The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Chapter 1553

Wendy was managing the guests with a touch of grace that seemed a little overdone. Chloe raised an eyebrow, but certainly wasn’t going to call her out on it. After all, tonight’s business dinner was her hard work. Why not let someone else take the reins for a change?

Their interaction inevitably drew the attention of everyone around them.
