The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 737

"Too idealistic, eager for quick success and instant benefit, too stubborn, aren't these reasons enough?"

Kendal tried to read Chloe's expression, but she consciously hid it. He couldn't see it clearly.

"What are you talking about? If everyone in business was as cautious as you, there would be no point in doing business! If you have ulterior motives, stop beating around the bush!"

Carolina sharply reprimanded, her disgust towards Chloe completely unhidden. Chloe didn't show too much emotion, just sipped her water quietly.

"....Chloe is right. Let's wait until after the award ceremony to decide."

Kendal pondered for a while and finally drew this conclusion.

"Grandpa!" Amelia exclaimed, "How can you listen to her! Her boyfriend has already dumped her, so she's just trying to get back at us!"

"Shut up!" Kendal turned his gaze to Amelia, "Do you think you haven't embarrassed yourself enough? Think before you speak! You've caused so much trouble for the family! If I were you, I'd tread carefully, but you, you show your true colors no matter where you are!"

Though Kendal was always authoritative, he seldom lost his temper. Now he was furious, a sight few had seen.

Amelia was so frightened that she shrank back. Her eyes instantly turned red.

"Are you disgusted with me? I'm a victim too..."

"What are you doing? Amelia is your granddaughter too. She’s already upset, do you want to keep hurting her..."

Amelia's mother couldn't bear it and spoke up.

Kendal’s face turned serious, "She brought it on herself. If they hadn't thought of hurting others first, how would this have happened?!"

The word "they" made Keira tense up suddenly. She looked at Amelia nervously. She was afraid Amelia would tell Kendal about what happened at the school celebration. If Kendal had definite evidence that she was involved in the plan, she wouldn't have a good time in the Olson family...

"Grandpa..." Lance suddenly spoke up, "Let's not dwell on the past. About what we just discussed, I also think it's better to start producing Keira's work ahead of time. Even if Keira doesn't win the championship this time, her work has already received high praise from the international jury...What do you think?"

Perhaps considering Chloe's presence, Lance's words were both assertive and humble.

He really stood out. Compared to the current family members, Lance's demeanor and words were the most steady and persuasive.

The difference between him and the others was easily noticeable.

Kendal looked at him with satisfaction and relief.

However, Chloe's suggestion...

He didn't believe Chloe would take revenge on him. Even if she had some dissatisfaction with the Olson family, she wouldn't say it directly. He knew that this time, Chloe's suggestion was purely professional.

When Kendal stared at her, Chloe just smiled casually.

"You have the ability, believe in yourself!"

Chloe put her cup back on the coffee table, stood up and said,

"The ceremony is over, if there's nothing else, I'll leave first."

As she spoke, she headed towards the door. Lance immediately stood up, following Chloe out. Keira followed closely, as if worried about Lance and Chloe having further interactions.

Amelia also followed them out.

When a guest leaves, people like Lauretta usually had to get up and see them off. So, everyone moved towards the door.

"Chloe, you didn't drive, did you? I'll give you a lift..."

"Lance..." Keira chased after them.

"Don't sweat it! She has so many friends, a single phone call and someone would come and pick her up, right?" Carolina took a deep breath, "We have no idea who she hangs out with; the Olson family isn't a place they can just waltz in and out of. We also don't know who she's hobnobbing with every day. Since we came together, let's leave together, and let the driver take you home."

Chloe frowned, "Amelia has a sharp tongue, and she's much younger than you. You just let her rudeness slide, do you? Aren't you afraid of getting embarrssed?"

Carolina felt like she was about to faint, in front of so many people. To be disrespected by her own granddaughter and made to feel so awkward in front of the Olson family, she was fuming with anger.
