The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride novel Chapter 680

Chapter 680 

Chloe flashed a slight smile. “If we’re really in this together for the company, why are you so hell–bent on prying these shares from me?” 

Her seemingly nonchalant words made Keira’s face flush with embarrassment and her eyes twitch slightly. 

Chloe laid bare her hypocrisy. If it was all about gaining more benefits and power, there was no need for all the fancy talk, 

“I’ve got my own company to manage. Since Carolina trusts you that much, I hope you won’t let her down. As for me… I’ll just be a regular shareholder, collecting a bit of dividends each year. Not too shabby.” 

Carolina’s face darkened; Chloe’s words stung. 

Chloe still held fifteen percent of the shares. A thought that left a bitter taste in Carolina’s mouth. After all the fuss, Chloe still held a significant share. 

Chloe picked up her glass of water, taking a delicate sip before speaking in a light tone, 

“Shall we proceed? Are we still discussing our wedding gifts?”

Chloe ran a hand through her hair, giving a resigned laugh as she slouched on the couch armrest. 

“Not only am I without wedding gifts, but I also have to pay for hers? I’m not her mom, why should I treat her so well?” 

“How dare you!” 

Carolina’s reprimand rang out as soon as Chloe finished her sentence. However, Chloe merely glanced at her, then turned to Keira, continuing on her own accord, “Or maybe if you call me ‘master‘ right now, I’ll consider it a willing gift. How about that?” 

Keira’s face turned beet red. The smirk that had crept onto her face upon receiving most of Carolina and Nick’s shares was now replaced by humiliation. She bit her lip, looking at Chloe in a pitiful manner, and whispered,
