Accidenttal One Night Stand with My Aloof Uncle-Chapter 658 - 668: Even Wishing You Well, You Still Force Me to Give 8

Chloe Grant didn’t want to appear so fragile, filled with worries and hesitation, so... before her emotions completely collapsed, Chloe pushed Matthew Morgan away forcefully.

The latter stepped back several paces.

Chloe stubbornly wiped the tears from her face, "You’re overthinking. I never intended to take revenge on you, I just want to live seriously!

Find someone suitable and be together joyfully."

Chloe looked up, staring at Matthew Morgan, "Besides, he promised me he wouldn’t hide anything from me, no matter what it is!"

This sentence was clearly targeted, piercing Matthew Morgan, making his body tremble.

Chloe averted her gaze, bypassed Matthew Morgan, and walked straight inside.

"Do you think I would let you marry someone else?"

Just as Chloe was about to step onto the stairs, she heard Matthew Morgan’s voice, and her movements halted.

Even though he said it lightly, it was still filled with his usual domineering tone.

Proclaiming, what belongs to him, would he allow someone else to have it?

Chloe’s initially calm emotions flared up in anger because of what he said.

"That’s your problem!" she retorted stubbornly, and without looking back, she walked inside the house, slamming the door shut!

Her body leaned against the door, and she squatted down weakly.

As soon as she squatted down, Chloe’s eyes were momentarily dazzled by the light from the floor-to-ceiling window outside, and she realized that Matthew could easily see inside the room if he just turned slightly.

Without thinking much, Chloe quickly stood up and hurried inside the house.

The next day, Chloe developed a high fever.

Lying in bed, she was in a daze.

She could tell someone was taking care of her, but Chloe was too sleepy and felt that the person was familiar enough for her to let down all her defenses.

Sunday, less than 24 hours before the registration day.

Chloe had a high fever all day yesterday, and though she wasn’t fully recovered today, she was alert.

Jacob Lee had called quite a bit yesterday, but Chloe had been in a dazed state. She knew he called but just glanced at the phone and then tossed it aside without replying.

Chloe found Jacob Lee’s messages, which were constantly inquiring about her situation, and he even came to her doorstep, but Lucas Morgan told him to leave.

The last message was: So, have you changed your mind?

Chloe licked her lips, feeling a bit dry. She replied to Jacob: No, I’ve been sick and was out of it all along...

Before she could finish typing, Chloe couldn’t continue.

Her throat was too dry.

Chloe casually turned her head and noticed the water on the nightstand. She reached out and touched it; it was somewhat warm.

Chloe picked it up and drank.

She really disliked plain water, opting either for cold or hot water. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

After half a cup, Chloe’s throat finally felt better.

She deleted all the words she had just typed to Jacob and dialed his number instead.

The call was answered shortly.

"Hello?"

"It’s me," Chloe said, realizing her voice was still hoarse. Speaking made her throat itch, and she couldn’t help but cough.

"I had a high fever yesterday and was out of it. I saw your messages and wanted to reply, but then drifted off again," Chloe patiently explained.

Jacob Lee paused for a moment before speaking, "Do you need me to come over... No, you don’t need me.

Let’s meet tomorrow at eight in front of the registration office, okay?"

"Sure," Chloe replied.

"Alright then, rest well. If it’s really not possible tomorrow, we can..."

"No need, I think tomorrow will be just fine."
