Our Anniversary, You Chose Her – I Chose Divorce novel Chapter 391

Chapter 391: Chapter 391: It’s Preston Vance

"T-Take him away first. I... I need to go home..." 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

Chloe Reed’s mind was a chaotic mess, and the sensations in her body grew more intense.

She braced herself against the wall and stumbled outside. Just then, the waitress returned. Seeing the strange color on Chloe Reed’s face, she quickly asked, "Wh-What’s wrong with you? Miss, please don’t scare me!"

Chloe Reed grabbed her arm. "Take me to a hotel."

’I can’t go home.’

’If I go home, Grandma will see me like this. She’ll definitely worry.’

The waitress was frantic. "Miss, what’s happening to you? I should take you to a hospital."

But Chloe Reed shook her head. "A nearby hotel will be fine."

"O-Okay..."

The waitress supported her as they left, with Daniel Hayes following close behind, dragging the man with him.

Once they got a room at the hotel, Chloe Reed went straight into the bathroom and turned on the cold water, dousing herself.

The icy water suppressed the effects of the intoxicating drug, and her consciousness cleared slightly.

Outside the door, the waitress was still asking with concern, "Miss, are you all right?"

"I’m fine," Chloe Reed replied.

The waitress sighed in relief, then added, "You really scared me just now. And... and that man outside is still holding onto another man. Who are they? They’re so scary."

Chloe Reed didn’t say anything. Only after the sensation had been completely washed away did she dry herself off and step out.

Her face was pale and bluish from the cold. The waitress handed her the new clothes she had bought. After putting them on, Chloe said, "You can go back now."

The waitress asked cautiously, "Miss, are you sure you don’t need to go to the hospital?"

Chloe Reed shook her head. "No need. You bought me clothes and burn cream, which is compensation enough. I won’t pursue this matter."

The waitress looked at her, her face full of gratitude. "Miss, you’re so kind. I’ll be on my way, then."

"AH! Stop hitting me! I’m telling the truth!" the man howled in pain, and soon he began to spit up blood. "You can check it! Mr. Vance just transferred money to me a few days ago. I’m not lying..."

’He’s on the verge of death, yet he’s sticking to his story. So... he really isn’t lying?’

’Preston Vance hired someone to kidnap me?’

’And use such a disgusting drug on me?’

Chloe Reed felt even colder now. She couldn’t understand it. Why would he do this?

They had gotten along just fine before, and he had never shown any hint of malice.

Besides, if he had wanted to harm her, he’d had plenty of opportunities before.

Chloe Reed was utterly baffled.

It was just like the repeated assassination attempts, or the way someone kept preventing her divorce.

’I can’t figure it out. I just can’t figure it out at all.’
