Chapter 51 He Was Almost Raped

After saying that, Chloe pulled out her phone, ready to call Grant.

Philip stopped her. "Chloe, it's really important to get the principal's help. It's probably better if you go talk to him in person since we don't have any classes right now. What do you think?" Philip's words made Chloe think.

Yeah, Philip had a point. Grant was super busy. If she called, he might just brush her off and not help at all. Going in person would definitely be more sincere.

Chloe thought for a moment and nodded. "You're right. I'll head to his office now."

"Cool, I'll get you a cab," Philip said, pulling out his phone to book a ride for Chloe.

While waiting for the car, Chloe felt it was a bit rude to ask Grant for help without bringing something. As it happened, a new porridge shop had just opened at the entrance of Quest University, and their oatmeal porridge was amazing. Chloe grabbed a bowl and headed to the Martin Group, the biggest company in Sovereign City, standing tall in the heart of downtown. Stepping out of the car, she walked straight into the grand lobby.

When she walked in with the oatmeal porridge, people coming and going didn't really notice her. It wasn't until she asked the receptionist which floor Grant's office was on that she caught everyone's attention.
