Hearing Lauretta say this, Grover's face dropped.
"Do you really believe in all that?"
"Of course I do! It's from the priest of Graceful Haven Church, and it's all come true... The phoenix hiding in the forest, unable to return home, a life full of setbacks, always being framed by villains – isn't that Keira? She's the daughter of the Summers family, but she grew up outside, and all the things she experienced were challenges brought by fate. And Chloe, clearly the 'villain'…
The most important part is 'the younger generation will surpass the older.' Didn't Keira eventually return to the Summers family?
She was born a phoenix, with great fortune. Have you ever thought about how much honor Keira will bring to the Olson family in the future?"
"..." Grover squinted and fell silent, not saying anything more.
Thinking about it carefully, his wife's words seemed to make sense.
As businessmen, especially the most vulgar ones, they more or less believe in these things.
Just like the Summers family firmly believes in them too!
But now they never mention it, not even thinking of it –
Back when the Olson family almost went bankrupt, it was Chloe who selflessly helped them, bit by bit, to get back on their feet…
Chloe returned to Emerald Valley Estates and collapsed on the sofa.
She tried not to think about all the people she had seen today, all the words she had heard
.
But it was just how people were. The more you want to escape and the more you feel disgusted, the easier it is for your mood and emotions to be affected.
She sighed, pressing her hand on her forehead, and the room was silent.
She
wondered if she were being punished for anything she’d done in the past life.
What did she owe these people?
After a while, she suddenly lifted her head, a cold glint in her eyes.
She took out her phone from her purse, flipped through the contacts, and dialed.
The call was quickly answered, and Chloe coldly said,
"How's the thing I asked you to check?... Yeah, send me the info now!"
