Chapter 280

Ethan was furious.“What’s your attitude?”

Alice countered, “What injustice did she suffer?”

“You offended Mrs. Yates. Don’t think Mrs. Wilson’s support excuses you.” “You think I’d be like Chloe, abandoning the unwell Mrs. Wilson to fawn over Mrs. Yates? You’d completely offend the Wilsons. Do you want to ruin your chances in San Francisco? Noah agreed.“Alice’s right. She saved the day. Chloe only caused trouble; she deserved it!” Seeing Chloe’s distress, Ethan said coldly, That’s settled.”

Ethan said, “You don’t get a say; the foundation isn’t yours yet. Chloe will handle this once; you’ll be in charge afterward. Is that better?”

Chloe smirked; she wouldn’t let the opportunity slip away.

Noah sided with Alice. “Brother, isn’t that favoritism?”
