The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 887

Chloe had already turned her back, eyeing the photography pieces hanging in the hallway. Jacob glanced at her, then at Katie who was standing next to her, dressed in a simple linen outfit, with her head lowered. He sneered and walked away without a backward glance.

Katie unintentionally caught sight of this scene and felt a bit embarrassed. She tugged at Chloe's sleeve, hinting if they should leave.

But Chloe took her hand and led her in.

Miles watched them, his fists clenched. He took a long look at them and then slumped down on a chair.

“We’re not open. Can you guys go somewhere else?”

Chloe didn't let it bother her, "Your sign said ‘Open’ when we walked in. So, you don't have any right to kick us out. Unless you want a complaint.”

Miles looked up at her after hearing her words. Chloe, however, pulled Katie in front of her.

“Cut her bangs off. You decide the rest of the style.”

Hearing Chloe's words, Katie panicked, “No… Don’t…”

Chloe led her to a chair in front of the styling station, “Trust me.”

“Trust… you?” Katie asked, confused.

Chloe gave a faint smile and touched her forehead, “Presley wanted you to come with me today for this very reason.”

Katie still didn't get it.

“Just sit still and let the stylist do his job. It’s not like it can get any worse at this point.”

Hearing Chloe's words, Katie felt even more depressed. She decided to give up.

Seeing all of this, Miles's mouth twitched. How can this woman just do whatever she wanted on his turf?! And why did her words sound so harsh?

At this moment, Chloe looked at Miles and said in a clear and concise manner, “I’ll leave it to you.”

Upon closer look, Miles's gaze faltered, "You are…”

Chloe raised an eyebrow at him.

He didn't say another word, just lifted Katie's bangs, and when he saw the red birthmark on her forehead, he paused, then looked at Chloe, "Are you sure you want to do this?”

“Sure.” Chloe answered calmly, then walked over to the rest area, picked up a portfolio from the studio, and started to browse.

Miles took a look around Katie, and noticing her low self-esteem and nervousness, he couldn't help but say,

“You don't need to be so hard on yourself. Some people are pretty on the outside but ugly on the inside. If they can live freely, why can't you?”

Katie didn't answer. The birthmark on her forehead had been a source of insecurity for her for over twenty years, and it wasn't something that could be solved with a few words.

Miles had already started to style her hair, “I admit, a pretty appearance can give people confidence. I can't change a person's heart, but changing a person's appearance is not a big deal for me.”

After a while, when the stylist announced, "Done," Chloe approached Katie with a set of clothes.

When Miles saw the clothes, his gloomy eyes lit up.

Chloe raised her hand, touching her chin, and studied Katie from all angles. Her forehead, now clean and smooth, was fully exposed. Under the bright light, the gloss on her forehead was clearly visible.

Her light brown eyes were very beautiful, bright and energetic. Her facial features were soft, and she had a very low-key vibe due to her years of feeling inferior.

“Very good.”

Katie didn't even have a chance to look in the mirror,

Chloe had already handed the clothes to the stylist, “Please help her change into this.”
