Rural Belle & Three Heirs

When Liam asked about her situation, Chloe didn't hold back. "Yeah, I ran into some trouble. So what? You here to gloat?" Chloe's tone was sharp, still bitter from their last argument.

Based on her understanding of Liam, Chloe knew their relationship wasn't close enough for him to offer help proactively.

However, she was also curious to know what terms Liam might propose. She asked, "If needed, how would you help? And if not needed, what would you say?"

Liam glanced at Chloe, a hint of admiration in his eyes. He couldn't help but acknowledge that she was a girl from an affluent family, understanding that relationships between people were ultimately just transactions.

"If you need help, I'll get someone to look into it for you. But in return, you gotta teach me your racing skills." Liam said. "And if you don't need help, I'll just pretend I was never here. You deal with it on your own, and I won't mention it again."

Liam had long been handling discreet matters for Grant, leveraging his extensive network within the Martin Group. Investigating this issue wouldn't be difficult for him; it would just require some effort.

Chloe, unable to find evidence to prove her innocence on her own, realized that enlisting Liam's help could make a significant difference. Given Liam's familiarity with the workings of power and access to information, his involvement was bound to be a great asset.

After a moment of contemplation, Chloe decided to hand this problem over to Liam. She smiled and snapped her fingers to catch his attention.

"Deal," Chloe said, her tone brimming with confidence and anticipation. "I'll give you three days. If you can uncover the truth about this matter, I'll teach you my racing techniques. How does that sound?"

Liam's eyes lit up. Any biker would jump at the chance to learn some killer racing techniques.

If he mastered the racing techniques, he would be able to brag about it on his News Feed for the rest of his life.

Eager to learn Chloe's racing techniques as soon as possible, Liam quickly responded, "It won't take three days, just one day is enough. Tomorrow afternoon, after school, head straight to Grant's office. By then, you'll be in for a show."

With that, Liam grabbed his helmet and headed downstairs. Soon, Chloe heard the roar of his motorcycle outside the Martin Family villa.

Meanwhile, Grant, just leaving his office, was intercepted by Giselle. "Grantie, you haven't had dinner yet, right? How about we call Isidora and grab a bite together?"

Grant looked exhausted, he glanced at Giselle and shook his head, "Giselle, it's been a long day. I'm beat. I just want to go home."

Giselle saw right through him and teased, "Want to go home early? Let me guess, you want to see that 'ugly girl,' right?"

Grant sighed, "Giselle, that's my business. After work, I can spend time with whoever I want. And stop calling her 'ugly girl.' Her name is Chloe."

Grant's defense of Chloe made Giselle frown in annoyance. "Grantie, I just don't get why you're interested in a woman who looks like that. Is it because of the marriage agreement between the Martin Family and her family?"

"Look at that mole on her face. It's so ugly, it makes me lose my appetite. How can you look at her every day without feeling disgusted?"

"As your aunt, I can't understand how she has bewitched you. You have so many beautiful girls around you, yet you choose her."

Giselle's words made Grant furious. He was raised to respect his aunt, but there were limits to his patience.

He looked at Giselle sternly and reminded her, "Giselle, my mom brought you into the Martin group to work, not to meddle in my personal life."

"Who I marry or whom I date is not only my freedom but also a matter for our Martin Family. Since my grandfather made this engagement with the Davis Family, it's only natural that the descendants of our Martin Family should honor it. Surely, you wouldn't want my grandfather to hear about you trying to incite me to defy him, right?"

Grant was sharp with his words. He first established Giselle's role in the Martin group. Even though she was his aunt, in the company, she was just an employee. The boss's personal matters were none of her concern.

Moreover, she was just an aunt. With Louis in charge, did she really think she could influence the Martin Family's marriage decisions?

Giselle was clearly overstepping her bounds.

Seeing Grant's change in demeanor, Giselle felt embarrassed.

She scolded Grant, "Grantie, I'm your aunt. How can you talk to me like this? I just wanted to introduce you to some better girls. How can you say that to me? And using your grandfather against me?"

Giselle was furious, trying to guilt-trip Grant.

But Grant wasn't having it. Giselle, I'm just reminding you that I'm an adult. I can handle my own affairs."

Before she could respond, Grant continued, "When you insisted on divorcing your abusive husband, didn't my mom support you and not force you to stay?"noveldrama

Giselle's face flushed instantly, as if he had touched the rawest wound in her heart.

"Alright, I'm tired. I'm going to rest now." Grant dismissed her words, turning and leaving without hesitation.

Giselle watched his figure recede, fury and humiliation intermingling on her face, alternating between red and white, her hands trembling slightly with anger. She had always maintained a flawless façade, with the only blemish being that unbearable marriage. She had thought was long buried deep in her memory, never to be brought up again.

But Grant, to defend Chloe, brought it up again.

Didn't he realize that mentioning it was like stabbing her in the heart?

Giselle almost lost her balance, but Isidora arrived just in time to support her and asked with concern. "Giselle, are you okay? Is your heart acting up again? How do you feel? Should I take you to the hospital?"

Last time, Giselle had a heart attack, and Isidora happened to be there to take her to the hospital. This time, Isidora's timely appearance made Giselle feel they were destined to meet.

Soon, an ambulance arrived, and Giselle was taken to the hospital. After a series of checks, her condition stabilized.

Isidora, meanwhile, continued to stir up trouble...
