The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Chapter 1613

As for all the online rumors, Chloe chose to turn a blind eye, offering no explanations. Occasionally, when she did venture to the office, she would invariably be ambushed by a gaggle of journalists. Their questions were always about the online rumors, doggedly pressing Chloe for an explanation

“Is it true that you’ve ceased promoting your latest series? Have you decided to give up on it?”

“And what about the embroidery designs? Do you really have no intention of defending yourself?”

“Do you think that just because people are dead, there’s no one left to challenge you?”

Surrounded by her bodyguards. Chloe distilled the journalists‘ key points and responded with an air of indifference.c2

“Of course, the series will continue. As for the embroidery designs, I’ve made it clear- they are the work of Elizabeth. I see no need to defend myself. And as for the ‘dead can’t argue comment.”

Chloe paused, her gaze easily landing on the journalist who had made the remark. Her icy, piercing stare caused the journalist to break out in a cold sweat

“You must think twice before you speak. You’ll pay for what you said today.” Having said this, she slowly withdrew her gaze, her eyes devoid of anything but coldness.

“Mind your words, remember your professional ethics, and do your job properly. Don’t accidentally lose your work and then realize what regret truly means

The journalists pursed their lips, wearing expressions of discontent. “Are you threatening us? Using your power to shut us up?”

“It’s not a threat It’s advice. And Chloe spoke with an expressionless face, then raised an eyebrow and subtly curled her lips. “Power is indeed a wonderful thing. That’s why you have to think carefully before you provoke someone who is much more powerful than you.”

The journalists faces immediately turned a shade paler.

Chloe was the kind of person who wasn’t afraid to speak her mind. Everyone understood the reality of the situation. Some tactics might be frowned upon, but they were a fact of life. Money and power were indeed wonderful things. Everyone who claimed that money couldn’t buy everything in the world knew that without money, they couldn’t buy anything at all. Everyone hated the abuse of power, but only because they didn’t have power themselves
