Become the Wife of A CEO

Ashlee was Clara’s half-sister. Although they shared the same father, they grew up in radically different environments and met very rarely. Thus, they were not close to each other at all.

Knowing that Ashlee was Darren’s fiancée, Clara was tired of Ashlee’s disingenuous kindness. She didn’t know why Ashlee made this call.

“Clara.” Ashlee’s sweet voice sounded from the phone. “You don’t seem happy to hear from me.”

“Yes.” Clara said in an impatient tone, “By all means, tell me, to what do I owe the pleasure?”

“I have great news for you.” Ashlee said happily, “I’ve heard that Aunt Helena is getting better, right?”

Clara got nervous.

She wondered why Ashlee knew so much about it.

“Then what’s wrong?” Clara’s voice turned colder.

“Clara, don’t be so cold. Anyway, I’m very worried about Aunt Helena.” Ashlee’s tone remained disingenuous. “When I heard that you had to pay more for the medical bills, I am very concerned about you as well, so I want to do you a favor.”

Ashlee wanted to to help her? How ridiculous!

Clara sneered, “Then what can you do?”

“I have a friend who is in charge of a magazine. She is starving for personnel, so she offers a high salary.” Ashlee continued, “Clara, you are so outstanding. If you join her, you’ll definitely earn more than now.”

Clara got want Ashlee meant.

Ashlee wanted Clara to leave GLAM.

And then Clara could be kept away from Darren.

Thinking of this, Clara sneered. “Ashlee, you’re afraid that Darren still has feelings for me, right?”

Hearing this, Ashlee turned pale. She didn’t expect Clara to say it in such a straightforward way.

Ashlee bit her red lips, but her voice remained sweet. “Clara, what are you talking about? You’re a married woman who used to be a prostitute. You think too highly of yourself.”

Clara froze.

What Ashlee said was very unkind. It was typical of Ashlee to say this in a sweet tone.

Clara’s tone became cold. “Ashlee, no matter what you want, I won’t change my job.”

She knew Ashlee very well, so Clara didn’t think she would be well paid in the new magazine. Instead, Ashlee might well take advantage of this chance to torture Clara.

Rejected, Ashlee couldn’t bear it anymore. She said in an angry voice, “Clara! You deserve no such attention!”

“It seems you are irked.” Clara scoffed. “Relax. I’m not interested in Darren at all, so you don’t have to be so nervous.”

Ashlee was irritated!

Clara was lying! That slut! She was just playing hard-to-get!”

“Clara!” Ashlee said coldly, “Leave GLAM, or I’ll show you no mercy!”

Clara sneered with disdain. “Seriously? Ashlee, what can you do?”

Ashlee thought, “Clara, you’re asking for it!”

A smile played on Ashlee’s lips. “I can make your life a living hell.”

Ashlee’s voice was sweet but cold, which sent a chill down Clara’s spine.

But Clara said impatiently, “I don’t care. Anyway, I need the job in GLAM, and I don’t like your fiancé at all!”

After Clara finished speaking, she didn’t bother to talk to Ashlee anymore, so she hung up the phone.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

On the other end of the phone, Ashlee almost freaked out!

“Clara!

I’ve given you a chance to leave GLAM! However, you don’t take it. You will regret it!”

Ashlee quickly picked up the phone and dialed a number.

“This is Ashlee Middleton.” Ashlee’s voice was cold and resentful. “Send all those photos out. Yes, send them to Darren Kirkland. Be careful. Don’t let others find out.”

After hanging up the phone, Ashlee remained furious. She clenched her fists and her red-painted nails almost pierced the palm of her hands!

Ashlee still remembered the first time she saw Darren.

Darren always thought that the first time they met each other was at a reception half a year ago. But in fact, Ashlee had met him three years ago.

It was at University of Zhanard. Ashlee happened to be traveling in Hainding with her friends. Her father Glenn asked her to bring something to Clara. Although Ashlee was unwilling to do that, as a good daughter, she didn’t refuse.

Then, Ashlee met Clara and Darren.

Ashlee still remembered that it was a sunny day. Darren was riding a bicycle and Clara was sitting behind him. In a white shirt, Darren looked like a prince from the fairytale.

Ashlee was flipped at first sight.

They didn’t talk for a long time, so neither Clara nor Darren could remember it, but it was deeply imprinted in her mind.

After leaving Hainding, Ashlee asked someone to investigate Darren and was surprised by the result.

According to Clara, Darren was a poor man who had to rely on his bursary. But in fact, he was one of the Kirklands!

Ashlee rejoiced over this news!

No wonder she fell in love with Darren! Ashlee was proud of her taste.

Since then, Ashlee made up her mind that she would marry nobody but Darren!

However, Darren had eyes only for Clara back then.

Ashlee remembered Clara’s happy expression when she received the call from Darren at home.

Ashlee had secretly visited the University of Zhanard to see Darren, only to see that Darren was very gentle to Clara.

Ashlee knew she was jealous of Clara.

She was actually jealous of Clara, this illegitimate daughter!

Ashlee disliked Clara since she was a child. Besides, she also disdained Clara and thought she was far superior to Clara.

Thus, Ashlee was very surprised by the fact that she was jealous of Clara.

This made Ashlee start to hate Clara!

That was why Ashlee plotted against Clara two years ago. Ashlee wanted to ruin Clara and showed it to Darren so that Darren would hate Clara!

Ashlee succeeded. Darren broke up with Clara, returned to the Kirkland family, and studied abroad. Ashlee successfully met him abroad, dated him, and got engaged with him.

Everything went as Ashlee planned. However, after they returned to Stratmont, everything changed.

Darren became Clara’s ultimate boss. Ashlee wondered whether it was a coincidence or that Darren arranged it on purpose.

Ashlee got nervous about what happened between Darren and Ashlee these months.

Therefore, Ashlee decided to show her ace in the hole.

Ashlee thought, “Clara, I will do whatever it takes to prevent you from approaching Darren!”
