"What did she say?" Chloe Grant was a bit agitated.
She understood this feeling all too well.
Your feelings for someone might not mean much at first.
Some affections are mild, but... when that person does something or says something, it suddenly strikes your heart—
At that moment, you have no other thought but four words: it must be him.
Lucas Morgan paused for quite a while before finally saying softly, "She said, as long as you take it seriously, you can let the whole world know you are stronger than Grandpa Morgan!"
Lucas Morgan was very emotional when he said this, as it was a sore point in his life.
But Chloe Grant’s heart... plummeted to the bottom.
In her mind, she naturally recalled how she had hugged Lily Grant countless times, feeling it was unfair for Lucas, "Clearly, my Mr. Morgan is such an exceptional person, why does the whole world only see Matthew Morgan’s greatness? One day, my Mr. Morgan will prove he is the best!"
"And then, you liked her?" Chloe Grant only felt a bit desolate.
"No." Lucas sighed, seemingly laughed, "I just thought this little girl was quite fun at the time, and I liked talking to her. She always encouraged me, affirmed me."
Step by step, she conquered his heart.
Lily Grant knew Lucas Morgan’s weakness from Chloe Grant, so she continually attacked.
Matthew Morgan had been outstanding since childhood, sharp and eminent, the most outstanding business heir in the whole Morgan family. His talents in both studies and business were unparalleled.
It was precisely because of Matthew Morgan’s excellence that it doomed Lucas Morgan, who was equally excellent, yet unseen.
He has revenge and ideals, and his own pride, unwilling to live under Matthew Morgan’s shadow.
He wants to be the first, to be unique.
But... no one understands.
Until Lily Grant appeared...
"So that’s how it is..."
Chloe Grant seemed to murmur as if she had learned the truth, sighed.
After a while, she said, "I’m tired, I want to rest."
She didn’t want to say more, the more she said, the more it hurt inside.
Lucas stood up, pulled the covers over Chloe, letting her lie comfortably.
Chloe closed her eyes, pretending to be asleep.
Lucas helped Chloe tuck the quilt in, arranged her hair, letting her rest comfortably.
After finishing, he quietly left the ward and closed the door.
After hearing the light closing sound of the door, Chloe suddenly opened her eyes, gazing unfocused at the ceiling, with a bitter smile at the corner of her mouth—
You say she understands your grudge, understands your unwillingness, but do you know?
The one who truly understands you... is me.
After leaving Chloe’s ward, Matthew Morgan had already hung up the phone and came over.
"She’s tired, just fell asleep." Lucas reminded Matthew.
Matthew, who was about to enter the ward, stopped his actions, frowned.
Lucas turned around, sat on a chair next to the corridor, took out a cigarette from his pocket, and handed one to Matthew.
Matthew took it, leaned against the wall, looking a bit languid.
Lucas took a deep breath, "She just suddenly brought up the moment two years ago when she suddenly went blind."
As he spoke, white smoke puffed out of his mouth, slightly blurring his expression.
Matthew didn’t respond.
Lucas continued, "This suddenly reminded me of an event three years ago..."
