Chapter 125

Chapter 125 In order to facilitate Balin City’s project, Jake invited Mayor Savor and his wife to play a round of golf at the course in the western suburbs.

Usually a high-traffic spot with few guests, today it was more like a private affair, with only the Sawle Group and Mayor Savor’s entourage present.

Aubree, with her graceful figure and light makeup, stood alongside her daughter Skyler, both wearing pure white golf outfits.

Despite her lack of skill, her golf ball was still smashed, and the two of them looked like sisters.

She brought Skyler over to have her confront Mayor Savor and his wife.

At twenty-five years old, Skyler was of marriageable age, and Aubree was not going to miss any chance to further her daughter’s prospects. Even though she was aware that Skyler was in love with Vincent, she couldn’t just sit back and do nothing, she had to cast her net wide and focus on cultivating potential suitors.

“Greetings, Mayor Savor and Mrs. Savor,” Skyler said, bowing gracefully with a gentle smile.

“Oh, this is your daughter, right? She looks even more beautiful in person than she does on TV!” Mrs. Savor smiled at Skyler.

Aubree and her daughter’s expressions instantly stiffened.

The speaker had no intention, yet the listener was thoughtful, inferring that this was in reference to the last time Skyler had held a press conference and apologized publicly.

“Apology Door” Despite it no longer being in vogue, there was still a rumor circulating on the Infernet that Skyler had made a fool of herself. There were all kinds of words that could be likened to those of a tiger and wolf not to mention how mortifying it was.

Mayor Savor coughed hurriedly and gave the madam a look.

Only then did Mrs. Savor react and laugh dryly. “Haha... Madam Sawle, your daughter is truly a sight to behold. I’d the cream of the crop when it comes to the daughters of the wealthy and influential families in Medo.”

“You are too kind, Mrs. Savor.”

“Why didn’t your son show up today? I heard earlier that your son is a gifted youngster and a classmate of Skyler’s.”

“Ah, my son has some matters to take care of today,” Mrs. Savor said.

“Aiyo, that’s too bad. I’ll make sure to set up a time for us to get together again soon” Aubree was very considerate.

“Haha... When we get the chance, we’ll definitely meet up”

say she’s “Oh right, doesn’t Madame Sawl have a younger daughter? Why isn’t she accompanying you all?” Mrs. Savor inquired. Skyler’s fake smile could no longer be maintained; it was clear that Madam Song didn’t like her.

If Mrs. Savor didn’t like her, that was fine; however, mentioning Annie in her presence was like slapping her in the face, as if she were treating the mayor’s son as a mere dish.

Aubree could only politely say, “My younger daughter is frail and ailing. She usually takes medication at home and is shy and doesn’t enjoy socializing, so she didn’t join us.”

“Oh my, what kind of sickness does she have at such a tender age? Is it serious?”

“It’s all good, she’ll be back to her old self after some rest and relaxation.”

Aubree distinctly heard the sound of Mrs. Savor calculating in her heart, as she didn’t like Skyler and desired to be in-laws with Sawle Group, thus aiming her sights on her younger daughter.

Did she think, my, Aubree’s daughter was like cabbages sold on street? What the hell!

Sawle Group and his son had played a few rounds with Mayor Savor, and as they strolled leisurely on the green grass, they chatted, “Mayor Savor, we at the Sawle Group are grateful for your support in accepting Balin City’s project.” Jake smiled and shook hands with Mayor Savor.

“It’s not our first rodeo, Mayor Savor said affectionately, his tone conveying the long-standing friendship he and Jake had shared for over a decade. “I’ve got a great project here. How could I not miss you?”

“Il sort it out tonight. Let’s have a toast, brothers]”

Tonight is my father-in-law’s birthday, and as his son-in-law, I’m obligated to be there for him throughout the year, no matter how hectic my schedule may be. I must be present.”

