Chapter 250
Keira’s card went through, and the cashier handed it back to her with a smile.
Keira was stoked inside. Success!
After paying, Keira went over to Chloe, saying, “I’m done. Actually, you don’t have to buy anything! I
wanted to buy these gifts for my family because they’ve been good to me all these years, and it’s my
way of showing my gratitude. I never intended to compete with you or show off my wealth, especially
since I know your current situation…
She finished with a gentle smile, seemingly trying to save Chloe’s face, or was she trying to make
Chloe admit defeat?
ང ཧ
And emphasizing Chloe’s current situation!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhat was that situation?
Everyone thought Chloe was the down–and–out heiress who’d been kicked out of her family and was
now willing to be with any man who’d offer her money.
Sure enough, after Keira’s words, people’s disdainful looks at Chloe intensified.
Chloe glanced coldly at the card in Keira’s hand, a mocking smile tugging at her lips, “Seems like
you’ve got quite some secret stash, huh? Wasn’t Pulse Entertainment having financial issues? I think
20 million should help a bit! Instead of giving these trinkets to Carolina Petry, she’d probably be happier
if you just gave her the money directly!”
Keira’s expression changed.
Damn it!
She was so focused on showing off to Chloe that she hadn’t considered that.
So Chloe had been waiting for her here all along, just to expose her secret stash to Granny Carolina?
“Business is business, and I’m just me. I’m using my own money to show my gratitude, and I think
Granny Carolina would be happy.”
Chloe raised an eyebrow, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
“Do as you please.”
Keira looked at her, thought for a moment, and suddenly smirked coldly.
“Why don’t you just go home? Your family still cares about you. Dad’s a softie; if you go back and say
some nice things, he’ll be easy to talk to. Tell you what, I just bought a pair of gold rings. I’ll give them
to you, and you can give them to Mom and Dad in your name. What do you think? I believe they’ll be
thrilled!”
As Chloe looked at the triumphant and provocative gleam in Keira’s eyes, a cold glint flashed in her
own.
Still, she reached out and took the rings.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe crowd’s disdainful murmurs started.
Moments later, Chloe turned to the store manager and asked, “What’s the meaning of these rings?”
“Unique, as in, the one and only love for life.”
Chloe nodded and smiled at Keira, saying, “You heard that, right? ‘My one and only love for. life.’
Everyone knows your mom was a homewrecker, so giving her these rings would just be a slap in her
face, right?”
Keira’s face turned ugly as she glared at Chloe angrily.
“Why are you staring at me like that? Did I say something wrong? You wanted me to give these rings to
your mom in my name just to show off that she successfully became a mistress, right?”
“Chloe, enough! Are you ever going to let it go? Keira was just trying to be nice, and here you are,
always harping on the mistress‘ thing. Do you find it amusing?”
