Rural Belle & Three Heirs by Harper Hall

Chapter 162 Whose Idea Is It?

Faced with Chloe's request, Grant, who had always had a soft spot for her, couldn't possibly refuse.

His mind seemed to shut down instantly, going completely blank. In his eyes, Chloe appeared both innocent and

irresistible at that moment, her allure making his thoughts cto a halt. Without thinking, Grant responded

with a voice that was stiff yet tinged with a hint of panic, "Alright..."

As soon as the words left his mouth, Chloe immediately leaned in, wrapping her arms around his neck. Grant,

caught off guard by Chloe's boldness, was left flustered and at a loss.

As soon as the words left his mouth, Chloe immediately leaned in, without a second thought, wrapping her arms

around his neck from behind. Her actions were so direct and confident, catching Grant completely off guard,

leaving him utterly flustered and at a loss for what to do.

She suddenly kissed Grant hard on the lips, and he gasped in shock.

This wasn't just a kiss; Chloe was biting him...

Grant knew Chloe was usually well-behaved, but how could she do something so wild, like biting him?

Half an hour later, Grant's car pulled up in front of a high-end hotel in Oceancrest City. As he got out, he held a

piece of paper to his lips.

His face looked grim, and Michael and Liam approached him.

"Grant, what happened? Why are you holding your mouth? Are you hurt?" Liam asked, concerned.

Grant glanced at Chloe, who was getting out of the car, and said, "It's nothing. Toby's driving was a bit rough,

and | hit my mouth..."

Toby, Grant's driver, heard this and helplessly looked away.

He was just a driver, but in the end, he had to take the blfor everything.

Seeing Grant in this state, Chloe felt a sense of satisfaction. Grant had messed with her, so biting him was fair

payback.

She wondered if he'd think twice before trying to mess with her again.

Soon, Chloe followed the three brothers to a presidential suite in the hotel. As they opened the door, they saw

Zara and Rena standing in the middle of the room, looking like they were in trouble, heads bowed.

Michael and Liam's faces were dark with anger. Hearing the door open, Zara and Rena instinctively looked

towards Chloe.

Chloe's heart raced, and she felt a sudden wave of nervousness. She was sure they had exposed.

She turned her head, intending to escape, but Grant had anticipated it. He reached out and grabbed Chloe by

the back of her neck, lifting her into the room like a small chick. The door slammed shut.

Michael started scolding Rena. "Rena, how dare you bring Chloe here without telling me? Do you know what

could have happened if something went wrong?

"f anything had happened to her, do you think my grandfather would have letoff the hook? Rena, do you

want to lose your job?"

Rena kept her head down, not daring to say a word in the face of Michael's anger. After Michael finished, it was

Liam's turn.

Pointing at Zara, he began to scold her. "Zara, you trickedinto thinking you were my goddess, and then you

brought Chloe to Oceancrest City without a word. If | hadn't seen your photos on Michael's News Feed, I'd still be

searching for you in Sovereign City.

You've got snerve. Do you know what happens when you cross me?"

Liam's voice boomed, and as the third heir of the Martin Family, Zara felt like a scolded schoolgirl, not daring to

speak.

Zara and Rena remained silent, afraid that saying anything would only make things

worse.

Then Grant turned his attention to Chloe. "Chloe, you've gotten bolder, haven't you? How dare you run away

from home! Do you think just because the Davis Family and the Martin Family have an engagement, | can't do

anything to you? Tell me, whose idea was it to sneak out?"

Faced with Grant's anger, the three girls looked at each other, none of them speaking. They honestly couldn't

remember whose idea it was.

"Fine, not talking? Do you think | can't deal with you if you stay silent? Liam, inform our business friends that the

Gibson family's business is no longer welcin Sovereign City. Let's see them shut down for a year."

Grant's ruthless tactic was aimed at forcing the truth out of them.

The head of the Gibson family business was Zara's uncle, and she was currently living with them.

And Rena's parents worked for the Gibson Group, and if the business shut down, they'd lose their jobs.

Chloe had been supporting the Gibson Group, and a year-long shutdown would affect her too.

Grant's move was a masterstroke, hitting them where it hurt.

Rena's brave stance made Michael chuckle. He hadn't thought much of her before, but today, she seemed kind

of cute.

It was a naive and fearless kind of cute.

Seeing Rena step up, Zara didn't want to back down either. For the sake of the Gibson family's business, she was

ready to take the fall.

Michael and Liam were puzzled to hear that Grant bullied Chloe. When did that happen? They had no idea.

Michael noted the word "always," implying it wasn't a one-tthing.

Was there smisunderstandings here?

They both looked at Grant, who felt a bit guilty and embarrassed.

He still had his hand on Chloe's neck, making the situation even harder to explain.
