Seeing the healthy color in her cheeks, some of the tension in his gaze faded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They left the company and went to the coffee shop across the street.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed sat down and looked at him coolly. \"Did you want something?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A somber expression clouded Walker Grant’s handsome face. He reached up and pressed his temples. \"Noah got lost last night,\" he said. \"He got himself stuck in a playhouse and couldn’t get out. The playhouse was under repair, and the area was pitch-black. He fell asleep in there. I sent my men over, and it still took them a long time to find him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed called a waiter over and ordered a coffee.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker Grant stared at her impassive face and continued, \"Noah was terrified, so I took him back to Jardinelle last night.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At his words, Chloe Reed’s expression changed, but she quickly regained her composure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She desperately told herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I’m done with him. So I’m done with everything connected to him, too. That includes our marital home, the one that holds all our happy memories.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’So what does it matter to me who he brings back there?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Even if he brought a dozen women home at once, that’s his business.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed took a deep breath. Her coffee arrived just then, and she lifted the cup for a sip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker Grant’s brow furrowed. \"Chloe, I didn’t mean to break my word last night.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed set down her coffee cup, her expression perfectly calm. \"Are you done?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her calmness was suffocating him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stared at her intently, searching for any flicker of emotion in her expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That would at least be a sign she still cared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But there was none.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She finished her coffee and said, \"If there’s nothing else, I’m going back to work.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker Grant lowered his gaze slightly, his voice deepening. \"Chloe, I’m trying to explain.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, I heard you.\" Chloe Reed nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker Grant looked up at her. \"And you have nothing to say?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed considered it for a moment. \"Actually, I do.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker Grant watched her, waiting for her to continue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She curved her lips into a smile. \"In the future,\" she said, \"don’t bother telling me about trivial things like this. It makes no difference to me whether I know or not.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, she stood up to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Walker Grant shot out a hand and grabbed her wrist. His grip was strong, making it impossible for her to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed’s brows knitted together. \"What do you think you’re doing?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re my wife. You have a right to know about these things, and I won’t hide them from you,\" Walker Grant said in a low voice. \"And you shouldn’t be this calm.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Isn’t it obvious?\" Chloe Reed lowered her gaze to him. \"I’ve told you so many times already. I don’t care about you anymore.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The grip on her wrist tightened, as if it would shatter her bones, yet she felt no pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blue veins bulged on the back of his hand, and the air around him chilled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You really don’t care?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed nodded. \"That’s right.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Very good.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker Grant suddenly smirked. He stood up, cupped the back of her head, and kissed her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed froze for a second before immediately wiping her lips with the back of her hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Walker Grant said, \"I thought you didn’t care. What do you call this, then?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed’s expression turned frigid. \"You’re an asshole, aren’t you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What, did you just meet me today?\" Walker Grant gazed at her. \"Chloe, and I haven’t just met you, either. You care about me. You just won’t admit it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",619,"2026-06-06T12:35:59.743Z",1,"novelbin.me","527cd1ab608aea1b92eecba29e6dc6c8131dcd8b5f8a861859491e1d592cd105","our-anniversary-you-chose-her-i-chose-divorce-chapter-298","our-anniversary-you-chose-her-i-chose-divorce-chapter-203",518,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Four-anniversary-you-chose-her-i-chose-divorce-cover.jpg"]
