Chapter 199 Touched My Fiancée
'Just a moment ago, you was so worried you were cursing. The president of the Martin Group, trying to please an ugly duckling...'
Stanley kept these thoughts to himself. Even if he was so bold, he wouldn't dare say them in front of Grant.
He couldn't understand why a high-caliber guy like Grant would be infatuated with someone like Chloe. Sure, she came from a good family, but so what? Grant wasn't short on money.
Grant didn't need to sell himself for the Davis family's wealth, did he?
Grant was in a good mood, but soon his expression turned serious.
He instructed Stanley, "Stanley, get in touch with Mr. Gutierrez. Tell him I want to meet and ask when he's available."
Stanley was a bit surprised to hear Grant mention Perry.
Perry was Hilary's husband, and both were influential figures in Sovereign City. Everyone knew Perry's success was due to Hilary, but beyond that, details were unclear.
Stanley thought for a moment and said, "Mr. Martin, I heard Hilary and Mr. Gutierrez have been having serious issues lately. Is it really a good time to meet him now?"
Grant's eyes narrowed, and he raised an eyebrow. "Why wouldn't it be? Their issues are their business, not mine. Mr. Gutierrez's mistress messed with my fiancée. I need to have a proper talk with him about that. Otherwise, he might think I'm easy to bully. Tell him to arrange a time soon, or I'll go to him myself."
Grant's words were sharp, and Stanley didn't dare say more. He quickly went to make the arrangements.
When Grant got home, Chloe had already showered and changed. She was sitting at the dining table, playing on her phone, waiting for dinner.
Seeing Grant return, she greeted him softly. "Grantie, you're back."
"Yeah." Grant took off his coat and sat next to Chloe. Without saying much, he wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her into his lap.
His sudden move startled Chloe. She quickly struggled to get down. "Grantie, don't... There are so many people at home. It's embarrased if they see."
Grant ignored her words. No one knew how much he missed Chloe after not seeing her for a day. He never imagined that someone as aloof as him could be so captivated by a young girl.
"What's there to be afraid of? Everyone knows we're dating." Grant buried his face in Chloe's neck, breathing in her scent with a satisfied expression.
Chloe tried to push his head away.
"Who said we're dating? I haven't agreed yet. Grantie, let me go." Chloe struggled to escape from Grant's embrace.
Grant didn't let go. Instead, he held her tighter.
"No way. Be good, or I'll kiss you." Grant whispered in her ear.
Chloe's face turned bright red.
She believed Grant would kiss her right there.
She stopped moving, letting Grant hold her soft body.
Grant asked, "How was your day? Did you have fun?"

Chloe nodded. "It was okay, pretty fun."
"Anything that made you unhappy?" Grant pressed.
Chloe thought for a moment. She wanted to tell Grant about running into Aaron, but remembering their bet, she decided to skip it.
"Just a little thing, but I handled it." her face radiated confidence.
Grant didn't ask further. At that moment, Mia brought in the food. Seeing Chloe and Grant talking while holding each other, Mia smiled brightly.
After setting the table, Mia quickly went to the kitchen. She found a discreet spot and secretly took a photo of Chloe and Grant together, sending it to Nicholas.
She believed Nicholas would be very happy to see the photo.
After a sweet dinner, Chloe went upstairs to prepare for school the next day, while
Grant headed to his study for an overseas video conference.
In the study, Grant's voice could be heard speaking in various languages.
Chloe finished her preparations and was about to rest when Mia knocked on her door. "Miss Davis, can you help me with something?"
"What's up?" Chloe opened the door to see Mia looking distressed.
"Miss Davis, Mr. Martin has a late overseas meeting tonight. He specifically asked me
to warm his coffee at intervals, but my stomach hurts badly, and I need to go to the hospital. Can you help me warm Mr. Martin's coffee?"
Mia looked genuinely in pain, clutching her stomach and bending over.noveldrama
Chloe and Mia were close, and Chloe was willing to help with such a small task.
"Okay, you go to the hospital. I'll help you." Chloe urged Mia to go to the hospital quickly.
As Mia went downstairs, she reminded Chloe, "Miss Davis, Mr. Martin doesn't drink cold coffee. You need to warm it every half hour..."
"Got it, go on." Chloe waved Mia off and went to the pantry. The coffee beans Mia had ground were already there.
Chloe made the coffee and carried it upstairs.
As she walked, she muttered about Grant. "Such a high-maintenance guy, can't drink cold coffee? Warm it every half hour? So picky. But, you have money, you can afford to be picky..."
Before she knew it, Chloe was at Grant's study door. She knocked and, hearing Grant's response, entered.
Grant, in the middle of his video conference, looked pleasantly surprised to see Chloe with the coffee.
Chloe intended to place the cup on his desk, but Grant beckoned her over. Misunderstanding his gesture, Chloe thought he wanted her to bring the coffee closer, so she approached him.
Grant took the coffee and pulled Chloe into his lap.
