Chloe Reed froze for a moment before it all came back to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back in freshman year, she had wanted to get closer to Walker Grant and confess her feelings, so she wrote him a letter. After finding out which dorm he lived in, she waited for him by the entrance to the building.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was when Miles Hawthorne saw her. He walked right over with a smile and asked, \"Who are you looking for?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed had been terribly shy back then, but her eyes were sparkling. \"I’m looking for Walker Grant.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He’s my roommate. What do you need him for?\" Miles Hawthorne asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Chloe Reed’s eyes instantly lit up. She handed him the envelope in her hand. \"In that case, can you give this to him for me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Miles Hawthorne glanced at the envelope and raised an eyebrow. \"A love letter, huh.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s not...\" Flustered at being found out, Chloe Reed was extremely shy. \"Anyway, thank you for your trouble! Thanks!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, she turned and ran off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the memory flooded back, a smile appeared on Chloe Reed’s face. \"It’s you. I haven’t seen you in so many years. What have you been up to?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Miles Hawthorne sighed. \"My family shipped me off abroad before I even graduated. Once my time was up, I came back. Simple as that.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked at her pale face and red-rimmed eyes, asking in confusion, \"What are you doing on the street by yourself? You don’t look well. Are you feeling sick?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed shook her head. \"I’m fine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Miles Hawthorne said, \"Where are you headed? I can give you a ride. It’s not safe for you to be wandering the streets like this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed forced a slight smile. \"Thank you, but it’s okay. I’ll just get a cab home.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Something was clearly wrong with her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Miles Hawthorne’s brow furrowed. He took her by the arm. \"You’re in no state to be by yourself; I can’t just let you go off alone. Let me give you a ride. I’m Walker’s friend, and since you and he are married, that makes us friends too. Come on, I’ll take you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed was indeed in a very unstable state. She smiled at Miles Hawthorne. \"Thank you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t be so formal.\" Miles Hawthorne helped her into the car, then got in and sat beside her. \"You know,\" he began, \"it’s still a bit of a shame I couldn’t make it back for your wedding. I even played a part in you two getting together.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed lowered her gaze, tightly clutching the hem of her clothes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Miles Hawthorne looked at her suspiciously. \"Did you two... have a fight?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed looked at him and said, \"You didn’t make it for the wedding, but you’re here for the divorce.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What?!\" Miles Hawthorne was stunned. \"You’re getting a divorce? But you two were so good together, and you’ve been married for years. Why the sudden divorce?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed said, \"He’s fallen in love with his sister-in-law.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Impossible.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Miles Hawthorne immediately refuted it. \"I may not have seen him in years, but I know how much he loves you. He could never fall for someone else, let alone his sister-in-law.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed’s lips curled into a scornful smile. \"Stop the car. I’ll get home on my own.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Miles Hawthorne’s brow was knitted. \"Isn’t there some kind of misunderstanding? Why don’t I ask him for you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That won’t be necessary.\" Chloe Reed’s tone turned cold. \"Stop the car.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her expression was just as cold. Seeing this, Miles Hawthorne didn’t press the issue. \"No, don’t worry, we’re almost there. I won’t ask again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The atmosphere in the car turned heavy. When they arrived, Chloe Reed got out and walked away without a single look back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not even a thank you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching her retreating back, Miles Hawthorne murmured, then pulled his gaze away. \"Go straight to the hospital,\" he said.\u003C\u002Fp>",658,"2026-06-06T12:35:59.463Z",1,"novelbin.me","ab6a373d8c2572df17a4c21ed5d5f618aaf1d05459b365e1062e0999ca05d2b6","our-anniversary-you-chose-her-i-chose-divorce-chapter-39","our-anniversary-you-chose-her-i-chose-divorce-chapter-37",518,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Four-anniversary-you-chose-her-i-chose-divorce-cover.jpg"]
