Chapter 133 Different Ideas

Michael's sudden change in attitude left Chloe feeling a bit overwhelmed.

Since she had joined the Martin family, each of the three Martin brothers had treated her differently.

Grant was the eldest and the most kind and gentle with her. He always showered her with a brotherly, almost fatherly, tenderness, which made Chloe feel deeply comforted. Every time he called her name, Chloe's heart would warm, as if a wave of warmth surged through her, making her feel the warmth of home.

Liam seemed to harbor the most hostility towards her, constantly calling her "ugly" and always looking for ways to mess with her.

Michael, on the other hand, had always been neutral-not too cold, but not particularly warm either. His enthusiasm today was a first, making Chloe felt uneasy.

"Mic, what's with the sudden enthusiasm?" Chloe asked Michael, full of suspicion. Michael cleared his throat and quickly replied, "Am I enthusiastic? I don't think so. Haven't I always been like this?

Chloe, don't overthink it. I just had some free time today and thought I'd take you out for a meal. After all, you do call me 'Mic,' and as a host in Sovereign City, I should show you some hospitality."

Michael's words were grandiose and pompous. As he glanced sideways at Chloe, he suddenly found that the large mole on her face didn't seem so repulsive anymore.

In fact, that large mole on Chloe's face possessed a unique charm.

Last night, she beat Michael up without discerning right from wrong. Given Michael's temper, he likely wouldn't let her off the hook today.

However, instead of confronting her, he not only refrained from holding a grudge but also invited her out for a meal. Could it be that he has some other ulterior motives?

Could he have poisoned the food to get back at her?

The thought made the snacks in her hand lose their appeal.

With a mix of anxiety and curiosity, Chloe followed Michael to an upscale villa on the outskirts of the city. The place was serene, and the parking lot was filled with expensive cars. The clientele were all VIPs.
