Rural Belle & Three Heirs

Giselle snapped, "Officer, don't buy into her crap. She's engaged to Grant, the CEO of the Martin Group, but she's also the Davis Family's heiress. Wouldn't it make more sense for her to merge the Martin Group into the Davis Family's assets rather than just being the lady of the Martin Group?"

The police, upon hearing that Chloe was the famous only heiress of the Davis Family, began to reconsider their suspicions about her.

If that were true, Chloe would indeed be a suspect again.

At this moment, Chloe spoke up from the side, "I'm feeling pretty good right now... at least better than you, Ms. Rodriguez, who tirelessly works for others. I run my small company for myself, to make some money."

She lifted her head, staring at Giselle with disdain, and continued, "Ms. Rodriguez, although you're a manager of the Martin Group, in the end, you're still making money for me."

A hint of pride flashed in Chloe's eyes, "The thought of marrying into the Martin family, and becoming your boss' wife makes me feel even better."

She adjusted her stance, folding her arms across her chest, and looked down at Giselle, her tone growing more mocking, "Ms. Rodriguez, keep up the good work. I truly appreciate your dedication."noveldrama

Chloe's words stabbed Giselle's heart like sharp spikes, causing her face to turn both pale and flushed. The hard truth was undeniable: even if she was a manager of the Martin Group, she was still just a high-level employee.

From a family perspective, Chloe would call her "Aunt," but if Chloe didn't respect her, she could fire her at any time.

Because of the issue with the letter of intent, Giselle had already fallen out with Chloe. Expecting Chloe to respect her was unlikely.

"Chloe, the officers are investigating. Stop messing around," Giselle said angrily, reminding Chloe.

Chloe smiled and turned to the officers, "Officers, I suggest you investigate all the employees who entered the CEO's office that day. Logically, they are more suspicious than I am."

"Especially Mr. Martin's secretary, Isidora. She has access to many confidential documents, and I think she's more suspicious."

"By the way, this secretary has only been with the Martin Group for a few days. I'm

worried she might be an undercover agent from a rival company."

With just a few words, Chloe shifted the police's suspicion onto Isidora.

Since Giselle considered Isidora her savior, Chloe decided to drag Isidora into the mess, making Giselle scramble to handle it.

She wanted to see if Isidora would also need to provide evidence of her innocence.

Hearing Chloe implicate Isidora, Giselle panicked.

She quickly explained, "Officers, Isidora is a trusted employee and Mr. Martin's secretary. She has good character and wouldn't do such a thing."

"Besides, since the letter of intent went missing, she has been actively helping to find it. I don't think she could have done it..."

As soon as Giselle said this, Chloe casually added, "You think? Ms. Rodriguez, are the officers investigating, or are you? Do you think your opinion can help them close the case?"

"Just because you trust her character doesn't mean the officers can't suspect her. Don't worry, the officers won't let a bad person go or wrongfully accuse a good person."

Chloe's guidance changed the direction of the investigation.

The officers exchanged a glance and said, "Ms. Rodriguez, please take us to see Miss Faye."

Hearing this, Giselle couldn't refuse. She had only wanted to cause trouble for Chloe but ended up in a mess herself.

Although Giselle was furious, as the company's CFO, she led the officers to find Isidora.

After the officers left, Chloe and Zara went to the office to talk.

Zara wiped the sweat from her forehead, relieved.

She asked Chloe, "Chloe, what did you do to offend Ms. Rodriguez? I heard she's Grant's aunt and the CFO of the Martin Group."

Chloe nodded, "Yeah..."

After confirming Giselle's identity, Zara couldn't help but worry for Chloe. "Chloe, you're in big trouble."

Chloe looked at Zara incredulously. "Why am I in trouble?"

Zara analyzed, "Giselle is Grant's aunt and a senior family member. You argued with her today, and she might speak ill of you to the Martin Family."

"You're dating Grant now, but if she opposes you, it will be hard for you to marry him."

"I think the engagement is unreliable..."

Zara's concerns were valid, and Chloe was a bit worried too.

But she put on a nonchalant facade and said, "If I can't marry him, then so be it. Honestly, I hope Giselle has the power to cancel our engagement. If that happens, I should thank Giselle."

Chloe's words were insincere. For some reason, the thought of her engagement with the Martin Family being in jeopardy made her uneasy.

Could she admit she didn't like other women being too close to Grant?

Chloe spent the afternoon busy with her company and had barbecue with Zara in the evening.

When they saw a TV preview of their upcoming reality show, Chloe was delighted.

It seemed that once the show aired, her company would start making money.

These days, she had been developing her company while keeping an eye on Grant's new company.

From what she gathered, there was no business progress or cooperation from Grant's company.

Grant's inaction puzzled her. Was he so preoccupied with the missing cooperation letter that he forgot about their bet?

Chloe didn't know.

That night, she returned to the Martin Mansion. The house was quiet, indicating Grant wasn't home.

Chloe greeted Mia and headed upstairs to rest, only to run into Liam at the staircase

corner.

Since Liam moved out, Chloe hadn't seen him, not even at school.

Liam seemed to have gone through something. He looked darker and more muscular.

Seeing Chloe, Liam greeted her. "I heard from Zara that you've been having some trouble lately?" He got straight to the point
