CHAPTER 492: CHAPTER 492: YOU’RE USING UNCLE MORGAN’S CARD? 2

Chloe Grant finally couldn’t stand it anymore and walked away from Ralph Koch, finding a corner for herself.

Actually, it didn’t matter whether she came today or not.

It’s just that when she texted Matthew Morgan earlier, he said it would be good for her to attend the banquet today.

She didn’t need to stay long, just long enough for the company’s executives to know she was there.

Chloe Grant planned to sit for a while and then leave, but she didn’t expect to run into Michael Taylor.

It was to be expected.

Ralph Koch mentioned that tonight was Elder Mr. Stern’s 80th birthday, and basically everyone in the royal city’s aristocratic circle would attend, giving Mr. Stern plenty of face and grand occasion.

"Chloe, what a coincidence. I was just thinking I might see you at the banquet tonight," Michael greeted her.

She always had a gentle demeanor, and her voice was soft.

Unlike Chloe Grant, whose voice could grow louder if she wasn’t careful.

"Are you alone?" Michael asked.

"The company asked me to handle a few things, so here I am," Chloe Grant explained.

Michael nodded in understanding.

After that, neither of them said much, remaining quiet.

Chloe Grant wasn’t the type to chat easily with strangers.

Meanwhile, Michael was naturally quiet.

After a moment of silence, Michael spoke up again, "Chloe, about the favor I asked of you before, is it possible?"

She was referring to the request about pretending to date Matthew Morgan with the intention of marriage as a pretense, and then revealing to her family after three months that he wasn’t suitable.

"Well... I haven’t really talked about it," Chloe Grant said with some difficulty, "I mentioned it to him, but he didn’t give me a concrete response."

"If Grandpa Morgan doesn’t agree, I’ll have to give up," Michael seemed very disappointed, "Perhaps he has a girlfriend..."

"His girlfriend agrees though," Chloe Grant blurted out without thinking.

She didn’t think it was a big deal.

Mainly, Matthew Morgan and Chloe Grant also needed time to deal with Isabella Gray.

And during this time, if Michael wasn’t suitable, Isabella Gray would definitely be searching, so it would be better to reach a mutual agreement with Michael, giving both sides some breathing room.

"He has a girlfriend?" Michael was very surprised, blinking her eyes, something flickered briefly in them, but she quickly hid it.

"Grandpa Morgan’s girlfriend, this is the first I’ve heard of it, have you met her?" Michael looked curious.

It seemed like pure gossip.

"An ordinary person."

Chloe Grant slipped up and didn’t know how to cover it up, so she quickly changed the topic, "I’ll talk to Uncle Morgan tonight, and if he agrees, I’ll let you know."

"Great, thank you!" Michael grabbed Chloe Grant’s hand, looking very earnest.

"Michael."

As the two of them were speaking, they heard someone calling out Michael’s nickname.

Chloe Grant recognized the familiar voice at once and turned to look—Sophia Fraser.

Beside her was Lily Grant.

Both were dressed to the nines and being beautiful attracted quite a bit of attention from the men.

Lily Grant had a sweet and pure charm.

Sophia Fraser was every bit the proud and dignified lady.

"Sophia," Michael smiled warmly, while subtly leaning towards Chloe Grant.

"Our families are close, but I don’t like her; she’s too self-centered and always telling me what to do, and once when I didn’t help her, she made me cry."

Michael whispered to Chloe Grant, sounding aggrieved.

At that moment, Chloe Grant felt only one thing...
