Chapter 957

Chloe was momentarily at a loss for words. Maddie was sprawled out on the sofa, looking like she didn't have a care in the world. Despite being decked out in high- end designer clothes, there was something weary and jaded in her beautiful features. Chloe didn't know Maddie well, but there was an undeniable complexity about her. After all, she had managed to stay close to Connor for years, fake her own death, and disappear without a trace. Even now, whenever Connor mentioned her, there was a lingering guilt and regret in his voice.

Maddie had even managed to turn Teddy, a notorious playboy from a wealthy family, into someone more grounded and introspective. There was definitely something magnetic about her.

Chloe had a gut feeling that Grant inviting her here wasn't just about making introductions. She turned to Grant and asked, "Grant, what's your real game plan here?"

Grant chuckled, a hint of sadness flitting across his face. "Have you stopped calling me friend now?" he teased.

Chloe eyed him cautiously. “I know you're not going to give up your revenge just because I ask. You've spent your whole life plotting, treating people like chess pieces. Someone like you doesn't deserve true affection, but I do pity you. Your life is all about anger and revenge, with no room for the brighter, warmer things. Isn't that a pretty sad way to live?"

Chloe was desperately trying to buy time.
