Our Anniversary, You Chose Her – I Chose Divorce

Sitting next to Chloe Reed, Red burst into laughter upon seeing this. He eyed her with a frivolous gaze. "Oh, you’re a little mute? Is it really safe for you to be eating here all by yourself? Why don’t we stick around? How about we exchange numbers?"

He pulled out his phone and shoved it right in front of Chloe.

Chloe’s pretty brows furrowed slightly. She had no desire to get into an altercation with these people—it was completely pointless—so she simply stood up to leave.

However, Red suddenly grabbed her arm. "Hey, don’t leave. I’m talking to you. I can overlook the fact that you’re mute, but are you deaf too?"

Chloe’s limpid eyes instantly turned cold. She swiftly grabbed Red’s wrist and, using a deft maneuver, twisted it to an unnatural angle. Red instantly let out an agonizing howl.

"L-let go..."

Seeing this, Red’s companions immediately stood up and glared at her with hostile intent.

Chloe gave Red a cold, indifferent stare before forcefully shoving him away.

Red clutched his wrist in agony, his face twisted in a vicious scowl as he glared at her. "You ungrateful bitch..." He immediately lunged at her. "Boys, hold her down and drag her inside!"

Outside was the bustling Nyx Market, but inside lay a pitch-black alleyway. If she was dragged in there, the consequences would be unimaginable.

The four men lunged at Chloe simultaneously. She immediately turned to run.

Frightened by the commotion, the surrounding bystanders hastily backed away. The four men looked incredibly vicious, and no one dared to intervene.

Standing a short distance away, Daniel Hayes witnessed the scene. He muttered a low curse and immediately sprinted over.

However, another figure was even faster.

The person grabbed Chloe and swiftly delivered a powerful kick, sending Red—who was leading the charge—crashing to the ground. He then let go of Chloe and hurled his fists into the faces of the remaining thugs.

His movements were sharp and decisive. In less than half a minute, all four men had been taken down! He stood towering over them, staring down with cold indifference.

"What’s going on? What’s going on?!"

The security guards of the Nyx Market finally arrived. Pushing their way through the crowd, they rushed in to assess the situation.

"Those guys were harassing my friend," Daniel explained. "Thank God for this..."

He turned around to thank the man who had suddenly appeared, but the spot where he had been standing was now completely empty.

"Huh? Where did he go?" Daniel looked utterly bewildered before turning to Chloe. "Chloe, did you see where that guy went?"

Chloe was still frozen in shock. Hearing his voice, she suddenly snapped back to reality and began frantically searching the area in a panic.

Just then, someone in the crowd pointed in a specific direction. "I saw him head that way."

Without a second thought, Chloe immediately dashed off in pursuit.

Seeing this, Daniel hurriedly told the security guards, "Arrest those hooligans. I need to go after my friend." He quickly chased after her, utterly bewildered. "Chloe, what are you doing?"

Chloe couldn’t even begin to describe her emotions. Her mind was a chaotic mess, like a tangled ball of yarn where she couldn’t find the end of the string. Right now, her only thought was finding that man.

He was too familiar. Every single movement of his was incredibly familiar.

He had kept his back to her the entire time, so she hadn’t been able to see his face clearly. However, his outfit was identical to the one she had seen earlier that day.

He had been dressed entirely in black, wearing a black baseball cap. And hidden beneath the brim of that cap was a face that looked strikingly similar to Walker Grant.
