Chapter 244 His MoveChapter 244 His Move
Everyone focused on Chloe during her calligraphy demonstration, and the invited media captured
close-up shots.
Even amidst the bustling crowd, many were amazed by her calligraphy. "No wonder she became the
vice president of the Calligraphy Association. Ms. Hurst's running script is truly marvelous."
"Her strength is apparent without being ostentatious, and her posture is expressive without
exaggeration. Her pen strokes flow like running water and clouds..."
Of course, some well-informed attendees at the event to support Chloe added, "Ms. Hurst's calligraphy
will probably rival Mrs. Emily Quinn's with time. No wonder Mrs. Emily Quinn is so satisfied with her
future daughter-in-law."
"So, Ms. Hurst is Mrs. Emily Quinn's future daughter-in-law? In that case, their mother-in-law and
daughter-in-law relationship will surely be good. Mrs. Emily Quinn is so fond of studying calligraphy. I
bet the two will be busy practicing calligraphy together often."
Amidst the praises, Chloe handed the pen to a nearby staff member with a smile and looked at Cora.
noveldrama"Without embracing simplicity, one cannot grasp one's aspirations. Without seeking tranquility, one
cannot achieve greatness." This quote served as a reminder to those caught up in a fast-paced and
impetuous lifestyle today. It urged them not to overlook the importance of simplicity and not to be
swayed by immediate gains and fame, for only by doing so could they find clear direction and pursue
their lofty goals. It emphasized the significance of maintaining a calm and focused mind in seeking
knowledge and personal growth, as that was the key to attaining accomplishments in life.However, in reality, Chloe used these words to convey a message to Cora. She wanted to emphasize
that Cora's impatience for quick success and her overly ambitious pursuit would not lead her anywhere.
Chloe insinuated that Cora would never gain acceptance within their prestigious circles and high-
society families.
While others might not be aware of the complex relationship between Chloe, Lucas, and Cora, anyone
familiar with their love triangle could easily discern Chloe's mocking intentions toward Cora.
Jane watched the scene with delight, her heart filled with satisfaction.
She even admired Chloe, thinking, "No wonder she comes from one of the four great families in Kinton.
Her methods of humiliating people are even more sophisticated than others."
However, Jane didn't express this in front of Byron, even though he appeared to be coldly observing
from the sidelines. Who knew if he would react like he did on previous occasions, suddenly crossing a
line and leaving her utterly hurt?
"Well, I've shown off enough. Does anyone else have the interest to come up and write together, to
exchange ideas?"
Chloe confidently spoke again after her calligraphy display.
At first glance, it seemed like an invitation for others to come and practice calligraphy together.
However, Chloe's gaze was fixed on Cora, almost provocative.
Seeing Cora unmoved, Chloe initiated the invitation from the stage. "Dr. Lane, why not give it a try?
Don't worry about how well you write. Consider it an exchange of ideas."
"Chloe Hurst!" Lucas could see through her intent, knowing that she was trying to force Cora to come
to the stage and become the laughingstock of the crowd."Mr. Quinn, don't be upset. I am inviting Dr. Lane to write a few characters for exchange. You know,
Mrs. Emily Quinn enjoys practicing calligraphy, and such gatherings will be common when joining the
Quinn family in the future. If we are so sensitive about this now, how will we handle it later?"
Chloe seemed to be advising Lucas, but in reality, she was indirectly exposing Cora's intrusion into
their relationship and forcing her into her trap.
Her reasoning was sound, making it difficult for Lucas to argue.
Lucas' father passed away early, and his mother was deeply devoted to calligraphy.
Under Emily's influence, the Quinn family regularly engaged in calligraphy discussions, having one
session almost every week. Indeed, quite a few people served as executives in the Calligraphy
Association.
If Cora truly wanted to be with Lucas, she would undoubtedly have to participate in these activities in
the future.
Lucas had considered waiting until he broke off his engagement with Chloe to focus on practicing
calligraphy with Cora, but he didn't expect Chloe to surprise him with this move.
Lucas was genuinely worried that Cora might lose control and make a mess of things, making it even
more difficult for them to be together and subjecting her to ridicule within the Kinton elite circle.
However, Lucas was unsure how to stop Chloe, especially in public.
Just then, Byron, whom Lucas secretly regarded as his rival since he began dating Cora, suddenly
sneered, "Does the Calligraphy Association have no members left? When organizing an event,
shouldn't you invite your members to demonstrate their calligraphy rather than forcing non-members to
do it?"
