    Chapter 1508


    The game was not fully downloaded yet, but the call from the restaurant had already sounded.


    Nathan had a bigger appetite for food than games. He put down his phone, got up, and said, "Let''s


    eat first. After that, I''ll teach you how to y this game, and then we can team up."


    "Alright."


    Chloe smiled, put her phone aside, and joined the others in the dining room.


    Nathan''s way of eating was a sight to behold. The food looked so good, and while Chloe and the


    others were only halfway through their portions, he had already polished off two.


    But then again, he was raised in the Harper family, and his every move exuded a unique elegance.


    He ate fast, but it didn''te off as crude. Instead, it was quite enjoyable to watch.


    The fact that he ate fast couldn''t be overlooked, and Yulia couldn''t help but advise, "You should eat


    slower, otherwise you might have digestion problems."


    Nathan nced at her, leaned back in his chair, and gave a satisfied chuckle. "No worries, a little


    exercise will take care of that."


    His words sounded innocent enough, but they made Yulia''s heart skip a beat and her fork tremble


    slightly. Everyone present was married, and although he wasn''t wrong, it didn''t mask the double


    meaning behind his words.


    Chloe and Rose burst intoughter simultaneously. "Well, in that case, make sure you eat your fill.


    Wouldn''t want to run out of energy during your, ahem, ''workout'' and get hurt."


    Rose said, and Yulia, who had just taken a mouthful of food, choked and started coughing. At this


    moment, there was no need to consciously hide her blush. She could finally blush openly and


    without restraint.


    Chloe handed her a napkin and gently patted her on the back, "You okay?"


    Yulia waved it off.


    Seeing this, Rose couldn''t help but chuckle. Chloe gave her a helpless look.


    Nathan was sitting opposite, watching Yulia''s reaction, a mischievous smile ying on his face.


    "Rose, you seem to know a lot. Any personal experience?"


    This time it was Rose''s turn to choke. "It''s justmon sense, okay."


    Rose had never joked like this with a man before, and Nathan''s question made her blush.


    Everyone had their weaknesses. You can joke about others all you want, but how would you handle


    it when the tables were turned?


    That was Rose. But Nathan''s words stirred more than embarrassment in her. They brought a bitter


    taste to her mouth. Did she really have that much experience?


    To others, she was married and pregnant. She had a husband, a child, and a seemingly perfect


    family. But in reality, she''d only been with a man once. Just once, and she was pregnant. It was a


    story straight out of a soap opera.


    But her life was more like a series. Using her child to elevate her social status, meddling in other


    people''s rtionships, that was her reputation in R City and Morrison''s social circle. Her actions


    were calcted and far from righteous.


    Her throat felt better, but she couldn''t stop coughing. Chloe seemed to sense something, and


    passed her a ss of water. "Drink some water, eat up, and then give him a run for his money in the


    game."


    Rose looked up at her. Chloe looked worried, as if she was trying to protect her. She took the ss


    and took a sip.


    Nathan, listening to their conversation, suddenly burst intoughter. "You think you''re invincible?


    nning to get back at me through the game?"


    Rose put down the ss andughed, "Get back at you? What grudge do we have? Besides, we''ve


    never yed this game. I''m not foolish enough to use it as a weapon."


    Nathan chuckled, "No worries, I''ll teach youter."


    Rose smiled, "Then I''ll thank you in advance."


    Nathan got goosebumps from Rose''s smile, waved his hand andughed, "No need to thank me."


    However, not long after dinner, as everyone was on their phones, a news report came on TV. The


    report featured Starlight International building, and the main character was Carolina, who had


    caused a ruckus at thepany today.


    Everyone stopped what they were doing to watch the news. Carolina was standing in front of the


    fountain outside Starlight International, surrounded by reporters, all looking puzzled. No one knew


    what this infamous olddy was up to.


    "Hello everyone, thank you foring. I called this press conference because I want to use the


    power of the media to fight for justice for myself."


    Watching Carolina on the screen looking indignant and pitiful, Chloe chuckled and checked the


    progress bar of her game update.


    "Oh my god, what is this olddy up to now?" He hadn''t seen the news about Carolina''s rampage at


    Starlight International today, but now that she was on the news and had even held a press


    conference, it was clear she was stirring up trouble.


    "Chloe, your grandma, she''s such a pain in the ass, alwaysing up with new tricks." Rose was


    constantly amazed by this olddy''s antics. Dealing with people like this was really challenging.


    Yulia looked at Chloe worriedly, "What is she nning to do? Are we just going to let her keep this


    up?"


    Chloe said casually, "She''s just trying to use public opinion to force me to give her some money. If


    she''s not embarrassed, just let her make a fool of herself."


    "But won''t this have a negative impact on thepany? From the looks of it, she won''t back down if


    we don''t meet her demands."


    Chloe scoffed, "That''s okay, let''s see how far she''s willing to go."


    Yulia could only nod, as Carolina''s voice continued to re from the TV. "Everybody knows that


    Chloe was born and raised in our Summers family, and she''s our only grandkid. I admit that I''ve


    been kinda ck in looking after her before, hell, you could even say I didn''t care about her


    enough."N?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.
