Chapter 346: Chapter 346: I Don’t Want to See News About Her

’They haven’t even finalized the divorce, and she’s already looking for her next guy?’

Heh!

Walker Grant immediately called his bodyguards. "Don’t report her movements to me anymore. If you do, I’ll dock your pay!"

With that, he hung up, his face cold.

The two bodyguards: "..."

They stared at each other in utter confusion.

’What was that about?’

’Didn’t Mr. Grant order us to report his wife’s whereabouts to him at all times?’

’Why the sudden change of heart?’

One bodyguard asked, "Should we... ask Assistant Finch?"

The other nodded. "Good idea."

So, they contacted Dylan Finch.

Dylan Finch sighed and said, "Keep following her, and keep taking pictures. Don’t listen to Mr. Grant. He doesn’t mean what he says."

The two bodyguards hesitated. "But what about our pay...?"

Dylan said, "I’ll talk to accounting."

The two bodyguards breathed a sigh of relief and stopped worrying about it.

...

「Maplewood Gardens.」

Chloe Reed got out of the car, her cheeks flushed red. The alcohol had fully kicked in during the ride, and now her head was spinning.

"Mr. Vance, I... I have to go home now." Chloe Reed waved at him. "Goodbye, and thank you for dinner."

Seeing her swaying slightly, Preston Vance hurried forward to steady her. "Let me walk you home. I’m worried about you in this state."

"I’m fine!"

But Chloe Reed waved her hand dismissively. "I can manage on my own."

But Preston Vance insisted, "I’ll just see you to the elevator. Please don’t refuse."

His grip was gentle but firm as he guided her toward the apartment building.

"Chloe!"

Just then, Nathaniel Monroe’s voice called out.

He hurried over, shoved Preston Vance aside, and supported Chloe Reed. "Chloe, why have you had so much to drink? Come on, I’ll take you home."

Chloe Reed squinted, asking sluggishly, "Who are you?"

The corner of Nathaniel Monroe’s mouth twitched. "Chloe, it’s me, Nathaniel Monroe! We’ve known each other for years. How could you not remember me?"

"Oh... his lackey."

Chloe pointed at him, identifying him.

Nathaniel: "...Right, right, I’m Walker’s lackey. Come on, I’ll take you home. It’s not safe for you to be out here alone like this."

Then, he turned to Preston Vance. "We won’t trouble you, Mr. Vance. I’ll take my sister-in-law home."

The gentle expression on Preston Vance’s face cooled. He looked at Chloe and asked, "Chloe, do you know him?"

"Hey, did you not hear what I just said? She’s my sister-in-law! We’ve known each other way longer than you have, Mr. Vance, so stop meddling!" Nathaniel was getting annoyed. He could tell this Preston Vance was trying to steal another man’s wife!

’Not on my watch!’

’They aren’t even divorced yet. He had to help Walker defend his territory!’

Preston Vance’s eyes glinted behind his glasses. He said, "I don’t know your history. I can’t just take your word for it. What if you’re the one with ill intentions toward her?" 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

’Huh?’

’You’re the one with ill intentions toward her!’

Nathaniel was getting impatient.

Just then, Chloe Reed spoke up. "Home... Nathaniel Monroe, take me home!"

Hearing this, Nathaniel was thrilled. He looked Preston Vance up and down, then said, "Did you hear that, Mr. Vance? Now get out of the way. My sister-in-law drank too much and isn’t feeling well. She needs to go home and rest."

Preston Vance gave Chloe Reed a complicated look, then slowly took a step back.
