The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1089

Chloe was talking as she walked behind her desk, placing the file on the table and then opening it. She scanned it quickly, picked up her pen, and signed the document.

Cicely's gaze was fixed on Chloe, paying attention to every move she made. She then leaned on the armrest of the sofa, crossing her arms over her chest.

"I'm here to remind you of what you promised before."

"What's that?"

"I need to make a living. I want to work here. What job can you arrange for me?"

At this, Chloe leaned back in her chair, deep in thought. After a long while, she turned to Cicely. "What job do you want?"

"I initially thought acting would be nice, but then I found it quite tough, and you can easily offend people. After giving it some thought, I figured being a director would suit me the best. If I’m in a bad mood, I can take it out on the actors."

Chloe pursed her lips. With such an absurd reason, she would be rejected even if she interviewed her a hundred times. How ridiculous!

"... As far as I remember you studied directing."

Cicely nodded, "Yes, I switched from acting to directing."

This woman!

Cicely chuckled, "So, are you going to arrange a director’s position for me?"

"In your dreams!"

Cicely’s words had already pissed Chloe off. Now she wanted to be a director straight away? Wasn't she dreaming?

Cicely chuckled softly, running her fingers through her hair. "Just arrange anything then. I'm not picky about the profession, as long as the salary is high."

Chloe was silent for a moment, "Didn't Seth already give you some money?"

Cicely's lips curled up in a small smile. It seemed that Chloe thought of something and asked, "Are there any problems with Seth? Will he allow you to leave?"

"He has no right to stop me from working, right?"

“…True.” Chloe responded nonchalantly. Since Cicely had said so, she didn’t need to worry too much.

After all, they were all in the same circle.

Looking at the document she just signed, Chloe stood up. "Just in time, come with me."

She didn't take off her coat, but was always quick to act. As soon as she finished speaking, she walked towards the office door.

Cicely picked up her coat from the couch and put it on as she walked.

-

At the hospital, in Crysti's room.

Chloe and Cicely stood by Crysti's bed, quietly watching her read the document.

"Just let us know if there are any issues with the contract. I'll make every effort to accomodate."

"No biggie" Crysti calmly replied. As soon as she finished speaking, a pen appeared in front of her, handed over by Chloe. "If there are no issues, then please sign it."

Crysti’s mouth twitched slightly, "Don't you think the penalty for breach of contract is a bit too high?"

Chloe was calm as ever, "If the penalty was low, would it bother you? Setting it a bit high ensures you won’t just up and leave."

Was this contract based on her family background?

"Signing this contract is like accepting a kind of restraint. I think you should experience it. Otherwise, life will be monotonous, without any worries or challenges. How boring."
