Chapter 65 The Man With the Ghost Mask
Everyone was stunned, their mouths agape.
Chloe was in a daze for several seconds before she reacted.
She hurriedly went to help Tyler, who was apologizing on the ground, and anxiously said, "Mr. Anderson, what are you doing? Get up."
"Chloe, please forgive me and my useless nephew," Tyler pleaded.
Larry suddenly said, "He seems to want Chloe to accompany him for three days."
"What?" Upon hearing this, Tyler flew into a rage.
He stood up in anger, looking around for something. When he saw a wooden chair, he grabbed it and smashed it towards Zach's lower body.
The clothing store echoed with heart-wrenching screams.
Blood instantly pooled in Zach's crotch.
He passed out from the pain!
Lola, her face covered in blood, was pale with fright, continuously retreating and crying.
The others also took a few steps back in fear, all equally shocked.
Tyler was too ruthless!
With that smash, Zach's manhood was probably ruined!
After smashing, Tyler knelt on the ground again. "Chloe, look, aren't you angry anymore?"
Chloe was also pale with fright, instinctively retreating. Clutching Larry's hand, she glanced at him, "Larry, this..."
Larry looked innocent and said, "Why are you looking at me? He's not asking for my forgiveness. Chloe, do you know some big shot?"
"Me?" Chloe was a bit shocked.
She didn't know any.
However, she did think of one person.
That was the last time at the top floor of the Sunset City Hotel, during the auction held by the Hall family.
Chloe was captured by Frederick and had her face slashed. Just when she was in despair, a man wearing a ghost mask appeared and saved her.
'Could it be him?' Chloe was slightly lost in thought.
Then she shook her head slightly, denying her thoughts.
She knew the man in the ghost mask had killed Kevin of the Hall family, then killed Frederick, and subsequently killed the heads of the other three major families. But the man in the ghost mask had already been captured by Free King and executed.
However, besides this person, she didn't seem to know any other powerful figures, and she didn't really know the man in the ghost mask either.
In the past ten years, she hadn't left her home, so it was impossible for her to know any big shots.
'Could it be Larry?' Chloe thought.
She looked at him with doubt.
Then Chloe denied her thoughts again.
It couldn't be Larry. Although he used to be a high-ranking official in Southwild, he had committed a crime, been tried, and was expelled from the military.
Seeing Chloe not speaking for a long time, Tyler continued to kneel on the ground and apologize.
Chloe couldn't figure it out and didn't think much about it. She hurriedly helped Tyler up and said, "Mr. Anderson, he's bleeding so much, quickly take him to the hospital."
"Thank you, Chloe, for forgiving me." Tyler was overjoyed, finally obtaining forgiveness.
Otherwise, the Anderson family would be finished.
Tyler stood up and glanced at Larry.
At a glance, he couldn't help but tremble, almost falling to the ground.
Larry said, "Tyler, didn't you hear Chloe say to take him to the hospital quickly? Also, this beating has nothing to do with Chloe. Don't call the police to arrest Chloe."
"Yes, I did it. It has absolutely nothing to do with Chloe," saying this, Tyler made a phone call.
Soon, a few people came and took away the unconscious Zach and the blood-covered, shocked Lola.
"Do we still need to pay for the clothes?" Larry looked at Mia, the clothing store manager, who was still standing aside.
Mia came to her senses, trembling all over, and hurriedly said, "No, no need."
Even Tyler had apologized and admitted his mistake, she didn't dare!
And the others in the store had already informed the boss about this.
The owner of this high-end clothing store was Kelly.
Although she was the chairman of the Everlife Group, a family business, Kelly was just helping to manage it.
Besides that, Chloe had many side businesses.
This store was one of them.
When Kelly heard that Chloe and Larry were causing trouble in the store, she quickly rushed over from the company.
Larry looked at Caleb and the others who were still standing aside, frowned, and said, "Your master has left. Do you still want to make a move on me?"
