The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 226

Manuel got so scared that he jumped and started looking for the switch all over the room.

Finally, his quick wit saved the day – he poured some water out of the flower vase, and the alarm finally stopped.

Having resolved a major issue, Chloe arranged the next big thing – she contacted Rose to attend tonight’s dinner party.

Rose was in her office; she sipped coffee and browsed the latest news online.

When Chloe called, she had just come across an interesting piece of news.

"Chloe, what's up?"

"Err, make sure you're free tonight. I'm taking you to meet someone."

Rose replied while clicking her mouse, "Sure, I've been pretty relaxed lately. But who am I going to meet?"

"Um, my boyfriend."

"Oh, okay, boyfriend…."

Rose continued talking. It took her a moment to process the last sentence, "Boyfriend?"

"Yeah."

"…Chloe, you haven't had a fallen from grace, have you?" Rose asked after a pause.

"Do you think I would introduce him to you if I had?"

"That's true." Rose nodded, "Alright, I'll be there tonight. I can't wait to see this lucky guy! Oh, and I had someone bring me lipstick from the F Country. I'll bring you two tonight."

"Great. Let's go together after work."

"Okay…" Rose agreed and then glanced at the news on her computer screen, laughing, "Have you seen the news online?"
