Chapter 224

Chapter 224 Skyler’s remarks drew the attention of those around her.

The amount of information was staggering!

At first, all the blame was placed on KS WORLD, with Ada Wang being the one whose rights and interests had been infringed upon in the incident.

Chloe had yet to address the chaos in her hotel, and was keen to execute MINT’s activities, likely to deceive people and demonstrate that her hotel was not impacted by Ada Wang’s contract termination and still had the capacity to host a large-scale event.

Thirdly, Chloe has been held accountable as the general manager for KS WORLD Hotel’s failure to meet the guests’ needs, lack of confidentiality, and security breach.

Turning around, Ada Wang chose Sawle Group, indicating that Sawle Group Hotel was superior and more dependable than KS WORLD in every respect.

The reporters, one by one, raised sharp questions to Chloe who was standing in the middle, talking about it.

Chloe had foreseen that a disaster would occur today.

Skyler fanned the flames in order to leverage public opinion to mount an attack against her and the hotel.

Glancing at the mother-daughter duo, their delicate makeup failed to conceal the villainous smirk on their faces.

What a clown, utterly ridiculous!

Ada Wang and Alice, two female bosses in the fashion and entertainment industries, arrived at the venue together at this time.

They happened to witness Chloe being ridiculed by Skyler and surrounded by reporters.

Alice, wearing sunglasses and looking so cool that she had no friends, glanced at the emotionless Chloe and nudged Ada beside her. “I reckon you shouldn’t throw in the towel on your partnership with Miss Thorp.”

“Ada Wang inquired, arching an eyebrow.

“Her big brother is an extraordinary man. It’s no exaggeration to say that Mr. Oscar is the most handsome man I’ve ever seen in my life.”

“He is my ideal partner, declared Alice, who was hiding behind her sunglasses.

“Her big brother is your ‘ideal partner’. What does that have to do with me not working with Chloe?” asked Ada Wang, perplexed.

“For the sake of my virtual sister-in-law,” Alice implored in a gentle tone, “couldn’t you give Miss Thorp another chance?”

Ada Wang was speechless, wondering if this was a moral kidnapping.

On the second floor, unnoticed by anyone.

Joseph stood tall and straight by the railing, his dark eyes darkening as he silently observed the events unfolding below. His gaze, burning with intensity, returned to Chloe’s face, which remained composed and serene. His lips/curved in a thoughtful smile.

He was aware that she would not succumb easily.

The Thorp family was unafraid of battle, and the more they fought, the more spirited they grew.

“Mr. Sawle, Young Madam is under siege. Those reporters who don’t know the facts will surely write falsehoods to sully Young Madam’s reputation!”

“Do you want to come up with a plan to assist Young Madam?” Max gazed downstairs with great concern.

“No.”

Joseph’s expression became cold again, “Even if Chloe is indeed framed, I can’t bring myself to speak up for her. I’m a part of the Sawle Group. If I try to force my way out, it will only make the situation worse.”

“I reckon she’s ready. I can’t go out and mess up her plan.”

Max nodded in understanding. After all, Young Madam was not one to abide by the rules. It was best not to disturb her flow. Most critically, Chloe had seen Mr. Sawle’s reputation crumble. If she were to appear now, it would only deepen her disdain for him.

“Max,” Joseph said in a low, intimidating voice, “I’m entrusting these two things to you.”

“Please say it!”

“First, that audacious reporter just now. I want you to look into this individual in the domestic news industry from now on.”

“Yes!”

“Secondly, contact Sawle Group’s public opinion team and request that they keep an eye on public opinion on the web. If there are any unfavorable remarks about Chloe and KS WORLD Hotel, make sure to remove them promptly.”

“Yes!”

Max spun on his heel and deployed the orders given by Mr. Sawle.

Joseph stood alone in the same spot, gazing at Chloe’s determined and obstinate little face, his eyes gradually softening.

“It’s just a trifling thing, no need to express gratitude.”

Beat the gongs and drums on the stage and stir up some trouble.

I will back you up for matters below the surface.

The commotion downstairs persisted.

“Miss Thorp, we at Sawle Group are regretful that your collaboration with Miss Ada did not come to fruition this time.”

Aubree saw that the spearhead was pointed at Chloe. At this point, it would be too much to say if she didn’t step in and intervene. “In terms of management, you’re new and inexperienced. It’s understandable that you’ll make some mistakes in your decisions. But it’ll get better over time.”

“Who hasn’t made mistakes when they were young? The key is to recognize those mistakes and make changes.”

“Yes, this time it is indeed my fault that allowed the person who plotted against me to succeed.”

Chloe’s beautiful eyes narrowed. From her smile, there was no strange emotion visible. “I’ll be more careful in the future. This time, I’ll make sure I pay my tuition.”

Aubree inwardly sneered.

“Does President Thorp mean...,” a reporter asked in surprise, “that you were framed?”

“Everyone, the charity auction is about to begin. Let’s head over to the venue,” Chloe said, not directly responding, and glided to the other location.

She didn’t so much as glance at Aubree and Skyler.

This deprived the mother and daughter of the satisfaction of vanquishing their foe and the elation of triumph.

“This little brat,” Aubree sneered, her eyes filled with malice as she stared at Chloe’s back. “Does she think that by speaking in a deliberately confusing way, the situation will change? She’s really being capricious!”

“Hmph, did you catch that just now? She was too apathetic to argue. She has already put on a display of self-deprecation!”

Skyler excitedly hugged her mother’s arm. “Once the event is done, I’ll reach out to a few press outlets to write up two chapters and help Chloe ‘publicize. Let everyone see how inept she is as a hotel manager!”

“Madam Sawle, Sister Skyler!”

Zoey, renowned for her hidden talents, felt the moment was right and, with her skirt held high, she glided towards them. “Hey hey hey, Zoey!”

“I was searching for you everywhere, and I thought you weren’t here!” Aubree eagerly moved forward to clasp her hand. “Mom, I have something to tell you.”

“For Ada Wang to be able to successfully sign a contract with us this time, it must be all thanks to Zoey!” Skyler smiled gratefully at her.

“Sister Skyler, it was nothing,” Zoey smiled shyly. “It’s not worth mentioning.”

“Well done, my child. I won’t forget your kind intentions.”

Aubree smiled knowingly and caressed the back of Zoey’s hand. “If ever you need a hand, just let me know. I’ll do all I can to help you out.”
