Chapter 52 Bullying the Martin Family

Chloe halted in the middle of the sentence, unwilling to repeat herself again. "I just brought you some porridge. No need to get all worked up. If you don't want it, I'll just leave." After saying that, Chloe quickly backed away from Grant. She grabbed the oatmeal porridge she had bought and was ready to make a run for it.

But before she could, Grant reached out and grabbed her collar again, pulling her back. "You brought me porridge?"

Hearing that, Grant's anger started to fade. Chloe, trying to be helpful, handed him the simple takeout box.

Grant frowned. The Martin Family would have sent porridge in a fancy container, still warm. Chloe's plain paper box with a weird thick straw looked pretty unappetizing.

Chloe seemed to pick up on Grant's thoughts. She quickly unwrapped the thick straw and stuck it into the oatmeal porridge box, handing it to him. "Grantie, it's still warm. Want to drink it now? The doctor said your stomach needs to be taken care of. Drinking more porridge will help you recover faster than... Eh, fagging yourself."

Chloe's words had a double meaning. By "fagging," she was hinting at Sophia's earlier shameless behavior.

Grant thought he'd turn his nose up at the plain porridge, but he drank it without hesitation. Despite its look, it tasted good and warmed his stomach. He felt a lot better afterward.

He sat down in his office chair and asked Chloe, "Why aren't you in school? What are you doing at my company right now?"
