"!"
Chloe Simpson was still stunned there, she couldn’t believe that Alexander Johnson would suddenly relent.
Originally, she thought that she wouldn’t be able to take Lucas Hughes away today.
Why did Alexander suddenly decide to release Lucas?
"Get out!"
While she was in a daze, Alexander’s roar ca through again.
"Miss Simpson, please co with ."
Jack Woods hurriedly rushed over and took Chloe to the basent.
In the basent, Lucas Hughes had been imprisoned long enough to lose all hope.
He lay limply in the corner of the basent.
Even when he heard footsteps, he didn’t react.
In the basent, he didn’t know the ti, couldn’t tell day from night, and only heard footsteps when als were delivered downstairs.
Lucas thought it was just the delivery person and didn’t even lift his head.
"Lucas, are you okay? Sorry, I’m late."
It wasn’t until Chloe, following Henry Taylor, walked into the basent, saw Lucas’ miserable state, and ran over to speak, that Lucas finally lifted his head.
"Chloe? Is it really you? Can you save ?"
At this mont, Chloe was truly Lucas Hughes’ only lifeline.
He couldn’t believe it and thought he was dreaming.
"Yes, it’s , Lucas. I’m here, I’m here to take you out."
Chloe quickly spoke.
"...Okay, I’ll go with you, let’s go ho."
Lucas’s mouth opened and closed several tis as if he had a lot to say, but in the end, he rely managed to utter one sentence and then left with Chloe.
After Jack Woods sent Chloe and Lucas away, he received a ssage from a servant and hurried back to Alexander Johnson’s study.
"Eldest Young Master, Madam will arrive soon, and the Old Master is with her."
"Alright, I know."
Alexander Johnson still stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, smoking a cigarette, taking a drag every now and then.
Outside the villa, as soon as Chloe and Lucas left the villa, they took a cab back.
"Chloe, thank you, if you hadn’t co to get , I might have died at Alexander Johnson’s hands this ti..."
On the way, Lucas kept talking, gripping Chloe’s hand tightly.
He originally thought that after he took the money from Gabriella Dyer, everything between him and Chloe was over.
Unexpectedly, Alexander would do sothing so terrifying.
It seed that he and Chloe must continue to be entangled.
No matter if he wanted to or not, this woman was still very useful; he couldn’t let go at any cost.
"No, Lucas, I definitely won’t let anything happen to you."
Chloe didn’t think too much and just returned Lucas’s grip tightly when she heard his words.
Besides, Chloe felt a deep unease in her heart.
With such an incident today, Alexander could do it once, he could do it again—who knows what else might happen in the future.
It seed that she needed to be vigilant and careful in the coming days.
After going back with Lucas, Chloe made many plans that night, preparing for Alexander Johnson.
Unexpectedly, in the following days, Alexander not only didn’t cause trouble but seed to disappear from the world and didn’t even co to the hospital.
Chloe couldn’t understand why, but it was undoubtedly the best outco for her and Lucas.
She could live a plain life as she did before.
She hoped that the days to co would remain so peaceful.
However, while things had cald down on Alexander’s side, Lucas’s side beca restless again.
One night, as soon as she got off work, Lucas sent a ssage asking her to join him for dinner.
Without giving it much thought, she went.
Only to find out that it was a romantic candlelit dinner, with a proposal.
"Chloe, let’s remarry, shall we?"
