Our Anniversary, You Chose Her – I Chose Divorce

”This...”

A hint of hesitation appeared on Autumn Linton’s face.

”What’s wrong?”

Walker Grant arched a dashing eyebrow. ”Sister-in-law is only the Reed family’s adopted daughter. If she can get shares in the Reed Group, why can’t Chloe? Is it really like Chloe said? Are you two playing favorites?”

Being called out by their son-in-law like this, they couldn’t help but feel a little embarrassed.

Charles Reed gave Walker Grant a dark look and said, ”If we suddenly take out so many shares, it will be hard to justify it to the board of directors.”

”That’s easy to solve,” Walker Grant said lightly. ”To help them hone their skills, you can set up two companies for them to manage. That’ll give them some real-world experience, and no one will dare to say a thing.”

Whether Chloe Reed and Sunny Reed actually know how to run a company doesn’t matter. They can just hire a CEO to manage it.

Charles Reed fell completely silent.

Autumn Linton gave Walker Grant a complicated look before saying, ”That is indeed one way to do it.”

Charles Reed pondered for a moment before nodding. ”Alright.”

He looked at his secretary and asked, ”Did you get all of that?”

The secretary nodded. ”Yes, I’ve got it all down.”

Charles Reed said, ”Then go and take care of it.”

The secretary turned and left.

Sunny Reed stood to the side, a pit of unease forming in her stomach.

’Not only was my five percent stake cut down to three percent, but now Chloe Reed is getting Reed Group shares too—and even more than me!’

’What on earth is Walker Grant thinking?’

’Doesn’t he want to repay the favor he owes me?’

Sunny Reed suppressed her annoyance and looked at him. ”Walker, I never realized you were so protective of your sister. Even after finding out she lied, you didn’t waver. It’s just a shame she misunderstands you. What are we going to do about that?”

Walker Grant glanced at her, his narrow eyes betraying no emotion. ”I’ll handle things between her and me. None of you need to get involved.”

Then he added, ”Sister-in-law, let me drive you to the office. There are caregivers here to look after things.”

A glint appeared in Sunny Reed’s eyes. She nodded. ”Alright.”

She then turned to her parents. ”Dad, Mom, I’m heading to work now. Call me if anything comes up.”

Autumn Linton replied, ”Okay, you go on.”

The two of them left the hospital room together.

Autumn Linton then said, ”Charles, what do you think Walker Grant really means? Is he into Sunny, or is it Chloe?”

Charles Reed’s brow furrowed as well. ”I can’t figure him out either. That young man is a deep one.”

Autumn Linton sighed. ”He can’t possibly be interested in both of my daughters, can he? That would be unacceptable. Between Sunny and Chloe, he can only choose one.”

Charles Reed said, ”It had better be Sunny. That way, she’ll be taken care of for the rest of her life, and we won’t have to worry about her anymore. We can focus all our attention on Chloe.”

”Sigh...”

...

「In the car.」

Sunny Reed took out her phone and sneakily snapped a photo, aiming it at the steering wheel.

The shot captured the hand on the wheel, as well as the car’s logo on it.

Given how well Chloe Reed knew Walker Grant, she was sure to recognize at a glance that he was the one driving her.

Sunny Reed immediately made a social media post visible only to Chloe Reed, then put her phone away.

But just then, Walker Grant’s voice cut through the silence.

”Sister-in-law, let’s sort out the custody transfer for Noah. Send him over to the old family estate.”

Sunny Reed stared at him in utter disbelief. ”What did you just say?!”

’Did he mean what I think he means?’

’Is he trying to take Noah from me?!’
