Chapter 73 The Higher-ups Are Angry
She thought, 'Chloe is so beautiful, even more elegant than those superstars on TV. She definitely has what it takes to become a wealthy man's wife.
'She can't be with Larry, who stays home all day as a househusband.
'I heard that many big shots would attend today's birthday party for Kelly.
'They are all company presidents.
'With Chloe's current looks, she could totally match those super-rich men.'
She pulled Chloe aside and whispered, "Chloe, the people going to the Sunset City Hotel today are real tycoons. I heard Mr. Harper from Pavilion Restaurant will be there. This is your chance, try to seduce him."
"Mom..." Chloe looked displeased. "What are you talking about? I'm married. I can't do such shameless things."
Maria glanced at Larry and commanded, "Larry, you stay home today. You can't go anywhere."
In her eyes, Larry attending the party would only embarrass Chloe.
If he went, those big shots would think Chloe was unclean.
"Mom..." Chloe said with a face full of grievance, "You can't do this."
Chloe had thought Maria had changed, that she was no longer greedy for money. But it only took a day or two for her to revert to her old ways.
"Chloe, I'm doing this for your own good. Look at your current looks and temperament, and then look at Larry. He doesn't deserve you. He can't buy you such beautiful clothes or jewelry."
Maria didn't want to break up Chloe and Larry, but she thought he really didn't deserve Chloe.
Chloe wanted to say that Larry had money, but in the end, she didn't. She angrily said, "If Larry doesn't go, I won't go either."
"You..." Maria was furious and scolded, "Why don't you listen to advice? I'm doing this for your own good."
"I know my own business."
"You'll regret it," Maria said with a look of frustration.
"Larry, let's go." Chloe ignored Maria and pulled Larry out the door.
After leaving the house, Chloe looked apologetic. "Larry, my mom is just like that. Don't mind her. No matter what I become, I'm still your wife."
Larry nodded, not caring much about it.
The two went out together.
Larry still rode his electric bike, taking Chloe to the Sunset City Hotel.
Chloe's dress was quite long. She held it up, sitting in the back, with one hand around Larry.
This scene caught the attention of many passersby.
"What?"
"Am I seeing things?"
"Isn't that a celebrity? She's so beautiful."
"Her outfit looks expensive. Why is she on an electric bike?"
Passersby kept discussing, and some even took out their phones to capture the moment and upload it to their WhatsApp stories.
Larry didn't care about the passersby's comments at all.
After riding for half an hour, they finally arrived at the entrance of the Sunset City Hotel.
The parking lot at the entrance was filled with luxury cars.
Those big shots kept arriving.
A graceful woman was standing at the entrance.
She was today's main character, Kelly, the chairman of the Everlife Group.
She had been waiting at the entrance, looking around, but she hadn't seen Larry arrive.
Some big shots came in one after another, and she greeted them symbolically.
Soon, an electric bike arrived.
The rider was a man in his thirties, dressed plainly, with an ordinary appearance that wouldn't attract any attention in a crowd. But the person he brought caught a lot of attention.
She was like an angel!
Many eyes turned to Larry and Chloe, who had arrived on the bike.
"Isn't that Chloe?"
"Yes, it's Chloe from the Lewis family, who was expelled by Victor."
"Is Chloe also attending Kelly's birthday party?"
"I heard Kelly invited Chloe's entire class."
"Apparently, it was mainly to invite Michael, so she invited the whole class."
"Is it Michael Williams, the son of Tom, the chairman of Lirena Pharmaceuticals?"
"Yes, Michael has been pursuing Ms. Moore."
"I see. But why is Larry here too?"
As Larry and Chloe arrived, people started gossiping.
At that moment, a Lamborghini drove up and parked precisely in a spot.
A handsome man in a white suit got out of the car.
"Michael is here."
At the hotel entrance, Kelly had been waiting for Larry.
Seeing Larry arrive on an electric bike with Chloe, she immediately walked over.
Kelly was wearing a black low-cut dress today, with golden wavy hair, exuding the charm of a mature urban woman.
Michael walked over. Thinking Kelly had come out to greet him, he looked happy and quickly stepped forward, a charming smile.
Michael said, "Kelly, you actually came to greet me personally. I'm so honored."
Kelly frowned and glanced at him.
"So Ms. Moore was waiting for Michael."
"Of course, Chloe's classmates were invited because of Michael."
Many people suddenly understood.
Hearing the discussions around him, Michael felt very dignified.
He arrogantly thought that his pursuit had moved Kelly, and she was going to agree to be his girlfriend at the birthday party.
He confidently reached out to hold Kelly's hand.
At this moment, Larry had parked the electric bike and was walking over with Chloe.
"Kelly," Chloe greeted generously.
Yesterday, she had spent an afternoon shopping with Kelly and had become good friends.
Kelly bypassed Michael and came to Chloe, praising, "Chloe, I told you this dress suits you. You look so beautiful. With your figure and looks, even I, as a woman, am envious. I'm almost in love with you. What should I do?"
"Chloe?" Michael's eyes lit up when he saw Chloe, who was even more beautiful than Kelly.
Michael knew about Chloe.
He had heard that Chloe had regained her looks. But recently, Michael had been focused on Kelly and hadn't paid attention to the rumors. Now, seeing Chloe in person, he couldn't take his eyes off her.
He walked over and introduced himself, "Chloe, do you remember me? I'm Michael."
"Michael, nice to meet you." Chloe immediately reached out to shake hands with Michael.
However, Larry pulled Chloe's hand back.
Michael had already extended his hand, but Chloe's hand was pulled back. He looked at Larry and raised an eyebrow. "And who are you?"
Chloe introduced, "Michael, this is my husband, Larry."
Michael scrutinized Larry from head to toe.
There was nothing impressive about him, and Michael gave a mocking smile. "So this is the infamous son-in-law of Sunset City, the useless Larry, who even borrowed a car to show off in the military district. I heard the higher-ups were furious, and Larry will soon be punished. He might spend the rest of his life in prison, right?"
Chloe had heard these rumors too.
However, she didn't expect it to be so serious.
Shee exclaimed, "Is it really that serious?"
