usual. That way, she wouldn't seem pretentious and it would be perfectly normal.
Her expressions were so colourful that Chloe couldn't help but laugh inside.
Carolina walked up to Chloe and looked her up and down. Chloe was wearing a caramel-coloured down jacket, tall and straight, with her hands in her pockets, standing upright. Her face was especially clean. When Carolina used to see her, she always had a light layer of makeup on, but now it was clear that apart from having great skin, there seemed to be no makeup on her face.
Image and temperament were very important to a person's impression, and smart women knew how to show their charm. Especially now, women's makeup was also a sign of respect for others. As a woman and the top executive of a company, Chloe's image directly represented the image of the company.
Carolina's pickiness towards Chloe had become a habit, seeing her without makeup, she immediately frowned and said, "As the image of the company, you go out without makeup. Don't you know that your behavior might be looked down upon?"
Chloe heard Carolina's accusation and her eyebrows furrowed slightly. "Looked down upon? By who?"
"Of course, the Summers. Now that there are no basic rules left in you, how will others judge our Summers family's upbringing."
Chloe sneered, "I'm the one making the Summers humiliated?"
She turned her eyes, stared into Carolina's eyes, and spoke again, this time with a hint of sarcasm in her tone. "Does the Summers family even have any dignity left for me to lose?"
The current status of the Summers family in P City was well known.
"Why aren't you at the hospital taking care of your granddaughter? Why are you here meddling in my business?"
Carolina's face immediately turned gloomy, cold and stiff. But she didn't know what to say. She was facing the young woman in front of her, who was much taller than her, her face full of irony. Every expression, every look, and every word could leave her speechless. But she couldn't just let her dictate. "Don't use others to block me. What I do to her is my business, but no matter what, I am your grandmother. Watch your attitude towards me. Not acknowledging your family is not gonna work well for you. Even for the sake of your company and your own image, you should know what to say and what not to say."
"Ms. Carolina, don't forget that we have no relationship now. How I am evaluated is my business, and..." Chloe took two steps back, creating a distance between herself and Carolina. "Even if people criticize me, it's much better than cheating the judges and stealing other people's perfume formulas. I can bear that that kind of criticism, and anything happens after that in the future will not be a problem for me. Just take care of your own business. Now, please leave my company immediately."
Carolina immediately turned red with anger, "What do you mean we have no relationship? I am your grandmother. This is a fact that will never change."
Chloe took a deep breath and looked at her calmly, "Ms. Carolina."
"What do you mean Ms. Carolina, I am your grandmother."
Chloe squinted her eyes slowly, her gaze cold as ice. "Granny?" The sarcasm in her voice was palpable. "Should I call those who accused me of seducing the judges, stealing Keira's perfume formula, and constantly tried to hook me up with other men, or simply not cared about whether I live or die, my granny?"
Carolina's face heated up in an instant. Each of Chloe's words, every single syllable, felt like a sharp knife slashing across her face. The pain was unbearable. Her eyes flickered, not daring to meet Chloe's gaze, which further revealed her helplessness. "I admit that what I did in the past was wrong and I apologize to you."
Chloe simply smiled, offering no response.
Seeing Chloe's lack of reaction to her words, Carolina suddenly let out a long sigh.

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...
