Chapter 619
When Chloe arrived at the Summers‘ house, it was already past seven.
The living room of the Summers‘ house was brightly lit. Everyone, except Old Mr. Summers, was sitting on the sofa,
looking a bit off. They had been waiting for Chloe for over two hours, not even having dinner. Chloe was over two
hours late!
They knew Chloe did this on purpose, but they were still pissed off.
“Keira, go get your grandpa!”
Ignoring them, Chloe walked to the sofa and sat down, placing her handbag aside and crossing her legs, her cold

“Shall we get straight to business? Have you guys had dinner?” Chloe asked.
Viviana hurriedly responded with a gentle smile, “Not yet, we knew you were coming back, so naturally, we were
waiting to eat with you.” Chloe nodded and replied with a faint smile, “Oh, I
see
But I have already eaten on my way here.”
Viviana’s face immediately changed; seeing Chloe’s smile, she felt like Chloe was gloating and being sarcastic.
Chloe was clearly making them starve on purpose!
Viviana was biting her teeth in anger, but she still kept her cool, just smiling awkwardly. Then she glanced at
Carolina and Nick. Though she didn’t say anything, she acted like she was treated with injustice.
Viviana knew that being a stepmother wasn’t a walk in the park. Even though she despised Chloe, she couldn’t
confront her directly. Her goal was to make Carolina and Nick hate Chloe even more.
Luckily, Chloe had always had a bad relationship with the family, which saved her a lot of trouble.
Indeed, the faces of Carolina and Nick became even grimmer.
“If you weren’t planning on eating at home, why didn’t you tell us in advance? You were over two hours late. What
were you thinking?” Viviana said. Chloe glanced coldly at Viviana and said, “How would I know you guys would wait
for me to eat?”
“If it wasn’t for Keira and her mom insisting on waiting for you, we would have already eaten!” Nick was a bit
tongue–tied. Over the years, Chloe rarely _came home, and having meals with her was always uncomfortable.
Moreover, at home, everyone except Keira was her elder. It wouldn’t be right to make the whole family wait for her

When she heard that Viviana and Keira insisted on waiting for her to eat, Chloe smiled slightly and gave Viviana a
meaningful glance, “Really? How thoughtful of you.”
Viviana looked at her in surprise, taken aback by her sudden gentleness, “Not at all, we are family after all.”
Family…
Chloe lowered her head, gently smoothing out her skirt, but she didn’t say anything, just smiled. What an irony.
Just then, Keira led Jonah in from the porch of the backyard.
Chloe stood up and greeted Jonah with indifference. Jonah looked at her seriously and then sat down on the sofa, it
was the head of the family’s seat. Jonah looked serious, sitting upright, emanating the aura of the head of the
family.
