Chapter 269: Korbin, Betty, and Denise were about to leave when Chloe's words brought them to a halt. Betty looked at Chloe, her tone cautious as she asked, "You are here to see us, madam?" "Yes," Chloe nodded Betty, perplexed, exchanged glances with Korbin and Denise before turning back to Chloe. "Madam, what can we do for you?" Chloe's response was direct. "I'm here to inform you that I intend to accuse you of fraud." The revelation startled Korbin and Betty, while Denise visibly paled. Then, Betty, her voice trembling, said, "Madam, we are law-abiding citizens. We've never engaged in fraudulent activities, nor have we ever crossed paths with you. How could we deceive you?"
