Rural Belle & Three Heirs

With a nervous heart, Harry turned his head, trying to mask his anxiety. He put on a flattering smile and asked Chloe in a fawning tone, "Hey, Miss Davis, anything else you need?"

Chloe glanced at him, a hint of amusement in her eyes, and slowly said, "Didn't you just say that if someone gave you three hundred million dollars, you'd bow to them a few times? I'm not that demanding. Just one bow will do."

Hearing Chloe's words, Harry couldn't help but roll his eyes. It was his fault for being too hasty and speaking without thinking.

Hearing Chloe's words, Harry couldn't help but roll his eyes internally. It was his fault for being too hasty and speaking without thinking. And Chloe was too literal, actually holding him to his words and making him bow?

As the saying went, "A real man never kneels," how could he bow to Chloe, this plain girl? He felt a surge of indignation but quickly suppressed it, knowing that offending her could jeopardize everything. No way...

Harry was having an intense internal struggle, while Chloe watched him with a smile, enjoying his conflicted expression.

"We're about the same age, and you might even become my sister-in-law in the future. Bowing to you seems a bit inappropriate, doesn't it?" Harry tried to make his tone as smooth as possible.

Seeing Harry trying to weasel out, Chloe's face turned cold. "Alright, if you don't bow, then I'll just call our company leaders and tell them that the money transfer was a mistake and have it reversed. And as for our future cooperation, forget it. Since you can't keep your word, we probably won't benefit from working with you anyway. That's it."

Chloe picked up her phone, pretending to make a call. Her fingers hovered over the screen, her expression unwavering.

This scared Harry. His heart pounded in his chest, and a cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He knew that without this investment, his company would be doomed. The thought of losing everything because of his pride made him swallow hard.

He had been struggling to find funding, and now that he had finally got the money, he couldn't lose it over such a small issue. He would regret it forever.

Alright, as a man, he couldn't go back on his word, right?

For the money, bowing once wasn't a big deal. He weighed his pride against the future of his company, and the decision was clear.

Thinking of this, Harry hurriedly stopped her and said, "Miss Davis, no, don't call. I'll bow to you right now! It's just one bow, no big deal. I'm doing it for the company's benefit."

Harry said, getting ready to kneel and bow to Chloe. His movements were quick and desperate, his face flushed with a mix of embarrassment and determination. Seeing Harry take it seriously, Chloe quickly stopped him, her expression softening with a hint of amusement. "Alright, no need. I was just kidding."

Just as Chloe finished speaking, Grant returned from washing a towel. He held the damp cloth in his hand, his eyes widening as he took in the scene before him. Seeing Harry in this state, his face turned cold, a frown deepening the lines on his forehead. The atmosphere in the room grew tense, and Grant's presence added an extra layer of discomfort to the already awkward moment.

He extended his foot and lifted Harry's knee, preventing him from kneeling.

Grant gave Harry a sideways glance and scolded, "Have some dignity... Get out!"

Hearing Grant's words, Harry quickly fled, afraid that if he delayed, Chloe might change her mind.

After Harry left, Grant moved closer to Chloe, bringing a cup of warm water and handing it to her. His movements were gentle, and he looked concerned as he settled beside her.

"You invested in his little company?" he asked, his tone laced with curiosity and a hint of skepticism.

Chloe shrugged indifferently and said, "Yeah, he seems pityful, so I invested a bit." Grant's brow furrowed as he probed further, "How much?" He wasn't very optimistic about Harry's company and wanted to understand the extent of Chloe's involvement. Chloe didn't answer directly. Instead, she took a slow sip of the warm water, savoring the comfort it brought. Then, she held up three fingers, her expression unreadable. Seeing this, Grant let out a small sigh of relief and said, "Three million dollars, not too much."

Chloe retorted, "Not three million dollars, three hundred million dollars!"

Hearing this, Grant was momentarily stunned. Chloe seemed so low-key, yet she had invested three hundred million dollars in just a few minutes?

Grant's eyes widened in shock, his mouth opening and closing as he struggled to process her words. "Three hundred million dollars?" he repeated, his voice a mix of disbelief and concern. He stared at Chloe, waiting for her to confirm that she was serious.

Chloe smiled nonchalantly and said, "Business is about taking risks. If we make money, great. If we lose, it's just a small amount."

Grant was amazed by Chloe's attitude. He had been in the business world for years and had never heard such words from a woman.

Grant already had a bit of a crush on Chloe, and now, seeing her attitude, he admired her even more.

They were the same kind of people, both willing to take risks in investments.

Seeing Grant fall silent, Chloe casually teased him "My grandpa told me losing money

in business isn't scary. If I lose everything the Davis Family has, I can just marry into the Martin Family. The marriage money from the Martin Family would be enough to help the Davis Family start over."

Hearing Chloe's words, Grant instantly shut up. He felt like she was using him.

So she was so bold because she was sure the Martin Family would back her up?

If that were the case, he would have to work hard to make money, which would require

a significant amount of funds, to help the Davis family start over.

Grant reached out and lifted Chloe's chin, looking directly into her eyes, and said seriously, "Alright, Chloe, I'll work hard to make money and prepare for our wedding."

Hearing Grant's words, Chloe's face turned bright red. At that moment, she couldn't even look directly into Grant's passionate eyes.

If they weren't in the hospital, she felt Grant would definitely pull her into his arms and kiss her fiercely.

Meanwhile, Moira, from the Davis family, went to the Martin Group to find Grant for work reasons.

After learning from his assistant Stanley that Grant was out on business, she prepared to leave.

Unexpectedly, she ran into Sophia, who had been demoted to a parking lot attendant for plagiarism, in the Martin Group's parking lot.

Sophia, demoted to a parking lot attendant for plagiarizing design works, still acted arrogantly among her colleagues, relying on her former position as a manager at the Martin Group.

However, she was completely unaware of her own mistakes and believed that Chloe was entirely responsible for all her current troubles.

When she found out Moira was looking for Grant and that Grant wasn't in the office, she quickly approached Moira to share some gossip.

"Miss Thorne, are you here to see Mr. Martin?"

Moira smiled politely and said, "Yes, but Mr. Martin isn't here. Stanley said he's busy with work outside."

Hearing this, Sophia sneered. "Miss Thorne, you've been deceived..."noveldrama
