A Billion-Rich Woman Was Chased by Her EX-Husband novel Chapter 126

Chapter 126 

Her words were like a lightning bolt, striking Mayor Savor and his wife with such force that they were left stunned. 

Sea Gate KS Group, the daughter of Stefan? 

“Are you truly the daughter of Director Thorp?” Mayor Savor’s eyes widened in surprise as he scrutinized Chloe. 

Jordan coughed lightly, silently cursing, “Gosh darn it, someone else is using a card, while the big boss is using their dad.” 

“Yes, you can certainly confirm this with Director Sawle and Mr. Sawle.” 

Chloe raised her rosy lips, her smile widening. “I have some business with Sawle Group. You two can confirm my credentials.” 

Joseph looked at her, his eyes sinking sadly. 

She did not want to use the word “familiar” to make them seem “unfamiliar in any way. 

“Director Sawle, Mr. Sawle, so this Miss Thorp is an old friend of yours.” 

Mayor Savor was a person deeply entrenched in bureaucracy. Upon hearing that she was Stefan’s daughter, his tone became cager. “My apologies for not recognizing gold and jade. I should have known better!” 

He shook hands with Chloe right away. 

“Mayor Savor,” Chloe said, her smile still in place but with a hint of pressure, “with my current standing, I’m wondering if I’m qualified to discuss cooperation with you? 

Mayor Savor was taken aback. 

He felt that the young girl in front of him had an aura that commanded respect, making it impossible to underestimate her despite her age. 

Joseph breathed a sigh of relief and, secretly clenching his fists, rejoiced inwardly. 

Relying on the fact that she was the daughter of Thorp Group, this woman began to act wildly. 

What did she think the business field was like, an amusement park? 

“Miss Thorp, we are all delighted to have you here. However, I must now discuss something with Mayor Savor that is not suitable for an outsider like you to hear or be involved in. So, kindly return first.” Jake kept a kindly elder’s smile on his face, yet his eyes were cold and expressionless. 

Skyler, seething with fury, sought to lend a hand, yet Aubree barred her way. 

This woman, overestimating herself, had hit the muzzle of the gun, so her man naturally took care of her; it was not worth her while to come out. 

“I understand that you wish to discuss business. Had it not been for Balin City, I wouldn’t have come.” 

Chloe raised her eyebrows without a change in expression, “So, when you said I couldn’t join in, I don’t get it. Our Thorp Group should have the same resources and financial power as the Sawle Group.” 

“At Thorp Group, we can manage projects that Sawle Group can handle. We can offer more than just buying things. I’m giving Mayor Savor another option – isn’t that great?” 

Mayor Savor was taken aback, astounded that this small girl was so formidable! 

At this moment, Jake and Aubree’s expressions had lost the familiarity of a married couple, both of them equally ugly. 

“Miss Thorp. 

Joseph, who had been quiet the whole time, stepped forward twice. His starry eyes were like a bottomless pit, casting a long shadow over her slender frame. “We at Sawle Group have already come to an agreement with Mayor Savor. Everyone involved has already agreed. What’s more, Sawle Group’s various criteria have already met the requirements for developing Balin City 

“Aren’t you being a bit unreasonable by intervening in the middle like this? Don’t you think you’re breaking the business rules?” 

Chloe raised her beautiful, stunning face and, with a sneer, blinked her bright eyes. 

“Chloe!” Joseph’s eyes narrowed and his jaw tightened. 

“As for you claiming that I breached the rules and caused a disturbance without justification, then Mr. Sawle, you are belittling me.” 

Chloe stepped back and removed herself from the fog he had created around her. “The victor has always determined the rules of the business world. If you, Sawle Group, have signed the agreement, then I’m being unreasonable.” 

“At present, Sawle Group has not yet inked a deal with Mayor Savor. Whether you or 1 set the terms, it remains to be seen. Joseph’s eyes narrowed and he was taken aback by her words. 

She was right; before signing the contract, all variables had to be taken into account. For years, he had held fast to this unspoken rule, never putting himself in a position of disadvantage despite the losses he had caused in the business arena. 

He never anticipated that one day he would face such an obstacle. 

However, his ex-wife was his opponent! 

“Miss Thorp, I don’t believe Mayor Savor will be willing to work with you.” 

Aubree could not stand her haughty demeanor and said with a forced grin, “Let’s not forget that Mayor Savor and our Sawle Group have been pals for years, and we’ve always had a solid working relationship. The average person can’t compete.” 

“Just because you said you wanted to discuss cooperation, you showed up unannounced. You didn’t even bother to arrange a time or place to meet Mayor Savor. You intruded on our gathering. This is highly insincere and disrespectful.” 

“Yes!” Skyler murmured in agreement. 

“Sigh.” Chloe feigned helplessness, “I know I came too suddenly, but I had no other option. I’m scared that if I was even a moment late, Mayor Savor would regret it.” 

“Regret? What do you mean?” Aubree couldn’t help but inquire sharply. 

Chloe disregarded her and only asked Mayor Savor, “Mayor Savor, are you really not going to contemplate collaborating with our Thorp Group? Don’t tell me that because I’m a female with no standing in the organization, you don’t have the courage to speak up?” 

“I came at this time, as instructed by my big brother, President Oscar of the KS Group, to take care of this matter. If you don’t believe me, I can arrange for President Thorp to meet you right away.” 

“Miss Thorp, I’m not doubting you. It’s just that I’m well acquainted with Jake, and we’ve collaborated on numerous occasions, so I have faith in Sawle Group.” 

“Furthermore, this project is in Medo, after all. The Sawle Group is a major player in Medo, so…, let’s look forward to working together again in the future.” 

At this moment, Sawle Group and his wife wore proud expressions on their faces. 

This wet-behind-the-ears little girl suddenly wanted to come over and discuss cooperation, with the aim of stealing Sawle Group’s project a truly whimsical notion! 

“Alright… I understand it can be challenging for you to become acquainted with someone. But if we are to work together, Thorp Group, I can’t say anything else, except that one thing is for sure.” 

“You won’t regret it, Chloe said with a mysterious smile. 

Josepli’s heart suddenly jolted. 

This expression, this tone, this gaze-they all speak volumes/ 

She wanted to cause trouble! 

“Miss Thorp,” Aubree frowned and asked sharply, “what do you mean by this? Why does it sound like we, the Sawle Group, will be in trouble if we cooperate?” 

“Secretary Stewart, what time is it?” Chloe inquired without any apparent purpose. 

“Young Mistress,” Jordany said, “it’s already three o’clock in the afternoon.”
