Chapter 222
Skyler had obtained an imitation Alexa Jewelry necklace from Zoey, and it had a miraculous effect!
Bracing herself and filled with apprehension, she had privately given it to Ada Wang, fearing that she
would die on the spot if discovered.
Even if she was discovered, she had already thought of a way out; and if she was deceived by an
acquaintance, she still had some knowledge of the jewelry to cover it up, so it was fine,
In the end, it was unclear whether it was due to Alexa’s disciple’s exceptional craftsmanship, but Ada
Wang was completely unaware that the necklace was fake. She was so pleased with it that she
immediately put it on and refused to take it off!
Finally, Ada Wang and Skyler put their signatures on the contract.
With Aubree’s tireless assistance, Skyler was able to break into the core and was subsequently
promoted by Jake to a director, thus allowing her to attend the Group’s upper management meetings!
That night, Aubree and his mother sat on the balcony, toasting with the celebratory wine in anticipation.
“Daughter, once Ada Wang’s wedding is done, your father will officially give you the hotel. You should
take the first step forward confidently. You’ll surely make it to the board of directors and kick that
scoundrel Joseph out with Mom!”
“My child, I can’t rely on your sister.” Aubree said, embracing her daughter, her eyes glimmering with a
growing optimism, “I’m relying on you for the rest of my life.”
“Mom, don’t fret! When I succeed, I will slowly but surely take away Joseph’s influence. Then, the entire
Sawle Group will be
ours!”
Skyler’s eyes sparkled extravagantly as she and Aubree clinked glasses at the heart.
The housekeeper’s voice called out from outside the door, inquiring if anyone was inside.
“Ma’am, Third Miss, someone has just arrived to deliver you a letter.”
The two women glanced at each other and exited the balcony.
“Who sent it?” Skyler queried.
“He’s the General Manager Secretary of KS WORLD Hotel; his last name is Stewart.
KS? Chloe sent it over?!
“Gotcha. You go ahead and get to it.” Aubree accepted the offer and shut the door. Opening the letter,

tonight… Is something wrong?” Skyler asked worriedly.
“What’s got you so worried? Now that Ada Wang has inked the deal with you, it’s a done deal. Even if
Chloe wants to meddle, she can’t do a thing!”
Coincidentally, at that very moment, the TV was airing the evening news, with one of the headlines
being about the charity jewelry auction!
“Mom! The host of this event is actually ‘MINT”!”.
Skyler gestured towards the TV and exclaimed, “This is an internationally renowned fashion/magazine.
Celebrities are vying for the title of this magazine! Chloe is the organizer of the MINT event. Don’t you
think she’s being a bit too daring?!”

“Hmph, no matter how grand it is, it’s futile. A defeat is a defeat. She’s only doing this to preserve her

“It appears that we have our sights set on her. Let’s not let her do anything else to Ada Wang and spoil
our good intentions!”
Chloe had a pleasant conversation with the editor of the MINT Fashion Magazine over the phone,
speaking in English and laughing freely.
She changed into a tight sports suit, ready to go to the backyard and row a single rubber dinghy, when
Oscar arrived.
“Big brother!”
Chloe ran downstairs, excitement coursing through her, and leapt into Oscar’s arms.
The tall and stalwart man opened his arms and embraced her tightly. She was dressed so snugly that
her curves were perfectly outlined, her protruding areas were accentuated, and her graceful curves
were pressed against him. It was an indescribable charm that melted his soul, graceful and sexy.
“It’s already so late, Oscar,” she said, her brow furrowing. “Are you going to work out?”
“Yes, big brother,” Chloe said, tilting her head back and raising her little face with a smile, “I’m in a good
mood and I’m heading to the backyard to row a rubber boat!”
“What are you going to do when it’s so dark? What if you fall into the river? You don’t have very good
swimming abilities.”
“Also, don’t you realize that it’s almost freezing out there? You’re not wearing much, what if you get
sick?”
He turned to look at Jordan, “It’s just you and the Young Mistress here usually. Why don’t you keep an
eye on her?”
“My sincerest apologies, President Thorp,” Jordan said, bowing hastily. “I have not fulfilled my
obligation.”
“Okay, big brother. Don’t hold Jordan responsible. He reminded me, but he couldn’t make me do it.”
The siblings sat down on the sofa hand in hand. Chloe nestled her little head on her big brother’s
shoulder. “Big bro, the editor of MINT just phoned me to sort out the timetable. Thanks, big bro, for
hooking me up with such a top-notch
resource!”
“I’m really fond of MINT. I’ve been following this magazine since I was a kid. It’s been a great source of
inspiration for my fashion design!”
Alice, the chief editor of MINTS, was a veritable devil in the fashion industry. A slight frown from her
while watching a show was a disaster for any brand, highlighting her immense importance in the
industry.
But such a big shot had personally phoned Chloe!
Only God knew that, at that moment, the great anticipation had caused the young woman’s palms to
become sweaty with excitement!
“Chloe, it’s great that you’re fond of it.”
Oscar gazed at her affectionately and caressed her petite nose. “I’m worried that you’ll be disheartened

person, so I’ve got something for you to do.”
“When you’re occupied, you won’t be distressed.”
“Tsk, why am I so delicate? I’ve been eating a lot lately and getting plenty of rest. I’m not letting it
bother me.” Chloe pouted her cherry lips, her voice gentle and pleasant.
Jordan bit his lower lip, suppressing his heartbeat as he fixedly stared at Chloe’s tender pink cheeks.
Only when in Oscar’s presence did the young miss show her coquettish side of a little girl, her cuteness
being too much to bear.
Whenever he had the opportunity, he was content.
“You still claim you’re okay? Those dark circles under your eyes are so pronounced,” Oscar sighed
softly, his rough. fingertips tenderly caressing her delicate eyes.
“Oh, that’s not because of this… Oh right, big brother, how do you know Alice? Your bond is really
strong. She actually let me do such a big event without any worries?”
Chloe’s beautiful eyes sparkled with surprise, “You must be aware that the MINT’s charity event has
never been hosted by Medo!”
“I’m not acquainted with Alice,” Oscar said coolly.
“Ah? Then why…”
“She had a fondness for me for about a decade.”
Chloe and Jordan was shocked. “What?!”
Oscar said nonchalantly, “I’ve already turned her down multiple times, yet she’s still persistent. All I can
do is ignore her and
let her be.”
Alice, the fashionable female Devil, was nearing her 50th year this year!
Although her big brother was 30 years old, he still acted like an old cow munching on tender grass!
Wasn’t that exciting?!
“Sadly, so sadly…” Chloe sighed.
“Indeed, having a fifty-year-old pursuer is quite stressful,” Jordan nodded in agreement.
“What? I mean Alice! She’s really pitiful!”
Chloe gazed at the air, her admiration for her idol only growing stronger. “Age was not an issue; the
problem is that she chose the wrong person!”
“The female demon had become enamored with a handsome man, yet he was unaware of her
affections. She should have been thankful that big brother had not reverted her to her original form.
Nevertheless, she could not help but love him!”
Oscar was rendered speechless.
Jordan was flabbergasted as well.
