Kelvin took on a ghastly expression and Chloe didn’t know why.
After taking the earrings out of the jewelry box for quite some time, Kelvin seemed to have confirmed something. He went to the study room opposite and took out an aged black-and-white photo. It seemed old because the corners of the photo were yellow.
The photo was of a young woman in a cheongsam, about eighteen to nineteen years old. She was a beauty that looked indifferent. She wore a golden necklet around her neck with two different sizes of jade. Although the jades were old, the smooth outline of the jades could still be seen clearly.
“This is?” Chloe was a little puzzled.
Kelvin compared the earrings and put down the photo.

“After Aiden had the accident, Kelvin kept Aiden near him. An investigation was done but there was no clue. It was just that the nanny played hooky from work to go out at that time and it was not the first time she played hooky from work. Aiden had been obedient so nothing d. However, the day before Aiden encountered the accident, he suffered a cold fever and he felt uncomfortable and that was why he would have the accident.” David could remember clearly the matter that year because after knowing Kelvin for a long, it was the first time he saw Kelvin become so angry. After all, Aiden was his biological son. Although he said he did not care and he simply got a son for himself as a way to deal with Edward who wanted him to settle down and have a family, he was more anxious than anyone else if Aiden encountered an accident. “What happened to the na
Chloe did not let the news weigh her down too much. It was just a passing matter that would be forgotten with time. Even though the media worded it unpleasant way, it was still personal. The fans were making a fuss now, but they, ultimately, would not go overboard. She just had to be more cautious over the next couple of days. Jenny had been overly frantic. Kelvin's attitude was the normal rational response.Before leaving her office in the afternoon, Chloe turned off her computer and gathered her things.The employees in the office had not left yet. Glancing at her watch, she looked back up and said, “Get off work when it’s time. We’re not busy these days, so you can go home on time. Don’t wait for me.”They all let out a sigh of relief and were finally able to smile. “What? You guys are afraid that I’ll tell you guys to work overtime, right?” Hayden asked while smiling. &
Aiden being unable to speak had always been a sore point for Edward. After all, Kelvin had entrusted Aiden into his care and the incident happened under his watch. It weighed down on his conscience for years. He kept blaming himself for not having made sure that Aiden was well taken care of.When Chloe brought it up again, he also felt that there was something fishy about the incident that year.After dinner, Perry went to see Chloe and the rest of them off at the entrance. Standing on the other side of the car door, he assured, “Don’t worry, Miss Crowther. We might have fired the nanny, but we still have her file in our records. I’ll search for it tonight and let you know when I find some clues.”“Okay. Thank you for your trouble.”She gave him a nod to express her gratitude. On the way home, the two children fell asleep in the backseat. From the rearview mirror, Victor noticed that Chloe looked trouble
There was dead silence in the conference room. Maddie could barely stand, holding the corner of the table and trembling. She was overwhelmed with shame and rage, wishing to have Chloe murdered. She couldn’t believe that Chloe had filmed these unpleasant scenes and also showed them to Zayn. Chloe used such a trick to threaten her, ruining her only chance to be together with Zayn. “So, do you read or not?” After a long moment, Maddie gritted her teeth, “I’ll read it.” Before leaving the conference room, Chloe unplugged the USB flash drive and brushed it off, “Besides, please let the Twilight Media and also your internet water armies delete all those nonsensical remarks from the internet. Otherwise, you bear your consequences.” &nbs
Surrogate 144 “This one.” David took a look around and pointed at the largest piece at the center, “I’ll take that one.” One could tell from the expression of the onlooking shop workers, that the piece was pricey. The shop owner was sophisticated enough to stay calm and asked, “Do you have any specific inquiries? Or you can give us your design if you have one.” “Not much, just one thing. It has to be special and match the vibe.” “What kind of vibe?” A worker asked cautiously. Closing his eyes, David pondered for a while and said, “Hot and spicy.” The worker twitched the corner of her mouth and looked at Kelvin as if asking for help. Frowning, Kelvin stepped sideways and put on an aloof look. &
“Listen up everyone, the president of LG Travel Agency is going to inspect our hotel this afternoon. Make sure nothing goes wrong even the tiniest details, got it?” “Got it.” Chloe just finished her all-hands meeting in the meeting room at Grandex Hotel. The headquarters took up a long-term partnership with a prestigious travel agency LG, everything else was done, what was left was the on-site inspection. The agency chose Chloe’s hotel for the inspection. As soon as the inspection passed, the contract of long-term partnership would be signed. After that, all LG Agency’s customers traveling to East China would be arranged to stay at Grandex Hotel. In the afternoon, under the scorching sun, the management team of the hotel stood at the doorway waiting for the inspection team. &nb
David instantly shut his mouth. His voice abruptly stopped. Chloe looked back at David and her face did not look good. They were even childhood friends. Claire was livid. “You surprisingly really know. Continue saying.” Looking at the situation, if David did not say everything honestly, he would be blamed together with Kelvin. After weighing the pros and cons, David chose to temporarily switch sides. “Davina is the English name. Her name is Addison Ramirez. The Ramirez family, my family, and the Clifford family have been friends for generations. I, Kelvin, her eldest brother and, her second eldest brother are similar in age so we often play together as a child. But Kelvin is more withdrawn and he doesn’t love to bother us. Addison is young and we don’t love to take
After tossing and turning all night, Chloe woke up at dawn the next morning. On the sofa, David was woken up by a rustling sound. He sleepily took his watch from the coffee table. “It’s only five o’clock, so early?” Chloe took her bag and prepared to go out. She looked so calm as if nothing had happened last night. “I’m going to work early. By the way, you can sleep in the guest room now.” David nodded dazedly and went to the bedroom while hugging his pillow. But when he turned, he went in the wrong direction and had entered the master bedroom. Chloe did not call him and just secretly smiled. Then, she left Claire’s house. Kelvin’s matter indeed dealt a big blow to her but she still had to continue working. She still had to plan the matter of letting her son return
