Rural Belle & Three Heirs

"Isidora and Mr. Martin were college classmates." Sophia said triumphantly.

"Back then, the whole school knew about Mr. Martin's crush on Isidora. To show his feelings, Mr. Martin wrote nearly a hundred love letters to Isidora."

"Chloe, you'll never mean as much to Mr. Martin as Isidora does. You're just a third wheel. Get out of his life."

Chloe couldn't take it anymore as she looked at Sophia's smug face.

She picked up a small stone from the ground and, without hesitation, hurled it at Sophia's head. Chloe had grown up in the northwest, often hunting with the herdsmen, which had refined her throwing skills to precision.

The small stone cut through the air swiftly and struck Sophia's head with unerring accuracy. As the stone hit, Sophia clutched her head, letting out a piercing scream.

"Chloe, how dare you throw that at me?" Sophia clutched her head, staring at Chloe in disbelief.

Seeing Sophia's disheveled and indignantly infuriated expression, Chloe couldn't help but chuckle, a hint of mischief gleaming in her eyes. She said leisurely, "When I can use my hands, I prefer not to argue with you, Sophia. Don't think you can provoke me. This time I threw a small stone at you; next time, it might be a big one."

Her eyes momentarily flickered with a cold, stern glint before she added playfully, "You better watch out, so I don't end up killing you by accident."

Ignoring Sophia, Chloe turned and headed to the Martin Group's office building, her back firm and resolute. The wind gently tousled her hair, adding to her free-spirited and determined demeanor.

Sophia stood in the parking lot, holding her throbbing head, speechless. It seemed she never got the upper hand in her encounters with Chloe.

When Chloe arrived at Grant's office, it was already crowded with people.

They were gathered in groups, discussing the missing letter of intent. After all, it was crucial for the Martin Group's future.

Their chatter ceased as soon as Chloe walked in, and all eyes turned to her.

Chloe scanned the room and saw Liam sitting in the corner, engrossed in a mobile game, oblivious to her arrival.

She wanted to ask him how he planned to clear her name, but the people in the office immediately turned their accusations on her.

"Are you here to return the company's letter of intent? How dare you show up after stealing such an important document?"

"If it weren't for Mr. Martin protecting you, we would have had you thrown in jail by now."

"Yeah, hand over the stolen letter of intent."

Under Giselle and Isidora's influence, they had already decided Chloe was the thief.

So they didn't hold back in their accusations.

Chloe felt wronged and was about to defend herself when Grant, with a stern expression, stepped beside her.

His authoritative gaze silenced the room instantly.

It was clear he was protecting Chloe, which touched her. But remembering what Sophia

had said about him writing a hundred love letters to Isidora in college, Chloe felt a pang of sadness.

However, she knew today was crucial for clearing her name. Now wasn't the time to argue with Grant over jealousy.

She must clear her name.

"Why did you come over? Why didn't you send me a message before coming?" Grant asked softly as he stood beside Chloe.

"I came to clear my name," Chloe said with a smile.

"You didn't need to come. I've already told everyone you didn't steal the letter of intent," Grant said softly.

"Grantie, did you find any evidence?" Chloe asked.

Grant shook his head. "Not yet, but I believe in you."noveldrama

Over the past two days, Grant had pulled all the surveillance footage from the company in an effort to clear Chloe's name, but he hadn't made any progress.

Some of the footage seemed to have been deliberately erased. To recover the data, Grant and Isidora sought out a former surveillance engineer who had resigned, but still, they made no progress.

Now, in order to protect Chloe, Grant could only bear the burden himself.

"You believe in me, and I also believe in myself. But these old-timers in your company don't, which puts you in a tough spot, doesn't it?"

Chloe's sharp words were a direct hit at the board members who had been accusing her.

Indeed, compared to Chloe, they were a bit old.

They were furious at being called old-timers but had to swallow their anger since Grant was in charge.

"Do you have any evidence?" Grant asked Chloe.

Chloe shook her head. "No, but Liam said he could help me..."

With that, she pointed to Liam, who was still absorbed in his game.

Liam was sitting cross-legged on the sofa, eyes glued to his phone.

From the start of the workday until now, everyone had been discussing the missing

letter of intent, and no one had noticed Liam sitting there.

"Liam, what are you doing? Didn't you ask me to come to Grantie's office?" Chloe raised her voice to get his attention.

Liam casually replied, "What's the rush? Let me finish this game first. Damn it, who just hit me? Show yourself!"

Liam's nonchalant attitude made the board members shake their heads in disbelief.

It was only at this moment that they had to admire Louis's foresight. Among the three grandsons, only the steady Grant was capable of undertaking the responsibility of ensuring the smooth development of the Martin Group.

Meanwhile, Giselle and Isidora entered the room. Giselle had overheard the

conversation and quickly decided to get rid of Liam.

"Liam, you're too old to be skipping school and playing games in Grant's office." Giselle

said.

"Get back to school. This isn't a place for you to mess around." Giselle, with a stern

face, approached Liam and reached out to pull him away.
