Chapter 101 Can't Let Her Have It Easy
Since Chloe knew Rena's family situation wasn't great, Rena didn't try to sugarcoat it.
She said, "This is such a fancy event. I can't go. My family's poor; I can't even afford a decent dress. If those stars find out you have a poor friend like me, they'll look down on you. Chloe, I better not go and embarrass you."
Rena's words struck a tender chord with Chloe. Rena was simply adorable. When Chloe stood her ground against Lucy back then, she was risking getting expelled from Quest University, yet she chose to stand by her side. If Chloe excluded her from the party simply because she couldn't afford a fancy dress, what kind of friend would that make her?
Chloe smiled and explained to Rena, "Rena, you're overthinking it. I don't care about family background when making friends. Even if you can't afford expensive clothes, you won't embarrass me because everyone will be wearing ordinary clothes that day. Plus, you mentioned before that you wanted to work at Michael's studio after graduation, right? It just so happens that Michael is also at home that day. I can help you secure a job with Michael when the time comes."
Rena was over the moon when she heard that Chloe is going to help her find a job at Michael's studio. "Okay, Chloe, I'll go, I'll go," she replied, her face lighting up with excitement.
Early Sunday morning, Chloe got up, and the butler and the housemaids had already arranged everything needed for the party.
Grant, Michael, and Liam were also dragged out of their warm beds by Chloe early in the morning.
Chloe stood with her hands on her hips, like a leader, giving each of them a stern talk. The Martin siblings never would have imagined that they would one day be scolded like this.
Chloe said, "Mic, you're handsome, good at talking, and a popular star in the circle. Today, I'll give you the important task of welcoming and seeing off guests. What do you think?"
Hearing this, Michael was immediately displeased. He was a top-tier star, and Chloe was treating him like a doorman? He immediately objected, "No, no, I'm not your doorman. Why should I do the job?"
Chloe smiled mysteriously, crossed her arms, and said indifferently, "Alright then, if you don't want to do it, don't. One of my relatives, Jessica Fairfax, is also on my guest list today. I was thinking of introducing you to her, but it seems unnecessary now."
Hearing the name Jessica, Michael's expression changed immediately. Who was Jessica Fairfax? She was a well-known big shot in the circle, and it was said that she held a lot of resources. Anyone she wanted to promote would definitely become famous.noveldrama
Although Michael had some connections through the Martin Family, he was still far behind someone like Jessica. Michael had tried to get to know Jessica through others, but she never responded.
He said, "No... I'll go, I'm willing to be your doorman, Chloe, as long as you introduce me to Jessica."
After saying this, Michael immediately got to work. He changed into formal clothes and quickly ran to the entrance.
Seeing Michael leave, Liam shook his head and was about to bounce too. This was a lame party, and he wasn't in the entertainment industry or business, so why bother sucking up to Chloe's friends?
Seeing Liam about to dip, Chloe had a plan to reel him back in. She tasted the food the butler had placed on the dining table and said disappointedly, "Oh, this dish doesn't taste good... I remember Zara loves this dish. Since it's not well-made, let's just scrap it."
Hearing Zara's name, Liam immediately perked up. Wasn't she his idol? For over a month, he had been trying to get closer to her by messages. Unfortunately, Zara would only chat with him when she was in a good mood, and wouldn't even reply when she wasn't.
He was really stressing about how to get his idol to notice him more. Now, knowing that Zara likes this dish, he had to keep an eye on the kitchen and make sure they nailed it.
Liam turned around, came to Chloe's side, grabbed the dish, and said to Chloe, "Remove it from the menu? If the dish doesn't taste good, have the chef redo it. Ugly girl, there are many guests today. I'll keep an eye on the kitchen."
After saying this, Liam quickly got busy.
With Michael and Liam gone, Grant, with one hand in his pocket, asked, "What can I do for you?"
Chloe, eager to distance herself from him, thought for a moment and said, "Grantie, you're suave, rich, and meticulous. How about you help me prepare some gifts for my friends?"
Chloe was very tactful in her speech, almost implying that he was just rich enough to be easily swayed.
Among the three heirs, Grant was the richest. Hosting a party and having him spend some money wasn't a big deal, right?
Grant didn't catch Chloe's implication. Since Chloe gave him a task, he happily went to do it. He went upstairs and called Stanley, asking him to quickly prepare some high- end gifts and send them to the Martin Mansion.
With everything meticulously arranged, all that was left was the arrival of the guests. Fate, however, had its own plans. As Stanley perused boutiques for the perfect gifts, he crossed paths with Sophia, who had never concealed her infatuation with Grant. When she learned that Chloe was hosting a party at the Martin Mansion and didn't invite her, Sophia's jealousy was fully displayed on her face.
In her view, if it weren't for Chloe's sudden appearance and the marriage contract binding Grant, Grant might have already responded to her advances.
It was all Chloe's fault, not only ruining her happiness but also making her look foolish
multiple times. This time, with Chloe hosting such a high-profile party at the Mansion, she couldn't let her have a good time. She wanted to make Chloe the most embarrassed person at the party.
Soon, Sophia began her actions.
At this time, Chloe, wearing a modest coat, was at the Martin Mansion, happily
chatting with her invited friends. Rena held Chloe's arm, full of admiration.
