On the Day I Was Kicked Out of the Wealthy Family, I Had a Flash Marriage with a Tycoon Chapter 132: Madam Is Always Like This

At the thought of securing first place in the finals the day after tomorrow, Esther Sterling couldn’t help but smile. Then, as if rembering sothing, she added, "By the way, Claire White got into a car accident. They won’t trace it back to us, will they? That woman looks innocent, but she’s actually very persistent."

Ruby Lynch said, "Of course not. It’s just a drunk driving accident. How could they possibly trace it back to us?"

"Drunk driving? Doesn’t that an we’ll have to pay compensation?"

"The cost of a handbag to get rid of a rival. It’s a bargain."

Esther Sterling smiled. "True." After a pause, she asked, "By the way, Auntie, have you found out who’s backing Chloe Sterling?"

At the ntion of Chloe Sterling, Ruby Lynch’s brow furrowed in disgust. "No. And who cares who she is? Could she be more powerful than President Sinclair? Don’t worry about who she’s with. Just focus on securing President Sinclair."

Esther Sterling nodded. "Yes, I know. Once I win first place, I’ll be able to get into the music company under the Sinclair Group. Then I’ll have more opportunities to get close to him. I’ll definitely end up with him."

Ruby Lynch smiled. "I believe in you."

After thinking for a mont, Chloe Sterling called Jean Kensington and asked her to check if there was anything suspicious about Claire White’s car accident.

Chase Langdon asked, "Should I take you straight to The dical College, or back to the martial arts hall first?"

Chloe Sterling replied, "Back to the martial arts hall first. My car is still there."

The two of them returned to the martial arts hall first, and then Chloe Sterling went to The dical College.

「Afternoon.」

Julian Xavier ca to the lab building. "Chloe, we haven’t been to the bar in ages. Tomorrow’s the weekend, want to go out and relax tonight? A change of pace might spark so new ideas."

Knowing that Chloe Sterling and her team had recently run into difficulties with their project, Julian Xavier had co looking for her specifically.

Chloe Sterling stretched her wrists. "Sure, but I’ll have to go a bit later. I need to stop by ho first."

Julian Xavier said, "Alright, I’ll wait for you at the bar."

Just then, Maya Jacobs and Wyatt Hank ca out. Chloe Sterling imdiately asked, "Are you two up for the bar tonight?"

Maya Jacobs’s eyes lit up. She looked at Julian Xavier and asked, "Is Young Master Xavier treating?"

Julian Xavier said with a smile, "It’s on ."

"We’re in!" Maya Jacobs threw an arm around Chloe Sterling. "Of course we’re going!"

Wyatt Hank said with a grin, "I’m in, too."

Julian Xavier said, "Isn’t there one more person? Invite him, too."

"The third one already left. I’ll text and ask him." As he spoke, Wyatt Hank took out his phone to send a ssage.

After a mont, he added, "He said he’s in."

Chloe Sterling said, "Then it’s settled. But I might be late, so you guys go on ahead."

Maya Jacobs asked, "Huh? What ti can you make it?"

"Around nine, I think."

"Oh, that’s not too bad. We’ll go first and wait for you."

After making their plans, they each headed ho first.

Chloe Sterling and Julian Xavier walked out together.

"Are things busy at The Lockwood Residence? I haven’t seen you around much lately, and you haven’t been to the bar in ages," Julian Xavier asked.

Chloe Sterling said, "Things have been a bit busy recently."

"My grandfather told the president of Apex Group wanted to et you. Why did you turn him down? Apex is pretty well-known internationally. If you could help them solve their problem, it would be a good thing for you. You’d gain more recognition within the industry."

"I just want to focus on my research. I don’t care whether other people recognize my work or not," Chloe Sterling said flatly.

Julian Xavier chuckled. "So you just plan to keep this low profile forever?"

Chloe Sterling replied, "Mhm, it’s better to be low-key."

’My identity as Lynn Chester has already drawn the attention of so many people. If I don’t keep a low profile, I’ll only attract more and more trouble.’

"It’s not that it’s bad, I just want to see you shine."

