NovelEnglishDivorcing 510 Divorcing 510 Chapter 510 Two Strawberry Cakes Charlie had expected Michael to cforward and take him away out of pity, but to his surprise, Michael just stood back.
With his arms crossed, he was leaning against the wall, watching the scene unfold like a spectator.
"You can cry all you want, it won't change anything. Just because you said sorry doesn't mean I have to forgive you!" Chloe's words lacked any hint of politeness. It was about tthis impolite kid learned a lesson about the harsh realities of society.
After crying for a while with no one coming to comfort him, Charlie awkwardly wiped away his tears.
In truth, he had cried so much that there were no more tears left to shed.
"Done crying? Have you figured out where you went wrong?" Chloe asked.
Charlie nodded with puffy eyes and a sniffle.

"I'll apologize on his behalf. He's been spoiled by his parents, never faced any hardships outside. Sorry about that," Michael said, looking at Chloe.
"He's just a kid, I can let it slide. But I'm really not in a good mood right now," Chloe replied.
Michael raised his gaze to meet hers. "What would it take to lift your spirits?" She smiled, raising her two fingers, "It's simple, my two strawberry cakes got ruined by him. You owe me." Michael was taken aback by her request for just two strawberry cakes.
As he looked at Chloe's mischievous smile, his heart skipped a beat.
He realized she was the kind of person who, despite knowing he would compensate her generously, only asked for two strawberry cakes-pure and simple.
"I'll get them for you," Michael said before walking out to make a call to Ethan.
Ethan swiftly procured the strawberry cakes from another bakery and delivered them promptly.
Initially, he thought they were for Charlie, but seeing Michael hand them to Chloe, he understood they were for her.
He thought, "No wonder Mr. Shawn went out of his way for a cake, it was all for Ms. Nelson." Upon receiving the cakes, Chloe visibly brightened up.
Looking at Quinn, she smiled genuinely this time, "Let's go back. Candy and the others must be waiting impatiently." Seeing her genuinely happy smile directed at Quinn, Michael couldn't help but feel a twinge of discomfort. He knew he had no grounds to be jealous now, but the feeling was hard to shake off.
It had been a long tsince she last smiled at him like that.
After Chloe left, Charlie stood beside Michael, following his gaze as they watched Chloe disappear without a trace Charlie then asked, "Uncle, do you like that old... lady?" Michael immediately glared at him. "That's your Aunt. Don't you dare mistreat her again, or I'll send you back to your parents." Charlie pouted, saying, "You're biased, Uncle." "I am biased! So what?" The next morning, before Chloe could even freshen up, she lay in bed and opened her phone to see the day's trending topic-the incident involving her and Maya.
Felipe had acted swiftly, suing the online rumor-monger and even posting the court summons online, sparking a storm of discussions.
People were amazed that Chloe had actually chosen to sue over the rumors, not targeting Maya but a random online user.
The intewas divided into two camps over the issue.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm[Isn't it a bit too much to sue an online user? I think just getting an apology would suffice; why blow things out of proportion?]
[Hey, what if it happens to you? We've been tolerating online violence fon years; it's high tsomeone took legal action against those spreading defamatory dies about Chloe!] The two factions argued fiercely while Chloe sat back, enjoying the .
At that moment, Felipe texted her, mentioning the court date was in three days.
Chloe replied with a simple "Got it" and then went back to enjoying the .
Little did she expect that the would cback to bite her.
Someone online revealed that Chloe had been working with Jioleek all along, causing another uproar on the internet.
[What? Chloe knows Jioleek? Goodness gracious, my mind is blown.] [Wait, who's Jioleek?]
[Hey, Jioleek is a big shot in the hacking world. If you're a hacker and get to meet Jibleek, you can consider your life complete!]
Chloe clicked on the account that leaked her connection to Jioleek, only to find it was a newly registered account with just that one piece of information. Frowning, she couldn't help but wonder who could have posted that tweet.
The only person that cto her mind was Rachel.
