Chapter 150 Icarus’ Undivided Attention on Chloe

Hearing Lucas’ words, Chloe felt a warmth in her heart, although she was aware that it

stemmed from Joseph’s possessiveness. Nevertheless, she could not deny that he was being attentive

to her needs this time.

“Well, I’m grateful to him,” she replied.

Lucas smiled and nodded in response.

Inside the banquet hall, everyone was elegantly dressed. Benjamin and Ava stood at the entrance,

welcoming the arriving guests. It appeared that the dissolution of Ava’s marriage to the Coopers had

little impact on their attitude.

As soon as Ava spotted Chloe, she rushed over and embraced her affectionately. “Coco, you’re here.

Let me walk you inside.”

Chloe discreetly shrugged Ava off, maintaining an expressionless face. “I can go in on my own.

”

Ava paused, concealing her hidden malice behind a gentle smile. “All right, Jake is inside too. You can

sit with him.”

Chloe ignored Ava’s instructions and found an empty seat, choosing to sit alone. It had been

challenging to distance herself from Jake since cutting him out of her life.

Soon, the banquet hall started to fill up as more and more people arrived. Business partners, relatives

of the Johnsons, and even media reporters were part of the guest list.

Chloe scanned the room and furrowed her brows as she noticed a significant number of media

representatives present, which did not sit well with her.

Jake had caught sight of Chloe earlier, and frustration swelled within him when he observed. her

purposefully keeping her distance.

Icarus arrived five minutes before the birthday banquet was scheduled to begin. He took a seat beside

Jake and said in a deep voice, “Looks like the Coopers invited the media as well.”

Jake was caught off guard. “No wonder there are so many reporters outside.”

“They came prepared today.”

Initially, the plan was to invite the media to exert pressure and demand the return of the dowry.

Considering Jake’s current situation, 3 million in dowry was a substantial amount.

Under normal circumstances, if a couple were to break up, it would be acceptable to forgo claiming the

dowry. However, Ava’s affair with Adam made it impossible to let this matter slide.

“What should we do? I just saw Chloe. She’s here too,” Jake exclaimed, his composure slipping.

Icarus’ expression grew serious as he scanned the room, searching for her. He spotted Chloe in a

corner, standing out amid the elegantly dressed crowd. She wore professional office attire, the tight

fitting pencil skirt highlighting her enticing figure and exuding an air of

competence and individuality.

Icarus’ heart raced as he turned to Jake and said, “Wait here for a momexo.com fast updatent. I’ll

go talk to Chloe.

Jake wanted to stop Icarus but was uncertain about his own role in this situation. Despite his mental

preparation and constant self assurance that his uncle was superior in every aspect and could bring

happiness to Chloe, seeing Icarus sitting next to her, showering her with gentle looks, made Jake feel a

pang of jealousy. He grabbed the glass of red wine in front of him and downed it in one gulp

“Did Ava invite you?” Icarus asked casually, his expression natural, and a touch of gentleness

emanating from behind his gold rimmed glasses.

Chloe noticed Icarus and was slightly taken aback. Remembering Jake’s words, a trace of

embarrassment crossed her face “Yeah, she did.’

Icarus’ refined features turned into a scowl. “She has ulterior motives.

“I’m aware of that, but I had to come,” Chloe said, tightening her grip on the voice recorder pen in her

hand. The corner of her mouth twitched, displaying determination. “Don’t worry, I know how to handle it.

And what about you? Did you come with Jake?”

“Yes, Jake currently holds a special position in the Cooper family. His younger brother has inherited half

of the management rights of the Cooper family’s company I have to support

him ”

Years ago, Jake’s father had an affair, and his mother used to make a fuss about it. As time passed,

she lost her willpower and stopped attending to the business matters of their company Jake grew up

day by day, and eventually, his mother became more accepting and stopped intervening

Chloe sighed and commented, “Every family has its own set of problems.”

The high-profile birthday party commenced, and many attendees presented valuable gifts, including

exquisite caviar, gourmet truffles, and famous paintings Having been with Joseph for a long time,

Chloe’s taste had been influenced, and she found these so-called gifts to be tacky

Icarus’ attention was not on the festivities. Instead, it was solely focused on Chloe. After careful

consideration, he said to her, “Ahem, Chloe, have you encountered any difficulties while continuing to

maintain such a relationship with Mr. Joseph?”

He could not fathom why Chloe would willingly choose to be in a relationship of that nature with Jose
