The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride novel Chapter 173

Chapter 173 

She was dressed in high–end fashion, the simplest outfit for professional women. 

Her tall and slender figure perfectly supported that elegant look, showing off a strong vibe. 

Her pretty face was cold, her bright eyes scanning the room with a touch of indifference. 

She walked steadily in her white high heels, her curly hair naturally hanging behind her shoulders, swaying gently with her movements. 

Before anyone could react, Carolina strode up to her and scolded her directly. 

“Why are you so late?” 

Chloe looked at her coldly, her tone indifferent and distant. 

I’m already doing you a favor by showing up, Carolina.” 

Carolina’s look instantly sharpened. 

“What kind of attitude is that?” 

Chloe blinked slowly and said, “What do you think…my attitude towards you should be?” 

Carolina’s eyes widened, “Don’t forget, I am your elder.” 

Chloe scoffed. 

“If you hadn’t mentioned it, I would have forgotten.” 

Carolina could hear the sarcasm in Chloe’s words. 

“Are you blaming me for not caring enough about you all these years?” 

Not enough? 

Chloe just sneered in her heart. Carolina was not even worthy of this word. 

“Not enough” at least meant that she did once care a little. 

And Carolina, in all these years, had she cared at all? 

Chloe didn’t answer. 

She had a sarcastic smile on her face, and though she didn’t say anything else, Carolina felt uncomfortable. 

“Since you’re here, you should know what you need to do tonight!” 

Chloe snorted, “Yeah, I know.” 

Her gaze turned to the stage in front of her. 

The spotlight was on. 

And, at a glance, there were a few faces she was somewhat familiar with. 

If she remembered correctly, they were journalists from well–known media companies. 

It looked like tonight, at this anniversary party, she, Chloe, was the absolute heroine. 

Good for her, to finally get some attention in the Summers family’s company! 

Chloe took a deep breath, feeling a mix of sadness and irony. 

She walked forward with a cold face and determined steps. 

Everyone looked at her curiously, but because of her aura, they all stepped aside for her. 

“Sis…“Keira approached, her face full of deep guilt and vulnerability, but Chloe saw the triumph in her eyes. 

Chloe just glanced at her coldly and then walked past her without acknowledging her. 

“Chloe…“Lance suddenly blocked her way, looking at her with a complicated expression, “You don’t have to take responsibility for this, Chloe. I’ll explain everything straight.” 

Chloe stopped, turned her head slightly to look at Lance, and then gave a faint smile.
