Rural Belle & Three Heirs by Harper Hall

Chapter 146 Grant's Exclusivity

The figure, holding their phone, discreetly snapped a blurry photo of Grant and Chloe sharing a passionate kiss.

The camera's lens struggled to focus through the glass, and the angle was less than ideal with Grant's back to

the window. The resulting image was hazy, with Grant's face obscured, but Chloe's half-face appeared clearly,

her expression unmistakably intimate.

Within minutes, both Nicholas and Louis received the sphoto on their phones. Nicholas, wearing his reading

glasses, squinted at the screen. His brow furrowed in confusion as he examined the image. The photo's poor

quality left much to the imagination, but Chloe's partial face was undeniably recognizable.

He turned to the family butler, Felix Thornton, who was standing nearby. "Felix, ctake a look at this,"

Nicholas said, his voice a mix of curiosity and concern. Felix stepped closer, peering at the phone over Nicholas's

shoulder. "Is that Chloe? Who's she kissing? Michael or Liam?"

Nicholas immediately ruled out Grant, considering Grant was at least seven or eight years older than Chloe. From

what he knew about Chloe, she seemed to prefer younger guys.

Otherwise, why would her room be plastered with posters of young, muscular men? Felix glanced at the photo

and said, "Mr. Davis, | can't tell for sure, but I think it might be Michael."

"Why do you think it's Michael?" Nicholas asked, looking up at Felix.

Felix explained, "Mr. Davis, have you been following the news lately? Ms. Davis has been rumored to be involved

with Michael."

Felix's reasoning made sense, but Nicholas still had his doubts. "Why not Liam? | think he's pretty good too, with

his motorcycle skills and all..." Nicholas admired Liam.

He believed young people should be bold and adventurous. If he were younger, he might have joined Liam on his

motorcycle rides.

Felix shook his head after another look at the photo. "It can't be Liam. No matter how good he is on a

motorcycle, can he be better than Ms. Davis? Mr. Davis, do you think she would be interested in someone who

isn't as skilled as she is?"

Felix's analysis was spot on, and Nicholas couldn't help but nod in agreement. Felix had always been insightful,

and his observations often hit the mark.

Indeed, he knew his granddaughter well. She was always competitive and wouldn't be interested in someone she

could easily outshine.

Just as Nicholas and Felix finished their conversation, Louis called.

On the phone, Louis excitedly reported, "Nicholas, they kissed!"

Nicholas replied, "Yeah, | saw it too. This means your grandkids are doing well."

It was rare for Nicholas to praise his grandsons, and Louis was delighted. "That's right. My three kids are pretty

good. But the photo is blurry, and | can't tell which one Chloe kissed. If | knew who it was, | could focus on

grooming him."

Louis valued the potential union between the Davis and Martin families, knowing the benefits it would bring to

the Martin family.

Nicholas snorted, "You need to groom all three of them. Louis, lettell you, Chloe is going to marry into your

Martin family. You better make sure your grandsons treat her well. If anyone dares to mistreat her, just wait and

see."

Despite sending Chloe to Sovereign City, Nicholas was still very protective of her.

Louis quickly reassured him, "Don't worry, I'll make sure my grandsons behave." His voice was confident, and

Nicholas could sense the underlying determination to keep his promise.

In the following days, Chloe stayed in the hospital, with Grant constantly by her side.

However, Grant wasn't exactly on his best behavior. Whenever they were alone, he would seize the opportunity

to kiss Chloe passionately. His advances were relentless, and Chloe found herself unable to escape his

affectionate assaults. She had to endure his touch, his lips pressing against hers with a fervor that left her

breathless and flustered.

At first, Chloe resisted, trying to push him away or turn her face. But Grant was persistent, his charm and

determination gradually wearing down her defenses. Eventually, Chloe got used to it.

She began to accept his kisses, even finding a strange sense of comfort in his unwavering attention. The hospital

room, once a place of sterile solitude, beca space filled with the intensity of their evolving relationship.

A few days passed quickly, and Chloe's health improved. For sreason, Michael and Liam never got a chance

to visit her.

After being discharged, she returned to the Martin Mansion, where Mia cto take care of her and chat about

family matters.

Mia said to Chloe, "Miss Davis, Mr. Grant Martin has been so good to you. He took care of you tirelessly while you

were in the hospital. | think he's lost weight."

Chloe couldn't help but smirk. 'Lost weight? | didn't notice any weight loss when he was kissing me."

"Mia, if you think he's lost weight, make him snourishing soup. Let him drink a few bowls." Chloe's casual

remark was taken seriously by Mia.

"Alright, I'll make sfor Mr. Grant Martin today." Mia nodded.

Mia replied, "Miss Davis, you don't know? Mr. Michael Martin went to the mountains to film a movie the day after

you were hospitalized."

"What? Filming? | didn't hear about any new projects." Chloe was puzzled.

On the day she was hospitalized, Michael had promised to take care of her. How did he end up filming in the

mountains?

"It was an old contract for a sequel or something. If Mr. Michael Martin didn't go, he would have to pay a hefty

penalty." Mia exaggerated a bit about Michael's situation.

"Oh... what about Liam? I've been back for a while and haven't seen him either." Chloe asked again.

Mia's words left Chloe feeling a bit confused.

It seemed like Michael and Liam were deliberately sent away by Grant.

Wasn't Grant being a bit too exclusive?

Talking about Liam, Mia got excited. "Miss Davis, Mr. Liam Martin's competition is today..."
