After a moment, she suddenly looked up at Chloe Reed and said, \"I don’t regret it. I believe I can change him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed’s lips twitched. \"Then good luck to you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stopped looking at Selene Adler.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside, she was in agony.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It felt as if a steel wire were strangling her heart, each throb a new wave of searing pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Setting up my own husband with another woman.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hah!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’To think I’d actually stoop to this.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She picked up her spoon and agitatedly stirred her coffee, her frustration mounting once more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t know how much time had passed before a sound came from the entrance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed instinctively looked up to see Walker Grant’s tall, well-built figure approaching.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A complicated look filled her eyes. Just a moment ago, she had been wishing he wouldn’t show up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, he had already strode right up to her. His long, dark, almond-shaped eyes were fixed on her, a smile playing in their depths.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Catching up with a friend?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He glanced at Selene Adler, not recognizing her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then pulled out the chair beside Chloe Reed and sat down, draping his arm naturally around the back of her seat in a half-embrace, a gesture brimming with possessiveness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed suppressed the turmoil in her heart. \"This is a new friend of mine, Selene Adler,\" she said. \"She’s a finance graduate and is having a tough time finding a job.

That way, if something happens to you while you’re out, she can contact me right away.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walker Grant studied her unnaturally calm face, then leaned in closer. \"Worried about me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mhm.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His presence enveloped her, making it hard for her to breathe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ache in her heart grew sharper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She couldn’t bear to stay a moment longer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But her objective wasn’t met yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’How were they supposed to get to know each other if they didn’t exchange numbers?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She fought to suppress her emotions and looked up at him. \"Just add her.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright.\" Walker Grant took out his phone. \"Whatever you say.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Selene Adler, who had been waiting, scanned his code and sent a friend request.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Walker Grant put his phone away, turning instead to take Chloe Reed’s hand. \"Are you two done talking?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Chloe Reed pulled her hand away. \"Not yet. We just got here, and we’re planning to go shopping later.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Walker Grant pressed, \"Chloe, you have to save some time for me, too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But just as the words left his mouth, his phone rang. It was that special, dedicated ringtone again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chloe Reed closed her eyes, her frustration reaching its peak.
