He Cheated I Rose: Making Him Regret Everything (Chloe and Arthur) novel Chapter 364

**A Promise Hidden in the Quiet Rain by Adrian Hale**

“Isk tsk. Lewis Group isn’t hers yet,” Ernesto said, arching an eyebrow with a hint of mischief. “The real president is still up on stage.”

Gordon opened his mouth to respond, but the words caught in his throat.

“A few kind words in her favor, and look at you—you’re practically on fire. You two must have formed quite a bond behind the scenes,” Ernesto continued, his tone dripping with insinuation.

“Ernesto, please, I have never wronged you. Don’t throw around baseless accusations like that. I am a devoted husband and a loyal member of this company. My relationship with Ms. Lewis is strictly professional,” Gordon insisted, his voice trembling slightly as agitation bubbled beneath the surface.

“Who’s to say what’s really going on?” Ernesto shrugged dismissively, casting a glance around at the other executives, who were all too eager to join in on the spectacle.

The senior executives present exchanged knowing glances, unable to suppress faint smirks that danced on their lips.

As the tension escalated, whispers began to ripple through the crowd, casting furtive glances at Gordon, their expressions tinged with suspicion. Even a few fellow shareholders regarded him with barely concealed disdain.

Just as Ernesto had suggested, Gordon’s transformation from critic to champion was striking. Could a staggering 50-billion-dollar cash infusion truly shift a person’s loyalty so dramatically?

It felt too convenient, too calculated. Was there something deeper brewing between him and Chloe, hidden from the prying eyes of the world?

Chloe was undeniably captivating—her striking beauty and graceful figure were enough to leave any man spellbound. It was no wonder that even Gordon found it challenging to resist her allure.

Yet, she always carried herself with an air of professionalism in public, a mask that concealed the true essence of her character. What was she really like when the doors closed, when the spotlight faded?

Could it be…?

Was it even remotely possible?

“You think there’s something more than just business between her and him?” a voice whispered from the crowd, barely audible but filled with intrigue.

“Don’t you dare speak about my sister like that!” Carolyn interjected, her voice rising as she struggled to keep her composure. “My sister is a good person. She would never engage in such behavior. She’s brilliant—she has her own life and ambitions. How could she be what you’re suggesting?”

“Since Ms. Lewis isn’t here, and no one has seen her, who really knows what she’s like?” a voice called out from the audience, followed by a low chuckle. “Mr. Lewis, just make your announcement already! If you have something significant to share, let’s hear it. You’ve kept us all hanging for too long.”