’She’s clearly so gifted.’ Julian Xavier felt that Chloe Sterling deserved to be in the spotlight, to be adored by all. He wanted all those who looked down on and belittled her to see her true abilities, and he wanted everyone in the Sterling Family to regret it, to realize just how blind they had been.

Chloe Sterling said languidly, "Shining brightly isn’t necessarily a good thing. A quiet life is more comfortable." After a pause, she suddenly asked, "You didn’t co here to plead his case, did you?"

Julian Xavier laughed. "Of course not. I don’t even know Charles Sterling. It was just a casual question. But thinking about it, it makes sense. You don’t even reveal that you work with Jasper Lockwood, so it’s only normal that you’d refuse Charles Sterling."

The Lockwood Group’s international reputation far surpasses that of Apex. If Chloe Sterling wanted to prove herself, invoking Jasper Lockwood’s na would be far more convincing.

Anyone chosen by Jasper Lockwood to work by his side is a top talent in their respective industry. No one doubts that.

As they talked, the two of them reached the parking lot.

Chloe Sterling pressed her car key. "I’m heading ho. See you tonight."

Julian Xavier replied, "Okay, drive safe."

Chloe Sterling returned to The Lockwood Residence first. She had just walked in the door when she received a ssage from Jasper Lockwood.

[Chloe, I’ll probably be ho late tonight. Don’t wait up for .]

After reading the ssage, Chloe Sterling imdiately replied: [Mhm, I’m also going to be back late today.]

Jasper Lockwood: [Still at the lab?]

Chloe Sterling: [No, I’m already ho. But I’m going to Julian Xavier’s bar later with so people from the lab.]

Jasper Lockwood: [Okay.]

Putting her phone away, Chloe Sterling suddenly recalled the argunt they’d had a few days ago. Although the incident was over, a rift seed to have ford between them—and that rift was Silas Coldwell.

At this thought, Chloe Sterling’s brow furrowed slightly. ’Where on earth did Jasper Lockwood get the idea that I care about Silas Coldwell? If I cared about him, I would have agreed to join the Nocturne Group long ago. Why would I have refused him ti and ti again! Whatever. I’m not going to think about this right now.’

Chloe Sterling went upstairs, walked into the study, and opened her computer to look at what Jean Kensington had sent her.

Claire White’s car accident did indeed look like an accident. The man had been drinking with a few bad friends and, on his way ho, crashed into the taxi Claire White was in.

But after the man got out of his car, he didn’t seem particularly panicked looking at the overturned taxi he had hit. He then simply took out his phone to call the police.

Watching the video, Chloe Sterling’s eyes darkened slightly. She felt that sothing wasn’t quite right.

Jean Kensington had also investigated all the bank cards under the man’s na, but there were no recent suspicious large-sum deposits.

After pondering for a long ti, Chloe Sterling closed her laptop, then got up and headed out. Just as she opened the study door, the butler suddenly appeared at the entrance, looking as if he was about to enter.

"Madam, you’re here as well," the butler said imdiately.

"Yes. Is sothing the matter?"

"The Second Master asked to retrieve a docunt from the study and have soone deliver it to him at the office."

"The Second Master is still busy at the office?"

"Yes, and it’s quite urgent. It needs to be delivered within the hour."

Chloe Sterling stepped aside to clear the doorway. "Then you should go get it quickly."

"Yes, Madam." The butler entered the study, walked to the desk, confird the docunt on it, and imdiately picked it up to leave.

Chloe Sterling had already stepped out of the study, but she suddenly stopped and turned back to the butler. "I was just about to head out anyway. I can take it to the Second Master."

"You’re going out, Madam?"

"Mhm. Give it to . It’ll be faster if I take it."

"Very well. Thank you for the trouble, Madam." The butler handed the docunt to Chloe Sterling.

Chloe Sterling took the docunt and hurried downstairs.

A few minutes later, the cheapest yet most audacious car in the manor sped out.

Seeing this, the butler murmured, "Madam drives so fast. There was really no need to be in such a hurry."

A bodyguard nearby comnted, "Madam always drives like that, like she’s in a race."

The butler: "..."
