Accidenttal One Night Stand with My Aloof Uncle-Chapter 77: Once You Choose to Give Up, Do Not Cling to the Past

As soon as Chloe Grant entered the house, Lady Morgan, Isabella Gray, who was sitting on the sofa, looked up and saw her. She reached out her hand, "Chloe, come over here, I have something to ask you."

Her expression was quite serious.

"Okay." Chloe Grant walked over and sat beside her.

Isabella Gray didn’t beat around the bush and directly asked, "Lucas’s new girlfriend is your cousin, right?"

"Yes." Chloe Grant nodded.

Isabella Gray asked again, "The reason she got to know Lucas is that she contacted him behind your back using your phone number, isn’t it?"

Chloe Grant shook her head, "No, I gave her the contact. At that time, I was working a part-time job outside, it was raining heavily, and my phone was dead, so I used her phone to contact my uncle."

Chloe Grant spoke honestly.

Thinking about this matter, she still felt a sharp pain in her heart.

"Did you know that the two continued to contact each other frequently?" Isabella Gray’s expression remained very serious.

Mr. Morgan couldn’t stand it and spoke up, "Don’t be so serious, you’re scaring Chloe."

"I’m not being serious; I am furious to my core." Isabella Gray directly retorted, "Previously, when Matthew sent over Lily Grant’s information, I thought she was too ordinary. But again, ordinary is fine as long as she’s a good girl. But this girl is clearly not innocent at heart!"

Chloe Grant was bewildered, the only thing she understood was: the Morgan family’s elders had a very bad impression of Lily Grant, and it had something to do with Matthew Morgan.

"And you too, your cousin does this behind your back, making you suffer, yet you didn’t think to tell your family?" Isabella Gray shifted the focus to Chloe Grant, speaking in a blaming tone but really feeling heartache for her.

"Matthew told us that Lily Grant stepped on you, using you as an excuse to contact Lucas, this person is clearly not sincere."

Matthew Morgan didn’t say much, he only said, "She contacted Lucas behind Chloe’s back."

Though he spoke lightly, Isabella Gray understood immediately.

After all, with the size of the Morgan family and Isabella Gray having been the lady of the house for decades, what hasn’t she seen? These little schemes, how could she not understand?

And what she hated most in her life were people with deep calculations and scheming ways.

Chloe Grant didn’t know how to respond, so she simply remained silent.

Isabella Gray was so upset she had a headache, and she went on and on with Chloe about her dissatisfaction with Lucas.

But most of all, she complained that Lucas wasn’t helping with Morgan Group, persistently pursuing something like gaming esports, how disappointing!

Mr. Morgan also expressed his dissatisfaction about this.

Chloe Grant listened, but in her heart, she felt sorry for him.

From childhood to adulthood, all of Lucas’s brilliance had been overshadowed by Matthew Morgan.

Everyone talked about how outstanding the Morgan family’s eldest son was, but no one ever saw how equally outstanding he was.

A feeling of heartache began to rise in Chloe, but she quickly suppressed it, reminding herself not to think too much.

Since she had already given up, she would not hold on!

...

It was past nine in the evening when the driver from the old mansion finally brought Chloe Grant back.

Just as she opened the door and was about to turn on the light—

She felt someone grab her arm, and soon she was forcibly dragged into the house! frёeωebɳovel.com

By her ear, she heard the sound of the door being slammed shut, and before Chloe could react, she felt a chill on her neck!

"Where’s the money?" a sharp, thin man’s voice rang out.

Chloe felt a sharp pain on her neck.

A burglar!

Her scalp went numb instantly, and her mind went blank!

"What are you spacing out for, take out all the money for me, or I’ll make you die right here!"

The thief grew anxious seeing her non-response...
