From Divorce To Dominance

Chapter 112

Inside the room, Darren, who was silently playing with his lighter, suddenly furrowed his brows when he heard this. His deep, cold eyes gazed through the thick screen towards the outside, but the two people outside were completely unaware. Vivian looked at the tantrum-throwing Chloe in front of her. She was so furious that she wanted to strangle Chloe. Chloe always threatened her with this matter.

Ever since Chloe wanted to enter showbiz and when she needed money or resources, she would bring up this matter. Vivian was utterly fed up with it. If she wasn't about to marry Darren and didn't want to cause any trouble right now, she would have found someone to get rid of Chloe. Once Chloe was dead, everything would be solved. Chloe wouldn't be there to threaten her every few days. A cold glint t flashed through Vivian's eyes but quickly disappeared. She took a deep breath and tried to soften her tone, "Yes, Chloe, I know. You were the one who discovered Darren five years ago. You were the one who saved him. It's my fault that I took your credit, but haven't I treated you well these past five years?" Chloe a awkwardly pursed her

lips.

Vivian noticed her little actions and continued, "I am about to marry into the Luther family. Once I become Darren's wife, you'll also enjoy wealth and luxury. Not only that, I'll introduce you to some rich heirs so you can also marry into a wealthy family. A bright future is ahead for both of us. Are you sure you want to ruin it for both of us?"

Over the past few years, Chloe had gotten used to the extravagant, spendthrift lifestyle. She was naturally lazy and vain, so upon hearing this, she hesitated.

She murmured, "I didn't really mean to tell Darren..."C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

Vivian understandingly took her hand and led her to sit down. "I know you're upset because of Natalie and that's why you're so emotional, right?"

"That's right. That bitch." Chloe gritted her teeth fiercely. Can we get rid of

her?"

of her?

Vivian's mind raced, but she shook her head helplessly.

"The performance is about to start, causing an accident now obviously doesn't work, and bribing Leon isn't realistic either.....

"So we're just going to let Natalie be so arrogant?" Chloe's face turned red again. "And to make matters worse, I'll have to see her on the dating show. Just seeing her disgusts me." Vivian paused and comforted her, "Actually, her joining the dating show might be a good thing for us."

Chloe frowned at her, "What do you mean?"

"First of all, the netizens might like her spoiled temperament during the selection, but the guys on the dating show are usually wealthy and powerful. Who would bother with a pretentious girl who can't do any housework? Over time, who would put up with her? Who's her? Her will drop."

Chloe thought Vivian made a good point and couldn't help but agree. "That makes sense."

Encouraged by this, Vivian continued, "Secondly, if you go on the dating show with her, you can dig up some dirt and reveal it at the right moment. That'll make people dislike her even more." Chloe agreed.

rean, Chloe

"Thirdly, we can slowly figure out how to deal with her on the dating show, causing some unexpected accidents.

After all, mishaps do happen during filming, right?"

Chloe could nod

Seeing that Chloe had calmed down, Vivian subtly ground her teeth and said, "Trust me once more. How could I ever neglect you? You're my only family. If I'm happy and doing well, I can pave an even better path for you. Don't you agree?"

At that moment, the naive Chloe felt her face burn with embarrassment.

She felt that she had been acting too unreasonable and stuck out her tongue, mumbling, "Vivian... I'm sorry.."

"There's no need for apologies between us." Vivian patted her hand gently, smiling warmly and kindly. "Just listen to me. I won't hurt you. Focus on your performance today.

Getting into the dating show is what matters."

After expressing her gratitude to Vivian again, Chloe finally left the lounge.

AS as the door closed, Vivian's

She angrily kicked over the trash can beside her. This was infuriating. Being so subservient and speaking so nicely to such an idiot was unbearable. She didn't want to spend the rest of her life as Darren's wife and be threatened by Chloe. She had to come up with a way to handle Chloe.

Vivian was feeling restless and had no appetite. She planned to take a rest on the bed in the inner room.

Stepping in her high heels, she walked step by step towards the room. Just then, her phone suddenly rang. A message from Darren popped up. [Darren: I'm at the base entrance. Come pick me up.]

Vivian's face instantly lit up with a smile. She turned around and quickly left the room. The room returned to silence.

Darren gently pressed the lighter, and the blue flame flickered with a heavy sense of sadness. But his dark eyes were even deeper and gloomier, like an endless night.

He flicked the lighter on and off, then finally lit a cigarette. With the cigarette hanging loosely from his lips, he got up and walked out slowly. What he was thinking about made the corners of his mouth curl into a cold and fleeting smile.
