Greg’s wife, who had been happily recording with her phone, immediately looked
crestfallen after receiving the text.

I’m sorry.
But I didn’t make anything up. These were the exact words Greg had said to Chloe in their SnapChat conversations.
Moreover, this was indeed what Chloe was thinking right now.
After Greg left the stage, he seemed to notice his wife’s low mood and asked her a few
questions. His wife, with a cold face, said nothing and just kept staring intently at every young woman who went on stage to perform.
At this moment, my phone rang. It was Chloe’s parents.
“Yes, Uncle, you can come in directly. I’m right at the entrance of the lobby.”
Accompanying Chloe’s parents was Ryan.
Knowing that I had helped him find a comfortable, high–paying job, Ryan greeted me with an unusually bright smile, calling me “brother–in–law” repeatedly, which he had never done
before.
This guy had never respected me from the bottom of his heart, otherwise he wouldn’t
have stayed in his room without even saying hello when I visited their home last time.
I returned a fake smile.
“Chloe’s performance will start soon. Right after it ends, I’ll go on stage to propose. The company staff will all cooperate.”
Finally, it was Chloe’s turn to perform.

There was first a gasp of admiration from the audience, followed by continuous cheers
and applause.
Chloe looked towards Greg, who was sitting at the front–row table, her eyes full of
challenge.
As if to say, “See? I’m young and beautiful. Can that old woman beside you compare?”
I crossed my arms, feeling incredibly excited inside.
The moment had finally come.
The big screen started playing the video.
After a brief intro, the beautiful background music began.
Chloe picked up the microphone and slowly started singing, soon immersing herself in her performance. But she didn’t notice that everyone in the audience had suddenly changed their expressions.
Yes, I had switched the MV. I kept the musical accompaniment but replaced the visuals with the video of her and Greg in the hotel room.
