Chapter 398: Chapter 298: Feeling Like He’s Always Been 8
The school wants to handle it privately because if the matter spreads, it would damage the school’s reputation.
Besides, when Sophia Fraser was taken to the hospital, the school quickly learned it’s nothing serious, just a minor cut.
But the issue is...
Sophia Fraser is the eldest daughter of the Fraser family.
The Fraser family, regardless of their recent decline over the past two years, is a prestigious family in this royal city, with their connections and status intact.
After receiving the news, the Fraser family immediately reported it to the police, instructing them to show no mercy.
However...
Just as the Fraser family finished briefing the police, the chief personally came out and respectfully escorted Chloe Grant out.
"Miss Grant, this was just an accident, and you’re also a victim. We will handle it properly," the chief said with a smile.
Chloe Grant found the police’s attitude quite strange.
When she was brought in, she overheard some officers saying that the Fraser family insisted on ruining her!
Even if intentional harm was not established, they wanted Chloe Grant to suffer during the interrogation.
But... the chief released her and even said this...
"Did someone contact you?" Chloe Grant pursued the question.
At that moment, she could only think of one possibility!
And thinking about this possibility made Chloe Grant tense up, she subconsciously stepped forward, "Someone contacted you, didn’t they?"
"And that person’s last name is Morgan!"
Chloe Grant nearly shouted with certainty, stepping closer to the chief as she spoke.
The chief retreated step by step until he couldn’t back up anymore, hurriedly gesturing for Chloe Grant not to approach.
"Miss Grant, our police force is just doing our duty. Although someone was hospitalized from this conflict, someone contacted us claiming the other party started it first, and you were also injured. We’re just handling it normally; no one contacted us!"
"Did Grandpa Morgan contact you?"
Chloe Grant ignored the chief’s words and asked directly.
Of course, she couldn’t be certain. Matthew Morgan wouldn’t even see her, how could he possibly know about her situation?
But still...
Too many similar things have happened before, with him always silently helping from the shadows.
At this moment, Chloe Grant was convinced someone had contacted the chief to release her.
And this person... Chloe Grant could only think of Matthew Morgan now.
If it were before, she would surely think of Lucas Morgan.
"Miss Grant, you’re truly joking. How could Grandpa Morgan possibly contact us?" The chief smiled and countered.
"Are you sure?" Chloe Grant was still unwilling to give up.
"Chloe."
Someone called from the doorway.
The voice was very familiar. At that moment, Chloe Grant felt her whole heart tighten, her eyes brightened up, but as she turned her head quickly... her gaze instantly dimmed.
"Chloe, are you okay?" Lucas Morgan walked up the steps, carefully checking Chloe Grant’s condition.
Chloe Grant shook her head a bit stiffly.
She thought... it was Uncle Morgan.
A deep sense of disappointment completely engulfed Chloe Grant, as if all her strength suddenly vanished.
Her nose tingled with the urge to cry, but she forcibly held it back.
"Young Master Morgan, regarding today’s issue, we will certainly investigate thoroughly, please rest assured!"
The chief exhaled a long breath when he saw Lucas Morgan.
"Thank you," Lucas Morgan replied, "if there’s nothing else, I’ll take her away first."
"Of course, of course," the chief answered promptly.
Lucas Morgan nodded down, "Let’s go."
He led Chloe Grant away, and she followed as if soulless.
But halfway through, Chloe Grant suddenly stopped. She abruptly turned her head...
