A Billion-Rich Woman Was Chased

Chapter 49

That night, the three siblings returned to Sea Gate from Medo.

The two cities were not far apart, and it took less than two hours to walk on the highway.

Medo was the economic center of the country, with excellent resources and a bright future, a place that every soldier must fight for.

But Sea Gate was different. Sea Gate had been the territory of only one family for a hundred years – Thorp family.

Thorp Group’s industry supported a third of Sea Gate’s population. They were called Sea Gate’s “Emperor“. It could be said that without Thorp Group, Sea Gate was just an ordinary second–tier city. It was impossible for the economic development to be so fast.

The three siblings came to the antique Fallen Star House.

“Ah! Young Mistress! When did you come back?”

The old man in armor who had come to welcome them was the manager here, Master Sharp.

He was the youngest son of Stefan’s nanny. He had been playing with Stefan since childhood, and their relationship was so good that it could. not be separated.

Old Sharp did not have much ambition. Even though Stefan’s driver had been listening to Stefan’s calls all these years and bought three suites from Medo, he was not interested in the official career. He did not marry, and he did not have children. He was alone in the Fallen Star House and accompanied jade all day long. We sat and watched the flowing clouds and falling flowers.

“Uncle Sharp, how are you recently? Do your legs still hurt in rainy days? Are you better at breathing? How about the medicine I asked Jordan to send you a while ago?”

Chloe’s eyes were curved, and she held Old Sharp’s arm intimately. “Good, good, all good… But even a thousand good things are not as good as you coming back!” Old Sharp was so happy that his tears blurred. “Actually, I came here this time because I have something to ask you…” Chloe sighed faintly and got straight to the point, “I have a good friend who gave me a gift that I broke.”

“I was afraid that he would be sad if he found out, so I wanted to… make an identical one.”

“What is it?”

Chloe pursed her red lips and carefully took out a vintage jewelry bag. She took out the jade bracelet fragment from it.

“Aiya!” Old Sharp exclaimed, lamenting the broken jade. “This is such high–quality material – it’s a once–in–a–thousand chance! What a shame!”

“I’m aware that this material is rare and won’t be available in a century, but I’m still keen to give it a go. How many materials have you not explored yet?” Chloe enquired.

“More than five hundred.”

“I’ll want it all tonight.” Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

“Pfft!” Old Sharp almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

Oscar coughed awkwardly. Riley’s hand had already silently touched his phone, ready to call the emergency number at any time.

Little sister was always like this, using the most casual tone to speak the most shocking words.

“No, no, no! You are trying to empty my life!” Old Sharp was so anxious that he stamped his feet, which was exactly the same as Stefan.

“It’s not that exaggerated. Either way, you left the material for yourself to play with. It’s not like you want to sell it. I have already opened it. No matter how much loss…”

Chloe’s eyes welled up. Thinking her fourth brother had been disobedient, she decided to punish him, so she changed her words, “Put it on my fourth brother’s tab, just say it’s my orders, and make him pay double. After all, he’s got money and nowhere to spend it!”

Old Sharp covered his chest and leaned back with a broken heart.

Oscar and Riley quickly supported the old man.

Thorp Group had four gardens in Sea Gate, namely Falling Moon, Falling Cloud, Falling Mist, Falling Star.

Falling Star was naturally simple and the first place that the jade carving master Tade had taken a fancy to. As a result, Stefan had to pay a billion from his pocket to buy it over. Tade was so angry that he almost drove Old Sharp out of the sect. Who asked him to have a good relationship with Stefan?

Then, half a month later, it was Tade’s 60–year–old birthday. Stefan directly gave him the Falling Star as a birthday present, which resolved the misunderstanding. It turned out that the Falling Star Stefan had bought was originally planned as a gift to give him from the beginning. He just wanted to give the old man a surprise.

Now, Master Tade had already gone to the west. Old Sharp, as his last disciple, had inherited the Falling Star and maintained it until now.

Chloe followed Old Sharp to the warehouse to open the material. The two brothers sat in the front hall and drank tea.

“Chloe is too concerned about Sawle family. I am jealous.” Riley curled his lips in dissatisfaction.

“Sawle Group’s Old Master, Rory, is a highly respected senior and has always liked Chloe.”

