Divorcing 438
Chapter 438 Who Are You to Judge
She was just Michael's aunt. What was there to talk about?
"You slapped Cathy before. Do you think that this matter is over?" Victoria questioned.
Chloe immediately understood why Victoria had come to her, displaying a knowing expression. "If you had taught her well, I wouldn't have done it for you," she retorted.
Glaring at her, Victoria commanded, "You must apologize to Cathy."
Chloe couldn't help but find the request amusing.
"Impossible," she replied.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
How could she possibly apologize to Cathy?
"Cathy should have sent to jail to learn her lesson for taking the stalker photos and slandering others. You should be grateful that I'm kind-hearted. Otherwise, you should have been on your way to jail now instead of talking nonsense to me here," Chloe countered.
Fueled by anger, Victoria threatened, "If you don't wanna talk, I'll have to go to your company and make trouble. If you want to embarrass yourself, I don't mind fulfilling your wish. Let's see how your colleagues view you."
Before Michael and Chloe divorced, Victoria always made sarcastic remarks about Chloe.
Now that they were divorced, she naturally didn't have to care about Chloe's feelings anymore.
Chloe's hand holding the car door paused slightly.
Just at this moment, her phone vibrated.
Chloe thought about it momentarily and said, "Alright, let's talk."
She wanted to let Victoria see clearly that she was not someone who could be easily bullied.
She would never allow Victoria to have the designs on her.
The two came to a brunch restaurant downstairs of Bright Moon International. After taking a seat opposite Victoria, Chloe took out her phone and shared her location with someone.
"Cathy has been spoiled by the Shawn family since she was a child, and she has never been treated like that. I want you to apologize to her," said Victoria.
"I said it was impossible."
Chloe would never apologize to Cathy in her life.
"Alright, let's set that aside for now. You should return the card that Admas gave you when you got married, shouldn't you?" Victoria said.
Victoria's knowledge about the card came from Cathy's earlier conversation with Lucy, where she had learned that Admas had given Chloe a bank card with a large balance when Chloe and Michael married. Chloe frowned in surprise and retorted, "I've never heard of anyone asking for their wedding gift back after a divorce!"
Besides, that was the card Admas had given her. Why should she return it to Victoria?
"Don't you know how much money you've taken from the Shawn family since you married into the family? I'm only asking you to pay back a card instead of the original 600 million dollars. I'm already kind enough."
Victoria snorted, knowing that a greedy woman like Chloe would not hand over the card so easily.
"I can return it, but I will only return it to Admas himself," said Chloe.
She was not a fool, and she knew about the overt conflicts and covert struggles within the Shawn family.
Victoria, having married Harvey, was also a part of the Swift family now.
If the card were handed over to her, it might be possible for it to be returned to the Shawn family.
Victoria glanced at Chloe's petty demeanor and couldn't help but sneer, "You refuse to apologize and you're unwilling to return the card. You were indeed after the money from the beginning."
"If you're not after money, why did you come to me today? Who are you to judge me? Why pretend to be so noble yourself? Aren't you also after money?" said Chloe.
"I won't argue with you. After all, it's just a matter of tens of millions of dollars, which is insignificant for the Shawn family. But since you are no longer a part of the Shawn family, you have to give me the pair of bracelets that Admas gave you, right?"
Chloe was slightly stunned.
When she and Michael went to get their marriage licenses, he made the excuse that he was busy at work and had no time for a wedding or a honeymoon.
To make up for her, Admas gave her a pair of jade bracelets.
Although she didn't know much about jade, Chloe could still discern that the bracelets had a translucent appearance and appeared to be of considerable value. Chloe's wrists were slender, so the bracelets looked a lot bigger on her. As a result, they would slip off if she dropped her hand.
Knowing they were valuable, she kept them away after taking them home and never wore them.
She didn't expect that Victoria would come to ask for the bracelets today.
Victoria only remembered the pair of bracelets after Jennifer mentioned it yesterday.
The pair of bracelets could be regarded as a cherished family heirloom that had always been in Admas' possession.
They had all seen that Admas gave the bracelets to Chloe.
Regardless of the actual value of the bracelets, they ultimately belonged to the Shawn family and had been carefully kept hidden by Admas. Victoria naturally wanted to ask them back.
"These bracelets were given to me by Admas, just like the card. What right do you have to ask them from me?" Chloe questioned.
