CHAPTER 499: CHAPTER 499: YOU’RE USING UNCLE MORGAN’S CARD? 9

Matthew Morgan was originally going to feed her an orange, and Chloe Grant had opened her mouth, but could only watch as the orange ended up in Matthew’s mouth.

Chloe Grant looked up and stood up, a little angry, "The last one, and you ate it yourself?"

"Didn’t you say I was a bully?" Matthew Morgan raised an eyebrow, "I have to do something to live up to that name."

Chloe Grant pouted.

Her Uncle Morgan is really so childish!

She turned around, lay back in Matthew’s arms, and muttered several things, none of which Matthew cared to understand or hear.

After a while...

"Uncle Morgan, I just ran into Michael Taylor downstairs," Chloe Grant recalled something about Michael, "the girl who asked me to delay for three months before."

"And then?"

"So, do you agree? Think about it, three months gives us time to find a way to talk to Grandma about this. And it also gives Michael three months as a buffer to wait for her boyfriend."

Chloe Grant got up and counted Michael’s issue on her fingers.

"Do you really trust that much?" Matthew Morgan retorted.

"What?" Chloe Grant didn’t understand what Matthew meant.

He patiently explained, while playing with her hair, "For example, maybe she’s just deceiving you, wanting these three months to get close to me."

"You’re so narcissistic!" Chloe Grant retorted unreservedly.

Then her expression turned serious, "Actually, I have thought about this. But there’s no need for her to do that. Besides, even if she gets close, it’s not like you’ll respond."

Chloe Grant tilted her head, and her last sentence made Matthew Morgan’s hand pause.

Chloe Grant simply sat on his lap.

Matthew Morgan hurriedly reached out to hold her, to prevent her from falling.

Chloe Grant wrapped her arms around his neck, resting her head against him, "No one can take you away."

"Where does your confidence come from?" Matthew Morgan chuckled.

"From you." Chloe Grant answered without a second thought.

This made Matthew laugh even more brightly, holding Chloe Grant tighter.

He lowered his head and kissed her forehead, "Handle it however you like."

"So, you’re agreeing?" Chloe Grant looked up in surprise.

Matthew Morgan nodded.

Chloe Grant tilted her head and smiled.

...

After Chloe Grant left the second floor, George Stern, who was almost ready to jump out of the small room, finally gained his freedom.

He walked out and his first sentence was, "Did you finish applauding for love?"

Matthew Morgan frowned, "What?"

"Applauding for love!"

Matthew Morgan maintained a cold expression, "Speak human language."

"Wishing you a lifelong partnership, I’m going downstairs to find a girl."

George Stern waved and went downstairs, suppressing his laughter.

...

When Chloe Grant went downstairs, Molly Polis and Michael Taylor were in their original spots, looking tense and expectant as they saw her.

Chloe Grant smiled brightly, stood in front of them, and made an "OK" hand gesture.

Chloe Grant sat next to Michael Taylor and whispered, "He’s agreed."

A look of surprise clearly appeared in Michael Taylor’s eyes.

"He agreed?" Molly Polis was still quite surprised.

Chloe Grant thought for a moment, "Sort of. But it’s not that easy, it might take a few days to see results."

Uncle Morgan said he wants to be pleased...

That’s a challenge.

Chloe Grant felt she needed to make a proper plan.

However, what Matthew Morgan said earlier also eased her attitude towards the situation with the crew considerably.

Ultimately, he has the final say, and no one can change that.
