A Billion-Rich Woman Was Chased by Her EX-Husband
Chapter 298

Chapter 298

Chloe did not feel embarrassed. If she was embarrassed, she was looking down on Jerome.

She was clear on who she liked and hated, but she would never say who she looked down on and who she looked down on. Her upbringing did not teach her to do so.

“It doesn’t matter. Since the people are not allowed to enter, let’s wait until it is open. Let’s go first.”

“If you want to ride a horse, you can go to my family’s horse farm. It’s the, same.” Chloe did not want to cause trouble for Jerome.

Just as she was about to turn around and leave, Jerome grabbed her hand and slowly clenched it. “Chloe, don’t go. We have to go in tonight.”

Chloe’s fingertips trembled and he instinctively wanted to pull out his hand, but he could not.

Jerome’s tone was very strong.

-From the time she met him again until now, this was the first time she

saw him show his domineering side.

The two bodyguards looked at each other and said coldly, “You should leave quickly. Otherwise, don’t blame us for being impolite. Second Young Master of Xavier family is inside to receive guests. Idiotic people are not allowed to go in and disturb him!”

Chloe rolled her eyes.

Idiotic people? They probably haven’t brushed their teeth. Otherwise, they can’t be so arrogant.

“Oh, I see.”

“What if I insist on going in?” Jerome asked calmly.

“Are you looking for trouble?”

One of the bodyguards glared at him and tried to push him.

Unexpectedly, his hand didn’t even touch the man’s clothes. He suddenly felt a flash in front of his eyes, and then his arm made a “ah” sound,

followed by a scream!

Chloe’s eyes trembled, and he watched the bodyguard fall over his shoulder and heavily fell to the ground by Jerome, unable to get up!

Seeing this, the other was furious and also rushed up.

“Ah!” Painful X2, broken bone X2.

“Chloe, let’s go.” Jerome took out a white silk handkerchief from his bosom and carefully wiped his hands. He spoke to Chloe in a gentle

voice.

His eyes were filled with the air of a refined scholar, as if the rough and rough man from before had nothing to do with him.

Chloe: “…”

Jerome bit her lower lip, the corners of her eyes were gentle, and she went forward to hold her hand again, walking forward without looking at her.

“Wait… wait! Who… are you” The bodyguard on the ground asked with a painful expression.

“My surname is Xavier,” Jerome said with a smile.

The two bodyguards collapsed to the ground, their faces pale with fright.

On the other side, Joseph, who could not contact Chloe, was anxious and restless in the car.

“Mr. Sawle, can’t you contact Mrs. Sawle?” Max was also anxious.

“Yes. In the past, although she hated me, she would never ignore my call.”

“Max, did I do something wrong to make her unhappy again?” The man clenched his cell phone tightly. His palms were so nervous that they were sweating.

After my head was injured, my memory has been a little poor recently. Can you help me recall what I said wrong and what I did wrong?

Looking at the president’s anxious look, the big boss who was talking and laughing in the business field was simply not a person!

“Er… You haven’t seen Mrs. Sawle in these days, and you have no chance to provoke her?”

“Eh? Could it be that Mrs. Sawle had a dream last night and dreamed about the blocked areas that you filled up for her in the past. So when she woke up, she became angrier, so she ignored you?”

Joseph was speechless. “… A dream?”

Max put on an “experienced” expression. “In the past, when I was in

277

13:08

college, I had a girlfriend. She scolded me all the time. One day, she dreamed that I had an affair. The next day, she quarreled with me for a whole day! Soon after, we separated!”

“Do you think my Chloe is the kind of woman you know?” Joseph asked coldly.

Only then did Max realize that he had said the wrong thing. His forehead was full of cold sweat. He lowered his head and bowed. “This servant doesn’t dare! Your Majesty, please calm down!”

Joseph’s face was full of worry. He held his forehead and sighed.

How could he care about his dreams?

However, he was indeed a beast in the past, and he probably left a shadow in Chloe’s heart.

“Why don’t you try and contact President Thorp? Didn’t we hear that Mrs. Sawle went back to Sea Gate’s hometown? Then your brother-in-law must know Mrs. Sawle’s whereabouts!” Max thought of a good idea.

“I am the president of Sawle Group. I can’t even replace a single person, and I have to call her family?” Joseph glanced at him coldly.

-“What if Oscar doesn’t know? Do I have to call all her brothers? Go out,

don’t be an eyesore.”

“Yes, yes, yes… This servant will take his leave!”

Max was well aware that his master was in a bad mood and quietly retreated outside the door.

As soon as the door closed, Joseph picked up his phone and dialed Oscar’s number.

“Mr. Sawle, are your injuries better?” Oscar’s tone was calm, and no other emotions could be heard.

“President Thorp, Chloe… Are you with her?” There was a hint of urgency in Joseph’s voice.

“Chloe isn’t with me. Why? Can’t Mr. Sawle contact my sister?”

“She didn’t pick up my call. I called her several times, but she didn’t pick up.”

“Oh, that’s normal.”

Joseph: “…”

||

“I don’t know where Chloe is either. She is no longer a child. There is no need to report everything to me in detail. Back then, for you, she did not

13:08

contact her family for a few years.”

“For me, she didn’t contact family for years. Why?” Joseph was shocked and asked sharply.

“Is Mr. Sawle looking for Chloe for an urgent matter? Is your head not feeling well?” Oscar asked.

“No… I’m just worried about her.”

“Don’t worry. Chloe has always known how to avoid danger and protect herself. When she wants to replace you, she will naturally appear. If you can’t replace her, there is only one possibility – she doesn’t want to see you for the time being.”

