Chapter 99
A Billion-Rich Woman Was Chased by Her EX-Husband
Chapter 99 In the end, it was Chloeâs turn to deliver the birthday gift.
When the bright yellow pear rose chair was lifted, the DNA of all the appraisers and antique lovers moved!
âGood stuff This is really good stuff!â
âAiya, my addiction has been hooked up! I really want to touch it!â
âThe birthday gift that Old Master Sawle accepted today, other than the azure kiln that Mr. Sawle gave him, this chair is the most precious!â
âWhat is the background of this Miss Lewis? She has spent tens of millions on this antique furniture! It seems that Mr. Sawleâs ex-wife is also an invisible rich woman!â
Josephâs heart shrank, and his dark eyes, like the deep sea, looked at his ex-wife.
He did not expect that Raya would take out the thing that Thorp Group bought, just as a birthday gift to his grandfather, This was 100 million!
It seemed that Thorp Group really doted on her very much.
Unexpectedly. Chloeâs next words even disturbed his breathing.
âGrandfather, this is a gift from President Thorp and II wish you luck as boundless as the sea. Your lifespan is over 8,000 years oldâ Chloeâs eyes were bright, and her tone was joyful as she congratulated her grandfather/
Oscar gently cupped his fists and bowed, âOld Master Sawle, I wish you the endurance of the moon and the ascendance of the sun.
They stood together, clegant, dignified, noble, peerless...
A perfect match made in heaven!
Josephâs heart trembled violently. He subconsciously raised his hand and pressed down on his heart. His movements were very fast, afraid of being discovered by anyone.
âSigh, child, this gift is too expensive, too expensive!â
Rory was very touched, âRaya, 1 like everything you give me. You really donât have to spend so much money. And Young Master Thorp, you are too polite!â
Oscar smiled. âOld Master Sawle, when Raya and I prepared the gift, we didnât think too much about it. We just wanted to make you happyâ
âAiya, Grandpa, just accept it. Miss Lewis is merely borrowing flowers to offer to the Buddha.â
Skyler smiled coldly, âBut sending gifts like this is quite convenient. You donât have to prepare yourself to win the praise of everyone. Miss Lewis is indeed a person who knows how to curry favor. She is very thrifty.â
Chloe pursed her lips, âHow could I dare to take such a big advantage? So I also prepared a small gift for Grandpa. However, compared to President Thorpâs, it is really a bit unpresentable.â
Skyler was suddenly shocked!
This cheap woman actually had a backup plan?
âOh? What did Raya prepare for Grandfather again? Quick, let Grandfather have a look!â Rory immediately became interested again.
Chloeâs beautiful eyes shone with a mysterious light, and then she clapped her hands.
Soon, Jordan, who was dressed in a suit and tie, came in from the outside, holding a glass box in his hand.
A box protected a magnificent view carved from top-quality colored jade; strange mountain rocks, vivid and lifelike, pleasing to the eye!
âOh! Itâs really amazing!â Everyone exclaimed in admiration.
Joseph and Vincent were also deeply attracted by this exquisite carving work. It was such a coincidence that a pair of wonderful hands could carve such a natural work!
âAh! This, this is...â
Rory was so excited that his eyes lit up. His hand trembled as he pointed at the jade carving. âIsnât this Tadeâs work Thousand Miles Rivers and Mountains? Raya, where did you get it fromâ
Tade?
The deceased carving master who was famous overseas? His work was hard to come by!
âGrandpa, you think too highly of me. How can I get Master Tadeâs Thousand Miles Rivers and Mountains...â
Chloe scratched her head in embarrassment. âThis is a copy I carvedâ âHundred Miles Rivers and Mountainsâ. I carved it with my heart, but it is still different from Master Tadeâs work. It is just a show of shame.â
Everyone looked at this beautiful girl in amazement.
Show of shame? What kind of joke was this?
Only the carving work at the peak of perfection could concentrate thousands of scenes on jade, creating an extremely elegant craftsmanship that, when viewed from afar, looks like Tadeâs Thousand Miles Rivers and Mountains!
This girl, who exactly was she? Could it be that she was Tadeâs last disciple?
Everyone looked at Chloe with admiration and amazement.
Only Aubree and Skylerâs expressions were uglier than if they had eaten two pounds of cockroach.
This woman had become a completely different person ever since she left Sawle family. She was truly unstoppable!
