CHAPTER 249: CHAPTER 249: WHO DID IT? 9

Chloe Grant knew that she couldn’t keep this matter hidden forever, nor could she delay the man named S.

From the very start, that man made Chloe Grant feel as if he was a devil, making her afraid.

Chloe Grant had never considered herself a smart girl, nor did she have the ability to come up with a good solution to let this matter slide.

So, she chose to inform Matthew Morgan.

"Uncle Morgan..." Chloe Grant spoke softly, then bit her lip... finally, she pushed Matthew Morgan away, picked up a pen again, and wrote a sentence:

If... that thing is really important to you, you actually don’t need to worry about me.

"I’ll handle it." Matthew Morgan replied like this.

"First, take a shower, then get some sleep. When you wake up, I’ll help you remove the chip."

"What do you plan to do?" Chloe Grant inadvertently blurted out.

"He wants the thing, just give it to him, it’s that troublesome."

Matthew Morgan looked completely unconcerned.

But...

According to S’s tone, this thing should be quite important to Matthew Morgan.

How come...

"Go take a shower, get some sleep, you don’t need to think about any of this." Matthew Morgan stood up, his attitude returning to the usual indifference, even with a commanding air.

Chloe Grant opened her mouth, clearly having more to say.

But...

Why, when the words reached her mouth, nothing came out in the end?

Matthew Morgan patted her shoulder, telling her not to overthink, take a shower, sleep, and everything would pass.

"Uncle Morgan..."

Chloe Grant stood up, but after calling out, she had nothing else to say.

In the end, she simply gave up.

She lowered her head in some dejection, turned around, and walked toward the bathroom.

It was only after seeing her enter the bathroom that Matthew Morgan left.

Before going downstairs, Matthew Morgan went back to the room, put on a coat, took the car keys, and the thing that S wanted.

At this time, Lucas was still in the living room. Seeing Matthew Morgan coming down, he quickly approached, "Bro, did something happen to Chloe?"

"It’s nothing."

Matthew Morgan answered simply, his steps never stopping.

At the door, as the servant opened the car door, he got in and drove off immediately...

Lucas stood at the door, watching Matthew Morgan drive off, his brows furrowed deeply.

He said it was nothing, but judging by his demeanor, it was obviously something.

Lucas hesitated for a moment but eventually went upstairs to find Chloe Grant.

When he went up, Chloe Grant was still showering, the bathroom door locked.

Lucas stood at the bathroom door and knocked, "Chloe, are you in there?"

When he knocked, Chloe Grant was daydreaming in the bathtub, so she didn’t hear Lucas the first time he called her.

Until Chloe Grant heard Lucas’s voice outside, it seemed he had called several times, "Chloe Grant, are you dead in there or what?"

Evidently, he had called several times, and with no response, Lucas’s temper flared, leading to a direct outburst of profanity.

Chloe Grant quickly got up from the bathtub, "I... I just fell asleep... what is it?"

She put on a bathrobe, tidied herself up, then walked out to open the door...

Lucas stood at the doorway, not wasting any words, directly asking, "What did you just say to my brother?"

"Nothing." Chloe Grant responded almost without thinking.

It was obvious, there was something wrong!

"Chloe Grant, you’ve changed." Lucas closed his eyes, approaching her, "You used to tell me everything. Have you forgotten, we used to be an alliance, wary of him, you’re now siding with him to push me out, huh?"
