Chapter 157 Thanks to Him

He put down the newspaper and stood up, walking over to Chloe.

His tall frame exuded a powerful presence, making Chloe unable to lift her head.

She felt a bit nervous, she explained., "Grant, school's almost out for break, and they said there's going to be an assessment. I'm just worried that I might not do well, so I've been using the time after school to study at the library. Did I do something wrong?"

Chloe lowered her stance, looking anxiously at Grant. Despite her usual bravery, she always felt a sense of timidity when facing him, like a child before a strict guardian.

She knew that Grant was more easily swayed by a gentle attitude and approach rather than by forceful confrontation. If she chose to confront Grant aggressively, she would surely face unfavorable consequences.

Seeing Chloe being so obedient, Grant's heart softened.

He instructed her, "From now on, if you go anywhere after school, send me a message. Even though Sovereign City is pretty safe, you still need to be careful. You don't have to go to the library; if you need any books, I'll have someone buy them for you."

Grant was quite the big spender.

To avoid angering him, Chloe quickly nodded obediently. Grant was about to lecture her a bit more when his phone rang. He picked it up and headed towards his study.

Chloe let out a long sigh of relief and immediately returned to her room. She silently thanked her lucky stars for narrowly escaping a difficult situation.

A few days later, Quest University went on break. According to their plan, Chloe, Zara, and Rena set off in an RV to find Michael.

Michael was filming some romance drama in a very southern, mountainous area.

It was said that the place was surrounded by beautiful scenery, perfect for a short stay to cultivate one's mind.
