Chapter 1441
Seeing no sign of deception in him, Chloe Collins decided not to ask any more questions and prepared to go in and have a look.
Normally, one needed permission to enter the building; however, upon seeing her, the guards let her in.
By now, everyone in the company knew that she was Chase Carrington’s daughter, so in addition to her "Empress" nickna, she had also acquired the flattering label of the "first-born daughter."
Unaware and unconcerned with this, she quickly took the elevator up.
Fearing that she might disturb others and generate unnecessary gossip, she had only arranged for two people to search each floor, while she herself searched from top to bottom.
The rooftop was quiet or at least for ordinary people.
However, Chloe, who had taken off her hearing aid, could hear sounds everywhere.
This floor didn’t have Wanda Wesley’s presence, so she headed towards the elevator.
"Don’t touch , I’m not in the mood today."
A sudden angry female voice, a very familiar one.
It reminded her of Clara Carrington’s face.
The voice was coming from a room on the top floor; there was no one else in the corridor.
"My darling, how many days has it been since I touched you? Do the maths."
Clara sneered, "Darling? Am I your darling? Be careful what you call ."
"Who else could it be but you? Clara, the one Austin Thornton loves most, let hold you."
"Get away," Clara’s disdain showed in her words. "You’ve been getting more and more audacious lately, even daring to behave this way in the company. If your wife finds out, I’m not covering for you."
"Haha, she won’t find out. She’s busy playing with the baby at ho, her mind is full of the baby and she has no ti to deal with ."
Clara scoffed coldly, "I don’t want to hear any of your excuses, and I’m not a toy you can just play with. We use each other for what we need, without interfering in each other’s lives—rember that."
"Oh dear, I’ve got it all noted. I’ve been holding back for several days now, let’s... hmm for a mont, hmm?"
Suddenly, there followed the sounds of a few kisses, which abruptly stopped.
"I’m not in the mood today, you should go," Clara seed to step back.
"Why, because of that Chloe Collins?"
Clara remained silent.
"My dear Clara, don’t worry about her. She’s got a complicated background and she’s involved with the Collinses. More importantly, Tristan Collins backs you. You think she can win?"
"Don’t speak so confidently, you don’t understand her. She has had too many surprises."
"Dear, I’m surprised to hear you say that. However, in my opinion, Chloe Collins pales in comparison to you. The Carrington Enterprise will be yours, sooner or later. Hehe, I’ve got good news. We’ve acquired two hotels, one of them has seen a death and the other is on the brink of bankruptcy due to poor managent. With a little effort, it can be turned around. The Chairman has handed this matter over to . I’ll give her the hotel with the bad reputation and leave the other one for you. What do you think?"
Finally, Clara’s voice displayed so delight, "That sounds more like it."
"Keep your mood in check, it’s late. Co on."
The rest were obscene words, not worth listening to.
Chloe took the elevator and left.
She had only recently co to know about Austin Thornton.
When she returned to the Carringtons’ with Chase Carrington, he had given her a brief overview of the company situation, including key leaders.
Austin Thornton was the son of one of the elders—over forty years old and one of the company’s Vice Presidents.
Although a capable individual, his private life was a ss.
Clara could have been his daughter.
However, arrangents like this could not have lasted this long unless both parties were willing. Clara was undoubtedly willing.
To secure her position, she was willing to go to any extre.
