Lucas Hughes dashed into the apartnt building, his hand frantically pressing the elevator button.
Just one more ti, if it doesn’t work out again, it’s going to kill him with anticipation!
Once inside the elevator, watching the numbers change felt interminably long to him.
How could it be only a few floors, yet so slow at this mont.
Finally, watching the elevator stop on the tenth floor, he hurried out to open the door and stepped inside.
Unexpectedly, as he entered the master bedroom, he froze.
Chloe Simpson was staring at him with her eyes wide open.
It’s over! She’s awake!
Nothing can be done!
Damn!
Harry King! Arghhh!
At this mont, Lucas truly wanted to rip Harry King apart.
"Chloe, you’re awake, thank goodness, you really scared ."
Lucas snapped out of it, hurried over, and hugged Chloe tightly.
"My clothes..."
Chloe’s first reaction was naturally that her shirt and skirt had been removed.
"Oh, I took off your clothes. I was checking you for injuries. Did you just wake up?"
Lucas used the excuse he had thought of earlier to placate Chloe.
"Yeah, I just woke up. By the way, how did I get ho? Was it you who brought back?"
Chloe didn’t question anything and recalled what happened before she fainted and asked.
"You were kidnapped, did you know..."
Lucas explained everything to Chloe and also casually asked why she went to find Harry.
"Oh, it was just a coincidence."
Thinking about the ssage Harry sent, Chloe casually made up a reason.
In fact, she didn’t even know why her first instinct was to find an excuse to brush Lucas off, maybe it was because of the past with Alexander Johnson, afraid Lucas might overthink it, feeling uneasy in her heart.
Lucas nodded, not asking any more.
In truth, he wasn’t really concerned about Chloe and Harry’s matters.
After all, he had already decided, once his illness was cured, he would ditch this woman.
For now, as long as Chloe didn’t sleep with Harry or get involved, he didn’t care.
On the contrary, Chloe, feeling guilty, sent Harry a ssage detailing her conversation with Lucas tonight.
Receiving the ssage, Harry paused for a mont, replied with an okay, and also apologized to Chloe, saying today she was kidnapped because of him.
[It’s okay, you didn’t expect such a thing to happen. By the way, in the afternoon when you asked out, what did you want to say?]
Chloe wasn’t too concerned about this matter; she was more curious about what Harry actually wanted to say to her.
[Oh, it’s nothing. Just during our gathering at Nightfall, a friend of mine saw you and wanted your contact info. I didn’t give it to him. But he ntioned he’d find you himself, so I just wanted you to be aware.]
Of course, Harry wouldn’t tell Chloe that all of this was Alexander’s idea, and he just made up a reason.
[Oh, alright, then get so sleep early, good night.]
Chloe nodded and went back to sleep.
anwhile, Harry sat in the car downstairs of Chloe’s building, not leaving at all.
For so reason, all he could think of at that mont was the scene when he first t Chloe.
After sitting for a long ti, he recalled Alexander’s instructions and sent a ssage: [I’ve taken care of things with Lucas Hughes.]
[Good.]
At this mont, Alexander and Jack Woods had just returned to the villa.
Receiving Harry’s ssage, Alexander laughed: "Harry got Lucas settled in just an hour, seems like Chloe really has the charm, n rushing one after another for her!"
"Young master, actually, I think Lucas is truly crossing the line with Miss Simpson, intending to use her to sleep with other n to stimulate himself for treatnt. Such a pervert, shouldn’t we at least warn him?"
Jack knew well his words might provoke Alexander, but he still spoke up.
Having served the young master for so many years, no one knew him better than Jack.
If sothing happens to Miss Simpson... he really feared the young master might regret it in the future!
"Warn him! Of course, warn him! Once the company matters are sorted tomorrow, head to the hospital. Isn’t Lucas seeking stimulation? Let’s give him a chance, bring Chloe to my bed!"
Upon reflecting on everything, Alexander finally understood why Lucas acted that way.
Alright then, if that’s the case, he would help Lucas with his road!
Jack was shocked: "What? Young master? Are you kidding?"
He could hardly believe Alexander would say sothing like that.
