The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1356

"Alright..."

As Cicely was speaking, a black sports car slowly pulled up next to them. Next, the car door opened, and a tall figure appeared in their sight. He was dressed in a suit, looking elegant and sophisticated, oozing grace and nobility with every move.

Every time Chloe saw him, she could feel a deep sense of cunning and ruthlessness from him.

There was no concrete evidence of his character; only his appearance and demeanor were enough to give her this impression.

If it weren't for Damon, Chloe might not have had any contact with this man, let alone unexpectedly screw him over in this Infinity Media affair. He was supposed to be a godlike figure, but now he was utterly detestable.

He was Seth.

Chloe's heart began to race. This lasted until Cicely suddenly let go of her hand.

Seth glanced at Chloe indifferently and a cold light flashed in his eyes. Then he turned his gaze to Cicely. He closed the car door and walked over.

Cicely still had candy in her mouth, and the once-sweet candy now tasted bitter.

Cicely looked up at Seth and taunted with a smirk, "Do you enjoy stalking me?"

"Why aren't you going in?" Seth looked up at the orphanage.

Faced with Cicely's attitude, Seth did not react in anger, but just smiled slightly.

“What's it to you?”

Cicely spat out a sentence and walked past Seth, quickly leaving the front of the orphanage. She didn't want to tangle with Seth here, she couldn't let him have any chance to see Hugo. As Cicely walked faster and faster, she felt as if Seth was like a demon. But, she hadn't gotten far before her wrist was grabbed by a cold hand.

Her heart pounded, she turned and saw Seth's towering figure closing in.

"Let go." Cicely struggled, her voice trembling slightly.

Seth squinted, he looked down at Cicely's reddened wrist due to the struggle.

"Why are you running?" His deep voice resonated in Cicely's ear. He looked up, eyes filled with a mix of familiarity and fear, wisdom, and curiosity.

His thumb gently rubbed her wrist. His lips curled up, and even his eyes seemed to hold a hint of a smile as he spoke again, “Why are you in such a hurry to leave? Have you done something you don’t want me to know?”

Chloe stood still; hearing this made her nervous. She stared at Cicely, afraid of her losing control because of Seth’s words. In front of someone like Seth, even the slightest slip could have unthinkable consequences.

However, Cicely stared at Seth after a moment of silence, and laughed lightly.
