Chloe Grant was stunned for a long time before she sluggishly turned her head...
What met her eyes was a familiar handsome face.
His eyes were still as deep as ever, like the vast universe, mysterious black, yet filled with unknown dangers.
"Hmm?" Matthew Morgan frowned.
Looking at Chloe Grant, who was currently staring at him blankly, he was somewhat worried.
He supported himself with his hand on the ground, helping Chloe up as they both stood, carefully checking her condition.
Other than being a bit dazed, she had no other wounds, not even her clothes were dirty or torn.
Chloe’s body trembled slightly, as if she was regaining her senses, her eyes instantly reddened, and tears flowed unconsciously after the shock.
Matthew stretched out his right hand, pulling Chloe directly into his embrace, his right arm across her shoulders, holding her tightly.
Not only he, but Chloe herself could feel each other’s tangible presence!
And his left hand, at that moment, was oozing fresh blood, but before the blood dripped down, Matthew clenched his fist, making the blood less noticeable.
Being held, Chloe’s heart, which was frightened by the inexplicable car accident, gradually calmed down.
Once she somewhat recovered, realizing she was being held by Matthew Morgan, Chloe’s first reaction was to struggle to push him away, even instinctively taking a step back.
Putting distance between herself and Matthew Morgan.
Maybe out of guilt, Chloe kept her head down, so she didn’t see Matthew’s slightly pale complexion at the moment.
"Why... why are you here?"
After quite a while, Chloe finally spoke.
"To take you back." Matthew Morgan replied.
The onlookers who were originally surrounding them saw that the two of them were fine, so they naturally dispersed, gathering in twos and threes, still commenting on the car accident just now.
"I... I can go back myself..."
Before Chloe finished her sentence, Matthew Morgan already extended his right hand, leading her across the road.
Once they had crossed the road, Chloe struggled to free her hand, stepping aside.
At all times, she maintained a distant attitude towards Matthew Morgan.
"I can go back by myself..." she said weakly.
Matthew frowned, naturally displeased: "Go back like you did just now?"
Chloe was left speechless by the question and instinctively responded, "That was just an accident..."
"What car would suddenly crash at a red light?"
Especially when, as the car stopped, the driver stuck his head out, wearing sunglasses and a mask, having already planned his disguise.
"For the next few days, you’ll stay at the villa. I’ll send you to school and pick you up every day." Matthew Morgan directly made it a certainty.
Chloe frowned, wouldn’t that mean seeing him every day?
"It’s really nothing... Besides, I don’t go out while at school, there’s no need!" Chloe directly refuted.
In her heart, she was certain that it wasn’t an accident, but intentional!
However, she truly didn’t understand why someone, being just an ordinary girl who hadn’t crossed anyone or harmed anyone’s interests, would deliberately try to run her over?
Moreover, Chloe didn’t want Matthew Morgan to pick her up every day for school.
This way, she’d have to see him daily.
Looking at Chloe with her head down, Matthew knew what she was thinking and threw a sentence directly: "If you dare not come back, I’ll handle it myself."
His expression was serious, and the dominance in his aura was extremely strong.
With just a slight glance into his eyes, Chloe instinctively cowered and wanted to nod.
"I’d rather go by myself... mm!"
Chloe was directly dumbfounded when she saw the handsome face magnified before her, especially the pain on her lips, making her feel like she was going crazy!
