Chapter 1008 - 1011: Were You Just About to Call Me a Jerk?

Previously, he always knew that Chloe Summers didn’t want to be on the Chapman family’s registry because she had feelings for Harold Chapman.

"I didn’t say anything."

"I heard it, you just said you’ve joined the Chapman family’s registry, now you’re already Harold’s sister. There’s no possibility for you two to develop further!" Leon Rivers had naturally wrapped a big hand around her shoulder!

"What does my saying that have to do with you?" Chloe Summers stopped in her tracks.

"How does it not relate to me?" Leon Rivers’s devilishly handsome face was even more striking. "You came to the party with Harold Chapman, wasn’t it to find a chance to tell me this?"

Chloe Summers’s thoughts were exposed, and she blushed instantly. "Leon Rivers, stop dreaming. I never said that. I’m here because it’s Yulia O’Connell’s birthday, not to tell you this. Stop being so full of yourself!"

Leon Rivers was actually just speaking casually, but he didn’t expect Chloe Summers to react so intensely, looking like he’d hit the nail on the head!

"Chloe," Leon Rivers moved forward, his large hand pressing against her back, lowering his head, completely enveloping her in his territory, pulling her hand to place it on his chest, and whispered, "Actually, aren’t you the same as me?"

"No, I never thought that way, who would think about you, a guy like... like you! Also, you told me to spread my legs!" Chloe Summers always remembered that incident!

"Were you just about to call me a jerk?" Leon Rivers squinted his eyes.

Chloe Summers "...no."

"But you couldn’t bring yourself to scold me, so you changed the subject, didn’t you?"

"No, no, I didn’t!"

"Alright, no, no, don’t be mad, that incident with spreading your legs was my fault, alright? At worst, I’ll spread my legs," Leon Rivers said ambiguously.

How could the pure Chloe Summers be a match for him?

Hearing him say he’d spread his legs, her anger subsided a lot!

She turned and headed toward the banquet hall. The farther she walked inside, the wider the smile on her lips became.

On the sofa inside, Melody Thorne, Jared Quinn, and Harold Chapman were playing cards.

Melody Thorne was the first to notice Leon Rivers and Chloe Summers walking in, also the first to notice Chloe smiling.

"Cole O’Connell, Harold Chapman, you two lost. I told you this little couple fights at the head of the bed and makes up at the foot, right? So, do you agree to accept your loss?"

Chloe Summers "..."

"You guys... you guys are too much! Gambling here, even betting on Leon Rivers and me. I’m telling you, we haven’t made up, no! No, we weren’t even good in the first place!"

Oh gosh, what on earth did she just say!

"Yes, they are too much. Let’s go, ignore them," Leon Rivers pulled Chloe Summers’s arm and headed outside. During their time apart, he missed her so much. Finding some private space for the two of them was proper!

After the party ended, returning to the Quinn Family, Adjutant Chaucer was waiting in the lobby.

"Adjutant Chaucer, what is it?" Melody Thorne asked as the housekeeper brought tea over.

"It’s, it’s urgent. I originally thought that after Donovan Hawthorne got the military orders, he wouldn’t do anything, but who knew he would... he actually started using those orders to do improper things and has already violated military discipline. If this is discovered, he won’t survive, so now I wish to ask Miss Thorne to bring out the orders to control Donovan, so Commander Hawthorne can rest in peace."
