Chapter 174: Chapter 174: It Seems Like All Rich People Have Some Serious Illness!

Selene Wilson crossed her arms in front of her chest, standing there and speaking casually.

Her demeanor made it seem as if sending Chloe Simpson to prison was as simple as an everyday task.

For a moment, Liam Johnson, Gabriella Dyer, and Alexander Johnson all froze in place.

Let alone Chloe Simpson.

She stared at Selene Wilson in disbelief.

Selene Wilson actually wanted to send her to prison?

What exactly was this woman up to?

One moment she was speaking up for her, and the next she was ready to throw her to the wolves.

If it weren’t for Selene Wilson’s social standing and the countless information Chloe had read about her before,

she might truly suspect this Eldest Young Lady of the Wilson Family had some sort of psychological disorder—something not quite right.

"Selene, this isn’t a great idea. If I could, I’d probably want to do the same—to send this woman to prison. After all, she hurt my son."

"But for two prominent families, the Johnsons and the Wilsons, to gang up against her like this... If anyone with ulterior motives gets hold of this, it might lead to scandal. While the rest isn’t too concerning, I’m worried it would impact the stocks of both families."

Gabriella Dyer honestly hadn’t expected that Selene Wilson would go as far as to push Chloe Simpson toward imprisonment again.

This has got to be a joke—if Chloe were sent to prison now, how would the rest of the play unfold?

After all, Gabriella had already prepared quite the drama.

Liam Johnson chimed in from the side, agreeing, "Yeah, Selene. Moreover, none of the issues have been clarified yet, not to mention the matter of Miss Simpson’s mother being kidnapped. Let’s at least wait until these things are investigated further before making any decisions."

"Alexander, what about you?"

As Liam Johnson and Gabriella Dyer voiced their concerns one after the other, it seemed Selene Wilson hadn’t heard a word—they received no response from her. She simply turned her head and looked at Alexander Johnson.

"Make her leave! I never want to see her in front of me again!"

Alexander Johnson’s eyes darkened as he reached for the water cup beside him, smashing it in Chloe Simpson’s direction with a loud bang.

"Alright, we’ll do as Alexander says."

Selene Wilson nodded, and suddenly, her stance seemed to change. She no longer insisted on throwing Chloe Simpson behind bars, as she had before.

"!"

"!"

Liam Johnson and Gabriella Dyer exchanged looks of surprise at Selene Wilson.

"!"

Chloe Simpson was dumbfounded as well.

Still, Selene Wilson backing off on sending her to prison—no matter the reasons—was undoubtedly good news.

"What’s the matter? Why are you still standing there? Chloe Simpson, can’t you understand simple words? Alexander told you to leave!"

Without giving others a chance to speak, Selene Wilson snarled at Chloe.

"..."

In the end, Chloe Simpson didn’t say a word, turned on her heel, and walked away.

She genuinely felt as if these wealthy people must have some kind of serious issues.

No—specifically, the children of wealthy families.

Take Alexander Johnson, for example. As the Crown Prince of the Capital Circle, he never lacked women. As long as he opened his mouth, as long as he wanted them, countless women would enthusiastically throw themselves at him.

Yet he clung to her—a married woman—again and again, as if he found joy in it.

Tell me—if this isn’t twisted, what is it?

And then there’s Selene Wilson—one moment playing the kind face, the next the cold face—it’s genuinely impossible to tell which face is her true one.

Chloe Simpson let out a bitter laugh but couldn’t do much about it; after all, at the end of the day, it’s all about wealth and power.

Since they told her to leave, she’d leave. She didn’t want to stick around and entertain their rich-people drama!

After leaving the hospital, Chloe immediately hailed a taxi and went back to her apartment.

At the hospital, with Chloe gone, Alexander Johnson had nothing left to deal with.

Liam Johnson and Gabriella Dyer stayed a little longer before heading back to the company.

Only Selene Wilson remained.

At 8 PM, Alexander Johnson received a message from Jack Woods on WeChat.

[Eldest Young Master, as expected, focusing on the driver Chloe mentioned as a breakthrough, we’ve uncovered many things we hadn’t found before. I’ve now gathered all the evidence of your wife’s involvement in kidnapping Miss Simpson’s mother.]

[Good.] Alexander Johnson nodded in response.

After replying to Jack woods, he looked out the window at the vast expanse of stars.

The weather tonight was truly remarkable—the stars were dazzlingly beautiful.

One should know, in Kyohai it was rare to see so many stars; they were usually visible only in the suburbs.

As Alexander Johnson gazed at the starry sky, fond memories from years ago flashed before him.

That night had been the most beautiful night of his childhood.

It was also the night he’d first met Chloe Simpson.

Lost in thought, Alexander Johnson continued staring at the twinkling stars outside the window.

It wasn’t clear how much time had passed before he returned to reality.

Then, he pulled out his phone and sent a message to Chloe Simpson on WeChat: [Move out. Leave the apartment tonight.]
