Zoelle followed the indicated direction, assessing Xavia from head to toe. "So, she's his first love but not his ex-wife?"The mention of Joseph’s ex-wife made Chloe nervously adjust her hair. "Aren’t you curious about the woman who managed to conquer Joseph? He was entangled with his first love for over five years, longer than his ex-wife.""That makes sense," Zoelle agreed, not harboring any suspicion."By the way, how did you manage to get in without an invitation?"“Otto gave me an invite.”"Otto?" Chloe's eyes widened. "Why would he give you an invitation?" Royal invitations were not easy to come by, and these two had only met once.Zoelle retrieved her lipstick and applied it with great allure. “You’re not the only one who needs me. I'm in quite high demand, don’t you know?”“What does he want from you? Did he ask you to treat someone?”“I'm not telling you.”Chloe let out a sigh, looking somewhat forlorn. “I thought we were close. I just wasn’t expecting you to be so cl

"Pfft..." Chloe inhaled sharply, struggling to contain her glee.Was Clara not supposed to be Xavia's lackey? Yet, it seemed like she had been playing two roles—one for the public eye and another behind the scenes.At that moment, Xavia quivered as if she had been struck by an intense force. She appeared as delicate as a sheet of paper on the brink of crumbling. She swiftly bolted out of the door, fleeing as if desperate to escape the scene.As the crowd grew larger, Chloe was struck with an idea. She subtly nudged Zoelle with her elbow, and the latter instantly grasped her thoughts. As Xavia rushed past them, Zoelle extended her foot. Consumed by anger, Xavia failed to notice this subtle motion and tripped. As she headed face-first to the ground, Zoelle quickly caught her by the waist."Oww, are you okay? You should watch where you’re going.”Xavia, not wanting to be here, swiftly shook Zoelle off and continued running without a word in response."So? Did you manage to feel anyt

Chloe could not argue with that statement as it was true. She was no longer the naive and trusting girl she once was, no longer willing to leave herself vulnerable to others. It seemed wiser to deceive others than to be deceived herself. However, she genuinely did not believe this to be a big deal. If Zoelle cared that much, she would be honest about it.Observing that Chloe had no intention of elaborating, Zoelle let out a heavy snort and pressed on, "I don't know what happened between you and Joseph, but you're engaged to Noah now, who happens to be my good friend. I won't tolerate any betrayal from your end. If I get so much as a whiff, I won't be so quick to forgive you then.""I don't—""Enough. I’m going to engage the company of some handsome men.""Shall we go to the bonfire or head home?" Noah asked flatly as he watched Zoelle walk away.Chloe looked toward him, a hint of disappointment in her eyes. "The bonfire," she replied. She had yet to inform Ophelia about Xavia's fa

On the road, Noah threw glances at Chloe seated in the passenger seat. He seemed deaf and blind to everything else around him as he mechanically turned the steering wheel. His mind was filled with images of Chloe worrying over Joseph. It was like an enlarged photo constantly flashing before him, and he felt as if his heart was tearing into two.He could not understand why Chloe still chose Joseph over him after everything he had done. Was his five years of feelings for her worth nothing?Noah had never felt this miserable before. Throughout his life, things he worked hard for would eventually yield results. Achieving excellence in his academic endeavors, devoting himself to Exotic Star, diligently preparing for his graduate exams… He thought it would be the same with Chloe. He thought that by being by her side day after day, bringing her favorite foods, buying delicious candies, and building their careers together, she would come to like him one day.But today, he realized how pathe

Chloe was taken aback. Her thoughts were still foggy from just waking up. She recalled only drinking a glass of water that a helper had brought over last night, so how had she slept so soundly? If someone had entered her room, she should not have been completely oblivious to it.She pondered over the matter, and an answer slowly formed in her mind. Someone must have spiked her water. And other than Noah, she could not think of anyone else who would have done so. Chloe’s anger surged, and she pounded on the door with all her might. "Open the door!" The palms of her hands turned red from the force.After a few minutes, a helper came by. She cautiously approached the door and said, "I'm sorry, Ms. Chloe, but I don't have the key. I can't open the door.""Get me Noah then!" Chloe shouted."Mr. Noah isn't here. He went to work." "What about Grandpa?""Mr. Desmond left for an overseas trip this morning as arranged by Mr. Noah. He's not here either..."Chloe's pupils contracted. She
