Chapter 163: Matters Avery watched Chloe’s expression. “Is there anything you want to tell me?” Chloe sighed.” Nothing. But I just think you should sit and think about it deeply. This isn’t something you can just decide on without proper thoughts.” Avery shrugged slightly.” What difference does it make anyways? We all know who Grey is and how rich Chris is.” 

Chloe moved closer as if she was scared of other people hearing what she was about to say.” Have you ever thought of the possibility of Grey being rich?” 

Avery stared at her, confused.” What do you mean?”

“Yes, but you should think about what Grey is always doing so late in the night that he always comes home at odd hours. Maybe, that isn’t such a babble.” Avery rolled her eyes.” Will you please stop?” “I won’t, Avery until you see sense in all this. Why do you think I do pick up on Grey or you if it wasn’t for the stupid son-in-law you brought home,” he insinuated.

I had to make you feel threatened at work so that you would feel the need to fall in love,” he explained and shook his head briefly.” You sincerely didn’t think I meant everything i said back then?” Avery found
