Chapter 296

After dinner, Chloe was about to help clear the table when a servant rushed over, telling her that her phone had been ringing non–stop. He was worried that it might run out of juice, so he came over to remind her.

In fact, since last night, Lance had been blowing up her phone with calls and texts. Chloe had been ignoring him, but she hadn’t expected him to be so persistent.
