The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride Chapter 927

Chapter 927 

The consultant’s face drained of color instantly, leaving her stunned and falling flat on her butt from the half–crouch position she was in. 

“What?!” Everyone in the store gasped, unable to believe what they were seeing. 

“I heard that Ms. Reeves was arrested and all her properties were actually inherited from Chloe’s mother.” 

“Is that for real? She was that Star we were talking about a while ago, right?” 

“Wow, that’s insane! I knew she looked familiar, but I didn’t think that Star would actually show up here!” 

“We heard rumors that Star was our boss, I guess we can finally breathe easy now!” 

The staff could hardly contain their excitement, staring at Chloe as if she were their savior. 

Nathan, standing nearby, had his eyes wide open, and said excitedly. “So Chloe owns this shop! No wonder!” 

Katie nodded in agreement, “Chloe is really something.” 

“She’s the boss?” The consultant looked terrified, his face getting paler as she looked at Chloe. 

Chloe turned around and looked down at the two people on the floor, then turned her gaze to the consultant and said coldly, “Now, am I qualified to ask you to leave?” 

The consultant’s face changed, and she pulled her knees towards her chest, retreating a bit. She avoided Chloe’s gaze, trembling with fear. 

Compared to her previous arrogance, she now seemed to be in a state of shock, which brought a smile to Chloe’s face. 

The manager quickly stood up upon seeing this, and approached Chloe, “Ms. Summers.” 

Chloe took two steps back, stopping him from coming any closer. 

The manager looked embarrassed but didn’t have time to worry about that. He smiled and said, “Ms. Summers, you don’t need to say it. I will immediately fire this 

woman.” 

Chloe glanced at the woman on the floor who didn’t resist her husband’s decision to fire her, then looked at the manager coldly, “I pay for employees, not bosses.” The manager nodded, looking pale, “Fired, definitely fired.” 

Chloe gave a faint smile, stood for a while, then looked at the manager with a smirk and said slowly, “Also, show me the sales records here. And, the consolidated performance sheet of all branches in this district, and their inventory records.” 

Upon hearing this, the manager’s face changed drastically. 

The consultant sat on the floor, trembling violently. She looked up at the manager, but met Chloe’s sharp gaze instead, making her even more flustered. She avoided Chloe’s gaze anxiously. 

Chloe raised an eyebrow, slowly walked over to a high chair next to the counter, and sat down. 

“What’s wrong?” She asked coldly, making the manager tense. 

“I’ll handle it right away.” The manager turned around, meeting the consultant’s gaze. The consultant glared at him angrily, her eyes filled with rage. 

The manager took out his laptop and a few minutes later, showed Chloe the sales records of this branch. 

Chloe started checking the records right on the counter. 

The store fell silent, everyone watching Chloe scrutinize the computer screen, barely daring to breathe. Especially the manager. He lowered his head, his hands. tightly clasped together, his knuckles turning white. 

The consultant also stood up, but stayed where she was. Her face looked pale, biting her lip hard. Her eyes were fixed on Chloe. 

Since it was a luxury store, the daily transactions weren’t that many. It didn’t take her long to go through the sales records of the past few months. 

From the records, it seemed that Wendy really liked the products of this brand. She purchased quite a number of items here. Pendants, earrings, rings, and bracelets. She would buy a lot of stuff each time she came. And every time after Wendy bought something, the store would sell a few items similar to what Wendy had bought. 

The consultant claimed it was the good luck that Wendy brought, it seemed she was right. 

But… 

Chloe checked Wendy’s most recent transaction and found that she had made a purchase last night around nine. She looked at the salesperson’s note, and then asked, “Who is Laura?” 

As soon as she heard the name, someone responded immediately, “It’s me.” 

Chloe looked at her, a girl who seemed innocent and clean, a little timid, but very pure. Clearly, she was afraid of her. 

“Did you handle this transaction?” Chloe pointed to Wendy’s purchase record on the computer and asked. 

Laura looked and nodded repeatedly, “Yes, the transaction was completed around 9:20 last night.” 

Chloe rested her chin on her hand, staring at the computer screen, lost in thought. She remembered the subtle change in Wendy’s expression just now. So that was why- 

She bought it last night, but she didn’t see her wearing it just now. Was she planning to put it on in the evening? 

Chloe’s contemplation made the manager and the consultant very nervous. Just then, someone asked softly, “Laura, weren’t you on the morning shift yesterday? How come you were on the night shift too?” 

Hearing this, Chloe raised her eyes to look at the group. 

Laura’s face turned red instantly. But the person who was even more flustered, and looked more fearful, was Coco standing next to her, whose expression changed from confusion to panic. 

“Laura has been working night shifts for several months now. She doesn’t even have time to get to work in the mornings, and she has to work late into the night. This kind of schedule leaves her stressed all day, and the only time she gets to rest is when she’s sleeping!” 

Another salesperson continued to complain, glancing at Coco with disdain, “Some people are really shameless, making others cover their night shifts every day. It’s just disgusting.” 

This look and expression were obviously directed at Coco. 

Coco looked panicked, casting a pleading look at the manager next to her.
