Our Anniversary, You Chose Her – I Chose Divorce Chapter 220: Take Her to Get Her Head Checked

She took it out and saw it was a call from Miles Hawthorne.

"Hello?"

Chloe Reed walked out onto the balcony and answered the call.

Miles Hawthorne’s cheerful voice ca through the phone. "The court will be contacting you for diation in a few days, so be prepared."

Having co this far, she was already more than prepared.

She tightened her grip on her phone and asked, "Is there any chance we could lose?"

"That’s very possible," Miles Hawthorne sighed. "But you can’t keep thinking about failure. What if we win?"

Chloe Reed, however, felt a deep sense of unease. But with no other options at the mont, she said, "Okay, I understand. Thank you."

"Don’t ntion it," Miles Hawthorne chuckled. "Just rember to pay a generous legal fee."

Chloe Reed laughed. "Okay."

After hanging up, she turned to the real estate agent and said, "I’ll take this one."

The apartnt was already furnished and move-in ready.

She had arrived in the afternoon, so the paperwork would have to wait until tomorrow. She arranged a ti and place to et the agent then.

Preston Vance had been watching from the side. He waited until she finished with the agent before asking, "Do you have plans for later?"

"Yeah, I took ti off work to co here." Chloe Reed nodded. "I have to get back."

Preston Vance’s lips twisted in a helpless smile. "And here I was hoping you’d be free. I was going to suggest dinner. That restaurant is really good, I’ve been wanting to go back."

Chloe Reed said, "Then you should go. You could invite one of your friends."

"To be honest," Preston Vance said, pushing his glasses up his nose, "you’re the first friend I’ve made since coming back."

Chloe Reed was even more surprised. "What about before you went abroad?"

"We lost touch a long ti ago." Preston Vance shrugged, then added, "Don’t I sound pathetic?"

But Chloe Reed said, "That’s just because you haven’t tried to make any. If you wanted to, I’m sure people would be happy to be your friend."

Preston Vance just smiled and shook his head. "It’s probably hard to find soone who wants to be friends with no strings attached these days, isn’t it?"

He gazed at her with a smile. "That’s why I find you so special."

Being complinted so suddenly made Chloe Reed a little flustered, and a strange feeling fluttered through her.

"Brother?"

Just then, Ivy Vance’s voice cut in. She walked over, her brow furrowed as she shot a look at Chloe Reed. "Why are you two together?" she demanded.

Preston Vance said, "Chloe is my friend. Did you need for sothing?"

’Chloe?’

’How intimate!’

Ivy Vance held out a few docunts to him. "You need to look over these."

After a pause, she added, "Brother, I’d advise you to be more discerning when you make friends. It would be a sha to get dragged into trouble."

Chloe Reed’s brow twitched as she glanced at her. "Do you have a problem with ?"

Ivy Vance crossed her arms and scoffed. "Are you paranoid, Miss Reed?"

Chloe Reed shook her head. "I’m not, but you’re the one who doesn’t seem normal."

Then, she turned to Preston Vance and said, "You seem perfectly normal. But your sister... you should take her to get her head examined when you have a mont."

Preston Vance shot her a surprised look, not expecting her to have such a sharp tongue.

Ivy Vance’s face instantly darkened. "Chloe Reed, are you insulting ?!"

Chloe Reed’s tone was perfectly level. "You’re the one who started this. I don’t even know you, yet you walk over here and insult . Is that what you call polite?"

"You!"

Ivy Vance was so furious she was speechless. The very sight of Chloe Reed was infuriating!

’What in the world does Walker Grant see in her?!’

’It’s so infuriating!’
