Chapter 69 Michael Showed Up
Brian was smooth with his words. He didn't put Chloe in the spotlight and still managed to boost his own
standing. If his kid's friends could borrow paintings from Grant, wouldn't he be one proud dad? Everyone was
really into Grant's art collection. They all waited eagerly at the exhibit, hoping to catch a glimpse of the famous
paintings.
A few minutes later, a business car pulled up outside. The staff carefully unloaded the paintings. Soon enough,
the paintings were inside. Everyone was mesmerized by the artwork.
Just then, a flashy sports car screeched to a stop, and Michael made a grand entrance at the Gibson family art
show. Already a star with loads of charisma, Michael, with his delicate makeup on, instantly grabbed everyone's
attention. "Michael, Michael actually came." Zara, standing next to Chloe, was so shocked her jaw nearly hit the
floor. She covered her mouth, staring at the star she had admired for so long.
This was the guy she adored. Handsome, virtuous, and super talented-Michael was everything to her. Seeing him
in person, Zara could barely hold it together and looked like she might cry.
Seeing her best friend so starstruck, Chloe just shook her head, amused.
Michael scanned the room and then shouted angrily, "Who is it? Who's got the nerve to say the Martin Family
can't do anything in Sovereign City? Con, step up! Letsee how tough they are. | didn't know Sovereign
City belonged to them now."
Michael's outburst left everyone in stunned silence. They all looked at him, confused.
Nolan, who was arranging his paintings, saw Michael's anger and knew something was up. Michael must be here
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtto defend that girl, Chloe. Not only had he said Chloe couldn't do anything in Sovereign City, but he also
demanded she kneel and apologize. If Michael found out, wouldn't he flip out?
No way, he had to get out of there!
Nolan quickly packed his stuff and bolted before Michael could spot him.
Brian stepped up to talk to Michael, "Mr. Michael Martin, I'm sorry for the earlier misunderstanding. It was my
fault Chloe was wronged, but it's all sorted now-the bullies ran off and learned their lesson. It's an honor to have
you at our art show, and a big thanks to Mr. Grant Martin for lending us a few paintings."
Seizing the moment, Brian skillfully used Michael's fame. Being able to chat with a celebrity like Michael meant
Brian had sserious connections in Sovereign City. After all, not everyone could hang with the Martin Family.
Chloe was taken aback by Michael's tic entrance. Sure, he was a famous star, but he sounded more like a
mob boss.
"See, that's your idol. Doesn't look someone worthy of your worship, if you want my opinion," Chloe nudged
Zara, pointing at Michael. She figured Michael's outburst might've knocked him down a peg in Zara's eyes,
making her realize her idol wasn't all that.
But boy, was she wrong about Zara's obsession with Michael.
Zara stared dreamily at Michael and murmured, "He's... so handsome."
Chloe was at a loss for words.
Zara pushed Chloe aside, "Move, don't block my view of my handsguy. The way he just told everyone off
was so cool! If he could protectlike that, I'd die happy."
If this were a fan meet-and-greet, Chloe was sure Zara would be the first to rush the stage. She just couldn't get
why people were so obsessed with celebrities when they were just regular folks too.
Michael brushed off Brian's small talk and made a beeline for Chloe, ignoring Zara's intense gaze. He zeroed in
on Chloe. "Chloe, Grant calledand said you were bullied. Are you okay? Did anything happen?"
Even though Michael had no interest in marrying Chloe or any arranged marriage, he still saw her as part of the
Martin family. And the Martins had one rule: they protected their own. He could mess with Chloe, and so could
Liam, but if anyone else tried, Michael would make them pay.
Chloe shook her head. "Nah, who'd dare mess with someone like me? If anyone tries, | usually give it right back
to them."
