Chloe won’t see me at all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Charles Reed closed his eyes for a moment and said, \"Do as Walker Grant said. Save the Reed Group first.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Autumn Linton sighed. \"This is just too much. How could Chloe let Walker Grant target us like this? We’re her parents.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Charles Reed had no mind for such things right now. He contacted Walker Grant, agreed to his demands, and arranged for a dinner at a restaurant, planning to discuss the matter over the meal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As before, it was Dylan Finch who answered the call.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I will relay your message to Mr. Grant,\" Dylan Finch said, his tone polite but distant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hanging up, Charles Reed looked exhausted, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes seeming to deepen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed stared at the strands of hair in her hand, a complicated expression on her small face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She desperately didn’t want to believe it, but she had to do this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Sunny Reed came to the Reed family, she had been the apple of her parents’ eye, doted on and adored.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was why she had never been willing to consider whether she was truly their biological daughter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, one incident after another had forced her to wonder, to doubt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’If I’m not, I’ll be so relieved.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’But if I am...’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed couldn’t bear to imagine it—facing such biased parents for the rest of her life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She carefully put the hair away. She would get a paternity test done after she was discharged from the hospital.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I have to keep this from them.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’If they find out, what if they try to tamper with the results?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「That evening.」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The door to her hospital room opened, and Walker Grant’s tall, imposing figure walked in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed glanced at him and said, \"My injuries are almost healed. I don’t want to stay in the hospital anymore.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay. Then we won’t come back tomorrow,\" Walker Grant agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing how easily he agreed, a flicker of surprise appeared in Chloe Reed’s clear eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker Grant said, \"We’re going out to eat tonight. I brought you some clothes. Go get changed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed’s lovely brows furrowed. She was resistant to the idea of going out to eat with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she really did want to get out for some fresh air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She took the bag and went into the restroom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After changing, she came out. Walker Grant stepped forward to take her hand, but she dodged him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She asked, \"What are we eating?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker Grant looked at his empty palm, then at her pretending to straighten her sleeves. His eyes darkened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t press the issue, his tone gentle as he said, \"A restaurant you really like.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay, let’s go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed walked toward the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once outside the hospital, Chloe Reed took a deep breath, feeling like she had come back to life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A driver was waiting by the entrance. Walker Grant stepped forward to open the car door for her, and she got in without hesitation, ducking into the vehicle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker Grant followed her in, then took out a small box and offered it to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"See if you like it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed didn’t take it. She was busy replying to a message on her phone, ignoring him completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker Grant’s hand froze in mid-air. His deep, dark eyes were fixed on her, unblinking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chloe, this is the brand you’ve always loved. It’s a new piece I ordered. Just take a look.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without so much as a flutter of her eyelashes, Chloe Reed said, \"Just because I liked it before doesn’t mean I like it now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker Grant slowly pulled his hand back and opened the box. Inside lay a purple diamond bracelet of a novel design. As the light caught the gems, the diamonds scattered a brilliant, dreamlike radiance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took her hand, intending to put the bracelet on for her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed’s brow furrowed. \"I said I don’t like it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>",667,"2026-06-06T12:35:59.743Z",1,"novelbin.me","c0f8ff189fa97e3a38ca5414c025ee362333f931fdb45117345feaf7b67de39c","our-anniversary-you-chose-her-i-chose-divorce-chapter-208","our-anniversary-you-chose-her-i-chose-divorce-chapter-300",518,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Four-anniversary-you-chose-her-i-chose-divorce-cover.jpg"]
