Chapter 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.

“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 pa*sed 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?”
