Accidenttal One Night Stand with My Aloof Uncle-Chapter 68: The human heart, it can be hurt...

Lying in bed now, Chloe Grant is even starting to doubt herself.

Am I really that annoying?

Did I do something that made Lucas Morgan completely fed up, so that he thinks it’s no big deal when a few beggars bother me?

Was I wrong to confront Lily Grant, the real culprit?

Chloe Grant covers her eyes in distress.

Just then, her phone rings inappropriately.

Chloe Grant doesn’t feel like answering the phone.

But when she looks at it...

It’s a string of numbers, indicating it’s a call from abroad.

Either father or mother.

Chloe Grant takes a deep breath, calming her emotions.

Her parents have called much less this year, and Chloe Grant doesn’t want to miss any calls from them.

She takes a deep breath, then answers the call, "Hello?"

Her tone is kept as light as possible.

"Chloe Grant." It’s her father’s voice.

Hearing him call her by her full name makes Chloe’s heart skip a beat.

This call isn’t to ask about her or to keep in touch.

But rather...

"Why are you always at odds with Lily?"

To blame her.

Already feeling bitter, Chloe Grant bursts into tears at her father’s reproachful tone.

Fortunately, since it’s over the phone, her father can’t see her current expression.

Chloe Grant doesn’t respond.

Her father’s impatient voice comes through again—

"Chloe Grant, you have to know, I’m busy every day. Can you let me worry less, can you stop causing trouble? Can you curb the temper you’ve developed living with the Morgan family over the years?

I really don’t want to call the Grant side and hear other people blame me."

"Blame me for not teaching my daughter well! My daughter forgets her roots after living a good life and bullies her own family! It’s embarrassing for me, and others think it’s all my fault, do you understand?"

By the end, her father is extremely impatient.

Someone seems to be calling him, and he repeatedly says "Wait a moment."

"I hope you remember my words. I’ve already paid back the ten thousand dollars you tricked out of Lily. Chloe Grant, I hope you seriously reflect on whether your behavior is appropriate.

I don’t want to hear more news of my daughter bullying others the next time I call. I’m busy, let’s leave it at that. I’ll call you back."

The call ends with Chloe Grant hardly saying anything, it’s mostly her father’s impatient and hurried lecturing.

Chloe Grant puts the phone aside, wanting to laugh, but tears uncontrollably fall.

Dad...

Do you know that the human heart is fragile and can be hurt...

Even when faced with family, it can be hurt and not heal...

Finally unable to bear it, Chloe pulls the blanket over her head, crying silently, in pain.

She doesn’t dare make a sound, afraid Matthew Morgan will hear.

The phone thrown aside rings again, irritating Chloe, who has no desire to answer it.

But...

What if it’s her mother?

Will there be comfort?

Still harboring hope, Chloe cannot help but lift the blanket and pick up the phone, constantly wiping her tears, controlling her voice.

But...

When she sees the caller ID on the screen, her expression immediately darkens.

She throws the phone aside, refusing to answer the call.

But the caller seems determined.

One missed call, and they call again.

They won’t stop until Chloe Grant can’t stand it anymore!
