She looked at the man sitting across from her and asked, \"This path is a dead end. What do we do now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t worry,\" Walker said calmly. \"I’ll handle it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe’s lovely brows knitted together. \"If you don’t tell me, my mind will just run wild. You should at least let me know what to expect so I can be prepared.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker lifted his gaze and stared at her. \"You’re safe for the short term.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe didn’t understand. She asked doubtfully, \"How can you guarantee that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A small smile played on Walker’s lips. \"William Quinn is here. His men won’t dare to make a move.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe tightened her grip on her chopsticks. \"But that’s just a temporary fix, not a real solution.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We have to take things one step at a time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker said, \"Let’s eat first. Try to forget about what happened tonight. From now on, if you see him, just stay away.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The thought of William Quinn’s unhinged behavior made Chloe’s blood run cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had witnessed the depths of human evil before, but she’d never encountered someone so utterly deranged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His moods were wildly unpredictable, and his thoughts were scattered. He could be laughing one second and crying the next.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And when she recalled what Walker had said about William Quinn crying as he hacked off his own siblings’ limbs, a wave of nausea washed over her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m not hungry. You go ahead and eat.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She said, putting down her chopsticks, her face a little pale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Walker’s sharp brows drew together. \"He really got to you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe didn’t say anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker put down his chopsticks as well, glanced at his watch, and then said, \"Alright, let’s do something else to take your mind off it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe was puzzled. \"Like what?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker said, \"There’s a movie theater nearby. Want to go see a movie?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe refused. \"No, I want to go see my grandmother.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Walker said, \"You’re not in the right state of mind. Your grandmother would see it in an instant. Do you want to make her worry?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come on. It’s just a movie. It doesn’t mean anything,\" Walker said, standing up. He walked over to her and reached for her hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe pulled her hand away. \"I can walk on my own.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker glanced at his empty palm and chuckled. \"Chloe Reed, are you just going to cast me aside now that you don’t need me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you a donkey?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe shot him a look. \"If that’s what you want to think, there’s nothing I can do.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker: \"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’There was really no winning with her.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was a mall nearby. Walker bought movie tickets on his phone, and as soon as they stepped into the theater, the rich aroma of popcorn filled the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After picking up the tickets, Chloe took them and started walking toward the ticket counter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait a second.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker, however, called out to her, then promptly turned and walked off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe asked, puzzled, \"Where are you going?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Be right back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Walker paid her no mind. The crowd swallowed him from view, and Chloe looked away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>About five minutes later, someone appeared in front of her. She looked up and saw Walker holding a tub of popcorn in one hand and a soda in the other, a faint smile on his sharp, handsome face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I saw all the other girls had some, and we can’t be left out, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe blinked, turned away, and said, \"I can’t eat any.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ll eat it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker followed behind her, a hint of laughter in his voice. \"But you might have to hold this for me. I don’t have a free hand for the ticket.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe took the tub of popcorn. After he had his ticket scanned, she tried to hand the popcorn back to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But to her surprise, he just pulled out his phone, made a call, and ignored her.\u003C\u002Fp>",671,"2026-06-06T12:35:59.743Z",1,"novelbin.me","0f0b1c343c6db0b9e14b88bd1d3d1c57e8a9278b8567ce234a8e0f8e265e2ee5","our-anniversary-you-chose-her-i-chose-divorce-chapter-422","our-anniversary-you-chose-her-i-chose-divorce-chapter-292",518,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Four-anniversary-you-chose-her-i-chose-divorce-cover.jpg"]
