Chapter 8 His Terms

Asher awkwardly rubbed his nose and gestured for the club manager to come over.

As the noise died down, Chloe leaned against the side of the stage and tried to catch her breath. Her chest was heaving after the crazy dance, looking incredibly alluring.

She then casually brushed her long hair back. When her eyes met with Michael, who was standing below the stage, she froze immediately.

Although Chloe appeared calm, her heart was beating frantically.

After all, she still had some feelings left for him after loving him for so long.

"Get down there," Michael ordered, looking very angry.

"Why should I?" Chloe turned him straight down with a poker

face.

Michael felt his head throb even more at her words, and he smirked menacingly. "This club is mine. You think you can just leave as you want?" Apparently, he wasn't gonna let her go.

Chloe then took a deep breath. She'd be lying if she said she had zero feelings left for Michael. But since she had already decided to leave him, there was nothing she should be afraid of. A while later, she finally managed to calm down.

Chloe didn't know where her shoes had ended up. So, she walked barefoot to the edge of the stage and leaned forward slightly.

She mocked, "Mr. Shawn, are you making such a big fuss just to drag me away for a divorce now, or are you planning to take me home to make babies?"

Asher, who had been secretly watching the drama from a short distance away, couldn't help but snicker. "Ha!"

Chloe struck him as a tender and submissive housewife before.

So, he was quite surprised that she turned out to be so feisty.

When Michael death-stared him, he felt a chill down his spine. Then he quietly shuffled a few steps back. But his curiosity got the better of him, and he perked up his ears to eavesdrop again. Michael paid him no mind and turned to look at Chloe again, who stirred his emotions intensely.

He then spoke irritably with a deep voice, "You're still my wife and a member of the Shawn family until our divorce is finalized. Cut it out. You can't afford to tarnish the Shawn family's reputation."

Sneering, Chloe retorted, "Oh, really? Besides you and your family, who on earth knows that I'm your wife, Michael? Why bother clearing the place? No one would recognize me anyway." With that, she jumped off the stage and began walking barefoot on the cold floor toward Michael, who looked like he wanted to
