CHAPTER 65

CROSS was welcomed warmly by the people who supports him in the company and he greeted them back. Chloe did the same.

"You two really look good together, Mr. Larsen. Just like our friends here say, you really know how to choose the right woman for you." Mr. Lawrence said. One of the major stockholders of Larsen Corp.

Cross gazed at Chloe full of pride. "Of course. I'm very fortunate to have her in my life." That made Chloe smile.

"I feel the same about you, cariño." She whispered and that made his heart swell in so much happiness.

He looked for his father and his family but for some reason, they were nowhere to be found.

"Wow. So, it wasn't only a rumor. You're indeed his boyfriend. But did she really choose you to be his boyfriend? I mean, no offence meant, Mr. Larsen. There's just a rumor circulating around saying that you just forced her to be with you." Mr. Peterson, one of the few journalists that were invited to cover the event, said which made his eyebrows arched.

"Rumors? I've never heard any rumors about that. Sometimes, rumors are just a product of lies of an insecure people. Whoever they were, just ignore them. It's not worth giving them your time."

"Well, your brother was the one who told us so we kinda believed it because, well, he's your brother." Instead of getting mad, Cross maintained his composure.

He was about to comment about it when Chloe spoke. "Excuse me, but no one forced me to be with Cross. I love him and he loves me. That's all that matters. For now, ignore those rumors because it obviously just wants to destroy Cross' reputation."

"So, Mr. Vito Larsen was just lying, Ms. Rosenberg?"

Chloe raised her head. "Absolutely, yes. I don't know why he's spreading such false rumors though, if he really was the one who's spreading it. I guess, he's just bored." Everyone laughed and Cross couldn't suppress his chuckle.

He could tell that she was kinda pissed but managed stay composed.

"That's good to hear. I mean, even if it's just a rumor, I don't want the company's reputation be tainted just because of this false rumor. You know how people are. They can create their own version of the story on the internet just to destroy their enemies. We don't want this to happen to Larsen Corp." It was Mr. Samson. One of the board of directors.

"Of course. But rest assured because everything is fine." Cross assured him. The older gentleman was about to answer when someone cleared their throat. Everyone's attention went to the newly arrived person.

"Good evening, gentlemen. I'm glad, you came." It was his father.

"Dad." Cross gave his father a hug. He was still in a wheelchair but it didn't matter because his recovery was faster than expected. Ever since he woke up from that coma, their relationship as father and son improved a lot and he was undeniably happy about it.

His mom and uncle were invited but they chose not to attend the event for some reason. He talked to his mother last night, trying to convince her to attend the party but she said that it would be better for them to not come because she didn't want to get in the way of his plans...