Caleb trembled all over, bent over in fear, and kept apologizing, "Sorry, I'll leave right away."
After saying that, he didn't stay any longer and quickly left with his men.
Chloe took a deep breath.
It was too surreal!
All of this was really too incredible!
At that moment, a Ferrari sports car stopped at the entrance.
A tall and stunning woman with an ethereal presence, dressed in a white blouse and a black pencil skirt, walked in.
The sound of her high heels clicking against the floor was crisp and clear.
"Ms. Moore." As Kelly walked in, the store's sales associates all looked at her with respect.
Mia also respectfully called out, "Ms. Moore."
Kelly walked in, glanced at Larry, and finally fixed her gaze on Chloe. She then put on a friendly demeanor, took Chloe's hand, and smiled. "Chloe, is it really you?"
Chloe was stunned.
For a moment, she didn't recognize the beautiful woman in front of her.
"Chloe, it's me, Kelly. Back in school, during Professor Derek's lecture, you made a comment that received applause from everyone. I was there at the time."
Chloe recalled and it seemed there was indeed such an incident. But she didn't know Kelly.
She said, "You are Kelly who sent me the invitation, the chairman of the Everlife Group?"
"Yes," Kelly held Chloe's hand and said, "I heard about what happened. I'll immediately fire this disrespectful sales associate. You came to buy clothes, right? Come, I'll take you to the second floor and personally help you choose."
Chloe was flattered.
'Why is the chairman of the Everlife Group being so kind to me?' she was lost in thought.
It seemed that they were close friends who shared everything.
Chloe glanced at Larry.
He smiled and said, "Go ahead."
With his permission, Chloe nodded and followed Kelly to the second floor.
The second floor sold luxury items, even more expensive than those on the first floor, with each dress costing over ten thousand dollars. Each one was so dazzling and brilliant.
Chloe, who studied fashion design, was immediately captivated by the beautiful dresses and gowns. But she didn't lose her composure. Looking at the graceful and equally beautiful Kelly beside her, Chloe couldn't help but ask, "Ms. Moore, I don't know you. Why did you send me an invitation and treat me so warmly? Please tell me honestly who asked you to do this?"
Kelly smiled.
It seemed Chloe didn't know Larry's identity.
Since she didn't know, Kelly didn't reveal the truth. "Why are you asking such things? I've always admired you. You're a genius, involved in so many fields."
Chloe asked again, "Is it Larry? Or the man with the mask?"
Among the people she knew, only these two seemed capable of such things. But she wasn't sure who it was.
She had once suspected it was Larry. But it was just a suspicion.
"The man with the mask?" Kelly was taken aback, then remembered the ghost mask man who had caused a stir recently.
Moreover, Kelly had heard that this ghost mask man had saved Chloe at the Hall family auction and killed Frederick in public.
Thinking of how the Ella Group and Free King had helped Larry handle the aftermath, Kelly suddenly guessed something.
The man in the ghost mask was Black Dragon, who was indeed Larry.
Otherwise, after causing so much trouble, it wouldn't make sense for Free King to execute a masked man after taking over.
It must have been Free King helping Larry handle the aftermath, reducing external rumors, and finding a scapegoat.
Thinking of this, Kelly smiled.
'What exactly is this Black Dragon planning?' she thought.
"Chloe, don't you know the identity of the ghost mask man?" Kelly asked.
"I don't know," Chloe replied.
Kelly whispered in her ear, "He is the person you saved from the Bennett family fire ten years ago. This person now has great power. You know about the Four Great Families, right? He came back for revenge."
Chloe was shocked.
'The person I saved ten years ago?' she pondered.
Chloe knew she had saved someone from the Bennett family villa fire. But she didn't know who she had saved, nor did she know about the Bennett family's feud with the Four Great Families.
"Who is he? Could it be... Larry?" Chloe thought of Larry also having the last name Bennett and couldn't help but connect the dots.
Kelly tapped Chloe on the forehead. "You're overthinking it. Larry is just a loser. He couldn't have such power."
