Chapter 385: Chapter 385: All These Years, He Has Been Behind Her 5
Images flooded Chloe Grant’s mind.
Over the years, she had been living a carefree life with peace of mind.
Whenever something happened, there was always someone there to handle it for her, someone to comfort her and give her confidence.
She always thought it was Lucas Morgan doing all this, so she was utterly devoted to him.
But...
At this very moment, Chloe finally understood that there was someone who was always, always by her side, enduring all the pain that she should have borne.
Quietly sacrificing for her, yet never uttering a word.
All these years... he was always behind her.
But she...
Had never turned around to truly discern him.
"Chloe..."
Lucas Morgan crouched down, his face full of heartache, "He didn’t want to tell you at the time because he was afraid you’d feel guilty."
"What if he had died back then?" Chloe suddenly let go of his hand.
She didn’t care about how disheveled she looked from crying as she reached out to grab Lucas Morgan’s arm, "If he really had an accident at that time, you would have kept it from me, saying he was always abroad and would never come back?"
Lucas furrowed his eyebrows; he never expected Chloe Grant to ask such a question.
He moved his lips but didn’t say anything for a long time.
After about ten seconds, Lucas Morgan sighed, "Before he fell unconscious back then, he told me to immediately send him abroad, prohibiting anyone from knowing.
At that time, my father had just completed heart stent surgery, and the turmoil within the Morgan Group had just been quelled. If news of his accident got out, it would certainly be another chaos for Morgan Group, and at that time..."
As the conversation reached this point, Lucas suddenly smiled bitterly, "You also know, the Morgan family wouldn’t have another Matthew Morgan. Lucas Morgan couldn’t become Matthew Morgan, and by then the Morgan Group would definitely collapse."
"I don’t want to hear these!" Chloe Grant shouted directly, "I don’t understand them, nor do I want to hear. I just want to know, when he was sent abroad for treatment, did he mention me, did he say anything?"
"Yes." Lucas Morgan nodded, "He said..."
Chloe Grant watched Lucas intently, "What did he say?"
Lucas frowned, licking his naturally pale lips.
Chloe’s impatience flared up, "Stop pausing, just say it straight, will you?"
Every second Lucas paused now was a torment for her!
Lucas sighed and finally sat directly on the ground casually.
"Before he was saved, the first words he said were not about the company, not about his family, but about you!
He said, don’t let you know he was the one who drove up. If he doesn’t survive, just tell you he’s abroad and won’t come back."
Chloe Grant sat down weakly, lifting her head, allowing the tears to fall.
"If he doesn’t survive, just stay abroad and not come back..."
Chloe cried out of guilt, but even more because...
"He really knows me. If he’s always abroad, not only wouldn’t I look for him, I’d even feel relieved."
Chloe cried because she felt heartless, felt cruel and sinister.
While she was excitedly celebrating with Lily Grant about his departure abroad, he was struggling for his life overseas.
While she was relieved that he wasn’t there to control her and thus could indulge in games wildly, he was suffering in pain!
While she was carelessly enjoying her small, indifferent and happy life, he was undergoing rehabilitation time and again...
