How can I have a nephew?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you going to keep being unreasonable?\" Charles Reed was practically fuming. \"Get over here right now!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed was about to refuse flat out, but then she had an idea. She said coolly, \"Fine, I’ll go. Just send the money.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What did you say?!\" Charles Reed couldn’t believe his ears. \"He’s your nephew.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed replied frostily, \"I haven’t been able to stand Sunny Reed for a long, long time. If you don’t give me some incentive, I’ll go there and cause a huge scene. It’s your family that’ll lose face, anyway. What’s it got to do with me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You little wretch...\" Charles Reed was so enraged he nearly fainted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed leisurely twirled a pen in her hand, in no hurry at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Charles Reed wanted sisterly harmony and a thriving family. He would inevitably have to tolerate her.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How much do you want?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure enough, his voice came through, thick with suppressed anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed’s lips curled into a smile. \"I’m a little short on cash lately. Let’s say eight million for now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Charles Reed said through gritted teeth, \"I’ve wired you the money. You’d better be on your best behavior when you get here!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed laughed. \"I will.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her mood lifted the moment the transfer confirmation came through.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Money really does bring happiness!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She quickly got ready and headed straight for the Grant Family Estate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Madam Grant had returned to the estate to recuperate once her health was mostly restored, with a doctor on call 24\u002F7.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The party was being held outdoors on the sprawling, decorated lawn, and many of the guests had brought their children.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment Chloe Reed appeared, people came over to greet her. After all, she still held the title as the wife of the Grant family’s second son.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mrs. Grant, what are you doing here by yourself? I saw Mr. Grant returned a while ago. He’s over there with his sister-in-law.\" Someone approached to make small talk, but their words were laced with mockery, their eyes gleaming with the thrill of gossip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed looked at the woman with feigned astonishment. \"You don’t know? Walker Grant is in love with his sister-in-law!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman was stunned. She never imagined Chloe would be the one to say something like that out loud!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Isn’t she embarrassed?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’And she looked like she was enjoying the gossip herself?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, the woman was at a loss for words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Chloe Reed just smiled faintly and said, \"Alas, you probably didn’t know. He only married me to cover up that fact. Now that you all know, I don’t have to hide it anymore.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chloe Reed!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The words had barely left her lips when Walker Grant’s icy voice cut through the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He strode toward them, dressed in a custom-tailored suit. His features were sharp and handsome, his dark eyes deep and profound, and he radiated a glacial chill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wrapped an arm around her shoulder, his lips curving into a smile that didn’t reach his eyes. \"Stop talking nonsense,\" he said. \"Everyone knows I only love you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman, holding a glass of champagne, sheepishly walked away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed looked at him. \"Are you angry?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A cold fury churned in Walker Grant’s eyes. \"Of all days, can you please not cause trouble?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Chloe Reed just laughed and held out her hand to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker Grant raised an eyebrow slightly. \"What?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hush money,\" Chloe Reed said, batting her lovely, limpid eyes. \"If you don’t want me to talk, then pay up. Once I’ve been paid, I’ll naturally keep my mouth shut.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker Grant: \"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was so angry a vein throbbed on his temple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She, on the other hand, wore an expression that said she was enjoying the drama and wouldn’t mind if it got bigger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His tone was strained. \"Saying things like that damages your own reputation too. Why bother?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",671,"2026-06-06T12:35:59.463Z",1,"novelbin.me","f43a2e70eb50bf322c4042e57c5242fd22a2bcb97e0435f8dce983c1e81522c1","our-anniversary-you-chose-her-i-chose-divorce-chapter-50","our-anniversary-you-chose-her-i-chose-divorce-chapter-48",518,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Four-anniversary-you-chose-her-i-chose-divorce-cover.jpg"]
