CHAPTER 440: CHAPTER 440: MAYBE, YOU CAN TAKE THE INITIATIVE FOR THE TENTH TIME

Jodie Cooper pushed Chloe Grant directly into a seat, causing quite a commotion when Chloe sat down.

The little child sitting in Matthew Morgan’s lap looked shocked, his eyes wide as he stared at Chloe Grant...!

"Pfft!"

Jodie Cooper burst into laughter, quickly taking out her phone to capture Cloudy’s expression at that moment.

She heartlessly turned it into a meme.

"Eldest Sister Harper..."

The little child finally reacted, his voice soft and crisp, tinged with confusion.

He tilted his little head, clearly perplexed by Chloe Grant’s behavior.

"Haha... I just tripped a bit," Chloe Grant explained casually.

She sneaked a glance at Matthew Morgan...

He was looking at her, but quickly shifted his gaze away.

At this moment, he was peeling the white strands off an orange.

He had been peeling since he sat down, and now was almost done handling the strands.

Chloe Grant sat nearby, smiling at the little child, feeling a bit awkward.

Instinctively, she glanced at Jodie Cooper, who gave her a stern look, indicating for her to talk to Matthew Morgan!

Chloe Grant licked her lips, clearly a bit flustered.

What should she say?

What should she talk about?

A multitude of questions arose in her mind, and she felt quite nervous internally.

"It’s ready." Matthew Morgan’s voice was calm as he handed the prepared orange to the child in his lap.

"Ah... an orange..." The little child seemed noticeably unhappy at the sight of the orange.

But still reached out to take it, mumbling, "I hate oranges the most. Daddy knows that..."

He was clearly very dejected.

"How can you hate oranges? Oranges are delicious."

Chloe Grant was quick to jump in when she found a topic to talk about.

"Sister Harper, do you like oranges?" The little child looked up innocently.

Chloe Grant nodded, "Yes, I really like oranges."

No sooner had she finished speaking than the little child split open the orange and offered a segment to Chloe Grant’s mouth.

Chloe Grant paused for a moment...

"Then have some more." The little child said, conscientiously separating the orange into segments.

Matthew Morgan naturally took a small plate, "Put them here, or it’ll get dirty."

As he spoke, he also insisted the little child place each orange segment neatly on the plate.

Watching this, Chloe Grant suddenly burst into laughter...

All these years, Uncle Morgan’s obsession with tidiness hadn’t changed.

Chloe Grant laughed a bit too loudly, causing Matthew Morgan to glance at her.

She promptly pressed her lips together, stifling her laughter.

The little child looked up and offered another piece of orange to Chloe Grant, "Sister Harper, open up..."

Chloe Grant glanced at him and naturally opened her mouth to eat.

It was very sweet and delicious.

Jodie Cooper quietly ate fruit, watching the scene unfold from the side.

Isabella Gray came out during this, greeting Jodie Cooper.

She glanced over at the delighted Chloe Grant and her harmonious interaction with Loren, feeling quite gratified, then went back to her tasks.

Meanwhile...

Just as Chloe Grant finished her third orange, Jodie Cooper could no longer hold back.

She quietly nudged Chloe Grant with her foot.

Chloe Grant winced in pain, looking over displeased...

Jodie Cooper glared at her!

With a glance indicating the nearby Matthew Morgan still handling the orange strands.

She was genuinely enjoying herself, eating happily as an adult peeled the orange and a child fed it to her!

She’d forgotten her main task.

Chloe Grant’s sudden realization was obvious on her face, directly reminding Jodie Cooper that she had truly forgotten what she was supposed to do...
