CHAPTER 278: CHAPTER 278: LINGERING FEELINGS 8

While in Matthew Morgan’s office, Chloe Grant wasn’t able to successfully hear James Heady talk about S’s subsequent matters.

Later, when Matthew Morgan went to a meeting, Chloe Grant found out from the secretary that James was in the office, so she went directly to find him.

"James~"

Chloe Grant drifted into the office, looking at him with a cheeky smile.

But James looked at her with a face full of caution, his scalp tingling, "What do you want? If you have something to say, say it properly!"

"I just heard you mention that S, who is that person?" Chloe directly asked.

"Mr. Morgan said, regarding S’s matters, you could ask him directly."

He’s not a fool; how could he possibly tell Chloe about S’s matters.

"I already asked him, and I didn’t understand what he said. You know I don’t dare to ask too much." Chloe sat in her chair, feeling very frustrated.

"Trust me, he’s quite patient with you," James sincerely said.

Chloe sneered, "You’re blind, where is he good?"

As for evaluating his own boss, James wouldn’t do it, so he could only smile and nod, then continue to look at the files.

Chloe bit her lip, calculating in her mind how to continue probing.

After thinking for a long time, she finally spoke, "If he stays here, won’t it cause a lot of trouble for Uncle Morgan?"

"How could Mr. Morgan let him stay here, he had already planned for him to flee in panic long ago." James didn’t understand Chloe’s logic.

"Fled?"

Chloe was shocked, sitting up from her chair, her voice a bit loud, "So you mean, this person S has long been out of this city, left a long time ago?"

"The night three days ago," James replied.

He was a bit surprised to see Chloe so agitated.

"Three days ago?"

Chloe recalled, it was the day Uncle Morgan told her to stay home and then went out on some business.

So it means...

From that night on, S was no longer there, and the threat to Chloe was gone.

But not only did Matthew Morgan not tell her, he also still requested that she stay by his side.

What are his true intentions?

Keeping her as a stand-in for a past love, Matthew Morgan, you’re truly scheming!

Chloe’s entire face changed, just feeling the rage in her chest, burning to explode!

Too much!

Too excessive!

"Chloe..."

James quickly stood up from the desk, realizing he might have misspoken when he saw Chloe’s drastically changing expression!

...

At this time, Matthew Morgan, who had just finished a meeting, was instructing the secretary to order lunch.

"The one from yesterday, with the exact same dishes." Matthew Morgan instructed.

Chloe had enjoyed the meal yesterday more than at other times.

And when she eats something delicious, she likes to eat it for several days straight.

"Okay, President." The secretary took notes.

"Uncle Morgan."

As Matthew Morgan just pushed open the office door, Chloe Grant’s voice called from behind.

He was surprised how the person originally in the office had gone out.

"Where did you go?" He waved for Chloe Grant to come over.

It was just a normal inquiry, nothing angry about it.

"I just had a chat with James and accidentally found out something." Chloe Grant stood beside him, her expression serious.

Matthew Morgan frowned.

"I only just found out that S has long gone."

Matthew Morgan reached out, grabbed Chloe Grant’s wrist, pulling her into the office and then closed the door.

Chloe Grant forcefully shook off his hand, looking at Matthew Morgan with some hostility, "So, how long do you plan for me to keep following you?"
