Chapter 26 How Did You Find Me?
Chloe remained expressionless as she said, “Your mother’s a homewrecker, yet she can still hold her
head up high in front of everyone.”
Ava responded with a smile instead of anger. She gently stroked the wardrobe and replied, “Do you
remember? This used to be mine but I thought your wardrobe looked better, so I asked Dad for it.
Whatever I want in this family, I can have. Even if my mother was a homewrecker, I can call the shots.”
One could rise to great heights and gain a splendid life despiteing from a humble background. In
contrast, Chloe’s mother was a well-breddy who fought with her parents and cut ties with them just to
be with Benjamin. However, she failed to even keep her man in the end.
“A broken wardrobe is all you need to feel superior?” Chloe sneered disdainfully, drawing out her
words. “Speaking of that wardrobe, I should thank you. Only a fool would trade a new wardrobe for an
old one.”
Ava treated Jake, who was a scumbag, exactly in this manner-like he was a precious
treasure.
Her face livid, a sudden thought popped into Ava’s head and she went back to smiling, straightening
her back out of pride.
“You’re just jealous of me!” she eximed.
“I’m jealous of you? Oh, please! That was the funniest joke I’ve ever heard in my life. You and your
mother are unsightly,” Chloe retorted.
Ava’s face sank, and she raised her hand to p Chloe, but Chloe was prepared for this. She pulled
Ava’s hair and pushed her backward forcefully. With a loud crash, the wardrobe and Ava toppled to the
ground.
Hair in a mess and her pretty dress covered in dust, Ava still maintained the smile on her face,
triumphant in her scheme, “You’re done for now.”
With that, she got up and left the room, making sure to lock the door behind her before heading to
Benjamin toin. Almost simultaneously, Chloe deftly opened the window and escaped, taking
advantage of the time that Ava was away.
Looking down at the grass below, Chloe inhaled deeply, shut her eyes, and jumped. Landing on the
soft grass, she was grateful that she had not broken any bones and only sustained a sprained ankle.
After that, she heard the door to her room being unlocked from upstairs.
“Dad, please don’t scold Chloe. Maybe she’s not in a good mood and didn’t mean it,” Ava pleaded.
“You don’t have to say anything. You tried to talk to her nicely, but she didn’t appreciate it. She needs to
be taught a lesson!” Benjamin replied sternly.
The conversation ended abruptly as soon as he opened the door.
Chloe hastily limped toward the front gate as she knew Benjamin woulde for her soon enough. As
soon as she stepped outside, Benjamin and Karen came running after her.
Under the faint glow of the moon, Benjamin’s face contorted in fury as he fixated his wrathful stare on
Chloe. Karen trailed behind him, her visage disying anxiety, yet the venomous hatred that lurked
behind her facade was apparent to Chloe.
Together, they resembled malevolent demons.
As Chloe reminisced on her childhood, her face drained of color as she recalled how Ava had
wrongfully used her of stealing money and how Benjamin had berated her in a simr fashion.
Despite her attempts to defend herself, Benjamin violently attacked her until her eyes were swollen and
bleeding.
Chloe did her best to run away, but she could not move any faster with her sprained ankle. As
Benjamin closed in on her, a hand with distinct knuckles suddenly reached out and pulled her into a
corner.
It was not until she was sitting in the car and looking at the man’s stern profile that Chloe realized it was
Joseph who had saved her. She asked in astonishment, “H-How did you find me?”
Joseph stepped on the elerator and his eyes shed with disdain. “Given that we live in an age
where virtually anyone’s personal information can be found on the Inte, would it be a challenge for
me to locate your address?”

Chloe nodded in agreement. “You’re right.”
She then asked, “So, did youe to find me because you were worried about me?”
