Seeing her pale complexion, he said gently, \"I’ve contacted the best cardiologist. They’ll be here in a few days. She’ll be fine, so don’t worry.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed’s long lashes trembled, and she pressed her lips together without a word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker Grant then turned to Charles Reed, his tone growing colder. \"Even now, you’re still blaming her. It seems you’ve made your choice.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Between the Reed Group and Sunny Reed, he had chosen Sunny.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The muscles in Charles Reed’s face twitched violently. He glared at Walker Grant, livid. \"You...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he couldn’t manage another word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker Grant’s dark, intense eyes simply watched him calmly. He hadn’t left, which meant Charles Reed still had a chance to change his tune.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment he walked out of this hospital room, things would spiral completely out of control.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Helplessness filled Charles Reed’s eyes. He looked at Chloe Reed, his earlier bluster gone. \"Chloe, I was wrong to blame you, and I shouldn’t have laid a hand on you. It will never happen again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed’s heart gave a violent tremor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker Grant looked at her and asked, \"Do you want to go home and rest?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Charles Reed said, \"Walker Grant, the Reed Group is her foundation. Please, go easy on it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Walker Grant didn’t answer him, his gaze fixed solely on Chloe Reed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed, however, shook her head. \"I’m not going back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, then I’ll stay here with you,\" Walker Grant said, pulling over a chair for her to sit on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hospital room fell silent once more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An unknown amount of time passed before a faint murmur came from the bed. \"Chloe...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed snapped her head up to see Autumn Linton looking at her, her eyes slightly red, reaching out a hand toward her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed hesitated for a moment before taking her hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t say such silly things, alright? You’re my daughter. How could you talk about cutting ties?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Autumn Linton’s voice was trembling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed opened her mouth to say something, but her throat felt like it was stuffed with cotton, making it incredibly difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She felt as if she were being torn apart, and the pain was unbearable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chloe?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing her remain silent, Autumn Linton started to grow anxious again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not wanting to see her mother pass out again—or worse, never wake up—Chloe Reed closed her eyes and agreed in a hoarse voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only then did Autumn Linton let out a sigh of relief, squeezing her hand tightly. \"Your father was wrong to hit you; he was just too worried. And I didn’t handle this well, either. I want to apologize, too. Chloe, I’m so sorry.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sudden sting filled Chloe Reed’s eyes. She averted her gaze and said, \"You should rest. I’m going to go home.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Autumn Linton nodded. \"Okay. It’s late, go get some rest.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed turned and quickly left the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker Grant followed, taking in her struggle and pain. She had always been a soft-hearted person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She, too, longed to be her parents’ favorite, to be chosen unconditionally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at her pale profile, an indescribable feeling welled up inside him. He stepped forward and took her hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chloe, I’ll take you home.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don’t need you to.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Chloe Reed pulled her hand away and quickened her pace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was late at night by now, and the area outside the hospital was quiet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed flagged down a taxi and got right in. Just as she was about to tell the driver to hurry, the passenger-side door opened, and Walker Grant climbed in as well.\u003C\u002Fp>",649,"2026-06-06T12:35:59.743Z",1,"novelbin.me","4cbc4c5f4b560a3703045893023c8c085e7dfac4a57c5bb6054773fbba29e6c5","our-anniversary-you-chose-her-i-chose-divorce-chapter-434","our-anniversary-you-chose-her-i-chose-divorce-chapter-210",518,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Four-anniversary-you-chose-her-i-chose-divorce-cover.jpg"]
