Lucas withdrew his hand from Lily Grant’s head, his expression a bit cold, "Chloe doesn’t gossip."
Moreover, Matthew Morgan isn’t someone who listens to gossip either.
Lily originally had her head down, and hearing Lucas defend Chloe so directly, naturally felt displeased.
But she was smart and did not argue.
When she looked up, she quickly explained, "I didn’t mean it that way, my sister is really great. I... maybe was misunderstood when I was young, so I felt wronged. I didn’t mean to speak ill of her."
"No, I didn’t misunderstand." Lucas shook his head, and when he looked at Lily again, his gaze naturally softened, filled with affection.
He always liked this kind of soft, adorable, sensible, and gentle young girl.
Lucas’s expression suddenly turned a bit serious.
He looked back at the tightly closed door, rubbing his forehead, "Chloe has been in a bad mood lately."
Lucas’s eyes seemed a bit distant, he sighed slightly, "She’s not someone who gets upset easily."
Even when she’s troubled, she finds ways to vent.
If it’s not binge-eating spicy food, it’s bungee jumping, or perhaps both, but she always finds a way to let it out.
Whether eating spicy or bungee jumping, afterward, Chloe returns to her carefree self, always happily clueless.
Lucas also heard from his mother that Chloe went bungee jumping in the suburbs with Matthew, indicating her emotions should have been released. Yet, she remains unhappy.
This is the first time in ten years.
Lucas is quite worried if something serious happened to Chloe?
Lucas’s appearance and gaze show his concern for Chloe.
Lily noticed this, anger boiling in her heart.
The hand at her thigh quietly clenched into a fist, internally gritting her teeth: Chloe! What gives you the right to be loved?
Just because your father was lucky, all of this should have been mine!
Lily was biting her teeth in hatred in her heart, but when she faced Lucas, she could still put on an understanding smile.
She tugged Lucas’s arm and said, "Lucas, Chloe is upset because of that boy."
"What?" Lucas turned back, full of confusion.
Lily continued, "Remember that day at dinner with Grandpa Morgan, I mentioned Chloe buying medicine?"
"I thought you were joking." Lucas frowned.
Didn’t expect it to be true.
"I wasn’t joking. Chloe likes a senior at school, but he’s indifferent to her, so Chloe got upset and said she’d sleep with him first before discussing it. I guess..." Lily bit her lip, pausing, then continued, "Chloe might be upset now because she slept with that senior, and he denied it?"
"Who? Take me to your school now to drag that person out." Hearing this, Lucas immediately turned serious, his anger flaring.
Unlocking his suit cuffs, he rolled up his sleeves, saying fiercely, "That punk, he’s asking for trouble daring to bully a member of the Morgans."
"Let’s go, get that punk out immediately, let’s see if I don’t beat him to a pulp!"
Lucas’s face was extremely dark, pulling Lily along as he walked.
This was the first time Lily saw Lucas angry; normally, he was carefree and unserious, but when he got mad, his aura strangely resembled Matthew’s.