When Joseph heard this, the soft flesh of his heart seemed to be pricked by a very thin needle. Although there was no blood immediately, the subtle pain spread endlessly in his body, from a headache to a foot.

After hanging up the phone, he fell into a state of loss and loss. His phone was drenched in sweat from his palms.

However, what Oscar had said just now caused a ripple in his heart.

She had not contacted her family for a few years. Coincidentally, he had the same life experience.

Then, where had she gone and done in the years she had run away from home? Why had he never heard her mention it?

After entering the horse track, Jerome was still holding Chloe’s hand. “Jerome? Jerome? Fourth Young Master!”

Chloe called out to him three times in a row before he snapped back to reality. “What?”

She pursed her delicate pink lips and gave him a hard look before lowering her long eyelashes to look at their hands.

“I’m sorry, Chloe. I was in a hurry just now, so… I’m sorry.”

Jerome’s eyes flickered, and she slowly loosened the softness in her palm.

The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.

They were adults. The man was unmarried, and the woman was not married. Moreover, she had already divorced once, so she was no longer a pure young girl who was about to bloom. It’s just to hold her hands. Therefore, Chloe took a deep breath and became serious, “Why didn’t

13:08[

you reveal your identity just now? If you made it clear, there wouldn’t be any misunderstanding, let alone making a move.”

“Chloe, do you think that if I reveal my identity, they can let me in?”

“I think they will only report to my second brother, and then I will still be shut out, and the result will be the same.”

Chloe didn’t ask further, and he was asking for trouble.

She had no intention of interfering in Xavier brothers’ fight, and that was not something an outsider like her could handle.

“Jerome, why did you bring me to the horse track? Riding a horse?”

“I’ll take you to see a horse. I guarantee that you will like it very much, very much.”

As he spoke, Jerome could not help but want to hold her hand.

He suddenly remembered her discomfort. His meridians were clearly separated, and his slender and clean hands were frozen in the air. His five fingers trembled and curled up.

Chloe’s heart also shrank with his fingertips.

-At this time, Jerome’s secretary ran over with a forehead full of sweat and

panting.

“Director Xavier! Not good!”

“What’s wrong?” Jerome frowned.

“You… The horse you gave to Miss Thorp… was led to the horse track by Second Young Master!”

Hearing this, Jerome pushed up his glasses. His eyes seemed to be on fire, and his expression was covered with a layer of dark frost.

On this side, Patt was leading a Ferghana Horse that had a perfect ratio, heroic appearance, and was completely golden in champagne.

“Second Young Master, this batch of horses of yours is very rare! I’ve only heard of them, but this is the first time I’ve seen them in my lifetime!”

“This horse is worth at least ten million, right”

“Ten million? That’s too little.”

Patt smiled, unable to hide his pride. He reached out his hand and stroked the Ferghana Horse’s fur. This is a specialty of Central Stein. The blood of this Ferghana Horse is pure, and the production is rare. This

13:08

one is at least a thousand 700 thousand dollars.

The guests all exclaimed in admiration and took out their mobile phones to take pictures of the BMW.

It wasn’t that they couldn’t afford to shell out $700,000; it was just that this expenditure, buying a luxury car, a mansion or a yacht would be reasonable. However, using this money to buy a horse was another matter altogether, probably a huge cash drain to maintain it. Such a lavish pet was a luxury that only large conglomerates like the Sawle Group, Xavy Group, and Thorp Group could reasonably afford.

“Come, come, come, help me. Let me see if this horse is strong when it runs!”

Patt rubbed his hands together and grabbed the saddle, eager to climb on the horse.

“Who told you to touch my things?”

Suddenly, a cold voice came from behind, scaring everyone present!

“Shit!”

Naturally, Patt was also frightened. His foot stepped on air, and he fell off the horse halfway.

Fortunately, the horse trainer was quick enough to catch him from below, but his appearance was still very miserable.

“Second Young Master, be careful!” The guests were concerned, and they could not help but want to laugh in their hearts.

Patt gritted his teeth and pushed away the horse tamer. His eyes seemed to hold a blade as he turned around fiercely.

A pair of outstanding figures walked over side by side. They were Jerome and Chloe. They were handsome, handsome, and beautiful. They were very eye-catching!

“Look! Who is that woman? She’s so pretty… so familiar!”

“She’s the daughter of the richest man in Sea Gate, Stefan! Chloe!”

“The man next to Miss Thorp is… Oh my god, they’re a perfect match!”

“I remember now! He’s the Fourth Young Master of Xavier family who just returned to the country! I didn’t expect Fourth Young Master of Xavier to be so close to Thorp family… His strength must be extraordinary!”

Seeing that the limelight he had saved up had been snatched away by

13:08

Jerome just like that, he was so angry that his mouth was smoking and his eyes were red!

Chloe didn’t pay much attention to Patt’s face that was like a chameleon.

She slightly opened her red lips and stared fixedly at the golden Ferghana Horse, letting out an infatuated sigh.

“So beautiful… so beautiful…”

Jerome turned his head and looked at Chloe, who was beside him with bright eyes and rosy cheeks like peach blossoms. He pursed his lips into a faint smile and his eyes were gentle.

“Fourth Brother, why are you here?” Patt stood up straight and patted the dust off his body with a fake smile.

“Second Brother, is my horse good? Is it so proud of you to show off with someone else’s things?”

“If you really want it, I can lend it to you. What do you mean by secretly taking it for yourself?” Jerome casually tilted his head.

“You…” Patt’s face alternated between red and white.

“However, even if you ask me, I won’t lend it to you.”
