Chapter 18
Chase could hear the buzzing sound in his ears when he heard Alfred’s voice.
Bella didn’t come back home because she went to have a meal with Alfred.
Raw anger shot through Chase at the thought of this.
No wonder Bella avoided making eye contact andtalking with him when he was about to leave the Song family a while ago.
Hmph, did she go against her heart and meet up with Alfred in order to get on the good side of the Helping Hands Medical Center?
Didn’t she know that she was putting herself in danger despite having a much easier way readily available right in front of her?
She agreed to have a meal together with him, but she ended up making him wait alone like a fool.
Chase hung up the phone, his eyes turning moist.
He shut his eyes. It took him five minutes to calm down.
When he opened his eyes again, hin gaze was filled with indifference.
He took out his cell phone and made a call to Chloe.”Take down all the companies under Alfred and his family!”
Chloe was having her meal in the Helping Hands Medical Center. When she heard this, she almost dropped her phone.
Since the day before she’d been on the edge of her seat whenever she received Chase’s call.
Every time Chase called her, he was sending her different versions and scales of horrors and surprises.
“Do you know what you’re talking about?” Chloe asked Chase depressingly.
He replied with a cool indifference “Ofcourse, I do Are you in the office?”
Chloe asked cautiously.
Chase gave an indifferent nod.
“But after all, we are still a reputable and much respected clinic, Chloe said hesitantly. After a while, she continued, “If we were to use some tricks behind their backs, I’m afraid that we will taint our image.”
Chase nodded again. “You’re right. So, let’s defeat them openly and honestly.”
Hearing this, Chloe almost fell to the ground.
She wanted to knock some senses into him so much.
“Do you know how powerful the Timber Group is? Do you know how much manpower they have? It is going to be very difficult even if we were to make a move behind their back. Do you think we will stand a chance of beating them if we confront them head-on? We would need to have a solid reason and a plan if you want to take them down. Or are you deliberately attempting to rain our medical center?” Chloe went ballistic and roared at Chade, paying no heed to her image.
However, Chase did not move all inch, his remained cold. “A solid reason? Let’s say they are manufacturing fake medical products.”
Chloe’s head was about to explode. She was completely speechless What a solid reason he gave!
No matter how she looked at it, it sounded like a groundless claim Chase made up Chase repeated, “Do as I say,”
Chloe’s anger was ignited again.
Who did he think he was to act like a tyrant every time?
Chloe thought, “Sure, I am going to let it pass as of now, but I’m not going to hold it in for the rest of my life!”
Judging on Chase’s poker face, Chloe knew right away that Alfred must be laying his finger on Bella again.
So, was Bella the reason Chase went furious?
Regardless, he should be more realistic!
Why must he ruin the medical center for the sake of his own benefits?
Chloe was too lazy to argue with Chase, hence she decided to report this to her grandfather, Harper Wang directly.
She gave Harper a tongue-lashing for at least ten minutes on the phone before Harper told her, “Do as he says.”
Chloe threw her cell phone onto the ground this time.
Both of them-the young and the old-must have gone insane!
Chase, being the young one was frivolous, arrogant, and stubborn! Meanwhile, Harper, the old one turned a deaf ear to all her concerns. Chloe was so pissed off!
All the effort she poured in this medical center was going to be ruined by both of them.
At this moment, Sophia entered the room with a confused look. “Oh, you’re here, Chase I’m going to report to you that the 100 bottles of sample ointments you asked for has been produced.”
Chase nodded and complemented, “Good job. I’ll get Chloe to raise your pay.”
Chloe’s fury sprang to life in an instant. She took a pillow and threw it at Chase.
“By the way, Chase, this ointment does not have a name yet. Why don’t you give it a name?’ Sophia didn’t notice that Chloe was on the verge of exploding.
For no reason, Chase’s heart missed a beat. “Let’s call it the… Cherry Blossom.”
“Cherry Blossom…”Sophia repeated and clapped her hands. “What a beautiful name! From the name, I can picture a chivalrous gentleman standing beside a lady with the fairest skin in the world. Chase, you are a genius! By the way, should we run the test now?”
Chase shook his head and answered, “No, let’s put i it aside now. I have to take down Alfred first.”
Chloe was really going to explode.
When she heard the name Chase gave to the product a while ago, she had to admit that Chase was indeed a smart cookie.
However, in the blink of an eye, he went back to the topic of getting his revenge again.
Did Alfred do something as bad as a wild beast? Did he ravage Chase’s ancestral graves?
What did Alfred do to make Chase focus on destroying his family while putting aside something as important as testing the ointment?
“Go to hell, both of you!” Chloe bellowed and slammed the door.
“Where’s your another Spring Bracelet?” Chase asked before she went off. Chloe staggered to her feet and yelled, “Stay the f*ck away from me!”
When Chase returned home, He found Bella sleeping on the table.
His heart could not help aching for her as he walked up to her. He wanted to pat her head, but his hand froze in mid-air when Alfred’s voice in the call came to his mind.
He pondered, “What are you thinking about, Bella?”
At this very moment, Bella made a groan before she turned around and saw Chase. Her face immediately lit up. “Chase, you’re back. I’ve been waiting for you.”
Chase glanced at the food on the table which had already went cold and asked, “Didn’t you eat with Alfred?”
Bella’s eyes darkened right away, her smile frozen on her face. I’m sorry, Chase. I should have told you. Alfred said that I can pay off the favor I owed him if I had dinner with him. I believed his words. However, when I went to the washroom, you called me…”
Bella lowered her head and added, “Then I have a quarrel with him. I reckon that you must be furious, so I came back right away. Only to find i that you were not at home…”
Bella peeped at Chase and mumbled, “Are you still angry at me?”
Hearing her explanation, Chase’s heart melted at once. What a silly woman….Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
“I’ll go heat up the food,” said Chase “I’ll go with you.” Bella followed behind him, helping him to carry the dishes to the kitchen as though she wanted to stick to Chase all the time.
“Chase, there are so many things that happened today. It must be so difficult for you,” said Bella hesitantly while they were in the kitchen.
Chase’s expression did not change. He knew that t Bella must be feeling much more devastated than him.
“Sigh, at times, I really wish to move out of this family once I have enough money to buy us a small house. I don’t mind any kind of hardship as long as we are living together. Our life would be i much easier compared with now. At least we don’t have to get bullied by them,” Bella lamented.
Although Bella did not mean that at all, her words had already etched in Chase’s heart without her realizing it.
“How big house do you want to buy?” He asked, his eyes sparkling with tenderness After hearing Chloe’s answer, Chase hung up the phone.
Ten minutes later, he rushed to the Helping Hands Medical Center and appeared in front of Chloe.
