Chapter 92 Chloe's Grievance
Helen was quite bold, practically pressing herself against Larry.
Her enchanting youthful fragrance filled the air, causing Larry to quickly shift his body.
His movement made Helen giggle, "Larry, are you shy? Rumor has it that you and Chloe haven't had sex yet. Could it be that you're still a virgin?"
Larry's face turned red.
He was indeed a virgin.
Ten years ago, he was only seventeen, just a high school graduate. Even though he had dated in high school, it was limited to just holding hands.
Ten years of military service meant endless special training, cold weapons, and the corpses of enemies.
Larry couldn't be bothered to argue with Helen. He took a few quick drags of his cigarette, tossed the butt into the trash can, and turned to go back inside.
When Chloe saw Larry sitting at the stairway and Helen holding onto Larry's arm, practically pressing herself against him, She ran away crying.
Back in her room, she burst into tears.
She thought, 'I thought Larry is a good man. I don't expect him to be like other men.
'He has just picked up Helen today, and the two are already into each other.'
There was a knock on the door.
Chloe quickly wiped her tears, took a few deep breaths to calm herself, and got up to open the door.
Larry walked in and asked with a smile, "What are you doing? Why did it take so long?"
However, Chloe didn't respond.
She walked straight to the computer, sat down, and stared blankly at the screen.
Larry didn't notice anything unusual.
He instinctively took out a blanket and laid it on the floor.
Seeing his actions, Chloe felt wronged.
She thought, 'He pretends to be a gentleman in front of me, while secretly getting involved with another woman, and that woman is my cousin Helen.'
Chloe shook her head, trying to dispel the chaotic thoughts in her mind, but she couldn't forget the scene of Helen intimately holding Larry, practically pressing herself against him.
That scene seemed to be etched in her mind, impossible to forget.
Chloe began to ponder, 'Could it be that because I don't let Larry touch me, he secretly has an improper relationship with another woman? Larry is a man, after all, and has needs.'
She thought it was her fault, which led Larry to secretly seek out another woman. But she was angry.
She thought, 'It's not that I don't let you touch me; it's you who voluntarily sleeps on the floor. I've hinted at it several times, but you remain indifferent.'
Thinking about this, Chloe felt a surge of anger.
At that moment, she thought about divorce.
Divorcing Larry to let him be with Helen.
"Larry..."
Lying on the blanket on the floor, Larry was deep in thought. Hearing the call, he snapped out of it and asked, "What's up?"
Chloe swiveled her chair, looking at Larry who had already sat up, and asked seriously, "What do you think of Helen?"
Larry was puzzled, unable to guess her intention.
He had spent ten years in the military, dealing with enemies, not women, and couldn't fathom a woman's mind. He instinctively nodded and said, "She's great."
When she heard this, Chloe's face showed disappointment.
She really wanted to save this marriage.
She remembered that after Larry married into her family, he took her to the Imperial Residence and cared for her meticulously.
He would coax her to sleep every night and take her out to enjoy the sun during the day.
She had never been so cared for and loved.
At that moment, she had already fallen in love with Larry, had already decided that Larry was the only man worth loving in her life.
She didn't expect that it hadn't been long before he became so intimate with another woman, and that woman was her cousin.
"We..." Chloe wanted to say, "Let's get a divorce."
However, the words stuck in her throat.
"Chloe, what do you want to say?"
"Nothing." Chloe still couldn't say it.
She no longer had the mind to write her application; she lay on the bed with her hands behind her head, staring at the ceiling.
The night passed silently.
On the next day, early in the morning, Chloe put on her professional attire and went to the Everjoy Company to take over.
Larry had nothing to do, so he slept in until ten in the morning.
During this period, a lot had happened in Sunset City.
Kevin, the head of the Hall family, one of the Four Great Families, had died, leading to the downfall of the Hall family from a prestigious family to a low point.
The heads of the Johnson family, the Wilson family, and the Garcia family also died.
Following that, the Free King succeeded.
Now, a mysterious tycoon had spent a fortune to buy the Trade Center.
While the citizens were still discussing these events, the Lewis family released another bombshell.
The Lewis family was a second-tier family.
However, the Lewis family had attracted a lot of attention recently due to some laughable or respectable events.
The first time they earned respect was when Chloe made a call to Leo, who then bankrupted the Hall family.
The second time they became a laughingstock was when Victor used a fake invitation to attend the Free King's succession ceremony.
This morning, at the Lewis family's Everjoy Company, Victor held a press conference, personally announcing that Chloe would officially become the Executive Chairman of Everjoy Company, holding 50% of the company's shares.
At the press conference, he emphasized the deep cooperation between the Everjoy Company and the Legion Lord, and also mentioned Chloe's relationship with Kelly, the Chairman of Everlife Pharmaceuticals.
He even brought up the scene at Kelly's birthday party where many big shots knelt before Chloe.
With the press conference, the Lewis family once again appeared in the public eye.
Following that, Victor announced that in two days, his 80th birthday banquet would be held at the Sunset City Hotel, inviting people from all walks of life to attend.
For a time, the topic of the Lewis family was on everyone's lips.
With Chloe in charge of the Lewis family, and given her current connections, their rise seemed imminent.
Chloe became famous once again.
As Chloe's husband, Larry naturally became a subject of discussion as well.
Useless, weak, and various other comments were made about him.
After waking up, Larry got out of bed, tidied up the floor bedding, and walked out of the room.
Because they had received family shares, the whole family went out to celebrate.
Only Helen was sitting on the couch, holding her phone, browsing job listings from various companies.
She originally wanted to work at the Lewis family's Everjoy Company, but felt uncomfortable working at a relative's company.
"Larry." Seeing Larry come out of the room, she immediately put down her phone and said, "Larry, help me find a job."
With Chloe not around, Larry lit a cigarette, took a drag, and walked over to sit on the couch. He glanced at her and said indifferently, "If you want a job, go to the job market. Why ask me?"
Helen sat next to Larry, hugging his arm and pouting. "You're capable. If you help, I can definitely find a decent job."
They were sitting very close, their bodies almost touching.
Helen's chest was pressed against Larry, and she deliberately rubbed against him.
Larry couldn't stand such teasing and was about to move away.
At that moment, the door opened.
Sam and Mindy walked in arm in arm, and were stunned by the scene on the couch.
