Our Anniversary, You Chose Her – I Chose Divorce Chapter 45: You Want a Child?

Her vision was a blur. A warm touch swept across the corner of her eye, wiping away a tear.

A sensual aroma filled the hospital room, where ragged breaths intertwined.

Walker Grant picked her up and placed her on the hospital bed. He then turned and went into the bathroom, returning with a wet towel in his hand.

He took hold of her leg.

"Can you stop going after Iris now?" Chloe Reed asked, her voice hoarse.

Walker Grant’s expression faltered. He jerked his head up to look at her, his dark, deep eyes churning with emotion. He gritted his teeth. "You’ve already paid such a high price. How could I not let them go now?"

Chloe Reed closed her eyes. Sweat beaded on her temples, the corners of her eyes were bright red, and her breathing was still ragged.

The passionate exertion brought a peachy flush to her face, lending her an alluring vitality.

Walker Grant cleaned her up, then got into bed and pulled her into his arms.

Just as he had on so many nights before, he held her afterward, embracing her as if trying to rge her into his very flesh and bone.

Chloe Reed, however, said, "What’s the point? It’s not like I can get pregnant."

Walker Grant’s arms tightened around her. "You want a child?"

Chloe Reed suppressed the turmoil inside her and ignored him.

She was mocking him, but he pretended not to notice.

She just felt weary, a deep exhaustion accompanied by a sharp, piercing pain, as if her heart was being stabbed by a thousand needles.

After regaining a bit of strength, she shoved him away and got out of bed to leave.

Walker Grant frowned. "Where are you going?"

Chloe Reed straightened her clothes, her expression once again cold and indifferent. "Business is concluded. Why would I stay here? I wouldn’t want to get in the way of you and Sunny Reed building your relationship."

"Chloe!"

Walker Grant couldn’t stand her sarcastic tone. "I’ve told you countless tis, I have no improper feelings for my sister-in-law."

"Well, you can now." Chloe Reed turned and walked toward the door. "I won’t stop you."

She opened the door and walked straight out.

The mont she stepped out of the hospital, a figure rushed up and threw their arms around her. "Sob... Chloe, how are you? Did Walker Grant hit you? Sob... I was worried sick!"

Chloe Reed patted her on the back. "No, he didn’t hit . Is everything with your family settled? I’m so sorry, this is all my fault."

Iris’s eyes were as red as a rabbit’s from crying. "How is this your fault? It was obviously that bitch trying to stir up trouble! She did it on purpose!"

Chloe Reed lowered her gaze. "Well, Walker Grant protects her. From now on, let’s just steer clear of her when we see her."

’The one who is favored is always fearless.’

’Before, that was .’

’Now, it’s Sunny Reed.’

Iris gripped her hand. "Chloe, what are we going to do now? Your job opportunity was snatched away."

"I’ll just find another one," Chloe Reed said with a small smile. "There’s no hurdle I can’t overco."

Iris nodded. "Right. We’re in this together. Co on, let’s get sothing to eat first. You look awful, I’m worried you’re going to faint."

Then she asked, "By the way, you were in there for so long. What did you two talk about? Are you sure he didn’t hit you?"

A flash of sha and pain crossed Chloe Reed’s eyes as she rembered what had happened in the hospital room. She pushed down her feelings and said, "I’m craving so hot pot."

"You got it!"

"..."

A small head peeked into the hospital room. Seeing no one else was inside, Noah Grant ca in. "Uncle."

Walker Grant’s expression was dark. He whipped his head around, his cold look startling the child.
