Chapter 12 He is the Most Suitable

Just when Chloe thought Grant would brush off the situation, he went ahead and slapped Liam.

Liam grabbed his cheek in stunned disbelief, while the guests gasped in shock. Chloe was confused; wasn't Grant supposed to defend Liam and apologize quickly? "Grant."

"Liam, beat it for now! I'll deal with you when I get back tonight," Grant commanded, his face stern.

Liam, scared of Grant's temper, kept quiet after the slap and left with his crew.

After Liam left, Grant turned to Chloe and said, "Don't worry, I'll get to the bottom of this tonight."

Grant's attitude was pretty good, and since he had just saved her, Chloe started to warm up to him a bit.

She nodded and said, "Okay."
