He Cheated I Rose: Making Him Regret Everything (Chloe and Arthur) novel Chapter 300

**A Promise Hidden in the Quiet Rain by Adrian Hale**
**Chapter 300: The New VP**

The air in the conference room hung heavy with uncertainty, a palpable tension that made it difficult for anyone to find their voice. Chloe, sensing the hesitation in the room, decided to break the silence with a commanding tone.

“I wagered everything I had on this. The terms were unequivocal, and now we have the outcome before us. If you decide to back out now, the disgrace would be unbearable.”

Her words cut through the air like a knife, leaving a lingering silence that seemed to echo in the ears of those present.

Monique, seated beside Scott, grew increasingly fidgety. She tugged at Scott’s sleeve, her eyes darting between him and Chloe, silently pleading for him to reconsider. Yet, Scott remained oblivious to her distress, his gaze fixed unwaveringly on Chloe.

After what felt like an eternity of silence, Scott finally broke his own stillness.

“Have our PR team prepare the announcement. Chloe will join the board as Vice President.” His voice resonated with authority, filling the room and leaving no room for dissent.

Monique opened her mouth to voice her objections, but the steely glare from Ernesto silenced her instantly. She realized the futility of her protest.

With Scott’s decree issued, the other executives and board members found themselves in a position where dissent was no longer an option. Their pride was already bruised; they had no choice but to accept this new reality.

“Mr. Lewis, why didn’t you inform us that Ms. Lewis was previously married to Arthur?” a disgruntled voice muttered from the back, clearly irked by the revelation.

None of them had been aware of Chloe’s past relationship with Arthur. Had they known, they would have thought twice before speaking so carelessly.

Scott remained stoic, his focus unwavering as he signed the appointment papers, officially making Chloe the Vice President of Lewis Group and adding her to the board.

When Chloe saw the company-wide announcement flash across her screen, a small smile crept onto her lips. “This is bound to trend online. At least I’ve become a topic of conversation these days,” she mused, a mix of excitement and trepidation bubbling within her.

The room fell into a contemplative silence, the executives exchanging glances laden with doubt and disbelief.

Could someone like Chloe genuinely steer the company toward success?

Scott, observing the calm confidence radiating from Chloe, spoke in a low, measured tone. “Chloe, you now hold the title of Vice President of Lewis Group. As the chairman, I am entrusting you with the operational reins.”

He raised a finger, emphasizing his point. “You have one month. During this time, I will not interfere with your decisions. And I expect the same from every shareholder and executive present here—no meddling.”

Chloe responded with a subtle smile, her gratitude evident. “Thank you, Mr. Lewis.”

“Remember, one month. You will face every challenge that arises. No one will come to your aid.”
