The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1599

Chapter 1599

A plea and desperation replaced the malice in Addie’s eyes. “Sir, please! Just give me one more chance…I swear, I’ll change, I’ll correct my mistakes. Please let me stay…”

Presley shut his eyes, his jaw muscles taut with anger. “…Guards! Kick her out!”

Upon hearing the command, the guards waiting outside immediately entered. They hoisted Addie from the ground and started dragging her out. She slumped to the floor, refusing to cooperate. “Please. You can’t be so heartless. I’ve always been loyal to the Harper family… Her voice faded as she was dragged out of the drawing room and into the courtyard.

The servant, who had been hiding, now emerged, looking rather pleased with herself. She knew Chloe wouldn’t turn against someone without reason. If she was going out of her way to deal with Addie, then she must have done something unforgivable.

The drawing room fell silent once again as nightfall arrived.c2

“You guys can stay. We’ll need you to work in the house from now on,” the old man said, his voice filled with exhaustion.

He slowly rose to his feet, swaying slightly. “I’ve lost my appetite, so I won’t have dinner. You guys go ahead”

Leaving these words behind, he ascended the staircase with the aid of his cane, disappearing out of sight.

Robin’s eyes stayed glued to the TV screen, where the news had shifted to the scene of Chloe being ambushed outside her apartment. She was calm and collected, as if she had expected the media’s attention.

This woman, did she always remain so composed under pressure, or had she anticipated being cornered by the reporters?

Or perhaps did she know that he was behind the media attention?

Or did she have other suspicions?

He narrowed his eyes, his expression turning grim. In just a day, with Addie as a catalyst, she had expertly played her hand. The faithful old servant who had been by the old man’s side for decades, whom even Elizabeth hadn’t been able to drive away, was now completely out of favor

Chloe really didn’t leave any room for a comeback. Her actions were even more decisive and ruthless than a man’s could be.

Addie was immediately dismissed from the Harper family. After decades of service, she wasn’t even allowed to stay the night. She trudged into town with her suitcase, utterly exhausted, but was recognized by a crowd. Their disdainful and contemptuous looks made her lower her head.

“Did she get kicked out?”

“Why feel sorry for her? Better to sympathize with the other servants who were oppressed by her!”

“She lived a luxurious life at the Harper mansion, with a bunch of flunkies at her beck and call, and a hefty salary. You want to feel sorry for her?”

“Whod dare hire her now?”

“A housekeeper”

The clerk looked at her, smirked silently, shook her head, and jotted down her request. “Do you have any salary expectations?”

“The lowest I’ll take is fifteen thousand.”

Addie stated this matter–of–factly. The clark paused, looked up at the elderly woman sitting across from het, her swollen face showing all the signs of her recent ordeal, and silently laughed at the audacity. The signs of a life of luxury were still evident in her appearance. Despite her

current disheveled state, she was cleaner and more refined than the women from the poorer regions. But her I come from a rich family‘ arrogance was off–putting.

The staff member scoffed, his words dripping with sarcasm. “You’re asking for a salary of fifteen grand?”

Addie nodded, a hint of arrogance in her demeanor. Even when she looked at the staff member, there was a hint of disdain and condescension in her gaze. “That’s my bottom line. I used to make more than that.”

The staff member let out a sarcastic chuckle, jotting down “15000+” on the form as he spoke in a dismissive tone, “Well, then perhaps you should return to your previous job.”
