Divorcing 388
Chapter 388 Anonymous Text
However, on second thought, Michael felt Maya was Chloe's cousin, and her successfully joining Paramount Airlines, even as an intern, was indeed something to celebrate. Encouraged by Maya, a few bolder employees also called out to Michael, "Mr. Shawn, it's a rare chance to relax, join us!"
"Yes, yes!"
Michael was handsome and wealthy; who wouldn't want to spend more time with him?
Even if he sat there silently with a cold expression, just looking at him was pleasing enough.
Michael thought it might be nice to see Chloe and go home together, so he said to everyone, "I'll choose the restaurant then."
"Yay, great!"
Maya joyfully made a victory gesture to her colleagues behind her, looking very cute.
The only one less enthusiastic was the other intern who had joined with her. She quietly tugged on a colleague's sleeve. "Do you know who Mr. Shawn's wife is?" Coming from a rural background, she had moved to the big city for university and always worked part-time jobs. She wasn't familiar with the world of the wealthy. "Mr. Shawn's wife? Her name is Chloe. Why?"
"Nothing, just asking."
Elly Conway shook her head and started searching on her phone.
Chloe had completed two projects in her studio at Urban Lane.
Leaning back in her swivel chair, she felt much more relaxed. "You're pregnant now; you should minimize screen time."
Quinn reminded her with concern.
He believed electronic devices emitted radiation.
"Got it, you nag."
"Why is Quinn the nag?"
Jessica leaned close to Candy, curious.
"Because Quinn manages our entire team, like both a father and a mother. He's very strict about whether Chloe drinks cold or hot water."
Quinn felt helpless but accepted it.
Chloe turned off her computer and planned to take her team out for dinner.
Just as she stepped downstairs, a notification popped up on Twitter.
She rarely posted anything on Twitter, with her last post being the one about Lucy.
Now, someone messaged her, which made her feel somewhat novel.
Opening it, she was speechless.
"Who is it? What's going on?"Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Candy squeezed over, insisting on seeing the message.
[Chloe, I am an employee at your husband's company and just started today. Maya is my colleague, and she is using a dinner invitation to cling to Mr. Shawn. If you have time, please come over. The address is...]
Candy glanced at Chloe.
"Are you going? It seems like your cousin is trying to steal your husband."
Only one message could be sent from an unconnected account, so there was no picture.
Chloe bent down and got into the car. "Let's go and join the fun."
She wasn't jealous of Maya and Michael being together, but they weren't divorced yet, and Maya was her cousin.
She was worried if this got exposed online again, it would bring a lot of trouble.
The car soon arrived at the address given by the stranger. Looking up at the restaurant's lavish decor, Chloe chuckled.
She thought, "Maya really went all out for this dinner."
After asking the waiter for Michael's room, Chloe told Candy and the others to eat something outside while she went alone to find Michael.
"I'll go with you, in case Maya bullies you."
Who wouldn't want to witness some gossip?
Candy volunteered immediately.
"I know what you're up to. It's just Maya. I can handle her."
Chloe went upstairs alone while Quinn watched her back with concern.
Upstairs, when she opened the door to the private room, everyone who had been cheering turned to look at her, stunned to see Chloe.
But then, as if remembering something, they immediately said, "Mrs. Shawn, why are you so late? Didn't Mr. Shawn leave with Maya just ten minutes ago?"
Chloe felt something was off. "You said Maya helped Michael leave?"
Her expression was so serious that the previously lively room fell silent. "Mrs. Shawn, you... didn't know?"
