Chloe Grant struggled, "Let go of me!"
"Enough, Chloe Grant!" Lucas Morgan shouted coldly, having lost all patience.
Chloe Grant stubbornly stared back.
At the moment the two were at a stalemate, the silent Matthew Morgan’s expression darkened. He walked towards Lucas and Chloe...
Matthew Morgan forcibly pried Lucas’s hand off Chloe Grant’s wrist, and with his other hand, he swung Chloe Grant’s hand towards Lily Grant’s face!
The sound was loud and clear. Lily Grant, without Lucas’s protection, was hit with the force of Matthew Morgan’s slap and fell to the ground.
Lucas exploded in anger.
Matthew Morgan coldly met his gaze, like a beast long in hibernation finally opening its eyes, sharp and fierce.
It made people feel a deep fear from within.
Matthew Morgan shook off Lucas’s hand, turned, and headed towards the door.
The people at the door hadn’t left; as soon as the door opened, they stood up straight nervously.
Matthew Morgan turned his head slightly, his tone chilly, "Take that woman to the room next door."
The adjacent room was where the beggars were kept.
Matthew Morgan hadn’t had the beggars dealt with, just for this moment.
With just one command, a bodyguard immediately came in.
Lucas helped Lily Grant up, glaring coldly at the approaching bodyguards, "Who dares to touch her, try it!"
The bodyguards halted.
Grandpa Morgan couldn’t be provoked.
The second young master of the Morgan family was not someone to be messed with either.
"Lucas, I’m scared..."
Lily Grant cried as she hid behind Lucas’s back.
She was truly terrified now.
Although Matthew Morgan spoke little, the oppressive aura of darkness he emanated instilled fear in her heart.
"It’s okay, I’m here," Lucas said reassuringly.
Turning back, he yelled angrily, "I won’t let you treat her in such an inhumane way!"
After Lucas roared in anger, Chloe whipped her head around to look at him.
Tears began to uncontrollably fall.
They fell drop by drop.
But Lucas couldn’t see it; all he could see was his concern and care for Lily Grant.
He thought sending Lily Grant to the beggars next door was an inhumane act. But he didn’t feel that causing Chloe Grant to almost be violated by five beggars was something that could be forgiven with just an apology.
Chloe Grant suddenly laughed, a laugh that echoed out loud.
In this room, in this scene, her laugh sounded so abrupt, but she didn’t care, she just laughed.
Do you know what despair is?
What kind of emotion is it to be completely hopeless about someone?
Just a pain that feels like it could kill you.
Chloe Grant stopped laughing and shook her head.
She never understood the saying "youth fed to the dogs" that circulated online before because she thought her youth was wonderful.
But at this moment, she finally understood.
Not just her youth, but damn, she had fed ten whole years of feelings to the dogs.
Matthew Morgan glanced at Chloe Grant, then fixed his gaze on Lucas, "Open your eyes and see clearly."
With those words, Matthew Morgan snapped his fingers.
Immediately, a bodyguard at the door dragged someone in and dropped them next to Lucas and Lily Grant.
This person was the waiter who had tricked Chloe Grant into the room earlier.
When Lucas kicked the door open, Matthew Morgan had ordered the hotel’s suspicious staff to be rounded up.
The waiter now looked disheveled and badly beaten, clearly having been dealt with. She trembled and cried, "Please let me go, I was just doing a job for money, I’m innocent, please let me go."
Lily Grant was shocked to see this waiter...
