Chapter 72 Didn't Take Good Care of Your Painting

Chloe couldn't just stand by when it came to Zara.

As Herbert's hand got closer to Zara's face, Chloe stepped in. She reached out and blocked Herbert's arm, saying, "Herbert, what's more important, a woman or those paintings worth billions? How about we talk about the paintings first?" Chloe's words grabbed Herbert's attention. He turned to look at her, and when he saw the big mole on her face, he dismissed all his thoughts.

"Talk about the paintings? Can you make the decisions?" Herbert eyed Chloe suspiciously. "Ugly girl, you should know what happens if you mess with me. I can cut that mole off your face, believe it or not?"

Herbert's words were meant to scare Chloe. Normally, Chloe would have lost her cool, but this was different. Several of her people were being held by Herbert's men, and with so many of them around, even if she could escape, the Gibson family folks wouldn't be able to get away from Herbert's grip.

So, the best move now was to use her smarts.

Chloe smiled slightly and said, "I can make the decisions. It's just a few paintings; you can take them. But I have a condition: you have to let us go and stop bothering the Gibson family. Deal?" Herbert had to take a second look at the ugly girl in front of him after hearing Chloe's words. Who was she? What was her deal? Why could she so casually give away paintings worth billions? "Ugly girl has some guts." Herbert started to admire Chloe a bit.

"Herbert, it's just a few paintings, just some money. Anything that can be solved with money isn't a problem." Chloe pulled Zara to her side to keep Herbert from touching her again. Herbert hesitated.
