Rural Belle & Three Heirs

Stanley was excited, "When it comes to winning over women, I've gotten way more experience than you. As long as Isidora sticks around, Miss Davis is gonna get more and more jealous.

You can use Isidora to put on some shows in front of Miss Davis. When she realizes you're a catch she can't live without, marrying her will be a piece of cake.

And then, the Davis Family's..."

Stanley trailed off, but Grant, caught up in his excitement, didn't really notice.

He nodded, smiled slightly, and said slowly, "Indeed, you have a point. Chloe keeps rejecting me because she's afraid to face her true feelings for me."

He paused, showing a hint of hesitation, and continued, "But, if I use Isidora to provoke Chloe, wouldn't that be somewhat underhanded?"

Grant, ever the upright man, wasn't one to take pleasure in manipulating and controlling women. He always adhered to principles of fairness and respect, especially when it came to matters of the heart. He was concerned that such behavior would violate his principles and boundaries, and might even cause harm to Chloe.

Stanley, hearing Grant's concerns, waved dismissivel. "Mr. Martin, you just need to think about it differently. Why should others be able to use you, but you can't use them?"

Stanley's words had a deeper meaning, and Grant smiled slightly, agreeing with Stanley's idea.

Meanwhile, Chloe was in class at Quest University. Zara's calls kept coming in. At first, Chloe ignored them, but Zara kept calling back.

Thinking Zara might have something important, Chloe sneaked out of the classroom and answered the call.

As soon as she picked up, Zara spoke urgently. "Chloe, you need to come to our office right away. Something's happened."

"What happened?" Chloe was nervous.

Zara wasn't usually this flustered, so it had to be something serious.

"The police are here. They want to see the legal representative of our company..."

Before Zara could finish, Chloe heard someone speaking on Zara's end. "When is your legal representative arriving? If they don't show up soon, we're going to lock up your company's doors..."

Hearing this, Chloe frowned and her hand trembled slightly as she held the phone. She told Zara, "Don't worry, I'm on my way."

After hanging up, Chloe sent a message to Rena to ask for a leave of absence, then hailed a cab and headed straight to her company.

As soon as she arrived at the company's entrance, several newly hired employees surrounded her.

"Miss Davis, thank goodness you're here. The police are here to shut down our company."

"Yeah, and some other department says we stole something and wants to search our company."

"Miss Davis, our company just started. Did we offend someone we shouldn't have?" Everyone's chatter made Chloe uneasy.

After offering a few brief words of comfort to her employees, she followed one of them to the company's meeting room. As soon as she walked in, she saw that Giselle and her team had already taken up half of the small conference room.

Several police officers were questioning Zara off to the side.

Though Zara managed the small company, she had no idea how to answer the police's questions.

Seeing Chloe, Zara quickly pulled her over. "Officers, this is Miss Davis, our company's legal representative. She can explain everything."

Zara turned to Chloe. "Chloe, Ms. Rodriguez is accusing you of stealing their company's letter of intent to develop our small company. You need to explain to the officers."

Zara's words almost made Chloe laugh in anger.

She glanced at the confident Giselle and suddenly thought of a childhood fable.

A wolf and a lamb were drinking water by the river. The wolf wanted to eat the lamb,

so it said, "You're dirtying my water..."

At this moment, Giselle had the same look as that wolf.

She wanted to frame Chloe and came up with such a flimsy excuse.

The Martin Group was a publicly traded company, and even one of their smallest subsidiaries was vastly larger than Chloe's media company.

Using their letter of intent to grow her small company? Not only would that be overkill, but there also seemed to be no conceivable connection between the two.

"Miss Davis, Ms. Rodriguez from the Martin Group says you stole their letter of intent. She reported it to the police, so we're here to investigate," one of the officers said to Chloe.

Chloe stood straight and replied, "I didn't steal anything."

"But the Martin Group provided video evidence of you entering their CEO Mr. Martin's office," the officer presented the evidence.

Chloe immediately countered, "I wasn't the only one who entered the CEO's office. Shouldn't everyone who went in before the letter was lost be investigated?"noveldrama

"But Ms. Rodriguez says you were the only non-employee to enter the office that morning. How do you explain that?"

The officer's implication was clear: as the only non-employee, Chloe was the least trustworthy.

This wasn't the police's investigative strategy but Giselle's deliberate guidance. Chloe smiled. "How do I explain? Officer, I don't need to explain at all. Didn't the Martin Group employees tell you my identity?

I'm the fiancée of the Martin Group's CEO. If nothing goes wrong, I'll be the future mistress of the Martin Group.

In other words, the Martin Group will soon be my family's business. Do you think I need to steal a letter of intent at this point? What good would it do me?

Using it to develop my small company? That's a joke. Wouldn't it be easier to rely on the Martin Group for a living?"

Chloe's explanation was reasonable, and the two officers handling the case were immediately conflicted.

Indeed, if Chloe was Grant's fiancée, she had no reason to take the letter of intent. After all, nothing was more comfortable than being the boss's wife.

The officers, however, were skeptical of the Martin Family's taste, wondering if they had

a problem with their aesthetic judgment in choosing such an unattractive girl as their future mistress.

Seeing the officers swayed by Chloe, Giselle panicked.
