Chapter 152
–
Someone at Sawle Group Hotel was basking in the luminous moment of being surrounded by stars.
Meanwhile, Chloe was driving a sports car alone, enjoying the cool night breeze as she drove on Morning Moon Bay’s public
road.
In the car, there was a night Empress chant – “The flame of revenge burned in my heart.” She was in a good mood as she followed the high-pitched voice while driving.
At this time, Riley called.
“Second brother – Chloe called out softly and tenderly
“Aiyo! Your second brother’s bones are going to be soft. I really want to record it and send it to Fourth Brother. It makes him so jealous that his eyes are burning with anger and his face is completely pale. Haha!” Riley’s voice was full of joy. The happiness of a man was so simple.
“Second brother, you called me. It seems that everything has been arranged properly?” Chloe asked.
“Yes, everything has been arranged. Big brother has also got everything ready.”
“Your big brother and I are always this reliable. You can rest assured.” Riley’s tone was full of
arrogance.
“I was on my way to visit Grandpa. I heard that tonight, all of Sawle Group’s people were dragged to Grace’s birthday banquet. Grandpa was the only one who didn’t go.”
“I know that Grandpa actually likes to be lively. Usually, he doesn’t say that he doesn’t want to cause trouble for everyone, but he is actually afraid of loneliness the most. Grandpa dotes on me so much. At this time, I should be by his side.”
When mentioning Grandpa, Chloe’s eyes were always gentle and warm, and she couldn’t help but feel sad for Grandpa.
In the past, when she was still Joseph’s wife, she had to accompany Grandpa when she had nothing to do. She would accompany Grandpa to chat, write, review, sing songs for Grandpa, and make an appointment to take a walk by the sea.
One day, on Valentine’s Day, Medo had the biggest winter snow of that year.
Chloe came to her grandfather’s house in the snow with the snacks she had personally made.
She clearly remembered that her grandfather was shocked when he saw her face and the tip of her nose turn red from the cold
“Raya, today is Valentine’s Day! Why didn’t you spend your days with Joseph? Why did you come to find me, this old man?”
At that time, she was still trying to find a reason for Joseph. She restrained a wisp of sorrow and forced a smile.
“Joseph is the president of the group, and he has no time to spare; he’s busy every day. The president is not taking a break even on Valentine’s Day.”
“Moreover… Joseph has prepared a gift for me. As long as he is considerate, it will be fine.”
“Alas, girl, you are too soft and kind. You have to be fierce, otherwise you can’t handle that stubborn donkey Joseph!”
“Your grandfather had the same temper as Joseph when I was young Later, your grandmother either punished me by letting me kneel on the washboard or pinching my thigh. Now, you know, she tamed me to be honest.”
Chloe just chuckled.
The two of them admired the snow for a while. Rory suddenly asked,
“Girl, are you afraid of the cold?”
“No!”
“Then let’s go see your Grandma.”
“Tll go and sweep the snow for your Grandma. She’s afraid of the cold.”
“Grandpa! I’m here!”
Just like before, just as Chloe entered the door, her clear and melodious voice reached every corner of the living room.
“Sister-in-law!”
What responded to her was a voice that was as sweet and melodious as a
d’s. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
Then, Annie pushed the wheelchair and walked out with Rory.
“Annie You’re here tool”
When Chloe saw Annie’s sister, she was even happier. She quickly ran over and hugged Annie’s thin and petite body tightly
in her arms.
Annie responded to Chloe’s hug. She touched her thin back with her hands and blinked her big eyes, which were as cute as black grapes. “Sister-in-law, you are so thin! You were not so thin before. Haven’t you had a good meal recently?”
“Yes, I ate until I was full,” Chloe replied with a smile,
She had indeed become much younger recently. Because she was too tired from work, she had a lot of things to do. Sometimes, she would eat lunch and breakfast together. She had no time to eat dinner.
“Raya, come over and let grandpa see you!”
When Rory saw Chloe, he was so happy that he couldn’t close his mouth. He couldn’t bear to change his words, so he still called her Raya as before.
Chloe didn’t mind, because now that things had come to this, she no longer had any nostalgia for Joseph.
Therefore, the name “Raya” was not something that couldn’t be let go of. As long as Grandpa was happy, she didn’t care
about it.
“Grandpa, your complexion is a bit bad. Have you not rested well recently?” Chloe knelt down on one knee beside the wheelchair, raising her bright and beautiful face to look at Rory with a worried
expression.
“Sigh, my old illness is acting up. It’s not a big problem though.” Instead. Rory comforted her by touching the top of her head. His face which was full of vicissitudes was suffused with an unhealthy grayish-white color.
Chloe’s heart immediately tightened. She hurriedly held her grandfather’s left hand and pressed three fingers on his right hand to check the old man’s pulse.
