CHAPTER 442: CHAPTER 442: CHLOE AWKWARDLY CHATS WITH UNCLE MORGAN 2

Jodie just watched helplessly as the atmosphere between Chloe Grant and Matthew Morgan turned into... silence after Chloe stopped talking to the little toddler!

Silence, silence! It was always silence!

Jodie looked at Chloe speechlessly, urging her to continue... chatting!

Chloe wanted to cry, but she didn’t give up.

Because she knew the problem between her and Matthew wasn’t about love or not loving.

It was...

Even getting along was a barrier.

Chloe’s awe and fear towards Matthew were ingrained, deep in her bones.

And Matthew had such a cold and reticent nature.

So, talking between them was really awkward...

Chloe sighed helplessly, but silently clenched her fist, like a warrior refusing to admit defeat.

She looked at Matthew’s profile, "Uncle Morgan... You usually like..." The words suddenly stopped because Matthew was now turning to look at her.

His gaze was calm, yet it made her feel flustered inside.

Chloe, nervous, blurted out, "What to feed Loren!"

"Dad always makes me eat tasteless stuff, it’s not good!"

Matthew didn’t respond, and the little toddler just muttered.

Jodie watched silently, thinking that using the toddler as a conversation topic was a good move for Chloe.

But...

This chatterbox of a child always answered Matthew’s questions.

Then Chloe would get carried away, chatting with the toddler instead... not getting to talk to Matthew at all.

Jodie figured that the most urgent task now was to take the toddler away.

But...

Matthew wouldn’t even let Chloe hold the little toddler longer, let alone take Loren away.

Jodie’s eyes were turning, she had to come up with a plan.

She thought and finally set her gaze on Isabella Gray...

Jodie stood up and headed for the kitchen.

When Chloe saw Jodie leave, she immediately got nervous.

Jodie’s presence was like giving her courage, once she left... Chloe lost her confidence.

And once again silence fell between Chloe and Matthew.

Matthew was naturally cold, and with Chloe not taking the initiative to speak, there was no hope he would start talking.

Not long after Jodie went to the kitchen, Isabella came out and took away the plate the toddler had been holding.

She took it suddenly, the toddler looked shocked, eyes wide open.

Watched as the plate was placed on the coffee table, and then he was picked up by Isabella.

"I’ll feed him first."

Isabella carried the child away, and Matthew had nothing to say.

She led the toddler to the dining room, and Jodie, who had walked away earlier, didn’t come back, so the living room was left with Matthew sitting on the same sofa.

Chloe was visibly more nervous than before.

Her instinct was to run...

But it was just a thought.

Jodie and Ralph had both told her that as Matthew had already taken so many steps, she should take a few steps forward no matter what.

Chloe calculated in her mind, "Well... Uncle Morgan..."

"Is there anything you need me to handle?"

Before Chloe could finish her sentence, Matthew spoke.

"Huh?" Chloe looked confused, "What?"

"Have you encountered any trouble that needs me to handle, just say it." Matthew, for once patient, repeated.

"I, I don’t have any..." Chloe shook her head.

She didn’t understand why Matthew suddenly said that.

"Company matters? Are you being made difficult?" Matthew asked directly, as if he didn’t hear Chloe’s "no."

"If you feel it’s hard, I’ll arrange for you to work under the Morgan Group umbrella."
