Chapter 405: Chapter 405: You Finally Came Back, Before I Gave Up 5
Matthew Morgan was also not expecting to run into them directly like this...
The four of them stood in the corridor, with no one making any further moves, almost in complete silence.
Except for Lucas Morgan, the others on the sidelines were clearly puzzled. He didn’t know Chloe Grant, but sensibly kept quiet, not interrupting.
Chloe Grant stared blankly at Matthew Morgan...
In these two years, she found that Matthew Morgan seemed to have not changed at all... No, it seemed he had lost weight... No, no, she had never dared to look at him so boldly before.
So whether he was fat or thin, or had changed, Chloe couldn’t tell.
The only thing she could determine was that he was always the same, highly recognizable, with a strong presence.
The silence lasted for almost a minute, and it was Matthew Morgan who first took a step towards Chloe Grant.
Maybe it was because the encounter was too sudden, when Matthew Morgan came closer... Chloe Grant instinctively stepped back.
Matthew Morgan stopped, "I heard from Ling Ren that you have a dinner party tonight?"
Chloe Grant stalled for a moment, then stiffly nodded, "Oh, yes..."
Her heart was in a panic...
She lowered her head, not daring to meet Matthew Morgan’s eyes.
But within a few seconds, Chloe Grant couldn’t help but glance up at him secretly, only to quickly drop her gaze again the next second.
He seemed unfazed, as if nothing had happened.
It really seemed like an uncle casually running into his niece outside, greeting her briefly, then politely asking, "Which room?"
"401..." Chloe Grant pointed very stiffly to a door not far behind her.
Just around the corner.
Matthew Morgan nodded, looking back at Lucas, "When it’s over, let Lucas take you back. I have things to do, so I’ll leave first."
He spoke very officially, and combined with his naturally cold disposition, it gave Chloe Grant a somewhat aloof feeling.
But actually...
This attitude was the same as before.
Only now Chloe Grant knew what he had done over the years, so her feelings were different.
When Matthew Morgan passed by her, Chloe Grant hurriedly looked up, unable to resist calling out, "Then... can’t you take me?"
After shouting, Chloe Grant regretted it!
She quickly closed her eyes, wondering what on earth she had just said.
The steps ahead paused, and without turning back, Matthew Morgan said indifferently, "Send me a message when it’s over."
No refusal.
Chloe Grant opened her eyes, slightly surprised, but wanted to smile, a smile she couldn’t hold back...
Watching Matthew Morgan leave, she unexpectedly felt a fluttering feeling in her heart.
After Matthew Morgan left, Lucas exchanged a few words with the person next to him, and that person followed Matthew Morgan forward.
Lucas walked towards Chloe Grant leisurely, with his hands in his pockets.
He lowered his head, "When my brother was back, he asked how things were between you and me..."
Hearing Lucas’s words, Chloe Grant snapped back to the present, looking at him strangely.
Lucas looked up, with a bitter smile at the corner of his mouth, "I said, we’re still in progress... Sorry, my brother has asked about us more than once, asking if my family matters are settled, asking when I plan to finalize things with you..."
The more Lucas spoke, the more Chloe Grant’s brows furrowed.
She couldn’t understand why Lucas would say such things?
In the past, Chloe Grant dreamed of being with him.
She dreamed of hearing Lucas confess.
But...
By the time Lucas confessed, Chloe Grant already knew that someone had dedicated their entire life to her.
She couldn’t turn a blind eye, nor could she accept Lucas.
Some feelings, once missed... are missed for a lifetime.
