The moment Chloe walked into the office, she saw a woman on the sofa wearing a rose–pink off–the–shoulder top, a light gray short skirt, and whose skin glowed.

Bright and fresh colors were completely out of place in Alexei’s cool–toned office.

At that moment, her charming face held a serious expression. She sat primly with her hands on her knees.

‘Childish.‘ Chloe felt disdain.

The thought of Shawn specifically greeting this woman, as if she were the host, deeply displeased her.

Chloe thought, ‘How can she take the position of Mrs. Turner, simply by relying on her looks?‘

Yet, she had known Alexei longer, and her family background was more prominent.

“Mr. Turner, Ms. Westwood said she has a government cooperation plan she wishes to discuss with you.” Shawn smiled as he stated Chloe’s intention, polite on the surface, but secretly sneering.

Chloe was Isaac’s daughter. After Kinsley’s last attempt to discuss cooperation with the Turner Group was rejected, the Westwood family remained quiet for a while, but recently they have begun probing frequently again, with Chloe as their representative.

Alexei’s expression was indifferent. “I believe I’ve already stated that the Turner Group has no intention of cooperating with the Westwood family.”

Chloe reluctantly gripped the document, gazing adoringly at the cold–faced man. “But this is a government–led project, which is entirely beneficial to the Turner Group,” she said.

She glanced at Natasha, deliberately emphasizing, “My father will also participate, and we can get firsthand information on official policies.”

Isaac was involved in politics, so it was not difficult for him to reveal some internal

information.

Alexei’s fingers twitched. It seemed the Westwood family truly couldn’t wait any longer. Even Isaac, who usually stayed behind the scenes, actively came forward.

Little did they know, the higher one jumped, the harder one fell.

He didn’t bother with Chloe. “Shawn, escort them out.”

Chloe bit her lower lip. “Wait a moment!”

She stared at Alexei. “I know my aunt let you down, but the Westwood family intends to compensate. Why push it away? Alexei, you should know which is more beneficial to you. Cooperating with the Westwood family or being our their enemy. Why must you create difficulties for yourself over the previous generation’s affairs?”

Clearly, a powerful alliance through marriage was the best choice.

She even hinted to him, “Aunt Teri was willful and has been married for over twenty years, but I am my father’s only daughter. When necessary, the Westwood family will definitely stand by me.”

Natasha was treated as invisible by Chloe. She quietly nudged closer to Alexei, hooked his arm, and blinked her big eyes, curiously watching the arrogant Chloe.

She thought, ‘Does she mean the Westwood family can abandon Teri at any time? This is amusing!‘

Chloe tried to ignore Natasha, who shamelessly clung to Alexei’s arm like an accessory. She softened her tone. “Shall we have dinner together and have a good talk? I’ve already booked a restaurant.”

She didn’t think Alexei would reject her.

As the oldest daughter in the Westwood family, which had few girls, she was popular from a young age and knew she was beautiful and that her family background attracted men.

Sometimes Chloe hated that Teri was her own aunt.

If it weren’t for Teri, she could have openly pursued Alexei long ago.

Recently, for some unknown reason, her father and second uncle have frequently shown goodwill towards Alexei, even tacitly allowing her to approach him.

Chloe was dazed by this surprise.

Out of respect for Teri, even though they knew how Chloe felt, they didn’t want her involved with Alexei. Chloe relied on her family, so she had to go along with even if she didn’t want to.

But now that she had the elders‘ approval, she launched her offensive without hesitation.

As for Natasha, she tried to ignore the discomfort in her heart.

For people who grew up in families like Chloe’s, there was no such thing as true love.

Just like how she had liked Alexei for so long, she still had to abandon those feelings because of family opposition.

If it hadn’t been for this turn of events, Chloe would have hidden this affection in

her heart for her entire life.

Compared to Natasha, Chloe believed she would be a more qualified wife for the head of the Turner family.

Even Alexei’s father had loved Unity passionately back then, but it still ended dismally. He married Teri for the sake of benefit.

Alexei was smarter than Dereck, and she was not as crazy or sharp as Teri.

She believed they could get along well.

All it took was to first set aside the biases that come with one’s identity.

Chloe looked at Alexei expectantly.

Alexei pinched Natasha’s waist, who was laughing and watching the show from the

Natasha quickly sat up straight.

“No…” A delicate voice echoed in the tense office.

Natasha pinched Alexei’s arm back.

Deliberately, she clung possessively to Alexei’s arm, her expression reflecting the defiant attitude of someone both spoiled and favored. “He has to come with me to the cafeteria.”

Alexei, whose expression had been cold due to Chloe’s words, smiled slightly.

Chloe’s face darkened.

‘A cafeteria? How could Alexei eat that kind of food?‘ She found it absurd.

She felt that she and Natasha were like a luxurious feast and cafeteria food placed before Alexei. Anyone would know which to choose.

Chloe suppressed the anger provoked within her, avoiding Natasha’s dazzling, arrogant smile.

She asked, “Mr. Turner, what do you think? Should we go now? If you don’t want to discuss business, we don’t have to.”
