Chloe Grant was still struggling, her phone unconsciously slipping from her hand. She instinctively pulled the blanket and turned over, continuing to sleep.
But...
Wasn't that voice just now Lucas Morgan?
Chloe Grant suddenly opened her eyes.
The next second, she turned over quickly, fumbled for her phone, and checked the call log. It was indeed from Lucas Morgan.
Her heart started to beat fast, recalling last night's entangled scenes, her face blushed uncontrollably, body heated, legs weak...
Lucas Morgan was in such a hurry to find her, could it be... that he wanted to confirm their relationship?
After all, they had already had that kind of relationship.
"I've always wanted to take care of you."
The words from last night were still ringing in her ears, making Chloe Grant both shy and joyful, deeply moved, feeling that her affection wasn't unreciprocated, Lucas Morgan was interested in her.
It's just that their so-called uncle-niece relationship was a real issue.
No matter!
As long as he cared for her, and she had feelings for him, they could be together!
Chloe Grant threw off the blanket and got out of bed; she was so anxious that her legs went weak and she fell to the ground.
Last night was really too crazy.
Chloe Grant shook her head, smiled bitterly, adjusted herself before standing up again, then went to the bathroom, washed up, picked her favorite outfit from the walk-in closet, applied light makeup, made herself look pretty before leaving.
As soon as she stepped out the door, she saw the red Ferrari convertible parked over there.
The sun was bright today, making the car's color even more vivid. But it couldn't compare to the brilliance of the man inside.
He turned his head, the diamond glints on his sunglasses refracting light.
He held a cigarette half-bitten in his mouth, grinning devilishly, beckoning Chloe Grant with a finger.
Chloe Grant was utterly bewitched, walked over, opened the car door, and sat inside.
She was still very nervous, sitting properly, not knowing where to place her fingers.
Lucas gave her a glance, said nothing, started the car, and left the villa.
As the car hit the road, neither of them spoke. Although Chloe Grant sat properly, she couldn't help but sneak glances at Lucas.
Lucas seemed to know that Chloe Grant was sneaking glances at him, the corners of his mouth arched deeper, reaching out to ruffle Chloe Grant's hair, "Don't worry, I won't sell you. After all..."
A red light at the intersection, the car stopped.
Chloe Grant's eyes suddenly brightened, her mind already filling in the blank in Lucas's pause, after all, you...
"Selling you isn't worth anything and a waste of time."
Chloe Grant's previously expectant gaze instantly dimmed.
Lucas withdrew his hand, raised the corners of his mouth, laughing wantonly.
Chloe Grant was angry, finally shouting after a long pause, "Lucas Morgan!"
She thought he would say something moving!
Bad guy!
Lucas turned his head, looking at the agitated Chloe Grant, removed the cigarette butt, threw it outside, "Oh, I forgot to say, taking you out for dinner tonight. Also..."
He deliberately paused, squinting at Chloe Grant, yet the car had already restarted, driving out.
Lucas dropped a bomb with "He's back," then turned and looked ahead.
Chloe Grant, at the first second, didn't understand Lucas's words. It took a few seconds, but once she grasped the meaning, her eyes widened in shock, as if she had received some terrifying news.
In the next moment, she instinctively straightened her posture.
Her heart began pounding wildly.
This was completely different from the previous nervousness around Lucas, this time it was pure and utter tension and fear.