“Chloe is someone who will return a single act of kindness with a flood of gratitude. She certainly wants to show her appreciation to Old Master Sawle for his kindness. I’m all for her doing that,” Oscar said, her voice soft and captivating.

“You support everything. I don’t believe that you will support her to be with Joseph again!”

“The reason is determined by the heavens. No one can change it. This is how Chloe is. The more the whole world objects to them being together, the more she wants to love a stunning world.” Oscar sighed.

“The heavens don’t have eyes. What mandarin duck book are you talking about! My sister is a noble person, and the son of the Prime Minister of the neighboring country doesn’t even put her in their eyes. She actually broke her heart for an illegitimate child!”

“But this is also good. After all, Joseph is already the best among dogs. In the future, when Chloe sees other male dogs, he should not be so easily deceived.”

At this time, Oscar’s phone vibrated on the table.

He glanced down and really couldn’t help but talk about Joseph’s name on the screen.

“Mr. Sawle.” Oscar coldly answered the call.

Riley furrowed his brows, his back leaving the back of the chair as he listened attentively.

“President Thorp, I’m looking for Raya. I have something to tell her.”

Joseph’s voice was low, with a hint of anxiety.

“Raya is not free right now.”

“Then when will she be free?”

“For you, she has no time at all.”

Oscar had always been calm and polite, but when it came to people, it was really hitting the nail on the head.

Riley clenched his fist excitedly, well said!

On the other side, Joseph’s handsome face was black, as if he had been bombarded by a missile.

First of all, since Raya has changed her number, it means that she does not want you to contact her. Even if you have not officially registered for a divorce, out of respect for women, you should not harass her again and again.

“Secondly, I already know what happened at the charity auction.”

Joseph’s dark pupils suddenly shrank, and his heart seemed to be covered with dense and thorny vines.

Riley shivered in his heart.

This was his big brother. His left hand was merciful, and his right hand was Shura. It was not that he was not angry, but most of the things in the world were not worth his anger, except for his family.

“About that…”

“I don’t know what your bottom line is, but you have already stepped on my bottom line.”

My bottom line, other than Raya, is still Raya.

This is the last time I pick up your call, Mr. Sawle. This is also the last time I remind you to take care of your fiancee and your family. Don’t look for trouble with Raya again.

Once again, take care of yourself.

As soon as the voice fell, Oscar decisively ended the call.

At this moment, Mazeland Manor.

Joseph stood in front of the window and stared at the long dark screen. The hand holding the phone slowly tightened, and his hard–pressed heart seemed to have been gripped by an invisible hand.

As he and Raya’s only contact person for the past few days, Oscar, was cut

off, an unprecedented feeling of emptiness filled his chest, and even a trace of panic could be seen.

This time, Raya might really disappear from his life completely.

He might never be able to find her again.

Joseph’s heart was in turmoil, and he fumbled out a cigarette box from the depths of the drawer. There were two cigarettes inside.

His fingertips.trembled as he took out a cigarette and held it between his thin lips. He lit it a few times before igniting it.

The orange light flickered, and Joseph found himself becoming more and more strange.

For the sake of the ex–wife he did not love at all, he quit his smoking addiction for five years and made a comeback.

***

In the early hours of the morning, in the large workshop of Falling Star. Chloe was all alone, wearing a black apron. She was busy in the pile of stones like a small snail, and her smooth and clean forehead was full of

fine sweat.

She had already opened hundreds of materials, processed and polished countless bracelets, and each one of them was sold for at least five digits, but in her eyes, it was worthless.

It did not look like it, it did not look like it at all!

None of them could compare to the bracelet that her grandfather had given her!

Chloe’s eyes were red. She bit her small white teeth and continued to polish the jade stone on the machine. Her delicate and white fingers were calluses. The wound on her palm was faintly painful, but she did not care at all.

She only wanted to make an identical bracelet, otherwise she would not have the face to see her grandfather.

At this time, there was a loud bang outside the warehouse, shaking the iron door.

However, Chloe was completely indifferent. His whole heart was focused on these stones that he was worried about.

Suddenly, the door was pushed open with a creak. A hurricane surged in like a tide, causing Chloe to narrow his eyes.

Under the thick night sky, a helicopter sat outside the door. The hatch slowly opened and heaven– defying long legs stepped down. The man’s black windbreaker flew in the air. His handsome face was filled with

killing intent, and he looked around in a daze.

“Chloe! I’m back!”