After a while, she said seriously, “Grandpa, I will take time to do acupuncture for you every week. I will also give you medicine. You must not be lazy. I will let Uncle Webb urge you to take medicine.”
“Raya, you are no longer the same as before. You are the daughter of Thorp Group. Stefan dotes on you very much. How can I let you do this? And I heard from Joseph that you are still managing Thorp Group’s hotel?”
“How hard is it? Don’t go back and forth. It’s enough for me to have Webb to take care of me.” Rory naturally wanted to see her often, but at the same time, he felt sorry for her. He was afraid that she would be too tired.
Chloe was slightly stunned. She did not expect that Joseph would actually talk about her with his grandfather in private.
In the past, didn’t he ignore her all year long and treat her as a potted plant?
Now that they divorced, he was talking about her. What was wrong with him?
“I am not your granddaughter!”
Chloe raised her eyebrows and slapped her thigh. “My legs are on my body. I want to go wherever I want to go and what I want to do. Stefan doesn’t care. Humph!”
Her fierce and cute appearance made her grandfather and Annie laugh.
At this time, the phone vibrated.
Chloe looked down at the screen and saw a message from Jordan.
[Miss, everything is ready. I will wait for your instructions.]

In the banquet hall, the gorgeous dance stage was full of flowers.
The lights under the stage gradually dimmed, but the lights on the stage were dazzling.
At this moment, Joseph and Vincent arrived at the venue.
Even if they were low-key enough, they were still like the bright sunlight that split the clouds, instantly becoming the focus of the audience.
The guests looked around Joseph and discussed in whispers.
“I really didn’t expect that Mr. Sawle, who has always been a proud and noble person, would actually be willing to attend the Brown family’s birthday banquet. That woman’s face is really big.”
“Do you think this is a simple birthday banquet? Hmph, naive! Didn’t you see that? Miss Brown’s parents and the Sawle couple are also here. This is under the guise of the birthday banquet to announce more important news.
“Oh, what’s going on? It seems that I came right this time? Is there a big show to watch?”
“Tsk tsk… There is no harm without comparison. Sawle family and I are considered close. When Mr. Sawle first got married, I heard that it was a hidden marriage. There wasn’t even a wedding. That woman had been holding back and living with Mr. Sawle for three years.”
“But now, it seems like he is going all out for his girlfriend’s birthday, so one can only imagine what kind of grand/ celebration they might have for their wedding. If I were his ex-wife, I would be feeling quite overwhelmed by it all!”
The short hair flowed long, like meteorites falling from the sky, fiercely falling into Joseph’s chest, smashing his trembling heart into thousands of holes.
Before the divorce, he never felt sorry for Chloe.
Now that he was divorced, he seemed to be a sinner who was spat on by thousands of people. He had been ruthlessly and cruelly exposed in front of everyone.
“Joseph, are you alright? Why do you look so pale?” Vincent’s sword-like eyebrows slightly narrowed, and he gently poked him with his elbow.
“It’s fine.” Joseph took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down his fluctuating emotions.
At this moment, the first row of people sitting below the stage were Jake and Mr. Brown and Mrs. Brown, who looked as if the parents of both parties were attending the wedding.
At this time, the gorgeous lights changed and the pleasant music sounded.
Amidst the warm applause, Grace, adorned in a luxurious custom-made dress, dazzling diamond jewelry, and a shimmering silver evening gown that exposed her bare shoulders, strolled onto the stage with her aunt Aubree, graciously bowing to the guests and expressing her gratitude.
“Wow! Look! She is wearing a high-end dress designed by Ms. Rose!” Someone couldn’t help but exclaim.
“So beautiful… It is just a birthday banquet, and she can borrow a dress worth 1 million? Sawle Group really dotes on her!”
Grace heard the sighs of the audience, enjoying the bright moment of flowers and applause, and her heart was so beautiful that it felt like she was floating in the air!
The only pity was that Joseph did not stand side by side with her.
However, the flaw did not cover the jade.
Tonight, she was the insufferably arrogant, high and mighty Princess!
“I’m so grateful to all of you for taking the time out of your hectic schedules to join us for my niece Grace’s birthday banquet. Having the opportunity to share this special moment with all of you will be a memory that Grace will cherish for a -lifetime.”
As she spoke, Aubree held Grace’s hand and tenderly stroked it. Her eyes, brimming with love, made her look not like her aunt, but her own mother. “What’s more, I have something else of great importance to tell everyone.”
The audience suddenly fell silent.
Jake smiled from beginning to end, his expression clusive, and Mr. Brown and his wife’s eyes were already bursting with anticipation!
“Grace is about to officially get engaged to Joseph!”
