Chloe Grant clutched her head, feeling a severe headache.
However, Ralph Koch, who had originally stood up from the bed, suddenly turned around, grabbed Chloe Grant’s helpless wrist holding her own head, and pressed her entire body onto the bed.
He approached her, "Do you think your headache is severe? But do you know that when his hidden illness flares up, the headache can directly destroy his sanity!
You know very well what kind of person Matthew Morgan is. How indifferent, rational, and strong-willed he is, yet even such a person, the headache makes him lose his sanity. Can you even imagine that pain?"
In the end, Ralph Koch was so agitated that he directly shouted at Chloe Grant.
How could he not know?
He is the only one in the world who knows all of Matthew Morgan’s affections.
And it is because he knows the whole story, knows all of Matthew Morgan’s sacrifices, that he feels heartache for everything Matthew Morgan has done.
So he feels it’s not worth it!
"He once said something that I’ll never forget in this lifetime." Ralph Koch lowered his voice, looking at Chloe Grant with a smile, "He said, he has a hidden illness that cannot be cured. But this hidden illness is you from start to finish. The addiction is you, the affliction is you..."
"Chloe Grant, you are not worthy of all his sacrificial efforts."
As he spoke with emotion, even Ralph Koch’s eyes turned red, "You never knew, there was a man who hid from the whole world, risking his life to love you." Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢•𝓷𝓮𝓽
Chloe Grant was already in tears, overwhelmed by the shock of the truth and the guilt she felt over the past three years.
She reached out and covered her eyes, "Why are you telling me all of this..."
In her world, he had always been a serious and awe-inspiring elder.
She had been afraid of him since she was young, not even daring to make eye contact with him.
Chloe Grant often complained about him to Lucas Morgan.
"Why did you come back?"
"You should never have returned after leaving three years ago!"
In Chloe Grant’s mind, her past words to Matthew Morgan suddenly surfaced.
She finally understood why he would have been so angry upon hearing those words from her.
He stared at her with a complex gaze, even somewhat mocking.
Looking back now, the picture back then all starts to make sense.
"His injury, originally couldn’t heal completely in three years. But for you... for you! Chloe Grant!" Ralph Koch gritted his teeth as he shouted, "For you, he endured the ravages of the medication, went through the most torturous treatments. Each time he was in agony, sweating profusely, he would still lightly say, ’It’s okay, this way I can go back to see her sooner.’ You are his whole life!"
Chloe Grant could no longer listen.
She couldn’t bear it!
"Telling me to stop? Well, I insist on speaking! Today, I’m reminding you to carefully think through all these years, all the things you thought Lucas Morgan did for you, to sort them out, make them clear, ask clearly, whether it was Lucas Morgan who did them, or it was him!"
"I told you to stop!" Chloe Grant suddenly shouted, pushing Ralph Koch away.
She stood up from the bed, sniffled, and shook her head...
Ralph Koch looked at her, suddenly laughed, "I couldn’t understand before why he wouldn’t tell you the things he did.
I thought his view of love was ridiculously convoluted. Someone who sacrifices so much doesn’t say anything and even attributes all his efforts to someone else.
But now... I seem to understand."
