The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Chapter 888

She turned her head to look at Katie on her side, letting out a soft chuckle. Seemed like she’d just scored an ugly duckling.

Katie felt uneasy under Chloe’s gaze, like a poor rabbit under a fox’s stare.

Chloe exchanged contact info with Miles, and told him to come over the day after tomorrow to style up Katie.

Even after getting into the car, Katie felt dazed and confused.

“Why… why would you help me like this?” Katie finally found her voice, feeling anxious.

Chloe glanced at her, “I’m just helping myself.”

“Huh?”

Chloe sighed, smiling, “Someone wants to make a fool out of me using you. Of course, I won’t let her have her way.”

“You’re talking about… the Alonso family’s daughter? How did she…”

“My ex–fiancé, was snatched away by my sister…”

Katie was taken aback.

Chloe smiled, her cold gaze fixed ahead, her voice steady, “Running into your sister at the mall today was just a play she staged to upset me.”

“…Then why must I attend the banquet the day after tomorrow?”

“Because I want her to taste what it feels like to be upset.”

Katie’s face darkened, “You know, you’re not very likable when you talk like this.“.
