The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride Chapter 438

Chapter 438 

“Chloe.” she paused, seemingly forgetting Chloe’s name for a moment. 

Chloe pursed her lips, not surprised at all. 

That was just Cicely for sure, she was a social butterfly. She could get chummy with anyone in no time, but never really dug deep in any relationship. 

Remembering Chloe’s name, that was quite a feather in Chloe’s cap 

“Why are you sitting here?” Chloe asked. 

She didn’t dare to outright ask when she got out of prison, just hinted at it. 

“I was just passing by. The smell on the bus was getting to me, so I decided to chill here for a bit.” Cicely said. 

Chloe nodded. She knew, if there was a contest for who had the most swanky, extravagant life, Cicely would win hands down. 

She didn’t exactly warm the cockles of people’s heart, and it wasn’t because she was a bad egg. It was just her character, her appearance. 

Chloe thought for a bit, then asked, “Where are you off to? I could give you a lift.” 

Cicely glanced at her and retorted, “Where are you headed?” 

“I’m going to the nearby orphanage.” Chloe said. 

Cicely’s eyes flickered for a moment, then she opened the passenger side door of the car. 

*Long time no see, I’ve got some time to kill, I can tag along to the orphanage, then you can drop me home “Cicely said. 

Chloe sized her up for a moment, then glanced at the rearview mirror to her left, spotting a car parked across the street. Her eyebrows twitched slightly 

She thought for a moment, then got out of the car. She then circled around it, got back in to start the car, and continued on. 

Cicely’s expression didn’t change, but her hands clenched tightly into fists, clearly on edge. 

Upon reaching the orphanage, Chloe parked the car, and the staff immediately came out to greet them. 

“Chloe, you’re here!” 

Chloe nodded slightly. 

The staffs gaze shifted to Cicely, 

“And who might this be?” 

“A friend of mine” 

As she spoke, she used her car key to remotely open the trunk, taking out snacks and school supplies for the kids. 

“Where’s Hugo?” Chloe asked. 

The staff, accustomed to Chloe immediately asking about Hugo, answered naturally, 

“In the music room. Listening to Ms. Randle play the piano.” 

Chloe’s eyes flickered slightly, “Has Hugo’s mother come to see him?” 

As she asked, she kept an eye on Cicely’s expression. 

Cicely seemed tense 

The staff sighed, “No! She’s been out of jail for a while now, but she hasn’t come to see her child once. We didn’t dare to tell the kid the truth about his mother. He’s been waiting for her every day and sitting at the door for hours on end. We tell him to eat well, so he can grow strong and protect his mother. He eats on time every day, and even when he’s sick and running a fever, he won’t skip a meal. He would throw up afterward. It’s heartbreaking 

Cicely stood to the side, with a tense body and eyes cast down, her long eyelashes trembling intensely. 

Chloe could feel the deep emotions radiating off her 

No matter how hard she tried to hide it, she couldn’t completely cover it up. 

How could such intense emotions be hidden? 

Even a bystander hearing the staffs description would feel a pang in their heart, let alone, she was Hugo’s mother. 

“Let’s go see him Chloe said 

“Alright, you go ahead” The staff said. 

Chloe took a couple of steps forward, but Cicely didn’t follow
