Hearing Chloe''s spection, Grant quickly denied it. "Chloe, you''re overthinking this. Everyone at Martin Group knows about the engagement between the Martin and Davis families. Plus, during that video conference, I made it clear I already have a fiancée. Why would Giselle think otherwise? I think she just wanted to repay Isidora for saving her life by helping her get a job."


    Chloe wasn''t buying Grant''s exnation. It wasn''t that she didn''t trust him, but she doubted Giselle''s intentions. She also didn''t believe that Isidora, the new secretary, would be trouble-free.


    They were trying to extend their influence into Martin Group.


    "Alright, I get it, Grantie. Look into this thoroughly." Chloe bit her lower lip and said firmly. "Of course, I won''t ck off. They won''t frame me that easily."


    In truth, she was clueless and didn''t know how to clear her name.


    Seeing Chloe''s troubled expression, Grant held her hand and said seriously, "Chloe, I''ll always be on your side. Please trust me and don''t let others sway you. Give me some time, and we''ll work through this together."


    Looking at the sincere Grant, Chloe couldn''t me him anymore. In the Martin Family, he was her only ally. If she fell out with Grant, it would be even harder to clear her


    name.


    With Grant''spany, Chloe slept peacefully that night.


    When facing different situations, she must be adept at adopting various strategies and responses. Chloe had always been reluctant to get involved in the Martin Family''s affairs. But since some people insisted on dragging her into it, they shouldn''t me her forplicating things further.


    The next day, Chloe woke up feeling refreshed after a good night''s sleep.


    After having breakfast with Grant, they headed to Quest University together. As per their usual routine, Grant dropped her off at the university entrance before leaving. Just as Chloe was getting out of the car, Grant called out to her again. "Chloe, trust me..."


    Chloe flexed her arm, making a gesture of determination.


    She then headed to her ssroom with her backpack. Once she sat down, she noticed that Philip wasn''t there today.


    She leaned over to Rena and asked, "Rena, Philip didn''te to school today..."


    "Yeah, he texted me early this morning asking me to excuse him. He said he has a filming task today." Rena showed Chloe the message Philip had sent her.


    Chloe then remembered that Zara had texted herst night about today''s filming. She had been too preupied with the proposal over the contract with Grant to pay attention to the message.


    The director had paired Philip and Floyd into a duo and created a music video for them. Today''s task was to film the video for promotional purposes.


    Zara was indeed very capable. Chloe felt reassured having her as the general manager of her newpany.


    "Oh... I forgot."


    Rena stood up, linking her arm with Chloe''s. "Chloe, Philip mentioned that the director yourpany hired is very professional. How about we visit the set after school?"


    "Visit the set? You always go to film sets with Michael. Don''t you know what a set looks like?" Chloe teased her.


    Rena replied, "I just want to see how yourpany does it. Let''s go after school. We don''t have anything else to do anyway."


    "Alright, let''s go after school." Chloe agreed with Rena.


    The day''s sses ended quickly. After school, Chloe rode her motorcycle with Rena to the filming location.


    Rena was curious about the music video shoot and immediately went to watch the filming.


    Meanwhile, Zara pulled Chloe aside to report on the work situation.


    Zara asked quietly, "Chloe, what''s going on? I told you that Jessica had already secured


    the financing for us. Why did you get another investment?"


    "I didn''t get any investment," Chloe said, puzzled.


    Zara showed Chloe thepany''s ount information. "Look, thisrge sum of money if you didn''t secure it, who did?"


    Zara pointed to a long string of numbers, indicating a significant amount of money.


    Chloe thought for a moment and said, "Maybe Grant transferred it. But I didn''t see him in his office yesterday morning. And he didn''t mention anything about transferring money to thepanyst night. I need to ask him."


    Chloe took out her phone to call Grant.


    Just then, a news alert popped up on her phone. Chloe intended to close it but noticed her name in thetest news headline.


    Entertainment News: [The Davis Group used the engagement to infiltrate the Martin Family. Miss Chloe Davis stole an important cooperation proposal from the Martin Group''s office. This proposal, crucial to the Martin Group''s development, was not archived, causing significant losses.


    Reportedly, the Martin Group, bound by the engagement, did not report the incident to the police. Coincidentally, at 3 PM today, the Davis Group held a press conference at their headquarters in Emberfall City, presenting their five-year strategic n.]


    Reading the news, Chloe''s heart raced with anger.


    She couldn''t believe that in just one day, she, the esteemed Miss Davis, had be a thief in the eyes of the media.


    The missing cooperation proposal was an internal matter of the Martin Group. Grant was still investigating it. How did this news get out?


    Chloe couldn''t believe it wasn''t orchestrated by someone behind the scenes.


    But who could it be?


    Was it Giselle, who kept using her?


    Or the seemingly harmless new secretary, Isidora?


    She didn''t know either of them well. It didn''t seem like they had any reason to harm


    her.


    Chloe was bing increasingly unsettled...
