Chapter 311 Still Useful
Larry encountered some relationship troubles.
He had never been in a relationship before and didn't know how to handle his emotional issues.
Abigail also had work and didn't have time to mess around with Larry.
She directly found many relationship analysts for Larry.
Larry waited in the office.
Meanwhile, Chloe also went to the Lewis family's mansion.
In the mansion, the Lewis family members were gathered.
The Lewis family members gathered together.
Victor sat on the sofa, smoking a cigarette, looking at everyone, and said:
"Xerxes from the North has sent out many invitations, inviting the elites of Sunset City to attend Esmeralda's birthday party. Do you know the Vale family from the North? They are a truly super family, far superior to the Harmony Alliance Circle family."
"I called everyone here to ask if any of you have connections to get an invitation."
"Now that Chloe is also a renowned doctor in Sunset City, our Lewis family's reputation has improved. If we can attend this birthday party, our influence in Sunset City will grow even more."
"Dad, this might be a bit difficult," Harry said with a troubled expression. "This is Xerxes we're talking about. Our Lewis family is just a second-rate family; how could we get an invitation?"
"I have one," Maria said, taking out an invitation and waving it in front of everyone.
The Lewis family members' eyes all focused on Maria.
Victor's face lit up with excitement, and he couldn't help but ask, "Where did this come from?"
Maria hesitated slightly and said, "Xerxes personally delivered it."
Before she could finish her sentence, Victor burst into excited laughter, "I knew it! With Chloe's current fame, there's no way Xerxes wouldn't send an invitation to Chloe, and he even delivered it personally. Chloe has truly brought honor to the Lewis family."
Chloe looked embarrassed and explained, "Grandpa, this wasn't sent to me."
"Not to you?" Victor was puzzled.
The Lewis family members also looked at Chloe.
Maria smiled and said, "It was sent to Larry. Larry is Chloe's husband, so it counts as being for Chloe."
"Larry?" Hearing this name, Victor frowned.
The other Lewis family members had stern expressions.
Oscar sneered, "Maria, you must be joking. Why Larry? This is Xerxes we're talking about, a big shot from the North with assets greater than the combined wealth of the Five-State Business Alliance."
Maria explained, "Actually, it's like this: last time, Larry saved Xerxes' daughter. It was also Xerxes who helped, and that's why they spared the Lewis family. Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to return to this mansion now."
"Moreover, Xerxes said he would give half of his assets to Larry."
"What?"
The Lewis family members exclaimed.
"Half of his assets?"
"Xerxes' half assets, how much is that?"
"Conservatively estimated, it's over 500 billion dollars."
The Lewis family members were shocked and then became excited.
Victor was also moved, looked at Chloe, and asked, "Chloe, where is Larry?"
"I don't know," Chloe said with a stern face.
The Lewis family members' attitudes changed too quickly. They had previously urged her to pursue Black Dragon and mess around with Black Dragon, and now they wanted her to reconcile with Larry. They really treated her as a tool for making money.
Half of the Vale family's assets were indeed terrifying.
If this were true, the Lewis family could rise and become a true wealthy family, even surpassing the Harmony Alliance Circle family.
Victor asked, "Maria, Chloe, is this true? Did Xerxes really say he would give half of his assets to Larry?"
Before the two could speak, Julia interrupted, "Grandpa, it's true. I was there at the time. Xerxes said it himself. He even called Larry his benefactor and showed great respect for him. At first, I thought Larry had just found some random person on the street to put on a show for Chloe."
Victor nodded while smoking, "If this is true, then we really can't give up on Larry."
He looked at Chloe and instructed, "Chloe, don't divorce Larry yet. Reconcile with him first. Once Xerxes transfers the assets to him, we'll move the money over, and then you can divorce him."
"Good idea," Maria laughed. "Dad, that's exactly what I was thinking. Larry still has some value. Even if we want a divorce, we need to get that 500 billion dollars first. Why should he have it?"
"Exactly, Chloe, the Lewis family's fortune depends on you."
"Chloe, call Larry right away."
"Just pretend to be with him for now."
"Pretend? Larry is already the Lewis family's son-in-law. What's his is the Lewis family's."
The Lewis family members all chimed in.
Chloe couldn't take it anymore.
"Even if I stay with Larry and he gets half of Xerxes' assets, those assets would be mine, not yours."
Chloe said coldly.
With that, she stood up and walked out.
"Chloe!"
Maria chased after her and grabbed her, asking, "Where are you going?"
"It's too stuffy inside. I'm going for a walk."
Chloe sighed slightly and walked out of the Lewis family mansion.
As she walked outside, she reflected on her recent experiences and felt dazed.
500 billion dollars?
Who would have thought that a big shot from the North, Xerxes, would give half of his assets to Larry?
What does 500 billion dollars even mean?
She didn't know.
But she knew that if she had that 500 billion dollars, she wouldn't have to worry about her future life.
At that moment, she also considered staying with Larry.
There were many reasons to stay with Larry.
First, Larry was indeed good to her. It was Larry who cured her, and she wouldn't be where she was today without him.
Second, Black Dragon had Abigail now, and she couldn't compete with Abigail for a man.
Third, Larry was about to get 500 billion dollars.
Larry's money would be her money.
If Larry got 500 billion dollars, it would be like she got 500 billion dollars.
She took out her phone, intending to call Larry.
But thinking about her previous attitude towards Larry, she felt embarrassed.
She sighed deeply.
She still didn't dare to call Larry and went straight home, lying on her bed out of boredom.
Meanwhile, at the Epoch Group.
In the chairman's office.
Over twenty people stood in the large office.
"Chairman, hello, I am a relationship analyst from a certain TV station. I understand the minds of women with various personalities."
"Chairman, hello, in the past three years, I have successfully helped over 300 single people pursue the girls they liked. I specialize in creating romance and setting up surprises."
"Chairman, hello, I can transform an ordinary person into a true high-society individual."
As this person spoke, he realized he had misspoken and quickly corrected himself, "Of course, the chairman doesn't need any transformation, but under my design, the chairman will fully showcase his charm, and any woman will be deeply attracted to you."
These relationship experts and emotional analysts, invited by Abigail, introduced themselves one by one.
Larry sat on the sofa, looking at the twenty-plus people in front of him, and said, "All of you stay. As long as you can help me save this marriage, you will be well rewarded."
Hearing this, these people were very happy.
"Thank you, Chairman."
