CHAPTER 259: CHAPTER 259: CHLOE, STAY BY MY SIDE 9

"It’s just that it feels too fast," Chloe Grant explained.

But in her heart, it still felt unsettling, like dark clouds gathering. The frustrating thing was, she had no idea why she suddenly became so downcast.

"What’s too fast? Once we set it, getting engaged and married happens quickly," Sophia Fraser said directly, looking at Chloe Grant. "I noticed, it seems like you really don’t like me being with Grandpa Morgan?"

Her expression was suspicious, sizing up Chloe Grant.

Chloe Grant quickly denied, "I don’t..."

"Everywhere is your problem!" Sophia Fraser responded loudly, then looked back at Zoe Graham and Ava Woods who had stopped walking. She lowered her voice, "Before, when I asked you to get Grandpa Morgan out, you were reluctant. Now that I don’t need you, you have this attitude? Chloe Grant, are you afraid that after I marry into the Morgan family, Lady Morgan will favor me and you’ll lose favor? So, when hearing this, you act this way?"

When Sophia Fraser got angry, her words would be sharp. "I heard before that Elder Morgan only adored you because you said nice things when you were young, coupled with the fact that the Morgans always lacked a girl. But in the future, when I marry into the Taylor family, everything will change.

You’re worried about your own status, right?"

Though phrased as a question, Sophia Fraser made her conclusion with absolute certainty.

"Why do you think that?" Chloe Grant couldn’t understand.

She had never thought about losing favor.

"If you didn’t think that way, why would I possibly think that?" Sophia Fraser retorted.

"What’s going on with you two now?"

Walking ahead, Zoe Graham noticed something was off and hurried over, separating the two of them.

Together with Ava Woods holding one, heading towards the destination, "You guys have been weird this year, always arguing."

Just at the start of the school, there was a cold war, and now it’s starting again.

"I used to think you were just petty, but now I truly feel you’re not only petty, but also malicious!" Sophia Fraser was genuinely angry, so she snapped back directly.

"I’m petty and malicious?" Chloe Grant was shocked.

She hadn’t done anything, yet she was being labeled like this—isn’t it too much?

"If not, then what?" Sophia Fraser retorted, "Look at what you’ve done! From the start of the school until now, what have I not given you guys? Every time we eat, I let you guys order expensive things. Have I ever said anything?

My bags, my shoes, which ones that you guys liked that I didn’t give you? I never cared about these with you, because I felt it was unnecessary. But look at what you did?

I only hoped you’d help with a little favor, Chloe Grant, what did you do?

And just now, what was your attitude? You can take out a mirror and look at yourself now!"

"I think what you’re saying is a bit too much... um!" Chloe Grant tried to argue, but Zoe Graham directly covered her mouth.

Chloe Grant was 1.6 meters tall, while Zoe Graham was 1.7 meters, a full ten centimeters taller! Zoe Graham covering Chloe Grant’s mouth was without any effort.

"Alright, alright, there’s nothing worth arguing about, we still have to eat together."

Zoe Graham said as she led Chloe Grant outside.

Chloe Grant struggled several times but couldn’t break free.

Meanwhile, Ava Woods was still coaxing Sophia Fraser to leave.

When the four of them moved to the entrance, James Heady, who had been waiting at the door, quickly came up, "Chloe, your uncle sent me to pick you up."
