Chapter 12 - Chloe Stands Tall Against Her Cruel Mother In Law
As William walked out of the dining room, Chloe stepped down the hallway stairs, carrying her small overnight bag in her hand.
She stopped at the entrance of the dining room, looking down at the broken woman who had tried to push her down the stairs twenty-four hours prior.
Eleanor looked up from the floor, her eyes burning with a venomous, pathetic hatred despite her total defeat.
“Are you happy now, you little parasite?” Eleanor spat out through clenched teeth, her voice trembling with rage.
“You think winning this house makes you a real Sterling? You’ll never belong in our world.”
Chloe walked forward slowly, stopping just a few feet away from her mother-in-law with an unyielding, confident posture.
“I don't care about your world, Eleanor,” Chloe answered calmly, looking down at her with quiet strength.
“Our world is built on love, honesty, and family—things your money could never buy and your cruelty could never destroy.”

Eleanor opened her mouth to hurl another insult, but the heavy front doors opened and two private security guards stepped into the foyer.
“Mrs. Sterling’s transport is waiting outside,” the head guard announced respectfully to William, who stood waiting by the front door.
