After Divorcing my Captain Husband (Chloe and Michael)

Chapter 369 Attempted Murder

Chloe was speechless for a moment, thinking, "Do I have to speak as a spokesperson?

No one told me when I was just in the break room."

Michael, Cathy and Lucy next to Chloe all looked stunned.

At this moment, Victoria looked outraged to hear her daughter's disgruntled voice next to her. "Why is Chloe the spokesperson?"

"Shut up!"

Victoria wouldn't vent her frustration at Chloe at this moment, and she could only tell Cathy, who was beside her, to be quiet. Lucy clenched her fists.

She thought, "Why could Chloe rise to fame suddenly?

She's neither a model nor someone with a prominent background.

Could Chloe be the global spokesperson for the Opal Group just because she is Michael's wife?"

Seeing the expression in Wesley's eyes, Chloe had no choice but to get up and go on stage.

Hearing Chloe's speech, Lucy filmed it on her cell phone and sent it to Monica.

"Thanks to the Opal Group and Mr. Richard Jenkins for giving me this opportunity, and I will try to do a better job. Thank you all." Chloe covered her chest and gave a humble bow before stepping off the stage.

It was banquet time after the press conference.

Chloe didn't have an appetite, so she just drank a glass of water.

"Do you feel sick?"

James suddenly walked up to her.

He was now the only one who knew about Chloe's pregnancy besides the doctors at the hospital.

So, Chloe was more relaxed to face him.

"I feel a little sick to my stomach."

"You're having a big pregnant reaction. Based on your current state, it's not simple for you to hide it from Michael."

Chloe pursed her lips, and she knew it wasn't easy.

Michael had just discussed business with his partner.

As soon as he returned, he saw James standing over Chloe again, so he immediately strode over to her.

"Chloe!"

He took Chloe by the wrist and pulled her away from James.

"I'm not feeling well, so I'd like to go back first."

Chloe rarely showed her soft side in front of Michael.

For the previous three years, Michael never cared about her, and he would just think it was her pretending to be a prude.

As time passed, Chloe stopped expressing herself. Even if she felt uncomfortable again, she would endure in front of him.

But today Chloe was genuinely feeling sick and wanted to hurry back to get some rest.

Michael was slightly stunned. Then, he immediately put down the goblet in his hand. "Come on, I'll go back with you." Chloe was slightly relieved, but she had just gotten to the door of the banquet hall with Michael when she heard an angry roar. "Chloe, you took everything away from me!"

Before Chloe could get out of the way, she saw Monica rushing over with a vicious look on her face.

Monica had a small fruit knife in her hand and was about to stab Chloe in the waist.

Michael was shocked and subconsciously blocked her with his body.

James came from somewhere else as well, kicking the knife right out of Monica's hand and quickly holding her down. "Security guard!"

The people around them gathered around after hearing the noise.

Monica tried to struggle free of James' hold.

"Let go of me. Chloe, you deliberately stole my filming opportunity to take away the spokesmodel position of the Opal Group, didn't you?" Monica tried to sign with another company after she was terminated, but she kept getting rejected.

No company was willing to hire her.

Monica began studying to be a model when she was eighteen. Now she had absolutely no way to change careers after she lost her job. She wasn't even invited by the Opal Group today.

It was after seeing the video Lucy sent her that she came over here temporarily.

Monica's target was Chloe from the beginning.

The security guards quickly rushed over and surrounded Monica, preventing her from getting another chance to hurt someone with a knife.

Richard also came over immediately after hearing the noise. Upon learning what happened, he immediately apologized to Chloe.

"Ms. Nelson, we were remiss in our duties, and the Jenkins Group and the Opal Group would like to apologize to you sincerely. We will handle this until you are satisfied!" Before Chloe could say anything, she heard Michael say unpleasantly, "She's committing attempted murder, and we definitely can't settle this matter privately!"

At this moment, Lucy followed Owen over. Seeing Monica being stopped outside, a hint of disappointment appeared in Lucy's eyes.

She sent Monica the video because she wanted to punish Chloe with Monica's hand.

However, Monica didn't make it.

She didn't even hurt Chloe in the slightest.

Monica immediately said when she saw Lucy, "Lucy, Chloe did it on purpose, and you knew it, right? It was all a plot by Chloe!"

Lucy thought Monica was incredibly stupid.

So, Lucy glanced at Michael and said helplessly, "Monica, how could you do such a thing? You would go to jail, and you were so irrational. Luckily, Chloe is fine!"

Monica looked at Lucy in disbelief, unable to believe that Lucy would think the same of herself.

Lucy's attention was long gone from Monica.

"Michael, Monica did the wrong thing today, and I will apologize to you and Chloe for her. For the sake of her being my friend, let's leave this to the police today. Everything will be handled according to the law, okay?"

Everything would be handled according to the law.

Lucy's words didn't upset Michael.

Chloe took Michael's arm when she suddenly felt a pain in her abdomen.
