Female Novel
Chapter 1507
Chloe glared at me. "Arianna, what do you want ?"
I fixed my gaze on her. "Didn't you say you were doing business? Don't you want my business?"
"You are a woman. If you want to humiliate me, you don't have to do that. What you're doing now isjust a waste of your time. If you hate me because of your child, I'm very sorry and I've also beenpunished. You don't have to humiliate me anymore," Her tone was calm and there was no sign ofher giving up.
I sighed helplessly. "Come on, just show me where you live. It shouldn't be far, right? Since youknow that you are at fault for what you did to Anne, you can't refuse any of my requests, can you?"
She glowered at me. After a long pause, she gave up and said, "Come with me!"
She took Shirley and I to an alley. After a while, I stopped and asked, "Don't you think you shouldhelp me?" Shirley was intoxicated. It was too hard for me to carry her on my own.
Chloe gave me a look, pursed her lips, and said lightly, "I can't help you. After severalchemotherapy sessions, I struggle to even walk by myself. I can't help you carry her. Believe it ornot, it's the truth."
I was stupefied. Then, I pursed my lips, shrugged my shoulders, and responded lightly, "Okay, then,lead the way!"
I couldn't possibly force her to carry Shirley with me, could I?
When we finally arrived at her place, I looked around and sighed. "You know, you can always goback to Ucrebury. Dr. Hammer will find a way to cure you. You will only get worse if you continuestaying at a place like this."
She poured me a glass of water with a cold expression on her face. "In the end, I will still die. It'sbetter to die at a place where I am willing to stay in. I've been so determined my whole life. I wantedto be successful, but I failed. Thus, I pray that I can be born into this city in my next life, so that I canbe closer to the things I want."
Chloe was the only person I could never understand. She came from a privileged background, buther outlook on life was inexplicable. She was eager to marry rich, so she targeted Hendrix first. Butafter realizing that Hendrix was a dead end, she shifted her target to Josiah. Her goal was crystalclear. She wanted to get on good terms with a man. But what made her want to marry these men?
Money?novelbin
But the Hammer family was not short of money!
Power?
Hendrix and Josiah themselves had no power.
Love?
That was even more impossible. If it was for love, she would not be able to move on so quickly. Shewas unfathomable.
"She and I need to stay here tonight," I declared and continued, "I'll pay you, provided that you staywith us tonight. Also, don't do that kind of business anymore. You clearly know what kind of peopleyou have to interact with. You are not in the pink of health. What if you contracted some otherdiseases? Do you want to die early? "
She narrowed her eyes at me. "Why do you care?"
"No, I don't. I don't have any reason to care about someone who doesn't matter to me. I just wantedto give you a reminder," I denied.
She sat on her small bed and let out a carefree laugh. "How ironic. I didn't think that the first personwho would care about me would be you, Arianna. Life is ironic!"
