A Billion-Rich Woman Was Chased by Her EX-Husband
Chapter 136

Chapter 136

When Chloe came back to her villa, it was already the break of dawn.

Kiran was worried about her sister, clinging to hope and unable to sleep, her eyes red-rimmed from the heat, a pitiful sight. “Kiran, don’t beat yourself up Your sister is okay. Don’t you have school tomorrow morning? You should get some rest Chloe moved closer and embraced her.

“Sister, am 1. especially worthless? When I was young, you were the one who shielded me. As I grew older… I still couldn’t do anything for you… Kiran pressed her lips together, her eyes brimming with tears.

“What foolishness are you spouting, my dear?”

“The Thorp family is blessed to have both you and Sia, making the home atmosphere so pleasant. You are the youngest and most cherished member of us all.”

“If you truly wish to do something for me, then strive to make your dream a reality. When you’ve established yourself in the entertainment industry, I still need you to be a representative of our generation.”

“Sister, trust me… I’m sure to make it!” Kiran wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and nodded determinedly.

Kiran, after giving the pillow a quick wash, touched it and instantly drifted off to sleep.

Chloe walked out of the room after covering her sister with a blanket.

Jordan was already waiting for her in the study room.

“Grace appears to be spending the night in the hospital for some purpose. Have you discovered the cause?” The warmth in Chloe’s eyes vanished, and she perched on the sofa with a frosty look

“We located it. Grace attempted suicide, but was saved in time. She has now gone through the most dangerous phase”

Jordan paused, and his deep eyes glinted with a chill Joseph has been with her constantly.”

“Of course,” Chloe morked. “Little Green Tea didn’t want his life for her. Even if he turned into a corpse, he had to stand by Grace’s bedside she didn’t care a jot.”

“Young Mistress, what is your opinion of Grace?”

“Grace wants to take her own life. That’s the most hilarious thing I’ve heard all year!”

Chloe leaned her body, shut her eyes and massaged her aching temples. “She hasn’t married into the Sawle Group. She hasn’t killed me yet. How can she stand to die?”

“Furthermore, those who truly wish to die will not be found out. If they were to pass away, wouldn’t they be disheartened?”

“So, are you implying that Grace is attempting to cause Joseph distress?”

Jordan frowned in confusion. “But why did she take this risk? Isn’t she supposed to marry Joseph soon? Could it be that…. Joseph doesn’t want to wed her? Is he making her do this?”

“Who knows, perhaps she wed a white rose and developed a fondness for some red rose. I have liecome a mosquito’s meal, and Grace can’t guarantee that she won’t become a sticky mess

“Joseph is an inconstant person, so it’s not unexpected for him to leave anyone behind.”

“That’s true, but I still hope they can tie the knot without any further issues and live happily ever after. Let’s not hurt else again!”

Jordan ground his teeth in anger and asked, “Young miss, who do you think dispatched the individual who assaulted you tonight? Aubree? She is still at Second Young Master’s residence. She wouldn’t have the opportunity to organize these

matters.”

“That person is Chinese.”

Chloe’s eyes gradually darkened. “What’s more, he’s a martial artist, his fists and feet like the wild techniques of the underground boxing ring, not formulaic but lethal strikes.”

“Aubree didn’t have the opportunity to act. Skyler didn’t have the privilege of knowing someone like this. Only Grace had this fortune.

“She had resided in Nialzuct for three years, and her second brother had conducted an investigation into her. Her social connections were highly intricate; she had been involved with numerous men. It was conceivable that such a naive yet highly evolved carbon-based being could be utilized by her.”

Jordan’s eyes trembled as he felt the Eldest Young Lady’s analysis to be very reasonable.

“It’s no use speculating why the man attacked me. Go ask him tomorrow and you’ll replace out.”

Chloe suddenly had a thought and leaned forward. “Just to make sure, you didn’t tell my big brother anything, did you?”

“How could I not comply with your instructions? I didn’t say a single thing to President Thorp,” Jordan sighed in résignation.

“Phew. That’s good”

Before she had hushed speaking, her phone rang.

On the screen, the two words “big brother made Chloe’s hair stand on end, and her pupils contracted.

Grabbing the phone hurriedly, she dared not pick it up.

Jordan’s phone rang again immediately, and he dared not ignore it.

“President Thorp,” he said, trying to steady his voice, “you’re searching for me.”

“Let Chloe be the one to answer the phone.”

Jordan didn’t switch on the speaker, yet Oscar’s voice was as hushed as the sound of a car door being unlocked, causing

Chloe’s eyelids to flutter!

