The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 943

Seeing Elizabeth's smile long gone and her domineering manner that made it impossible to say no, Katie started to feel a bit nervous.

She was kicking herself for saying the wrong thing.

"Elizabeth, my embroidery skills have gotten better, and I will work with you to promote embroidery. As for Chloe, if she's not into it, let's not force her." Katie said.

Elizabeth put away her phone and shook her head, "No, you two are different. The more people learn embroidery, the more opportunities there are. She must learn!"

Whenever it came to embroidery, Elizabeth was never quite at ease – it was a regret that had always plagued her.

Such a beautiful art form, once so glorious, why was it now so dismal? Ever since she could remember, her mother had always been doing her utmost to promote embroidery.

The Norwood family, generation after generation, were masters of embroidery. Yet they had to watch as this art form slowly declined.

Only those who had experienced the pinnacle could understand the kind of despair that came from being forgotten. From the top of the world to the depths of the abyss.

She would never forget the responsibility and mission her parents had constantly reminded her of until their dying days, and their regretful departure. Even now, despite her greatest efforts, she couldn't revive the glory of embroidery. In the end, she even started forcing every girl around her, including Nathan, to learn embroidery.

How could she possibly let her daughter-in-law off the hook?

"But embroidery requires patience and time. Chloe might be really busy." Katie said.

"No matter how busy she is, she needs to prioritize. Besides Elizabeth’s love for Royce, Damon, and Nathan, what she value most is promoting embroidery. As her daughter-in-law, this should not be put on the back burner, right?" Wendy said.

Wendy, having freshened up her makeup in the restroom, came straight to the dining room and happened to overhear Elizabeth and Katie discussing embroidery. Clearly, Katie had put her foot in her mouth this time.

Elizabeth was very pleased with Chloe as a daughter-in-law, and she had been unable to find a chance to tarnish Chloe's image in front of her.

This time, Katie's words might have given her an opportunity.

Saying so, she turned her gaze directly to Chloe who was sitting there.

Chloe gave a slight smile, "Embroidery really isn't my thing."

Elizabeth frowned and looked up at Chloe.

Chloe gave an apologetic smile, "I'm sorry, mom. Katie has tried to teach me, but I just can't grasp it."

"You're so smart, how could you possibly not grasp it? The key question is, are you willing to learn." At these words, Elizabeth's expression darkened.

This time, Wendy's words had hit a nerve. She knew Chloe was smart and if she was willing to learn, she would definitely be able to. But Chloe would rather call herself 'stupid' than learn embroidery.

Embroidery was something she held in extremely high regard. She was very sensitive about it and would not tolerate Chloe treating it in such a dismissive manner, no matter how satisfied she was with her.

Chloe's expression also became cold.

Chloe stood aside, giving a cold laugh.

Katie, anxious, went up to Chloe and whispered, "I'm sorry, Chloe, I didn't mean to."

Chloe smiled lightly, "It's okay."

"But Elizabeth seems really mad at you." Katie said.

Katie looked apologetic, and Chloe didn't say anything, just quietly looked at her. She then gave a light laugh, "This is something I can't help. I really can't learn embroidery ."

Katie paused for a moment, "Actually, Chloe, as long as you pretend to be willing to learn, she won't give you a hard time."

Chloe laughed, "I don't want to waste my time pretending. If I decide to do something, I don't want to waste a single second."

After saying this, she walked to the bar and ordered a cup of water.

Katie watched Chloe's stubborn figure, and wanted to catch up to say something. But halfway there, her wrist was grabbed by Miles, "No point in wasting your breath, if she's made up her mind, there's hardly anyone who can talk her out of it."

"But doing so, Elizabeth might have a bone to pick with her, and that definitely ain't good." Katie said.

Miles snickered to himself, then turned to look at the back of the woman who was drinking water. He turned his head back to Katie, and with a smile, said, "You think she doesn't know right from wrong?"