âRaya! My Raya, you really are grandpaâs treasure!â Rory was so happy that he couldnât close his mouth. He held Chloeâs hand and didnât want to let go anymore.
âHaving a wife like this... what else can a husband ask for... Vincent stared straight at her and sighed in a daze.
Joseph couldnât help but glare at him coldly, his eyes filled with a cold glint.
What wife? What request?
His eyes were red as he once again looked at Raya, who was admired by everyone like the stars surrounding the moon. He felt that he was far from her world.
But he had clearly been her husband for three years!
Shock, resentment, unwillingness... Countless tangled emotions fiercely bit at his heart.
He had been tricked. He had once again been tricked by this woman!
The birthday banquet was carried out in the midst of laughter.
Chloe, wanting to touch up her makeup, left her grandfatherâs side temporarily to go to the bathroom.
Along the way, she thought back to the obstacles that Grace and Aubree had made for her from the beginning to now. They were low and despicable, and she only felt that it was laughable.
They were all thousand-year-old foxes, yet they still wanted to chat in front of her. They were overestimating themselves. She had long anticipated what point they would seize to attack her, but it was a pity that they could not calculate a single. thing â
That was, her grandfather loved her from the bottom of his heart.
Love was what their conspiracy could not destroy, a fortress that could never be conquered.
â
Chloe knew well if her eldest brother came forward, it would certainly be inappropriate to send the rosewood chair, so that she could present the jade carving she had carved half a month ago to her grandfather.
And the reason why she could have such superb craftsmanship was because she had been squatting in a pile of stones and watching Uncle Sharp carving jades since she was a child, In retrospect, Master Tade could be considered her grandmaster.
The Chinese villa corridor was very long, winding and roundabout. This was the first time Chloe came here. After two turns, she quickly lost her way.
At this time, a fat little kitten slipped in front of her.
âEh? Little cutie, where are you running to?â
Chloe became excited and chased after the cat with a smile on her cheeks.
It was not easy to catch up, but cheongsam was too tight. Her high heels slipped on the cobblestone floor, and she staggered forward and missed.
In front of her was the stairs!
âAhlâ Chloe screamed and closed her eyes.
Suddenly, a pair of strong and firm arms wrapped around her slender waist like vines from behind her back.
Steady and reliable, her panicked and helpless heart instantly calmed down.
Immediately, her body became light and her back, which was only separated by a thin layer of silk, pressed tightly against the familiar âwallâ.
âMeow â
That fat cat, who was sitting on the fake mountain, gloated and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Chloe slowly opened her eyes, but she did not dare to look back. She only opened her soft lips and breathed in the manâs arms like orchids.
Joseph clearly felt that her sweaty back was pressing against his warm chest.
Like the fluttering wings of a butterfly, it carried a fascinating tension.
The manâs heartbeat under the suit was difficult to control.
âLet go, havenât you hugged enough?â Chloe bit her lips and struggled in his arms.
Josephâs clear black and white eyes were covered with a layer of darkness. His broad hands caressed the waist that made people unable to stop and released her.
âYou think I am willing? Isnât it because you are going to fall down?â His expression was cold and stern.
âIch, donât think that I will thank youâ
âI would rather fall to the ground and look for my teeth than let you take advantage of me,â Chloe said as she supported herself on the edge of the pillar.
In the sunset, this pretty face was alluring.
âTaking advantage of you?â
âIf I wanted to take advantage of you, why would I wait until now?â Joseph asked with a cold smile.
âJoseph Chloeâs almond eyes widened.
âIn the past, wasnât it you who rushed to deliver the advantage to me?â
âWe are divorced, but I havenât lost my memoryâ Joseph narrowed his eyes.
From the beginning of the birthday banquet until now, the waves of impact his ex-wife had given him had already filled his -entire chest with anger.
If he continued to endure, he was afraid that he would be sick from holding it in.
Chloeâs heart fell fiercely, and the towering sense of shame flowed through all his limbs and bones, causing her to laugh in anger.
âAh, so how are you now?â
âYou didnât know how to cherish things that were easy to obtain in the past. Now that you have lost them, are you regretting it?â
âRaya, you...â
âMr. Sawle, havenât you heard of this saying? This village doesnât have this shop after you miss it. You donât want those things that I wanted to give you in the past. If you want them again in the future, there is no way!â
Josephâs eyes turned red in an instant. He grabbed her slender wrist with both hands and pressed her soft body against the pillar!
