The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1537

If Nate could see it, then Chloe was crystal clear about it. She quirked an eyebrow and winked at Damon. Damon smirked a little.

The tiny interaction between the two was seen by the judges sitting ahead. They were speechless, almost ready to flip their lids. This was the court for crying out loud!

But the eye contact between the two wasn't that obvious, so they had nothing to say.

Chloe was oblivious to the judges' inner reactions. She turned to Carolina and smiled, “So, Ms. Carolina? Are you happy with the arrangements I made for Keira?”

Chloe saw the indignation on Carolina's face. She smiled, “Bottom line, jail is where she belongs. Since she's too shy to say it, I'll help out since you brought it up today. It's no biggie, no need to thank me.”

Chloe's actions made everyone breathe a sigh of relief. They were literally about to die from Carolina's antics. Thank goodness Chloe didn't let them down.d2

Wendy sat in her wheelchair, her eyes filled with unhidden hatred and malice for Chloe. Especially seeing her smug face, she wished Chloe would drop dead right in front of her a thousand times.

Carolina might be heartless, but when it came to Keira, she had invested her whole life in her. Even knowing Chloe was her own biological granddaughter, in her heart, Keira, the granddaughter she had pampered for half her life with no blood relation, was irreplaceable.

However...

“Your love for her is your business, nothing to do with me. Want me to help her? Ms. Carolina, you might not realize how much I hope she has a rough time.” Chloe said.

Carolina's face turned even uglier.

“Anything else? Any other complaints?” Chloe asked.

Carolina squinted at Chloe, realizing it was pointless to argue further. “For now, no.”

Chloe chuckled, “There's no 'for now' in court. If you can't think of it now, it won’t matter once we leave the court. Oh well, I think anymore you say will still be useless though.”

Carolina didn't respond, showing contempt for Chloe's words. She glanced at her lawyer whose face had turned quite ugly, and decided to keep quiet.

What was the biggest taboo for lawyers in court? It was when their clients start running their mouths. Because the law was very strict. To say one wrong thing, even one word, it could cost them a case they could've won.

The additional conditions Carolina just mentioned, they were beyond what they had previously discussed. Was it trying to milk more out of the situation? Had Carolina lived so long and still not learned this simple thing?

However, just as the lawyer noticed Carolina was about to stop, and he was about to stand up to express his demands, Chloe on the other side calmly spoke, “Did everything Ms. Carolina just said fall within the 2 billion you previously mentioned?”
