Chapter 1239

Rose arched an eyebrow, not caring. “What’s the big deal? Grannie bought this specially for me!”

As she spoke, Chloe lowered her head and popped a piece of orange into her mouth. Rose’s munching stopped mid–bite, her gaze fixed on Chloe.

*Overeating anything isn’t good, you need to maintain a balanced diet.” Chloe said this, then popped half of the orange into her mouth.

Rose rolled her eyes at Elizabeth, brow slightly raised. “Is the orange sweet?”

Chloe glanced at the orange in her hand, indifferent. “It’s alright.”

Rose sat up, her gaze switching from Chloe’s face to Elizabeth’s. She said lightly, “Guess your plan flopped.”

Elizabeth frowned, watching as Chloe devoured the orange. Chloe’s chewing slowed down as she caught Rose’s words and Elizabeth’s expression. She looked at the orange in her hand, a gift from her grandma…

“Hah…” Chloe chuckled lightly, finishing the last piece of the orange.

“What’s so funny?” Elizabeth was a bit upset. Her failed plan had become a laughingstock. How embarrassing!

Chloe bent over to pick up another orange, giving it a squeeze, “This trick of Granny Alyssa’s has been overused. She even pulled it on Damon’s assistant, Nate.” The implication was that Chloe had been on the receiving end of this trick before.

Elizabeth was immensely disappointed. So, Chloe had known from the start that she was being pranked, thus her calm demeanor was all an act. “Not fun at all.” Chloe laughed again, gripping the orange in her hand before heading upstairs to rest.

“Ugh, so mean! You knew we were pranking you, and you still took my orange!” Rose grumbled to Chloe’s retreating back, reaching for another orange, but remembering Chloe’s words, she held back.

Upstairs, after finishing the orange and getting ready for bed, Miles‘ video call came through. Chloe rolled her eyes slightly, then picked up the call. Her hair, which was typically tied up, was now a little untidy because she was dressed in comfy home clothing. Her face was naked and she appeared tired.