“First, the First Miss has dozed off. President Thorp, you observe…

Jordan, you are becoming increasingly promising. Are you two now conspiring to deceive me?

“Oscar rarely became angry. But when he did, it was a real deterrent. Ill say it again: Let Chloe answer the phone. Otherwise, come sunrise, you won’t be the First Miss’s secretary anymore!”

Chloe’s heart pounded like a drum as she nervously took the phone and held it close to her ear, her voice trembling yet soft,

and sweet.

‘Big Brother is watching you”

Oscar inhaled deeply, as if trying to contain some kind of longing, and spoke in a hushed tone, “Chloe, come out, I have something I need to ask you.”

Chloe, her heart perturbed, walked out of the villa.

Oscar stood gloomily in front of the black Aston Martin, illuminated by the dim light of the street lamp.

The grey, elegant suit was strict and solemn, and under the lamp’s shadow, his long legs were awe-inspiring and the extreme lines, evoking fantasies in people.

Chloe’s heart flustered like a little ghost upon seeing her beautiful big brother, as if she were meeting the King of Hell.

“Big brother…” She sauntered in front of Oscar, her checks flushed as she puckered her lips.

“The wind is chilly in the evening. Let’s chat in the car.”

Without a word, Oscar removed his suit jacket and draped it around Chloe’s slender frame, then gently guided her into the

car.

The siblings sat in the back row, and Oscar finally couldn’t take it anymore. He grabbed her shoulder and asked anxiously, “That killer, where did he hurt you?!

“Arm…”

Chloe, lowering her eyelids in shame, felt like a child who had made a mistake, daring not to lie again.

Oscar’s handsome face was deathly pale, trembling as he reached for her slender arm and carefully peeled back her sleeve.

The white gauze entered his eyes, causing his eye sockets to instantly redden!

“It’s alright, big brother. It didn’t do any damage to my bones and muscles, and the pain has gone away now” Chloe was anxious that her big brother would be concerned, so she quickly clarified.

Oscar slid her sleeve back down and clasped her cool little hand.

Chloe was held tightly by her elder brother until her fingers were pale and flushed, and she hung her head in shame and remorse. “Big brother, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have kept it from you… But I think I can handle this on my own. I just… don’t. want you to worry about me.”

After breaking the silence, Oscar’s eyes turned red and he uttered, word for word, “If he has harmed my sister, he must be put to death.”

Chloe’s pupils constricted and her heart constricted.

The big brother before her had been standing on the ground for so long, but at this moment, it was as if he had transformed into the powerful King of the Dark Forces, the King of the Night, revered by tens of thousands of people – the War God.

‘Big bro. I understand you’re trying to help me let out my frustration, but you promised me.”

Chloe bugged him tightly and rubbed her delicate cheeks against his chest. “Now that you’re back, let’s start fresh. We can’t

go back to what happened before.”

“That guy is just a puppet. What good would it do to turn him to dust? The real culprit is still out there!”

“Our Thorp family has always been adept at seizing opportunities. We have such a great advantage in our grasp. If we don’t make the most of it, wouldn’t it be a waste of this ‘big gift’ that they have bestowed. upon us?”

Oscar’s killing intent slowly faded away as he took a deep breath and extended his arm to the passenger seat. He grabbed a leather pouch and offered it to Chloe.

“Open it up and have a peek.”

Chloe blinked her eyes and withdrew the document. Instantly, she was taken aback. “This is…”

“Jordan informed me about that man ages ago. He was more eager than you to discover the mastermind behind the scenes, so he took a short cut and requested my assistance.”

“It’s just that he didn’t mention your injury to me. Heh, he really knows how to dodge the serious and the trivial!” Oscar held back his rage.

Jordan, that was unable to manage the door, should just changed his name to Big Mouthed Jordan!

“I was the one who advised him not to speak. He’s in a tough spot. Don’t hold it against him. Even though Chloe was angry inside, Jordan was still part of her team, so she had to stand up for him.

“If it happens again, I will make him to return and live in ease as the third young master of the Stewart family. No one can impede it.” President Oscar glared at him with a murderous expression that was terrifying.

Chloe curled her lips silently, like a quail.

The first lady was unafraid of Stefan, but when her big brother became angry, she transformed into a white rabbit, instantly becoming very

obedient.

Chloe scrutinized the information of the strange man intently.

Suddenly, her beautiful eyes widened and she exclaimed, “It’s him?!”
