The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1538

"Having such a family member, it's easier to just throw her some dough and get her to shut up, right? Why go to such extreme lengths and keep her bugging us?"

"Exactly, dealing with people like her is such a pain in the ass. Just give her some cash and send her away."

"We knew we weren't going to win this lawsuit even before the trial started. Why are we still hanging in there? Is she really looking to get herself locked up?"

"Absolutely, this kind of stuff getting out can totally backfire."

Down below, Yulia and Rose who had been waiting for a while now were completely clueless about what was going on. They felt on edge and anxious.

"What the hell is Chloe up to? She dares to talk like that in court! Is she really itching for a taste of prison life?" Rose asked.d2

Yulia comforted Rose, "Damon won't let her go to jail."

Rose glanced at the expressionless man sitting in the front row and felt somewhat relieved.

"I totally forgot about him." Rose said. Her voice revealed a hint of relief, but she quickly became disgruntled, "Just because she has a man to shield her, she thinks she can do whatever she wants? She's way too reliant on men. She should know that men aren't always reliable."

Chloe's words left even the judge feeling helpless. Was she blatantly breaking the law in court? All these people were watching. What the hell were the judges supposed to do if she talked like this?

Carolina stared coldly at Chloe's smiling face, her heart pounding so fast she could barely breathe. "So, you'd rather break the law and go to jail than give me the money? It's just five billion; it's peanuts to you given your current net worth. Are you really more ruthless than me, preferring jail to giving me money?"

Chloe gave a faint smile, "I need both money and life. Naturally, I can't compete with you who would give up dignity for money."

Carolina stared at Chloe for a long time, her heart gradually enveloped by unease and fear. She had seen this state of Chloe many times now. She wouldn't be this calm and collected if she wasn't absolutely confident. "What are you planning?" Carolina asked.

Chloe casually brushed her hair aside, saying, "You're the plaintiff and I'm the defendant. You dragged me into court, so what can I do?"

Carolina wanted to retort, to say that in the past it was always her who was aggressive, and in the end, she was always controlled by Chloe, making everyone look at her like she was a fool.

But how could she possibly say these words?

Admit that she was once aggressive towards Chloe, or that she was outplayed by Chloe? Carolina wouldn't admit to either.

She asked, "So, are you refusing my request because you really want to go to jail?"
