Rural Belle & Three Heirs

Chloe asked firmly, "Ms. Rodriguez, I gotta ask. How do the folks at the Martin Group see me? Could it mess up the engagement between the Martin Family and the Davis Family?"

"And if I don't put the company's interests first, could the Martin Group go under?"

"Since you didn't handle this right, shouldn't you be the one apologizing to me? How does that make me unreasonable?"

"Yesterday, when you brought the cops to search my small company, Ms. Rodriguez, didn't you think you were being unreasonable?"

"And now, you're trying to guilt-trip me with these so-called moral arguments? Let me tell you, that's not gonna fly. Today, if those who slandered me don't give me a written apology, I'll sue you for defamation."

"How dare you? When it comes to slandering me, you have all sorts of tricks, but when it's time to apologize, you all hide like turtles in their shells. Do you think the Davis Family is easy to push around?"

Chloe's temper flared up instantly. She bluntly laid out the facts, scolding everyone present.noveldrama

Those who were scolded felt indignant, but when Chloe mentioned the Davis Family, they had to bear it.

Anyone who targeted Chloe would become a target of the Davis Family, and with their limited power, they couldn't possibly stand up to the Davis Family.

Chloe's comment about turtles almost directly pointed at Giselle. Knowing she was in the wrong, Giselle didn't dare to argue.

Isidora, who had made a mistake, wanted to hold onto Giselle, thinking she still had some influence with Grant. She boldly spoke up to Grant. "Mr. Martin..."

Grant, who had been silent, suddenly turned around. After glancing at Isidora, he addressed everyone, "Apologize to Chloe."

His voice wasn't loud, but the firmness and authority in his words created a strong sense of pressure for everyone present. This was the aura of someone in power. Giselle was extremely reluctant to apologize. She muttered, "I'm still an elder..."

The next second, Liam's words shattered any privilege the term 'elder' might have given her. "Our teachers always taught us that even elders must apologize when they make mistakes."

"Giselle, didn't you always tell me that admitting and correcting mistakes makes you a good person? Why can't you lead by example now?"

Looking at Liam's infuriating face, Giselle felt helpless. She stiffened her neck and apologized to Chloe, "Miss Davis, I'm sorry. Our company was wrong about the letter of intent and falsely accused you. Tomorrow, I'll draft a formal apology and publicly apologize to you. Please forgive us."

Giselle's concession greatly improved Chloe's mood. She glanced at Giselle and said condescendingly, "Alright, I accept your apology. I'll be waiting for your apology letter." After saying this, Chloe turned to Grant and said, "Grant, weren't you going to have a meeting? Liam and I will head out now. You all have a good meeting and think about your mistakes."

With that, Chloe pulled Liam to leave. The people in Grant's office also started to disperse.

Grant stopped Liam just in time and asked, "The camera... leave it with me."

Liam looked at his palm reluctantly and said, "Grant, this is mine. I bought it with my own money. You can't just take it."

Grant, with his wealth, said, "Name your price."

Liam exaggerated, "Not much, just thirty million dollars."

Grant immediately took out his phone and transferred the money to Liam. Once the transaction was complete, he snatched the miniature camera from Liam's hand. He had to see how much the camera had captured.

He could be embarrassed, but he wouldn't let anyone see footage of him disheveling Chloe's clothes. Chloe was dear to his heart, and every inch of her skin belonged to him.

Liam, having received the money, handed over the camera without hesitation. Before Grant could react, Liam nodded to Chloe, "Let's go. I'll take you home." Chloe quickly followed her savior.

As they walked downstairs, Chloe couldn't help but ask Liam about her doubts. "Liam, I really want to know, are your computer skills that bad? Why didn't you present the evidence of Isidora framing me?

Liam snorted, a sound filled with meaning. "That camera was installed in Grant's office this afternoon. There's nothing on it."

His words made Chloe break out in a cold sweat. He had used such a tactic to uncover such a big truth? The phrase "all's fair in love and war" fit Liam perfectly.

"Nothing? Weren't you afraid Isidora would demand evidence?" Chloe felt a chill thinking about what had happened. She had assumed Liam had evidence, which was why she had been so bold. Now knowing he had nothing, she wouldn't have been so reckless.

"She wouldn't dare ask for evidence. Having done something wrong, does she have the guts to demand evidence?" Liam explained nonchalantly, as if he had used this tactic many times before.

He had mastered this trick to perfection. Not only did he uncover the truth, but he also swindled thirty million dollars from Grant.

Chloe felt bad for Grant's wasted thirty million dollars. "Well, aren't you afraid Grant will come after you when he finds out you swindled him?"

Liam looked back at her and smiled, "If I couldn't download the plugin, do you think Grant could? If he comes to me with the camera, I'll just tell him he formatted it by mistake."

Liam had already thought of an escape plan. Chloe admired him and gave him a thumbs up.

As they walked towards the parking lot, Liam reminded Chloe, "Chloe, this matter is between us. Don't tell Grant..."
