If you can stay away from Sunny Reed and Noah Grant, I’ll listen to you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She tilted her head slightly, a provocative and mocking light in her glistening eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Walker, can you do that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have nothing to do with my sister-in-law,\" Walker said, his tone grim. \"So this deal is unfair.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The smile vanished from Chloe’s lips, replaced by even more obvious mockery. \"In that case, I won’t be listening to you. Let go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker’s tall frame pressed down on her. They had been kissing passionately just moments before, yet now she was so cold and distant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No kiss, no matter how fiery, could make her lose herself in the moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She could pull back and clear her head in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker gritted his teeth, yanked open the passenger door, and shoved her inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe froze. \"What are you doing?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker leaned in and gripped her chin, his dark eyes fixed on her. \"Chloe, quit your job.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as if a bomb had gone off in Chloe’s head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her eyes widened in disbelief. \"What did you say?! You’re trying to force me to quit? Walker, you’re a fucking asshole!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She swung at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, Walker didn’t manage to dodge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the fury on her face, his tone grew calm. \"If you won’t listen to me, then you can stop working.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Never!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe gritted her teeth and glared at him. \"Walker, if you dare have the company fire me, I will fight you to the bitter end!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker’s brow furrowed. Without answering, he leaned over and fastened her seatbelt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, he got into the driver’s seat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The car pulled away, heading straight for Jardinelle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Get out,\" he told her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Chloe just glared at him coldly. \"Did you not hear me?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker stood beside the car, looking at her. She was like a porcupine with all its quills aimed right at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He said, \"Spend one night with me inside, and I won’t interfere with your work.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Asshole!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe cursed, her eyes turning even colder as she looked at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker remained unmoved. He had given her the options; now it was her turn to choose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When pushed, he was capable of anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, Chloe unbuckled her seatbelt. Her face an icy mask, she stalked toward the villa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment she stepped into the living room, the frigid atmosphere seemed to vanish. Lights came on one after another, and a wave of familiarity washed over her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe stood stunned for a moment before a warm body pressed against her from behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His long arms wrapped tightly around her, his hot breath ghosting across her neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He kissed her ear, then her neck, trying to arouse her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe’s brow furrowed, and her body went rigid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chloe.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker murmured her name, his voice deep and hoarse. He kissed her forcefully, leaving marks on her skin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The master bedroom was exactly as it had been, unchanged in the slightest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they fell onto the bed, Walker opened a drawer and took out a box.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A moment later, Chloe felt something slide onto her finger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She tried to look, but he kissed her again, lacing his fingers through hers on that same hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the time it was all over, she didn’t have the strength to look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she woke up the next day, Walker was gone. She glanced at her right hand. Her fingers were bare; there was no ring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Was last night just a hallucination?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe was bewildered, but she didn’t dwell on it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she arrived at the office, she saw Owen Sterling packing up his desk. He gave her a complicated look when he saw her and said, \"Chloe Reed, I’ve been fired.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",624,"2026-06-06T12:35:59.743Z",1,"novelbin.me","4cf29291b41a5e0d4b391e2d0b793a180ca6d2270269ca7e7a6e2e72c430e4da","our-anniversary-you-chose-her-i-chose-divorce-chapter-447","our-anniversary-you-chose-her-i-chose-divorce-chapter-227",518,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Four-anniversary-you-chose-her-i-chose-divorce-cover.jpg"]
