Why not?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m dealing with some other things. Once they’re taken care of, I’ll reconsider opening the studio,\" Chloe said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Annie York bit her lip gently, her eyes flickering as she said, \"Then... I’ll find another job and work hard to pay you back!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe smiled faintly. \"Don’t worry about it. You can finish your studies first.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Annie York was exceptionally firm. \"I will study hard, and I’ll work hard to earn money too. Miss Reed, you’ve been so good to me. I won’t let you down.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’The young woman is so determined and strong. She’ll definitely have a boundless future.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stood up. \"I’ll go wash some fruit.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe was a little surprised. \"Don’t you need to go to your friend’s place?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Annie York shook her head. \"No, he’s already asleep.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a pause, she added, \"I’ll keep you company for a bit. You must be so bored all by yourself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’d be nice.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe was indeed very bored. It would be nice to have someone to chat with.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Annie York washed the fruit and even peeled an apple for her. Then she glanced at the time and asked, \"Miss Reed, are you staying here tonight?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe took a bite of the apple and nodded. \"Mhm. Barring any surprises, yes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Annie York said, \"Watching over a patient is exhausting. Why don’t I help you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No need.\" Chloe shook her head. \"I’m going to hire a caregiver.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Annie’s eyes flickered. She hesitated for a good while before saying, \"I have experience taking care of patients. Instead of hiring a caregiver, why not let me do it? That way, I can pay off my debt, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe was a little surprised. \"You really can?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mhm, I can!\" Annie York nodded. \"My mother is paralyzed. I’ve been taking care of her.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then if you’re out here, is your mom okay?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Annie York shook her head. \"She’s fine. I made all the arrangements for her before I came out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe said, \"If it won’t interfere with taking care of your mother, then of course you can stay. It doesn’t have to be all day. Three hours a day is fine. You can come at any time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Annie York was thrilled. \"Okay, thank you, Miss Reed!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe shook her head. \"You don’t have to call me that. I’m older than you, so you can just call me by my name.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Annie York said shyly, \"Chloe.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mhm, that’s much better.\" Chloe smiled faintly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Annie York turned and went to the bedside. Seeing Walker Grant sweating, she said, \"Let me get some water to wipe him down. He’s sweating a lot.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’She slipped into the role quickly.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe nodded. \"Okay.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Annie York moved quickly and efficiently. She was soon back with a basin of water and a towel. She soaked the towel, wrung it out, and began wiping the sweat from Walker’s face and neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t wipe his body. He has injuries that can’t get wet,\" Chloe said from the side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, okay.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With her back to Chloe, Annie wiped Walker’s arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her face was flushed. Looking at the unconscious Walker, at his handsome features, her heart started beating very fast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’He’s so handsome!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’He’s just Miss Reed’s friend, so does that mean I can pursue him?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I’ll test the waters when he wakes up.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Annie York wiped him down several times. It wasn’t until his fever broke that she said, \"Miss Reed, I think he’s okay now. His fever is gone.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe walked over and touched his forehead, then immediately called for a doctor.\u003C\u002Fp>",611,"2026-06-06T12:35:59.743Z",1,"novelbin.me","a476dfac6be58a62f4ae806d4cfb397339f8d12463cd8fa999edb3763a134f6e","our-anniversary-you-chose-her-i-chose-divorce-chapter-201","our-anniversary-you-chose-her-i-chose-divorce-chapter-412",518,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Four-anniversary-you-chose-her-i-chose-divorce-cover.jpg"]
