The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1485

On the plane, Chloe was browsing through local news. When she came across the mess Wendy made at Abelard's birthday bash, she didn't know what to make of it.

As a woman, Chloe wasn't gloating over Wendy's predicament. But as an adversary, especially one who had been harassed by Wendy time and again, she didn't feel any sympathy for Wendy's plight.

From the video recorded at the time, Chloe might have pieced together a few things. The Alonso family and the Bowles family had no particular connection, but why did Wendy suddenly show up at Abelard's birthday party? It was as Angie had told her before, that the Alonso family wanted Phoebe Alonso to marry Abelard.

To ensure Phoebe's successful marriage, she did not doubt that Wendy and Grace would resort to some dirty tricks.

In the end, it was Wendy who got the short end of the stick, not Phoebe. You could say it was karma for Wendy. She tried to screw over others but ended up screwing herself over instead.

Compared to Chloe's understanding of Wendy, Phoebe, who was with her day and night, knew her better. Seeing through Wendy's tricks was a piece of cake for Phoebe. But Wendy never expected that the previously docile and inconspicuous Phoebe would suddenly fight back.

Nathan sat in his chair, shaking his head as he read the news in his hand. "Wendy even got rejected for her own wedding proposal. She's really screwed."

Kane said, "I can't believe the once gentle Wendy would turn out like this when she grew up."

"Maybe she was spoiled when she was a child. She got whatever she wanted and was used to being adored. It's messed up her character."

"That's why you have to be careful when spoiling someone. Excessive pampering can easily lead someone astray."

As Nathan spoke, he subtly glanced at Damon.

Nathan's hint was crystal clear. However, Damon didn't respond. Nathan pursed his lips, regretting bringing up the boring topic. "Without any investment, the Alonso Corporation is definitely stuck in a rut this time. Chloe, what are you planning to do?"

Chloe continued looking at her phone, casually replying, "Obviously, I'm going to buy the Alonso Corporation as soon as possible."

She glanced at Damon and said, "The Alonso family left a 20% investment space for the Harper family. I saw in the news that Robin plans to invest, but I don't know if this investment will be transferred to the Alonso Corporation in advance."

"No way," Damon said. "Robin is very cautious. Even if he wants to invest, he will wait until Ava's family's funds are confirmed before he makes a move."

Chloe quickly swiped her phone screen and called Axel. The phone was quickly connected, and Axel's voice was full of enthusiasm and excitement. "Ms. Summers, what can I do for you?"

Chloe was not in the mood for small talk with Axel and immediately said, "Recall those shares of the Alonso Corporation in the stock market now..."

Axel laughed. "Ms. Summers, there's no need to rush. The recovery of those shares was arranged long ago. We've been working on multiple fronts to prevent anyone from getting a jump on us. Plus, Yasmine has repeatedly stressed this, so don't worry..."

Chloe was slightly relieved, "That's good..."

Axel added, "However, there will always be oversights. A very small part of the shares were grabbed..."

Chloe frowned slightly. "The Harper family?"

"...Yes. Ms. Summers, you're really smart."
