Chapter 62 He Was Really Thirsty

Hearing Michael's words, Liam shot back, "Michael, call me crazy all you want, but don't you dare insult my idol. She's a stunning woman with brains, beauty, and talent, way better than any of the women around you! Seriously, watch your mouth from now on."

Chloe couldn't help but laugh at Liam's reaction. She could already picture the day he'd find out that the idol he was so obsessed with was actually her, the so-called ugly girl. He'd probably want to crawl into a hole and die. Getting back at Liam for all the times he bullied her? That would be sweet.

To stop the brothers from bickering, Grant knocked on the table and said, "Alright, enough. It's time to eat. Chloe made all the dishes today, and they're fantastic. If you keep arguing, you won't get to eat." When Liam heard that Chloe had cooked, he perked up. He started eating, half-skeptical, but once the delicious food hit his taste buds, he was blown away.

He gave Chloe a thumbs up. "Ugly girl, this food is amazing. Seriously, one word: amazing."

Chloe rolled her eyes and pouted, and the group dug in.

Grant had a big appetite tonight. He ate a bunch of dishes and downed two bowls of porridge. Maybe he overdid it because he couldn't fall asleep that night. Around ten-thirty, he grabbed his clothes and headed downstairs to the heated pool in the backyard for some exercise.

Since most people were asleep, Grant didn't bother turning on the lights. He went to the backyard, changed into his swimsuit, and was about to jump in when he noticed a woman with a killer figure standing by the pool.

just as she closed the door, Liam happened to return to his room. Chloe's flustered figure immediately made him suspicious. Not long after, Grant also arrived. Liam's doubts deepened. He looked at Grant, who was also wrapped in a towel, and asked, "Grant, where'd
