Chapter 1696 Definitely
Byron left the ward with Chloe. Mary also walked out and did not participate in the examination because she had
not slept last night.
"Let's eat something. Rosie is now awake, and there’s nothing more to worry about."
Mary took out the food the director brought for them when she left the ward.
Chloe took them over and said, "I’ll heat them."
Mary looked at Byron, who still seemed displeased, and followed Chloe.
Although she did not know what Byron and Rosalie had talked about when they were not around, making them look
awkward, she felt she should let Byron be alone and calm himself down.

Chloe distributed the food into three portions and handed one to Mary before giving the other to Byron.
Looking at the food made Byron want to reject it. However, Chloe spoke out before he could say anything.
"Eat something. You look pale. Get some nutrients from this food. You still need to take care of Miss Jacobs.”
Then, she handed the food again to Byron.
This time, Byron took it, and his knitted brows loosened. 'Thank you. I never thought you would agree to my
request.”
When they were at the Lawrence family's mansion, he decided to be frank with Chloe. He thought a wealthy young
lady like her would hesitate. 1
Unexpectedly, she agreed readily.
When he recalled it, he felt grateful. If she had hesitated, it might have delayed the time they got the antidote.
Moreover, Rosalie's poison reacted so accurately...
If they were a second late, Rosalie would have...
Thinking of that possibility broke Byron's heart.
Chloe was sad to see him being so affectionate to another woman. However, when Byron looked at her, she smiled
and hid her emotions.
"You don't have to thank me. We’re friends, after all. If Miss Jacobs didn't marry you, your wife might have been
me.”
Byron's gaze turned cold upon hearing this. "You..."
Even Mary was shocked and approached them as she looked at Chloe warily.

The woman before her seemed simple and kind. It made Mary wonder if she was just like Wendy.
Looking at the two people who had taken it seriously made Chloe laugh.
"I'm just kidding. Although seeing you being so nice to Rosalie makes me envious, I think I'll meet my Mr. Right
who's willing to treat me like this too one day.”
A sincere smile was on her face.
Byron stared at her for a few seconds before calming down and nodding." Definitely."
Mary also nodded. "Miss Lincoln, you're so pretty. I’m sure many men have a crush on you."
Chloe sounded helpless as she said, "I hope there aren’t many. It would be difficult to choose someone who treats
me sincerely from so many men."
Mary was amused by Chloe's humourous character. They talked like friends who had never met each other for
years.
Byron turned around and looked at the woman surrounded by experts gently.
The three ate the food, and the atmosphere was better than in the ward.
