Rural Belle & Three Heirs

Hearing Sophia's words, Moira's face turned icy, suspicion flickering in her eyes.

"What are you getting at?"

Sophia, with a sly grin, replied, "Mr. Martin isn't out working. He's at the hospital with that plain girl, Chloe.

You didn't know? Chloe got a fever last night and ended up in the hospital. Mr. Martin took a few days off to stay with her.

He even postponed a meeting with a big client from overseas."

Moira's expression shifted again.

She and the Thorne family had been trying to set her up with Grant. From her interactions with Chloe, Moira could tell that Chloe also wanted to match her with Grant.

So why was Grant now skipping work to stay with Chloe?

Could there be some secrets between Grant and Chloe?

Seeing Moira's doubt, Sophia continued to stir the pot. "That plain girl has a lot of tricks up her sleeve... She'll do anything to cling to Mr. Martin.

With her looks, if it weren't for her family background, Mr. Martin wouldn't give her a second glance. No man would be foolish enough to choose her over someone as beautiful as Miss Thorne."

Sophia's words left Moira even more confused.

She asked offhandedly, "Isn't Chloe Mr. Martin's cousin?"

Sophia feigned surprise and said, "Miss Thorne, you've been deceived. How could a handsome man like Mr. Martin have such an ugly cousin?

Chloe was forced into the Martin family by the Davis family as a candidate for the future mistress. Who knows what Louis was thinking, agreeing to let Chloe choose one of the three Martin brothers as her husband."I bet she's set her sights on Mr. Grant Martin..."

Sophia's instigation didn't fool Moira.

Moira, not wanting to deal with her, opened the car door to leave.

Sophia quickly slipped into the passenger seat and said, "Miss Thorne, don't you

believe me? Let's go to the hospital right now. I'll show you how that little tramp Chloe clings to Mr. Martin.

Miss Thorne, you and Mr. Martin are the perfect match. Even if you aren't dating, you can't let Chloe deceive you like this."

Sophia's words convinced Moira.

Indeed, she might not be dating Grant, but she couldn't let Chloe deceive her.

With that in mind, she drove to the hospital with Sophia.

On the way, Sophia didn't stop talking, constantly feeding Moira negative information about Chloe.

She said Chloe loved to bully people and undermine any woman close to Grant. She even claimed Chloe wasn't a good person and always caused trouble for Grant. The most outrageous claim was that Chloe had been gang-raped by seven or eight men when she was kidnapped.

In short, Sophia said the most hurtful things, effectively lowering Chloe's image in Moira's mind.

Meanwhile, at the hospital, Zara rushed over upon hearing about Chloe's illness. When Zara entered the room, she saw Grant gently wiping Chloe's face. His movements were so tender, like he was caring for a delicate doll.

Zara was touched by Grant's gentleness.

While Grant went to get fresh water, she leaned close to Chloe and whispered, "Chloe, The atmosphere between you and Mr. Martin is so sweet that it's almost

overwhelming. The way Mr. Martin wipes your face why is it so tender?"

Zara's words made Chloe blush. She retorted, "Zara, stop talking nonsense. I'm only being taken care of because I have an IV in my hand. You must be mistaken."

Chloe lowered her face shyly after speaking.

Zara rolled her eyes at her. "Come on, Chloe. Don't deceive yourself. Didn't you see how gentle Mr. Martin was?

I think Mr. Martin has feelings for you. He definitely likes you.

Honestly, marrying Mr. Martin wouldn't be bad. Even though he's a few years older, haven't you heard that older men know how to cherish women?"

"I think you and Mr. Martin are a perfect match..."

Just as Zara finished speaking, Sophia and Moira walked in. They happened to hear what Zara had to say.

Sophia seized the opportunity to stir the pot. "Miss Thorne, I told you Chloe has bad intentions towards Mr. Martin, and you didn't believe me. Now you've heard it yourself. She pretends to match you with Mr. Martin, but she's just using your trust to bully you. In fact, she is merely using you as a tool to strengthen her relationship with Mr. Martin. While the two of them are lovey-dovey, you're being sacrificed for their benefit." Sophia's words made Moira's face turn pale. Moira, the carefully groomed successor of the Thorne family, was well-educated and poised to inherit the family business. Such an outstanding woman would never allow herself to be used by Chloe. Seeing Moira's face change, Chloe couldn't help but curse at Sophia. "Sophia, what nonsense are you spouting? If you keep talking, I'll tear your mouth apart.noveldrama

You tried to seduce Grant and failed, so now you're framing me. How can you blame me for your failures?

Don't forget, when you tried to throw yourself at Grant in his office, I was the one who saved him. Sophia, you're a despicable person."

Sophia wasn't intimidated by Chloe's outburst. With a mocking expression, she said, "Yes, I like Mr. Martin. I want to be the mistress of the Martin family. I admit it.

Unlike you, who secretly wants to be the mistress but pretends otherwise, using your family's power to pressure Mr. Martin. You're shameless.

Ugly girl, you want to marry Mr. Martin? Look at yourself. Only someone as noble as Miss Thorne deserves to be with Mr. Martin."

Sophia's words infuriated Chloe. She reached to pull out her IV, determined to slap Sophia.

The tension between the two was about to explode.
