Chapter 471

“The biggest risk in life is a brave challenge. If you’re scared, you’ve already lost.” The car windowwas up, and Chloe was looking at the bright neon lights not too far ahead, speaking with anonchalant air.

“What’s a little setback like this? What your mom gave you is enough to protect you. It’s a tool tohelp you move forward and, when necessary, your strongest weapon to protect yourself.” Jeanette’seyes flickered intensely, her hand gripping the seatbelt tightened. She bit her lip hard, tears wellingup in her eyes again.

From silent tears to quiet sobs, then to loud cries.

Chloe didn’t say anything anymore. The whole car was filled with longing and guilt for her mother,repentance for her past arrogance and willfulness. She had suppressed helplessness andgrievances, but now she let out all her emotions in the most primal and instinctive way, and therewas no more cowardice or fear.

The car slowly stopped in front of Jeanette’s villa. Looking at the home her mother had left her,Jeanette felt a pang of heartache!

Chloe, one hand on the steering wheel, turned to look at her. Her eyes were red and swollen, buther face flushed, albeit from crying until she was oxygen–deprived.

“Go home, take a bath, don’t catch a cold.” Chloe said.

Jeanette didn’t move.

Chloe squinted, quietly watching her.

After a while, Jeanette sniffled and held back her tears. After another while, she took a deep breathand turned to look at Chloe. She asked, “Can you help me?”

Chloe was indifferent, her lips curling slightly, “Starting to rely on me now, are you?”

Jeanette shook her head without hesitation, “I want to start over, get back what belongs to me andtry harder. I want to move toward my dreams and prove to my mother that I’m her pride. Ms.Summers, the current situation is not in my favor, I need an agent who can strategize for me! Wecould be mutually beneficial, I have value. If you can help me through this crisis, I promise, I will notonly give you the recognition you deserve but also make you a lot of money!”

A glint flashed in Chloe’s eyes, she smiled slightly. Her slender fingers were lightly tapping on thesteering wheel, seemingly contemplating something.

Jeanette gripped her hands tightly, anxiously yet expectantly watching Chloe’s fingers.

After a long while, Chloe’s cool voice slowly rang out, “It’s indeed a big temptation. But what’s yourplan to make me a lot of money?”

Chloe raised an eyebrow at her, her eyes filled with a bit of probing wisdom.

Jeanette, however, confidently raised her chin, “How to do that and to make me your ‘cash cow‘,depends on how you. As my agent and boss, please play your cards! If you can’t use thisopportunity well, then that’s too bad!”

Seeing Jeanette’s confident look, Chloe smiled slightly. She glanced at the villa in front of her, andasked softly, “Can I come in?”

Jeanette’s eyelashes trembled slightly; her tense body immediately relaxed.

“That’s what I’ve been looking forward to.” She said.

Inside the villa, the environment didn’t look like a girl’s residence at all

The entire living room, the coffee table, the cabinet, the TV, flower pots, were filled with pieces ofpaper and crumpled up balls of paper. Guitars, violins, flutes, pianos, and various small musicalinstruments were scattered around, some of which Chloe couldn’t even name. However, the level ofmess was as if someone had broken in and robbed the place.

“Sorry, it’s a bit messy here,” Jeanette said, starting to pick up the papers on the floor.

“You should go take bath and change clothes first.” Chloe suggested.

Jeanette glanced at her, was about to turn around and leave, but suddenly stopped. Then sheturned to look at her up and down, hesitated for a moment, and then said, “Do you want to join mefor a bath?”
