At this mont, Lucas only realized that Chloe Grant peeling an orange, and removing the white fibers, was actually not too bad.
"Why did he suddenly go on a business trip?" Lucas muttered.
"Because there was an urgent matter at the company, he’ll be back in a few days," Thea Yates answered simply.
Chloe Grant glanced at her.
When Thea Yates answered the question about Matthew Morgan, Chloe Grant had a very intuitive feeling... No, to be precise, everyone present had the sa feeling.
It felt like Thea Yates was representing Matthew Morgan as a family mber.
Thea Yates lowered her head, ruffled the little guy’s hair in her arms, and smiled, "When he cos back, we’ll go get the marriage certificate."
After Thea Yates finished talking, Chloe Grant suddenly raised her head and widened her eyes, completely astonished.
Marriage certificate?
"Marriage certificate? You and my brother are getting married?" Lucas vocalized Chloe Grant’s thoughts on her behalf.
Thea Yates nodded, "Yes, we’ve already discussed it when he cos back."
When Thea Yates spoke, it was in that calm, slow manner, narrating without haste or urgency, "After all, Loren is already this big, we can’t keep this up. However, we don’t plan to have a wedding. When the ti cos, after we get married, whether we move to Country Y or stay in the Imperial City, we’ll discuss it then."
"This matter, are you sure my brother told you this?" Lucas was completely stunned.
He couldn’t believe what Thea Yates was saying.
But...
The way Thea Yates calmly narrated didn’t seem like she was lying or deliberately fabricating anything.
Chloe Grant’s face was already terribly pale at this point.
She had no way to react.
Uncle Morgan wanted to marry her, and even go to Country Y with her.
Then...
What about her?
What kind of role is she, or rather, what kind of existence is she in Matthew Morgan’s heart?
Why...
At noon, he still held her and softly told her to wait for his return.
Yet, he hadn’t returned, and she had to face such a scenario.
And at this ti, even George Stern, who originally intended to tease Chloe Grant, now wore a serious expression, a bit solemn.
He shifted his posture.
"How did you guys... et, or rather, how did Loren co about?" George Stern asked seemingly casually.
After asking, he glanced at Chloe Grant.
This was what Chloe Grant most wanted to ask.
"It’s very simple for us. Five years ago, Matthew was recovering from an illness abroad because of his health, and I was the nurse taking care of him, so we developed feelings over ti, and then Loren ca along."
Thea Yates explained the story in just a few sentences.
Yet each word, each syllable, felt like a razor-sharp blade stabbing into Chloe Grant’s heart, causing her imnse pain.
"So simple," George Stern replied.
Thea Yates laughed, "Two people growing feelings over ti, loving each other, and having a love child, does it need to be complicated?"
"Unfortunately, previously he had to return ho, while I had to stay in Country Y, leading to a split. We said harsh things, nearly severing ties." Thea Yates sighed slightly, but then smiled again, "However, no matter how many years passed, I couldn’t forget him. Since he wouldn’t step back, I decided to step back."
As Thea Yates recounted these past events, her eyes were tender, she lowered her head, and stroked Loren’s delicate little face, "So our family of three can always be together.
Whether we stay in the Imperial City or Country A, our family of three won’t separate."
