Chapter 222: Refusal is Useless

Chloe Reed: [I don’t think so.]

Owen Sterling: [But I’ve never had this much trouble in my life. Ever since I met Mr. Grant... my luck just ran out.]

Owen Sterling: [When are you free? Can we meet? If it really was Mr. Grant, could you please try to talk to him?]

Chloe Reed’s fingers tightened. Just as she was hesitating, a voice spoke from above. "We’re on the first floor."

Chloe Reed immediately locked her phone and shoved it into her pocket.

The car was parked right at the main entrance, and the driver respectfully opened the door.

"Mr. Grant, Ma’am."

"Mm."

Walker Grant acknowledged quietly, letting Chloe Reed get into the car first before getting in from the other side.

Chloe Reed stared out the window, her expression particularly cold.

Walker Grant spoke up. "There’s a dinner party in a few days. You’ll be attending with me."

Chloe Reed refused outright. "I’m not going."

But Walker Grant said slowly, "The dinner party, or being locked up at home. You choose."
