Chapter 16 I Don't Regret It

When Grant said he wanted to take Chloe to school himself, she thought she must have heard wrong. Was he nuts? She came to school for freedom, to do her own thing, and to meet guys outside the Martin Family. If Grant was her daily chauffeur, how was she supposed to make any friends? No way, she had to shut this down.

With a face only a mother could love, Chloe approached Grant and tried to talk him out of it. "Grant, you're swamped with work; no need to waste time on me. Liam took the car, so I'll hop on the farm truck. I'm not exactly a beauty queen, so no need for the daily drama. I'll get to school on my own, okay?"

Grant, buried in his work, looked up from his computer and stared at Chloe. His gut told him there was more to her reluctance about him taking her to school than met the eye.

He was curious to see what she was up to.

Grant shut his laptop, glanced at Chloe, and said, "I don't care about your looks. Eat your breakfast and get ready to go."

Chloe was at a loss for words.

With no other option, she slowly finished her breakfast and reluctantly got into Grant's car.

Soon, they were on their way to Quest University. Chloe closed her eyes, trying to fake being super sleepy.
