NovelAppChapter 281 This was the kind of situation that made everyone else green with envy.
The guy with the puppy-dog eyes was drop-dead handsome, and when he smiled, it was all sweetness and dimples-straight out of a comic book hero's playbook. But there was more to him than just good looks.
Sometimes, he would sit deeply engrossed in a book or just lost in thought as he patiently waited for Chloe to finish her meetings or wrap up her live broadcasts. Even then, he radiated a certain refined elegance, like he was the cherished son of a wealthy family.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThat wasn't even the half of it. This guy was also incredibly thoughtful. He frequently brought flowers and homemade lunches packed with love, causing everyone around to turn green with envy.
It was obvious to everyone that he was head over heels for Chloe, who seemed to be playing hard to get. Each the showed up, Chloe would try to avoid him. The office crowd couldn't help but tease him, "Hey, Pax, did you manage to win over your lady today?" Pax would always respond with a bright, toothy grin, "I'm still trying." Who wouldn't fall for such an open, sincere, joyful, and ridiculously handsguy? Well, Chloe, for one.
Chloe was so stressed about the situation that she was practically losing hair over it. Every tshe spotted Pax coming her way, she'd react like she'd seen a ghost, doing everything she could to avoid him. She just couldn't fathom why Pax liked her. She saw herself as an older, divorced woman and not exactly a catch for someone like him. Clearly, these rich kids were out of touch with reality.
Chloe had turned him down tand again, but Pax only seemed to get more determined with each rejection. She was at her wit's end.
One day, right after finishing her broadcast, she saw Pax waiting outside. Chloe clenched her fists, seriously considering if giving him a good whack might knock ssense into him.
Just then, Pax saw her and started to approach. At that moment, Tony stepped out of the office. "Chloe, I need to talk to you urgently." Seizing the opportunity to dodge Pax, Chloe grabbed Tony and hurried off. Poor Tony was utterly confused. After a maze of turns, she finally dragged Tony into a stairwell, leaving Pax behind.
"Chloe, if you dragaround in broad daylight like this, people might think we're having a secret affair," Tony joked.
Chloe let go of Tony, her eyes twinkling with mischief. "Are you flirting with me?" Tony quickly shook his head, waving his hands and laughing nervously, his little mustache twitching. "Just kidding, don't take it seriously. I really need a favor." Chloe had beca star at their TV station. Riverbrook TV Station was about to undergo sbig changes, soon to be acquired by Eldridge Entertainment. It was probably all thanks to her. Claire had agreed to the acquisition and promised to help Riverbrook go public, offering a generous share to Tony, who now treated Claire like a queen.

Tony looked hesitant. "It's about the variety show you're coordinating. Eldridge TV mentioned that one of the female guests we were ло .nét
negotiating with couldn't join due to scheduling conflicts. They suggested we provide someone to replace her."
Tony watched Chloe carefully. "After discussing with the station manager, we decided you should replace her and join Ruben's new variety show." Chloe frowned, clearly deep in thought.
"Chloe, I get that you have
reservations. You're not a celebrity and haven't done variety showsm before. But youst, a public figure Your popularity rivals that of a many young stars in the entertainment industry." Ashburn X
