Chapter 193 In Times Of Desperation

"Why are you unhappy about it?" Chloe asked as she seemed to not understand the logic of Veronica Parker. "With Nick Cage's status and reserve, who doesn't want to climb up to him?" This is something that you should be proud to show off! You see, no matter whose company he wants to buy, he could easily buy it. Apart from him, who else in this capital can do it? Don't be so naïve, my dear!" With what she heard, she was full of anger. Is it sensible only to climb Nick?

Her sore body continuously reminded her of what type of a beast, Nick Cage was all the time. She decided that, no matter what Chloe says, even though she's her mom, Veronica will not fulfill her request. "I already told you, It's between Nick and Cage family. It has nothing to do with me anymore, and there's nothing I can do about it either. I'm going back to the TV station, I am going to be busy, don't call me again." With that, Veronica Parker pushed the door was about to leave.

How could you turn out to be that ruthless? For the longest time, I've been helping you hide the fact, that you already have six children from Nick." Chloe's attitude seemed to change upon saying this firmly to her. Veronica's hand froze all of a sudden, she looked back at her mom with disbelief and asked her, "Did you just threaten me?" "If that's what you think so, then so be it. There's nothing I can do about it. All that I want to say, we are on the same boat Veronica, and we should look at each other's back." Chloe answered without even looking at her. Veronica could not seem to believe, what her mom just told her.

She obviously, threatened her to fulfill her request. And if she decided not to help, Chloe will eventually tell Nick about it.

Even if Chloe doesn't happen to know anything about her six children, knowing the vengeful nature of Nick, it should at least be enough to make her feel bad.

Is this really, what a real mother should say?

Did she just think for her own good?

"I hope you could understand me. This is the only way that I could think of, for you to help me." Chloe added.

Veronica was speechless for a moment and then she eventually laughed at herself, "You are indeed, my real mother! In the past, I did not care about you, giving up on me for the sake of splendor and wealth. But now you actually take advantage of me, just for the sake of prosperity and wealth, regardless of knowing my difficulty. "

"You are my daughter, you are a part of me! Do you think that I will hurt you? I'm just asking you a simple favor. Can't you say some nice words in front of your husband? Are you embarrassed by me? You are seriously giving me a hard time!"

Veronica did not dare to talk back again. The two of them have always been like this, they both have different values and different ways to perceive things. And it would be best for them, not to talk together.

She glanced at her for a while, dropped the card, and pushed the door to get off of the car.

As she made her way back to the TV station, she heard Chloe's voice behind her, "Mom will be waiting for your good news!"

She did not look back and she just continued to walk away from her.

Good news?

Good news, in exchange for her?

She hasn't tried to ask Nick, for a favor even once. If this could change Nick's attitude, would she end up like this?

What exactly was Chloe Bowen thinking?

Did she think that women are omnipotent with men?

She doesn't know anyone else, but Nick Cage is absolutely impossible! No woman can control Nick Page! Controlling was his main language.

Chloe's words seemed to make her feel so down, she felt helpless.

What's it like to be used by your own mother?

She kind of felt it.

Originally, she was determined not to go in front of Nick, and to put a good word on behalf of the Cage family.

However, knowing her Chloe Bowen, she doesn't know what else her mom could do, if she opted not to do it. It seemed like the only option that was left for her now, is to beg Nick Cage.

At the back of her mind, Nick set this trap for her to fall into. He must have been waiting for her to beg him.
