Chapter 395: Chapter 395: Feeling Like He’s Always Been 5
Lucas Morgan left...
But it seems he hasn’t really left.
For the Morgan Group, Mr. Morgan, as the CEO, can still allocate work with other employees and assistants, making decisions on big and small projects within the company.
For the Morgan family, he regularly contacts Isabella Gray and the family.
It’s just...
He doesn’t contact Chloe Grant anymore.
And Chloe Grant has no way to find her.
Several times, in order to wait for Lucas Morgan to call the Morgan family, Chloe Grant would skip classes and stay by Isabella Gray’s side.
She would say, in the name of caring, that she missed Isabella Gray and just wanted to be with her.
Isabella Gray wouldn’t think much of it; she was just happy to have Chloe Grant around.
However...
Chloe Grant calculated that Lucas Morgan would call today, but she couldn’t predict the exact time.
When Chloe Grant returned from the restroom, she saw Isabella Gray on the phone. Just as Chloe walked over, the call had already ended decisively.
Chloe Grant had a feeling, but hearing Isabella Gray say afterward, "Lucas just called back, he seems quite busy lately, said he’d call back later," still pricked her heart.
She sat on the sofa, unable to muster a smile, "What a pity, I was in the restroom just now, otherwise I could have said a few words to Uncle Morgan."
Isabella Gray smiled while peeling an orange, "He asked how you and Lucas Morgan were doing, and I said you both were fine. He’s such a reserved person; even when he cares, he doesn’t express it directly."
Isabella Gray handed the peeled orange to Chloe Grant, "The oranges just hit the market. Knowing you were coming today, I had the butler pick the sweet ones just for you."
Chloe Grant took it, her movements somewhat mechanical.
Now, nothing she eats has any taste.
However, she didn’t want Isabella Gray to notice anything was wrong, so she kept pretending nothing was amiss, maintaining a smile and chatting idly with Isabella Gray.
It was only around four in the afternoon that Chloe Grant left the old house to return to school.
On the way, she even called Ralph Koch.
Before she could speak, Ralph Koch’s impatient voice came through the earpiece, "Oh my dear, I told you, Lucas Morgan won’t contact me at all, so even if you call me a thousand times a day asking where Lucas is, I really don’t know."
Chloe Grant didn’t speak, and the other party continued, "Okay, okay, don’t call again tomorrow, or people might think there’s something between us. I’m not into your type, to be honest!"
After finishing, Ralph Koch directly hung up the phone.
Chloe Grant didn’t show much of a disappointed expression.
These days, she had been calling Ralph Koch, who would say a few words to dismiss her before hanging up.
Reaching the school, Chloe Grant got out of the car and returned to campus.
"Hey... isn’t that the ungrateful brat?"
"Haha, isn’t that the one who’s so casual, always hanging around that broadcasting major Sophia Fraser, and finally framed Sophia Fraser? So disgusting!"
Just stepping into the school, Chloe Grant ran into some people from her department.
She didn’t recognize them, but they knew her!
There’s a forum in school with a post containing photos of Chloe Grant, with the content mostly denouncing her.
It accuses Chloe Grant of being ungrateful, a treacherous person, and so on.
Zoe Graham had told Chloe Grant that because of this post, Zoe even fought with the forum management, but the other side remained adamant, refusing to take the post down even when reported to the school.
And Chloe Grant herself, hadn’t responded to it at all.
She simply because...
