Three years ago, the reason for the accident was because Lucas Morgan took Chloe Grant racing, which led to it.
Lucas had always been a playful person since he was young, and having an outstanding brother always overshadowing him made him start self-destructive behavior, turning himself into a playboy of a wealthy family.
Car racing was one of Lucas’s favorite extreme sports at the time.
That day, he didn’t know what came over him and said to Chloe, "Let me take you for some excitement."
Lucas let her sit in his newly modified sports car and raced through the valley known as the "death zone" in the capital city, and the outcome was...
Midway through, Lucas’s car lost control, just on the verge of overturning down the cliff...
He thought he was doomed... At the critical moment, a car suddenly sped from behind, hit his car head-on, and pushed it out of the danger zone, but that car went down instead—
Fortunately, that car didn’t fall down the cliff but got stuck among the trees halfway.
The person inside the car was none other than Matthew Morgan!
It was then Lucas realized that when he took Chloe racing, Matthew, who was initially working in his study, rushed over immediately upon getting the news and silently followed behind, worried that something might go wrong.
As it turned out, something did go wrong...
During the time of the accident, Matthew had just settled the internal turmoil of Morgan Group, and Mr. Morgan had just completed heart stent surgery.
If news of something happening to Matthew got out at that time, Morgan Group would face massive upheaval again.
Before falling into a coma, Matthew instructed Lucas to take him abroad and not to tell anyone.
He especially emphasized, "Don’t tell Chloe about this."
The story afterward is simple: Matthew had been recuperating abroad while remotely managing Morgan Group.
His outstanding abilities allowed him to keep the company running steadily and its worth multiplying, despite remotely managing a multinational corporation.
Lucas sat back in his seat, covering his face with his hands, "This accident also left you with chronic migraines. That night, Chloe called me saying your OCD acted up and you threw a fit... I knew right away it was the migraines.
It’s like the night before you returned home, the way you were in pain, it made my heart tremble."
Lucas lowered his hands and looked up at Matthew.
Matthew’s face remained expressionless, as if he was listening to a story about someone else, unaffected.
Lucas continued, "Later, Chloe came to ask me who was with me in my room that night when she walked in. It was you... but I couldn’t say.
Because once I said it, it would involve the car accident from three years ago."
During the three years Matthew was gone, Chloe lived carefreely, bouncing around every day, often saying, "Uncle’s gone, that’s great."
If she knew the reason Uncle wasn’t around was to save her, how could she accept such an outcome?
Thinking of this outcome, Matthew’s eyes suddenly turned cold, "I don’t want to hear about this matter again in the future!"
Lucas stood up abruptly, disagreeing, "Do you really intend to keep these things buried forever..."
Before Lucas could finish, someone called him from the other direction of the hallway.
He stopped, and Matthew frowned.
Both of them turned simultaneously toward the source of the voice...
