Chapter 1689

Chloe’s frankness left Barbara momentarily speechless, and the driver wore a look of sheer panic, his eyes pleading for help.

Seeing Chloe about to leave, Barbara stepped forward hastily. “But there’s no need to involve grandma in this. Do you know how busy she is every day? If she has to deal with every little thing, don’t you think it’s too much?”

Barbara’s relaxed expression tightened instantly. “I just think the driver wouldn’t do something so stupid.”

Chloe chuckled and slid her hands into the pockets of her down jacket, her gaze on Barbara light and smiley
