Chapter 599: Chapter 609: The Morgan Family’s Young Daughter Comes of Age 9

Chloe Grant hasn’t been able to sleep for several nights now.

It’s been like this for many nights.

She can’t sleep before three in the morning.

Sometimes she thinks a lot, to the point of heartache, anger, or sadness.

Other times, she thinks of nothing at all.

Unfortunately, no matter when, sleep evades her at night.

Chloe Grant sat at the dressing table, applying the final setting powder, successfully covering her haggard complexion.

Makeup is truly magical; just a few strokes, and she looks full of vigor.

Her phone vibrated.

It was a message from Jacob Lee saying he’d be at her doorstep in ten minutes.

This was something Chloe Grant specifically requested.

She asked Jacob Lee to text her when he was close to her house so she could have time to prepare.

Ten minutes isn’t nearly enough for her dawdling nature to have breakfast.

Chloe Grant decided not to eat.

As Jacob Lee arrived, a message came in from Lucas Morgan.

It roughly said that breakfast was ready, but she hadn’t come over yet, and if she didn’t come soon, she’d be late for work.

Chloe Grant got into the car and immediately replied to Lucas Morgan: I’m already on my way to the company.

Lucas Morgan replied: So you’re not having breakfast?

Chloe Grant: No, I’ll eat at the company.

"Um..."

Chloe Grant was so focused on replying to Lucas Morgan’s message that she hadn’t noticed Jacob Lee beside her.

When he spoke up, Chloe Grant finally realized he was there and looked up, "What?"

Jacob Lee smiled tactfully and pointed to the car door, "The seatbelt..."

"Ah, sorry." Chloe Grant realized and quickly pulled over the seatbelt, buckling it, "Sorry, I was busy texting as soon as I got in the car and forgot about this."

It wasn’t that she forgot, but she never really had the awareness.

The past times she got in a car, Matthew Morgan would buckle her seatbelt, and she never thought about it.

After fastening it, Chloe Grant turned her head, smiling apologetically, "I’ll be more mindful next time."

The car was already slowly making its way to the road.

While turning, Jacob Lee glanced at Chloe Grant and said, "I worry that in case of any accidents or minor collisions, if you’re not wearing a seatbelt and get hurt, that wouldn’t be good."

"I understand, thank you, I’ll be careful next time."

When Jacob Lee turned to look at Chloe Grant, she was staring out the window in a daze.

Heavy with thoughts, filled with sorrow.

These eight words were all Jacob Lee could think of.

Chloe Grant wasn’t someone who could effectively hide her emotions, even though she often tried hard to suppress her unhappiness and sadness.

But, eventually, it would show.

Like now.

Because of the seatbelt, she thought of that man, and her heart started to ache again.

Jacob Lee wouldn’t probe or disturb her.

The rest of the journey was silent.

When they reached the company entrance, Chloe Grant never imagined she would see Matthew Morgan and Ralph Koch.

"I’ll head off first; I need to go to another province at noon, so I can’t join you for lunch." Jacob Lee didn’t look toward Matthew Morgan’s side.

Not sure if he didn’t see them or intentionally chose to ignore them.

"Okay, take care on the road," Chloe Grant responded.

After Jacob Lee’s car drove away, Ralph Koch approached.

"That brat, he’s even setting his sights on you." Ralph Koch muttered. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Chloe Grant was surprised, "You know each other?"

As she spoke, she couldn’t help but glance at Matthew Morgan.

After one look, she immediately turned her gaze away...
