Chapter 642
Seeing Lisa in such agony was hard for Chloe to ignore. She cut to the chase: "I'll be there soon."
In no time, Chloe's car was once again parked in the driveway of the Meadows family's garden villa. She walked in to find Jacob lounging on the couch, eyes glued to stock market updates. He huffed at her arrival and turned away.
Chloe didn't pay him any mind and headed straight upstairs. Jacob, irked, stood up, pointing at her retreating figure: "Chloe, do you even care about me anymore?"
Ignoring the outburst, Chloe made her way to Lisa's room, where Leah was nursing Lisa with some water. After a sip, Lisa, with a bit of newfound energy, began to lash out.
"Chloe, I'm going to kill you. One day, I swear, I'll do it!"Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
Chloe approached slowly, her voice icy: "Haven't you already 'killed' me once?"
The room went dead silent. Lisa's eyes were a mix of anger and fear as they met Chloe's. Leah looked taken aback, asking, "Chloe, what do you mean by that?"
Chloe wasn't in the mood to elaborate. She brushed it off with a simple, "It's nothing."
Lisa feared Chloe had uncovered something. But with Ricky gone, there was no proof. Even if Chloe claimed they knew each other and conspired, she could just accuse Chloe of slander.
"Chloe, I won't let you get away with this."
Chloe smirked, "You're quite resilient. Seems like I wasted my time today." With that, she turned to leave.
Before Leah could intervene, Lisa rolled onto the floor. "Chloe, please, come back. It hurts so much, I can't take it anymore. Please, help me."
Lisa struggled to crawl forward, her arms too weak to bear the pain. She lay there, crying and pleading for mercy, truly at her limit.
Chloe looked at her with disdain but

quickly set about fixing Lisa's dislocated bones. Lisa could movet again almost immediately and scuttled behind Leah, genuinely terrified of Chloe-the woman who could dislocate bones without a second thought.
As Chloe entered, she noticed a gold-embossed invitation card on Lisa's vanity. The design caught her eye-it was familiar. She walked over and, just as she thought, it wasza QUEEN jewelry exhibition invite. Chloe had sketched that design herself.
She opened it for a closer look, but Lisa rushed over, snatching it from her hands. "Chloe, what are you doing? This is the QUEEN jewelry exhibition invite. Don't you dare damage it."
Chloe raised an eyebrow, puzzled, "An invite to the QUEEN jewelry exhibition, only five hundred worldwide, and you've got one?"
Lisa's face lit up with smugness. "Chloe, don't underestimate me. I got an invite from QUEEN. You must be jealous."
With a sarcastic edge, Lisa added, "As Mrs. Connor, didn't you get one? Looks like being the Sartori family's young madam doesn't have much pull after all!"
