I looked into it and found out that she’s been taken to the police station.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Preston Vance’s light brown eyes narrowed slightly behind his rimless glasses, and a hint of confusion appeared on his handsome face. \"What happened?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ian Spencer frowned. \"She pushed the young madam of the Grant family—her adoptive sister—down the stairs.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a pause, he said with a heavy expression, \"Mr. Vance, her personality seems so unstable. Are we sure we want to cooperate with her?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Preston Vance thought for a moment before saying, \"Although I’ve only met her once, I don’t believe she’s that kind of person. Which police station is she at now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ian Spencer was taken aback. \"Mr. Vance, are you going to see her?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes,\" Preston Vance replied. \"There must be some misunderstanding. If possible, I’d like to get her out. It would also be a way to repay her for saving my life.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ian Spencer’s expression was complicated, but he went to investigate anyway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「Night fell.」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed was taken to a separate cell. Iron bars trapped her inside, layers of shackles keeping her from leaving.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She sat on the wooden plank bed, her face pale and her eyes vacant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, a police officer walked over and said, \"Someone’s here to see you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed’s eyelashes trembled, and she immediately closed her eyes. \"I’m not seeing anyone.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Miss Reed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But to her surprise, a gentle, familiar voice called out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed froze. She turned her head and saw Preston Vance standing outside, watching her with a gentle smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Vance, what... what are you doing here?\" she asked, bewildered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Preston Vance gestured with the documents in his hand. \"Have you forgotten about the cooperation we agreed on, Miss Reed? My people couldn’t reach you, so I took the liberty of having your location looked up. I didn’t expect to find you in such a... unique place.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed’s mind went blank for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’He already knows I’m in a police station, yet he still wants to sign a contract with me? He even came in person?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Preston Vance looked at her gently. \"Miss Reed, are you ready to sign the contract now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed’s chapped lips moved. \"I don’t have a company, nor do I hold a position in one. I can’t sign a contract with you. I worked so hard only because I wanted to facilitate the cooperation between the Reed Group and the Vance Group. But now... I don’t think it’s necessary anymore.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Preston Vance paused, sensing a deeper meaning in her words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From what his investigation had turned up, he also learned that the Reed family seemed to be extremely biased toward their adoptive daughter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He set the documents down and smiled faintly. \"I respect your decision. Whatever you want to do is fine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why?\" Chloe Reed looked at him and asked, completely lost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why what?\" Preston Vance asked, looking back at her in confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed lowered her gaze slightly, her fingers curling as she spoke softly, \"I’m in a police station right now. I can’t possibly be a good business partner. Why would you still come here to deliver the contract?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’He even came to deliver it himself.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing her words, the curve of Preston Vance’s lips deepened. He gazed at her intently. \"I don’t believe that someone who would rush to help a stranger whose life was in danger could be a cold-blooded person who would hurt others.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He reached up to adjust his glasses and said, \"From my brief interactions with you, I believe you are a very kind person.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",646,"2026-06-06T12:35:59.743Z",1,"novelbin.me","c16bbded46b3dca706b148834a7b38e013656137f87ae1c346b17451b68c5b75","our-anniversary-you-chose-her-i-chose-divorce-chapter-185","our-anniversary-you-chose-her-i-chose-divorce-chapter-245",518,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Four-anniversary-you-chose-her-i-chose-divorce-cover.jpg"]
