Chapter 1572
What was the saying? Penny wise and pound foolish, that was him. After living for decades and with one foot
already in the grave, he had made such an unseemly scene.
“You think you’re something, don’t you? You look pretty impressive now, but you think the Harpers, after all they’ve
done wrong, would just roll over and accept you into their family because you’re some kind of princess? Who’s
responsible for turning everything into this mess? It was me. It was me who made this happen, you wouldn’t be
marrying into the Harper family if it wasn’t for me”
Listening to Wendy’s unabashed confession and her foul words, Chloe simply responded with a faint smile. She
listened to Wendy’s tirade, then nodded her head with a smile
“Yes, Wendy, you’re quite formidable, ruining my perfect marriage arrangement? You’re right, it was all because of
you that I had no choice but to take the Alonso family as my wedding gifts.”
She spoke lightly and calmly, with a sweet and gentle smile, but in just a few words, she delivered a heavy blow to
Wendy. This impact also extended to Cole and Grace, who were standing nearby with faces ashen. Chloe’s words
were like a lightning bolt striking into their minds. If Wendy had not been so stubborn and obsessed with Damon,
Presley wouldn’t have opposed Damon and Chloe’s marriage c2
the Alonso family wouldn’t even be in this situation now
If they’d been able to marry on sche
So what did Wendy have to gloat
Wendy’s face twitched at Chloe’s
It was
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtobsession with the Harpers that had driven Chloe to vow to take control of the Alonso family
for a moment before her features contorted into an unsightly expression.
Again and again.
No matter what she said or did, she could never gain an upper hand over Chloe. Everything she did only served to
help Chloe rise higher Every word she said was thrown back at her by Chloe, inflicting a thousand times more pain.
She bit her lip so hard that the corner of her mouth was bleeding a bright, eye–catching red
Admitting defeat to Chloe? Impossible. How could she accept it?
After fighting against Chloe for so long, from initially having the upper hand to ending up with nothing, how could
she accept it?
Some may pity the villain in the end, but to Chloe, Wendy wasn’t worth an ounce of sympathy.
This wasn’t some chicken–and–egg paradox. Wendy started all of this, she was the one who crossed Chloe’s line
time and time again. Even though she was now in a state of madness, disability, hysteria, and utter disarray, Chloe
still stared at her with a coldness that seemed devoid of any emotion. “I’m now exercising my rights as the majority
shareholder of Alonso Corporation to revoke all positions and powers of Cole and Wendy in the corporation. Also,
Wendy is not allowed to set foot in Alonso Corporation without permission.”
At these words, Cole immediately retorted, “On what grounds are you revoking my position and rights, I…”
“Mr. Alonso, since you don’t own any shares, why should I grant you any position or rights?”
Cole was stunned into silence, his face filled with despair. “Chloe, you can’t..you can’t… the Alonso family is
everything to me.”
Chloe gave a cold laugh, “Exactly because it’s everything to you, that’s why I need to take it back. Mr. Alonso, you
should take some time to think about your wife who died of difficult birth, and your own daughter who you’ve
ignored since she lost her mother, and whom you’ve tried to use and even sell”
Cole stiffened at her words, his gaze slowly turning to Phoebe, who was still sitting in her seat. Her face was filled
with mockery, but more than that, there was sadness. Chloe’s words clearly spelled out the treatment she had
received in the Alonso family over the past two decades. Though she was his biological daughter, she had ended up
being sold.
First, to help Wendy get the company shares, and when that failed, for a whopping three billion dollars.
Three billion, certainly a considerable amount So it turned out that she, Phoebe, could be worth so much.
Cole’s mouth opened and closed, but he couldn’t utter a single word.
Grace had already been terrified, her legs turning to jelly The past events had been scrutinized and discussed, and
the company was lost. All those years of hard work, she thought she was going to get everything the Alonso family,
innumerable riches, and power. But along the way, she ended up with nothing
So what was the point of her painstakingly climbing to Ms Grace’s position?
Seeing this, Chloe knew that tonight’s drama had to come to an end “Thank you all for attending this banquet
tonight, and please forgive any disturbances i, on behalf of the Alonso family promise you all that this project will
meet everyone’s expectations, and the Alonso family will ensure your satisfaction at any cost And with that,
tonight’s Alonso Corporations business banquet comes to an end.”
“What do you mean it’s over? What do you mean by representing the Alonso family? Who are you to represent my
family On what grounds are you revoking my position and powers?! You’re not qualified! Chloe, my family isn’t
yours to control The Alonso family is mine. How can you take what’s mine and speak for me?! Shameless”
Wendy’s shriek echoed in the air as she clawed at the edge of the balcony, straining to reach Chloe. Her coarse
words and frantic demeanor were a far cry from the refined lady of the Alonso family she once was

Nate, who had been standing in the corner, suddenly snapped to attention and quickly strode over. “Sir!”

Damon said nothing, just leveled Nate with an icy stare that sent a shiver down his spine. With a gesture from Nate,
two burly men in black suits emerged from the shadows, grabbing the hysterical Wendy by each arm.
“What are you doing?!” Wendy shrieked, “Let me go! How dare you treat me like this? I am the heiress of the
Alonso family, the future head of the family…”
A sharp slap cut off her rant, the sound echoing in the room. Wendy’s hysteria suddenly ceased. Her cheek stung
with a fiery pain, and she turned her bruised face to glare menacingly at the people in front of her.
“You damn wretch! I’m your sister‘ Instead of helping me, you hit me? You ungrateful snake!”
Phoebe trembled with rage, “What right do you have to claim to be my sister, Wendy? How can you claim that
others have stolen from you? The Alonso family, it was never yours to begin with.
“It was you, you are the real plunderers, the usurpers. Don’t forget how your mother earned her title, and don’t
forget how you became the heiress
of the Alonso family. For material possessions, you and your mother stooped to abhorrent lows, committing heinous
acts. You all deserve this because, in reality, you were all trash from the start.”
“You’re talking nonsense.” Wendy spat, “You gave away your shares and handed over the company. Phoebe, you’re
a fool You’re mad”
