From the moment she offered to take care of me, I knew she had an ulterior motive.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed looked confused. \"Then why did you let her stay and take care of you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her grandmother sighed. \"It’s absurd, I know, but I wanted to see if there was any sincerity in her at all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the result was, inevitably, a disappointment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed leaned her head on the bed by her grandmother’s hand again, her heart aching.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’That’s her own daughter. The daughter she carried for nine months, the one she brought into this world with such high hopes.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’To be treated like this by her now... how could her grandmother not be utterly disheartened?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed closed her eyes for a moment. \"I’ll make her apologize to you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her grandmother just gave a faint smile, saying nothing more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「The next day.」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed was busy until noon, when she received a call from Charles Reed. \"I brought your mother to see your grandmother, but we can’t get in.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ll be right there,\" Chloe Reed said coolly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hung up, said a quick word to Kyle Coleman, and left for the hospital.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she reached the door to the hospital room, she saw Charles Reed and Autumn Linton standing there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her gaze landed squarely on Autumn Linton.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though it had only been a few days, Autumn Linton had grown thin and haggard, losing the radiant glow she usually wore as a society wife.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed’s expression was impassive. She walked over and asked Charles Reed directly, \"Are you here to apologize to Grandma?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Autumn Linton looked at her, her eyes wavering. \"Chloe...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Charles Reed nodded. \"Yes. Your mother knows she was wrong, so she came specifically to apologize to your grandmother.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then go ahead.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ignoring Autumn Linton, Chloe Reed pushed the door open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The caregivers were watching television with her grandmother. When Chloe Reed entered, she asked them to step out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The door closed, and she stood aside, watching them with indifferent eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Charles Reed’s face was full of apology. \"Mom, I didn’t know about what happened. If I had, I would have stopped her. She... she’s not well, that’s why she did it. Please, don’t hold it against her, okay?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old woman lay in her bed, her expression placid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Chloe Reed sneered. \"Stop trying to shift the blame. This shameless act of yours is disgusting.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Charles Reed’s brow furrowed. He shot her a look, wanting desperately to curse her out, but with the Reed Group being targeted so relentlessly, he could only bite his tongue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned to Autumn Linton beside him. \"Say something.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Autumn Linton flinched, then finally looked at the old woman. Her lips trembled as she spoke. \"Mom... I know I was wrong...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old woman finally spoke. \"You took me and used me to threaten Chloe. What did you want?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Autumn Linton’s face grew even paler. \"Mom... I never meant to hurt you. I just wanted to get back what belongs to Aunt Bowman. She saved my life. If it weren’t for her, I would have died...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she was a teenager, she had fallen into a river. Unable to swim, she was drowning when Aunt Bowman suddenly appeared and saved her. From that day on, her opinion of the woman changed, and she grew closer to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, the old woman gave a sudden, sharp laugh. \"So that’s the reason. I was wondering why you were always so good to her. Strictly speaking, she was the other woman, wasn’t she?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Autumn Linton’s hands clenched into fists. \"Mom, you can’t say that about Aunt Bowman! She never wanted to come between you and Dad. She just wanted to watch from a distance, content as long as Dad was happy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",643,"2026-06-06T12:35:59.743Z",1,"novelbin.me","b36ea04ffd55e7d877242d905f4904eb4929e398431453d35da81b4ff62c2924","our-anniversary-you-chose-her-i-chose-divorce-chapter-309","our-anniversary-you-chose-her-i-chose-divorce-chapter-307",518,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Four-anniversary-you-chose-her-i-chose-divorce-cover.jpg"]
