Those blue eyes of his looked as if they could speak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker Grant, however, blocked his hand again and said calmly, \"My wife, Chloe Reed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>William Quinn froze for a moment, then his lips curled into a wide grin. His smile was so exaggerated it seemed to animate his entire face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So, this is your wife. The famous Miss Reed. I’ve heard so much about you. I’m honored to finally meet you today.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, his gaze landed on Chloe Reed’s face, growing even more brazen. He seemed to completely ignore the cold expression spreading across Walker Grant’s features, his blue eyes filled with interest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed felt uncomfortable. He was looking at her like she was a commodity—and a very valuable one at that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her brow furrowed, and her clear eyes took on a cold glint as she met William Quinn’s gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>William Quinn burst out laughing. \"Mrs. Grant, you’ve got some nerve. No one has ever dared to look at me like that.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He leaned in closer, a wide grin on his face. \"Do you know what happened to the last person who looked at me like that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His fingers curled into a claw, his blue eyes filled with an excited gleam. \"I gouged his eyes out!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"AGH!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next second, William Quinn let out a cry of agony.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker Grant had grabbed his hand and, with a sharp twist, snapped his finger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A furious expression instantly appeared on William Quinn’s face. \"Walker Grant, how dare you do this to me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker Grant’s eyes were cold, his aura sharp. \"Your name may be William Quinn, but you have no manners. What if you had frightened my wife, treating her like that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>William Quinn was furious. A tsunami seemed to be brewing in his blue eyes. He glanced at his broken finger and said coldly, \"Ten million.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker Grant arched an eyebrow. \"Show my wife some respect. Otherwise, I’d be willing to pay a hundred million for all ten of your fingers.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>William Quinn scoffed, turned, and sat back down on the sofa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker Grant took Chloe Reed’s hand and said gently, \"Don’t be afraid.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed pressed her lips together. \"Is he a madman?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, you could put it that way,\" Walker Grant replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The leader of the world’s second-ranked mercenary organization was, indeed, a madman. The battle that had made him famous was the one where he chopped off the arms and legs of his half-siblings, leaving only their bare torsos. He then hung them from a giant fishing rod and presented them to his father at the man’s birthday banquet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man was vicious, sinister, and incredibly volatile. The moment he was displeased, someone was bound to suffer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he loved money.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as the price was right, he’d do anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker Grant led Chloe Reed over to the sofa and sat down with her. \"His organization has accepted a contract to assassinate you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed’s back went rigid. Her gaze, when it fell on William Quinn, was now tinged with wariness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>William Quinn’s finger was broken, but he seemed to feel no pain, allowing a nearby bodyguard to set and bandage it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He watched them whispering to each other, his expression suddenly going blank. After a long moment, he said, \"She was deceived by that scumbag in just the same way.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Walker Grant’s brows drew together. \"Let’s talk price.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>William Quinn’s gaze fell on Chloe Reed’s face, and a flicker of longing passed through the depths of his blue eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’A similar Eastern face... But she had left him when he was very young.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’He had watched with his own eyes as she leaped from a tall building.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’She didn’t want him anymore.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I want her.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>William Quinn, however, pointed a finger straight at Chloe Reed, his gaze fixed on her as he stated his condition.\u003C\u002Fp>",660,"2026-06-06T12:35:59.743Z",1,"novelbin.me","c4bd6d88a5f73c6743e08dbb4c75f98db52e46dc2d3796537047fb162fac917b","our-anniversary-you-chose-her-i-chose-divorce-chapter-290","our-anniversary-you-chose-her-i-chose-divorce-chapter-142",518,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Four-anniversary-you-chose-her-i-chose-divorce-cover.jpg"]
