Chloe looked puzzled as she descended the stairs and found Edward already visiting her house early in the morning. Furthermore, the tall and imposing man was seen enjoying breakfast with her father, Dylan Arley.Chloe admitted that the Scottish-blooded man was relentless in trying to win her heart. And with full support from her father, Edward seemed to have the upper hand.However, despite all of Edward's efforts to capture her attention, Chloe remained determined to remain indifferent. She tried to maintain her composure and not fall into the arms of the notorious playboy."Good morning, Honey," Dylan, realizing Chloe's presence, greeted her warmly. He waved, signaling her to join them in the breakfast ritual.Edward smiled and focused on enjoying the food the maids had served on the table."Good morning, Dad." Chloe kissed her father's cheek briefly, pulled out a chair, sat down, and joined them for breakfast without paying much attention to Edward's presence."How did you sleep la
Chloe threw her shopper bag in any direction as she entered the CEO's office. Samuel, the 35-year-old assistant who had been in the room earlier, was taken aback by her arrival. Curious, he mustered the courage to ask."What's going on, Miss? Is something bothering you?"Chloe sat down in her chair, leaning back as she sought a comfortable position. Shortly afterward, she gently massaged her throbbing forehead."He's getting more and more intense in approaching me! Not to mention, Dad asked me to accept his proposal." Chloe couldn't hide her frustration any longer. "If you only knew, I'm sick of seeing his face every day."Samuel nodded in understanding. It seemed that his boss was in a bad mood."If I may suggest, why don't you just accept his proposal?" he said."Married to that scoundrel?" Chloe turned and glared disapprovingly. "Seriously, Sam? Don't be crazy.""I understand," Samuel nodded. He stood up from the sofa and pulled a chair in front of Chloe, then sat down. "But isn't
Edward looked incredibly handsome in his navy tuxedo that hugged his muscular body perfectly. His hair was styled in a messy undercut to add to his masculine appearance. After deliberately visiting Dylan Arley's residence a few days ago to propose to Chloe, tonight was the time for them to officially celebrate their engagement.Together with Alexander and Liliana Martin, the three of them hurriedly headed to The Boltons, a complex in Kensington where Chloe lived. Upon arrival, everyone present there warmly welcomed them. In the United Kingdom, who didn't know the prestigious Alexander Edgar Martin family? Their aristocratic lineage and immense wealth garnered widespread respect. It was a great achievement for Dylan to formalize a relationship between his only daughter and the sole heir of Quantum Corporation, especially considering Edward's perfection: handsome, educated, responsible, savvy in business, and, most importantly, possessing a good attitude. He was undoubtedly a suitable m
Edward couldn't blink when he picked up Chloe at her house this morning. She completely hypnotized him for a few seconds. Wrapped in a black dress, his future wife looked so graceful. Her brown hair was left flowing, adding an elegant impression to anyone who saw her.As previously informed, today was the schedule for the CEO relocation. As a prospective wife, Chloe's presence was highly anticipated. That's why Edward purposely picked her up to go together to the Quantum Corporation building in the heart of London."You look really beautiful."The expression of admiration slipped easily from Edward's lips before they got into the car. After all, Chloe was a creation of God, perfect in his eyes."No need to exaggerate," Chloe replied. "I'm sure you say these words to every woman you date."A big grin appeared on Edward's handsome face."Oh, Chloe. How long will you keep suspecting me?" he asked. "You should be proud. Among all the women I've dated, you're the only one I'm marrying."Ch
"Oh my God, Richard!" Edward exclaimed. "What else brings you to my office?"That evening, before leaving work, Edward had a special visitor. His two friends, Richard and Kenzi Osborn, seemed to stop by intentionally to invite him to go out."In two days, you'll be married, Ed. Why are you still working? Does Quantum lack competent people? So the CEO has no time for a break?" Richard teased.Edward had been waiting for this moment to get back at his friend. Everyone knew that when he was in Indonesia, Edward often mocked whatever Richard did, especially during the time of trouble between him and Kimberly.Indeed, Richard never forgot that moment. How Edward insulted and cornered him. Blaming every decision he made."Damn it!" cursed the brown-eyed man. "As the new CEO, there are some tasks I need to finish. But, I've handled everything well." He then stood up, grabbed the navy-colored jacket hanging behind the chair, and put it on. "So, let me repeat my question from earlier. What's y
"Are you ready, baby?" Chloe nodded confidently as Dylan picked her up straight to the hotel room. Once again, the woman checked her appearance from behind the mirror before stepping into the Ballroom where the event occurred. ShHe also ensured that he would officially become Sebastian Edward's wife. It had never crossed his mind once to marry someone he hated so much. Chloe even had time to consider why life could be such a joke. To carry out what had been planned long ago, she had to be willing to marry the man he believed was the mastermind behind Nathalie's death. Chloe was determined. When this case is revealed, he will be the one to drag the man to jail. Atoning for everything that has ever been done to her sister. "Chloe... can Papa say something?" Dylan asked when they had yet to leave the hotel room. "Daddy, what are you talking about?" Dylan approached Chloe's position, grabbed his youngest son's wrists, and said, "When you are a wife. Be kind to your husband. Be with
Chloe repeatedly blinked as she woke from sleep. She was squinting one eye, trying to guess what numbers were listed on the digital clock on the nightstand. Then he looked to the side. But did not find Edward's figure in his bed. Then, where is that man so early? For a moment, the blonde-haired woman squirmed in her sleeping position. She was stretching her body's muscles before finally choosing to sit and get ready to get off the bed. As he was about to get up, he heard the bathroom door open. A bare-chested figure of Edward so casually flashed in front of him. Like on purpose. As if taking revenge for what Chloe did last night. "You can take a shower now. After that, we have breakfast together and then go to my house." Chloe reached for the bathrobe that Edward handed her speechlessly. "Your house?" Edward nodded. "Yeah... we're married. So, it's only right that you live with me." "I thought you lived in an apartment. It's not that single men prefer to live there." Edward chuckle
Chloe looked visibly anxious and irritable while she was at one of the bakeries she frequently visited. Together with her assistant, Samuel, she spent time discussing work-related matters as well as personal issues she had been experiencing lately.This time, they were discussing the upcoming wedding, which would take place in two days. It was something that made Chloe feel frustrated and upset."Oh my God, Samuel, do I have to marry that man? Is there still a chance for me to back out?" she asked in frustration. She seemed like a person on the verge of losing her mind."Madam... calm down a bit. You will be fine. Remember your purpose for doing all of this."Chloe took a deep breath, exhaling slowly to release the frustration building up in her chest. She had to be patient, as Samuel suggested. How could her plan be realized if she gave up before anything even started?"Edward even challenged me to fall in love within three months. That man is truly insane!" Chloe vented her frustrat
