From Trash to Treasure: The Sinclair Family's Beloved Genius novel Chapter 374

Chapter 374: Chapter 463: With Mr. Shaw Around

However, she still refused Nathan Trenton’s kind offer.

For one, the Trenton Group’s legal team was based in Emberfall, so traveling back and forth would be a hassle.

For another, the Shaw Group’s legal team held a dominant position in Zenthia.

Nathan Trenton wasn’t surprised by Chloe Sinclair’s refusal.

He sent a voice message, his tone full of resignation. "Ah, I’d forgotten. Mr. Shaw’s legal team is basically undefeated. But if you run into any trouble, you know I’ll be there to help."

Chloe Sinclair scrolled through her messages for two hours. Seeing all the concerned texts from everyone warmed her heart.

’If only I’d seen things clearly sooner in my past life and moved on from the darkness, how much better would things have been?’

’Thankfully, I’ve been reborn. There’s still time for everything.’

Chloe Sinclair took a deep breath, put her phone away, and entered the system to begin studying.

Lately, she had been focusing on biology, and her learning progress was now almost maxed out.

Chloe Sinclair became so engrossed in the system that she forgot to eat and sleep. If the system hadn’t alerted her, she wouldn’t have known how much time had passed.

"Host, your older brother is at the door!"

The moment it finished speaking, Chloe Sinclair’s eyes snapped open.

A moment later, a firm knocking sound, THUMP THUMP, came from the door. Without even taking the time to put on slippers, Chloe Sinclair’s bare feet landed on the soft carpet as she ran to the door.

"Big Brother, is something wrong?"

Chloe Sinclair’s voice was gentle, like that of a harmless little cat.

Ethan Sinclair looked down and immediately noticed that Chloe Sinclair’s fair, delicate feet were bare.

Frowning, he took off his own slippers and said seriously, "Chloe, put these on."

Startled, Chloe Sinclair looked down, just then realizing she had been in such a hurry that she’d forgotten her slippers. A wave of embarrassment washed over her. Her toes curled into the carpet, the tips of her feet flushing red in an utterly adorable way.

Chloe Sinclair felt a pang of guilt and scratched the back of her head. "I’m sorry about last time. I promise I won’t make you worry again."

With Chloe Sinclair’s repeated assurances, Ethan Sinclair naturally couldn’t press the issue any further.

"Alright, let’s go down for dinner. Want to go for a run afterward?"

The brother and sister had always had a habit of going for morning runs, but they hadn’t gone together once since Chloe Sinclair came back.

Chloe Sinclair thought for a moment, then agreed.

After they ate, the two of them ran twenty laps around the track in their residential community.

Chloe Sinclair was in good form, so she added another ten laps.

Ethan Sinclair sat in the stands, twisting open a water bottle for his little sister. As she approached, he said, "It’s been a few months, and you’re running a lot faster than you used to."

She had outpaced him by a full lap.