“There’s no need to rush to celebrate once we’ve officially inked the contract on Friday. When the time comes, we won’t be leaving until we’re good and tipsy!” Mayor Savor said with a smile.

Chapter 125 As Joseph listened to the two conversing and chuckling, he kept a stoic face, yet his heart felt like a heavy boulder was bearing down on it, and his breathing grew labored.

He had to complete this project before Friday.

Once the contract was signed, it became clear that the space he could operate in was too small to settle the matter.

Even if he exposed Aubree’s actions, this matter would still be relegated to a domestic affair For the sake of his family, Jake could not make any public appearances, so he had to keep this matter under wraps.

He had to create such a commotion that it could not be concealed, in order to force Aubree out.

The ferry car slowly pivoted and came to a halt in front of them.

“Mayor Savor, Director Sawle, how are you?”

A melodious and clear voice sounded, like a wind chime swaying in the breeze.

Joseph’s gaze suddenly shot up and, to his surprise, he saw that the woman in the car was Chloe!

Joseph’s heartstrings quivered, and a hidden warmth surged through his veins.

Yesterday, she had humiliated him as if he had been in pain, yet when he saw her again today, it was as if his memories had.

been restored, as if the previous day had been erased from his mind like amnesia.

Everyone was stunned, and Skyler couldn’t help but exclaim, “How did you get in here?!”

Tm a VIP here, I can strode through the door with confidence. Chloe said lightly.

Skyler’s eyes were aflame, and her cheeks reflexively flushed with pain.

After being thoroughly cleaned up by the woman that day, she now had PTSD when she saw her slippers.

Aubree was equally shocked.

When Mrs. Savor looked at this beautiful young lady, her eyes fixed straight ahead.

From where did this noble daughter come, with her aesthetic point of view? It was the ideal type for her future daughter-in-law!

Jordan exited the car first, taking the big miss’s hand in his, and guided her down.

-Today. Chloe was wearing a light blue golf suit, the white sun hat enhancing her beauty and charm. Her slender and graceful legs were accentuated by the short skirt, which the wind moved, giving her a youthful look.

She had the unexpected illusion of wearing a matching outfit with Mr. Sawle, who was similarly dressed.

Joseph’s eyes narrowed to slits, and a flame of passion ignited in his heart.

Indeed, her beauty was so remarkable that it could not be singled out.

“What a coincidence, Miss Thorp!” Jake exclaimed, astonished. “I actually ran into you here.” He smiled warmly in greeting though he was surprised too.

“It’s no mere chance, Director Sawle.”

Chloe put her hands behind her back and narrowed her beautiful eyes. “I specifically came to see Mayor Savor.”

“What?” Jake suddenly furrowed his brow.

Joseph’s heart tightened, and his face, already as cold as a sculpture, grew even more frigid.

After a few exchanges, he finally grasped Chloe’s crafty and treacherous style of doing things.

Once she appeared, there would be no doubt that something big was about to occur; she wouldn’t show up for no reason.

Could it be “Mayor Sayor, I heard that you have assumed control of the Medo and Balin City project. You are currently searching for a suitable developer partnership to succeed”

“In highly intrigued by this project. I look forward to collaborating with you, Mayor Savor, to construct Balin City together.”

71 The Sawle Group and his wife’s minds were abuzz, leaving them at a loss for how to react for a while!

Mayor Savor, perplexed, gazed blankly at Jake, then shifted his gaze to Joseph Joseph stared at Chloe without blinking, his throat burning and the tip of his tongue dry as a desert.

But this woman was so miserly that she wouldn’t even give him a glance.

Chapter 125 “Miss, may I inquire as to your identity...” Mayor Savor was perplexed.

“Greetings, Mayor Savor. I’m Chloe Thorp,” she said, offering her delicate right hand with a smile.

When Mayor Savor first heard the unfamiliar name, his expression was one of contempt.

But the next second, she added with a smile, “Sea Gate, Chairman of the KS Group, Stefan – he’s my father.”
