Chapter 25 - Chapter 25: Not Daring to Make a Fuss in Front of Him

Most of the time, Matthew Morgan was working, and there were a lot of phone calls, all about company matters that Chloe Grant couldn't understand.

He had always been a workaholic and particularly busy; Chloe Grant knew this from the moment she first met Matthew Morgan.

She still remembered, at that time she was only ten, because Isabella Gray took her father as a godson, she changed from a left-behind child to a little princess.

At that time, her parents were abroad, and she lived with her grandparents at her uncle's house, which was Lily Grant's home.

Chloe Grant also remembered, the reason for taking a godson was because that year, after Isabella Gray had a car accident, she was bedridden for a long time. Later, Mr. Morgan's mother somehow found a master, who gave Isabella Gray a birth chart, saying that this was her destined benefactor, and the only way to keep the benefactor was to become inseparable family.

The birth chart naturally belonged to Chloe Grant's father, and because of this, her parents, who had been struggling in business abroad, saw things improve bit by bit with the help of the Morgan family.

Because Chloe Grant stubbornly refused to go abroad, Isabella Gray took a liking to her at first sight and arranged for her to live in the villa area where Matthew Morgan and Lucas Morgan were.

She ended up living there for about ten years.

Three years ago, before Matthew Morgan went abroad, he lived in the villa at the innermost part of the Imperial Palace Villa Community.

Although the location was inside, the scenery was better than outside, and it was quiet, which suited someone like Matthew Morgan perfectly.

Because of this, Chloe Grant had more interactions with these two uncles.

At that time, Chloe Grant's impression of Matthew Morgan was only two things: intimidating and a workaholic.

Of course, that's still the same now.

...

The three-hour journey, though long, passed quickly.

Though short, Chloe Grant's butt was numb from sitting.

When they arrived at the hotel entrance, the driver fetched the luggage, and Matthew Morgan took two suitcases, letting the driver leave.

He carried the luggage with Chloe Grant, heading into the hotel to check in.

Chloe Grant followed behind, like a child being led by an elder, not daring to breathe too loudly.

After the check-in was done, the attendant led them to their respective rooms.

They were adjacent.

"Have a good rest. Call me if you need anything," Matthew Morgan instructed as the attendant opened Chloe Grant's room door.

Chloe Grant nodded, but the next second she looked up quickly, as if summoning her courage, "Uncle Morgan..."

She wasn't that bold in front of Matthew Morgan, and after stuttering for a bit, her voice dropped, "Could we put down our luggage and go bungee jumping immediately..."

By the end, her voice was almost inaudible.

If it were Lucas Morgan in front of her, she would have pushed the suitcase aside, urged Lucas Morgan to put the luggage away quickly, and then dragged him off for bungee jumping without even asking.

But...

Matthew Morgan was, after all, not Lucas Morgan.

Lucas Morgan would let her mess around, let her do as she pleased.

But Matthew Morgan was different.

Chloe Grant didn't have the courage and believed that Matthew Morgan didn't have the patience or inclination to let her be unruly.

"Forget it..." Before Matthew Morgan could respond, Chloe Grant backed down.

She turned around, pushing the luggage into her room.

"Wait for me at the door," Matthew Morgan's deep voice sounded from behind.

Chloe Grant was surprised, quickly turning back, her eyes shining.

Matthew Morgan was already pushing his luggage into the next room.

"Ah!" Chloe Grant jumped up with excitement.

Matthew Morgan, who had just opened the door to the adjacent room, heard her shout and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth as he pushed his luggage inside.
