Honey, You're a Billionaire? novel Chapter 567

The scene unfolding before Chloe was a blatant display of people desperately trying to curry favor with Rose.

"I have an objection!" she nearly shouted.

The previously orderly introductions in the conference room came to an abrupt halt with Chloe's outburst, and for a moment, the room fell silent.

However, almost instantly, the introductions resumed one after another as if the interruption had never occurred.

Chloe couldn't believe they were actually ignoring her. After all, she was the sole second-generation member of the Young family left.

"How dare they act as though I'm invisible? This is outrageous!" she thought.

Determined to regain control of the situation, Chloe raised her voice even louder. "I said I have an objection! Didn't you hear me?"

Still, the introductions continued without interruption, as though no one had heard her.

"Stop! I said stop it! Everyone, stop right now!" Chloe's voice took on a desperate edge as she gritted her teeth.

Just then, the door to the conference room swung open. The person entering seemed to be in a hurry, pushing the door with more force than intended, causing a loud bang.

The sudden noise caught everyone's attention, and the introductions finally came to a halt.

For a fleeting moment, Chloe believed that her protests had finally managed to break through the chaos. Her gaze remained fixed on the scene before her, not noticing that everyone else had already turned their attention toward the entrance.

Gabriel stood in the doorway, momentarily frozen as he took in the scene.

Although he wasn't involved in managing Young Group, he recognized many of the key figures present, including his grandfather's old friends—Irvin, Campbell, and Luka. But what caught his attention the most was Rose, who was seated in the most prominent position.

He had already heard about the rumors circulating in Regalia that day, and now it was clear that the conference room discussion was about something significant. There, amidst it all, was his mother, Chloe.

His face tightened with unease as he quickly made his way toward Chloe.

Meanwhile, the woman in question remained oblivious to Gabriel's arrival. Before he could call out to her, Miles' voice echoed across the room.

"Aunt Chloe, I'm only addressing you respectfully because you're Grandpa's adopted daughter. I'm willing to overlook the disturbance you caused just now, but you'd better stop testing my patience.

"Otherwise, we'll have to discuss the numerous Young family assets under your management that have quietly transitioned to the Yones name."

Chloe bristled at the word "disturbance", but her face paled as she understood the implications of Miles' words. Panic surged within her as she met his gaze.

"All those covert actions I took over the years to transfer assets, things even Oliver never noticed—has Miles uncovered it all?" she mused.

"Miles, you…" she began.

She thought maybe he was bluffing. Perhaps he knew but didn't have evidence. However, a hand seized her wrist before she could finish her sentence, and she spun around to see Gabriel.

Confused, she asked, "What are you doing here?"

Gabriel didn't bother explaining how he ended up in the conference room. Instead, he urgently whispered, "Mom, something's happened…"

Not wanting to air their issues publicly, he leaned closer to Chloe's ear and spoke softly enough that no one else could hear. Nevertheless, his words visibly shook Chloe, turning her face deathly pale.
