Chapter 199 Do You Have Any Thoughts About Her?
Chloe felt helpless as she insisted on meeting Michael.
1/4
Chloe wanted to refuse outright but worried that doing so might upset Wendy.
Although Madeline had never been particularly kind to Wendy, Wendy was a sentimental person who still saw Madeline as her younger sister.
It would not be good if I did not give Madeline some face.
"I will call him first to see if he is busy."
In the end, Chloe had to compromise, thinking that Michael must be swamped preparing for their trip to the Mythica and probably would not have time for dinner.
She dialed his number, and he picked up quickly.
"Hey, Michael..."
Before Chloe could finish her words, Madeline snatched the phone out of her hand.
Chloe could only watch as Madeline took over the call.

"Hello, is this Mr. Shawn? I am Madeline. I visited Wendy in the hospital today and wanted to have dinner with Chloe. Since you're married to Chloe, it is only proper that we meet, what do you think?" Chloe could not hear Michael's response, but Madeline's
beaming face told her everything she needed to know. Of course, he would agree.
When Madeline handed the phone back, she was visibly pleased.
"I have already booked the restaurant. We can head straight there."
For the next hour, Chloe sat in the ward listening to Wendy chatting with Madeline.
Madeline took off a gold bracelet from her wrist just after Wendy complimented it.
"If you like it, I will give it to you. My husband loves buying me these things. I keep telling him I cannot wear them all, but he
insists."
Chloe lowered her eyes and listened quietly, with a mocking smile.
"Chloe, do you think this bracelet is beautiful?" Wendy asked, showing it to her. Chloe smiled warmly..
"Mom, gold prices are pretty low right now, just over 700 dollars per ounce. If you like gold jewelry, I can bring you some Chapter 199 Do You Have Any Thoughts Ab...

next time. It is not right to take this one since it was a gift from someone else."
Wendy nodded thoughtfully and returned the bracelet.
"Is the gold prices really over 700 dollars per ounce now?"
"Yes, and this bracelet is so thin, it is only worth thousand dollars."
Chloe looked at the bracelet in Madeline's hand and said the first unpleasant words of the day.
Madeline was momentarily stunned, clutching the bracelet as if it had suddenly become uncomfortable.
She then quickly changed the subject.
"It is about time we head out for dinner!"
Madeline stood up
from her chair and looked at Wendy
apologetically.
"Chloe, you are not feeling well. It is best if you to stay here. I will come back after meeting Michael to discuss things."
Chloe thought, "Discuss things?
What to discuss?"
Chloe thought she was strange, but she did not ask.

On the way to the restaurant, Madeline bombarded Chloe with questions about Michael.
"Chloe, I looked up information online before, saying that the Shawn family's company is a leading enterprise here, making billions of dollars in profit each year. Is that true?"
For people of Madeline's class, earning even a million dollars in a year would be a stretch. The thought of billions seemed unimaginable to her.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
"Mom, the Shawn family has always been in the upper echelons. Billion dollars are nothing to them," Maya interjected as if scoffing at Madeline's lack of awareness.
