Chapter 176: Chapter 176: Walker Grant, Chloe Reed’s Husband

Judith Pierce’s brow furrowed. ’What on earth is that brat up to?’

Watching from the side, Selene Adler flinched. "Auntie," she said, "I don’t want to do this anymore. I’m a little scared..."

Judith Pierce looked up at her. "Didn’t you say you liked Walker? Giving up so soon?"

Selene Adler bit her lip. "I’m just really scared, Auntie. I think I’ll go abroad for a few days. I’ll give you an answer when I get back."

With that, she turned and left.

Judith Pierce’s brow furrowed. ’What a useless girl.’ 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

...

The night was dense, the city’s lights just beginning to twinkle. A light, elegant violin melody floated through the restaurant. Each table was adorned with a single lamp; everywhere else was lost in shadow.

It was a very romantic restaurant.

Chloe Reed had been here with Walker Grant before.

That time, the power had gone out. While everyone else was leaving, they had kissed in the darkness.

"Miss Reed, would you like to order anything else?"

The voice of Preston Vance came from across the table.

Pulled from her thoughts, Chloe Reed smiled. "This is enough."

Preston Vance nodded and dismissed the waiter.

He gazed at her, his eyes full of earnest warmth. "I know I’ve said it many times, but I have to say it again. Thank you, truly, for tonight."

Chloe Reed asked, "What were you doing there all by yourself?"

Preston Vance sighed wearily. "I just wanted a moment of peace, a chance to breathe. I never expected to have an attack right then."

Chloe Reed nodded in understanding. "Did this not happen while you were abroad?"
