The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1476

Being nice couldn't save her mom's life, and it sure as hell couldn't stop that mother-daughter duo's ambition and their oppression on her.

She took a deep breath, hugged herself, and saw Wendy approaching her through the large window in front of her.

Tears welled up in her eyes, her lips trembling as she tried to hold back her tears.

"Sooner or later, this day would come. I thought by your attitude this afternoon you've already accepted reality."

"So, why the waterworks? Being a fool ain't all that bad. Maybe he'll do whatever you say. Maybe the whole Bowles family will be yours..."

Phoebe turned around, looking down at Wendy, tears falling from her downcast eyes.

She gave Wendy a cold look and a laugh. "All these years, we've been getting along just fine. And this is how you repay me in the end? Wendy, I think you're cunning and deceitful, do you think I'm wronging you?"

But Wendy didn't get angry, replying, "Whether you're wronging me or not, they aren't qualified to judge me. It's survival of the fittest, I'm just trying to get what I want. Look at everyone here, who doesn't want to live their best life?"

Phoebe looked where Wendy was pointing. Everyone in the ballroom, the men in suits were looking dashing, and the ladies looked elegant and regal.

Indeed, all of them were thinking about how to live a better life, a more exciting life.

It didn’t make sense not to think for oneself.

Turned out everyone was like this.

She suddenly laughed, seeing the light, fully understanding what Chloe meant.

Everyone was selfish. Everything Wendy did was to satisfy her own desires.

While Chloe's selfishness only gave herself a “right,” including the right to be kind, the courage to love, to hate, and to be happy...

"You're right."

She nodded. Humans truly were selfish.

Wendy smirked and yelled at a waiter not far away.

"Two glasses of red wine, please."

The waiter glanced at her, and as he was going to pick up the wine glasses, Phoebe had already walked up to Wendy.

Wendy sat in her wheelchair, her body hidden in the shadow of Phoebe's body.

Phoebe gave the waiter a hard stare, and after a few seconds, the waiter lowered his head, letting Phoebe take the wine glass from his hand.

Then Phoebe stepped back, and Wendy stared at the glass on the waiter's tray for a while before she reached out to take it.

Wendy looked at the clear fingerprint on the glass and smiled faintly.

"Today might be the most honest we've ever been in our lives. Let's toast to that."

Phoebe smiled and clinked glasses with Wendy.

Then they both raised their glasses...

Phoebe's lips touched the edge of the glass, her cold eyes watching as Wendy finished the wine in her hand.

She slowly raised her glass, as the bright red wine was spilling all over her clothes.

When Wendy finished most of her own wine and looked up at Phoebe, she saw the wine stains on her dress and frowned.

"What happened?"

Phoebe laughed, replying, "Spilled it all over myself..."

Wendy's face turned cold, but the next moment, she continued, "You might need to change your clothes, I can go with you."

Phoebe smiled slightly. "I'll clean up in the bathroom first..."

Wendy hurriedly said, "There's a lot of people, accidents might happen, so I'll go with you."
