Chapter 1597

Next day, in the afternoon.

After tending the flowers with Evelyn Thompson, Chloe Collins sat alone on the rocking chair reading a book, feeling tired.

Before she could turn a page, Anders Spence and Sophia Spence came to the east wing, with Cherry Foster accompanying them.

Cherry held on to Anders’s arm intimately.

After witnessing Anders’s selfless protection of Cherry last night, Sophia Ford and her husband had accepted him.

Despite their reluctance towards his being a divorcee, they understood that in this world, it would be hard to find another man who cares for Cherry as much as Anders does.

Anders said straightforwardly: "Thank you for last night. If it weren’t for you, we probably would no longer be here."

Sophia Spence also added: "Indeed, thanks to you for stopping Raine Nolan. Otherwise, I would have lost my little brother. We came today to discuss our family company’s participation in the chamber of commerce."

Chloe Collins closed her book and lifted her hand, "Sit down and let’s talk."

As soon as they sat down, Cherry Foster quickly said: "To show sincerity, they are willing to gift you ten percent of the shares. After that, you will have a share in all three companies: Carrington, Foster, and Spence, and the three companies can cooperate more closely."

She finished speaking with a smile.

Chloe raised her eyebrows: "Gift?"

Anders: "Yes, it’s a gift, it’s my father’s idea. Like Cherry said, our three families need to work closely together and move forward together in the future."

Chloe lowered her gaze, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and she smiled a noncommittal smile.

"Here’s the thing, go tell Alex that right now, I’m focusing on my pregnancy at home, so I’m not managing things outside."

This statement caught the three of them off guard.

Anders and Sophia looked at each other, their eyes meeting.

Sophia urged him to speak quickly.

They came here with the mission to form a formal alliance between the Spence and Foster families. Given that their father was supposed to be here, they had to come due to the injury he suffered from Raine Nolan which laid him up in a hospital bed.

Upon waking up, the first thing he did was to send Anders and Sophia to handle this matter.

Even though Spences can now join the chamber of commerce, it didn’t amount to much as Carrington and Foster remained indifferent to them.

Therefore, they thought of this plan to give up some shares to bait for an alliance.

In any case, the majority of the shares of the Spence Company were held by their family. Giving away ten percent was still bearable.

They thought this would surely work, but Chloe’s response left them uncertain.

She’s clearly using pregnancy as an excuse to reject them.

Who wouldn’t know? Even though she is pregnant, she handled the operations of Carrington from home every day.

This polite refusal might be her act of kindness.

Anders thought for a moment, and said: "We were too hasty coming here, we misremembered my father’s words. In fact, he planned to give away fifteen percent as a token of thanks, and we hope that you will accept it. Otherwise, our family will find it hard to sleep at night."

Sophia’s face changed slightly upon hearing this.

But Anders shook his head, signaling her not to intervene.

Fifteen percent, he made the decision!

Chloe leaned back, resting her cheek on her hand. The dappled sunlight filtered through the leaves, casting a scattering of light on her body, which only amplified her laid-back demeanor.

She took a sip of fruit juice, her fingers lightly tapping the book in her arms. She fell silent.

The three of them were feeling quite anxious, uncertain of what she was thinking.

"Alright." She said softly.
