Chapter 549
Everything was so quiet for a moment that Lucy could hear her own heart thumping. She wondered if Chloe would find out Hudson sent her and just send her away.
"Hudson?" Chloe looked a little funny, but she did not kick Lucy out.
"You're not mad, are you, Chloe?" Lucy had only met Chloe that day, but she seemed nice, even though Hudson had complained about her.
Chloe gave Lucy a chocolate bar, placing it softly in her hand. "This chocolate is super sweet," Chloe said, staring at Lucy like they had not just been talking about Hudson.
Lucy felt nervous holding the chocolate, but she tried it anyway. It was as sweet as Chloe said, really sweet.
"Can I call you Lulu?" Chloe asked, not even noticing Lucy's worried look. She was trying to make Lucy feel better.
"Sure, that's okay," Lucy said, a bit dazed.
"You're not scared I'll send you away, are you?"
Chloe's smile made Lucy sit up straight. "Am I going to be sent away?"
Lucy sat up tall and looked at Chloe, wondering if she was really about to be sent away.
"Don't worry, I won't be rude. I know you're here with good intentions."Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Chloe's smile was stunning, especially her big, bright eyes. When she looked at Lucy, her gaze was so intense that Lucy could not look away.
It was no surprise Hudson could not stop thinking about Chloe. Even Lucy found her irresistible, and Hudson, well, he was not exactly the sharpest when it came to love.
Lucy cleared her throat and said,
"Chloe, I'm here because of Mr. Xender He really wants to chat with you, but you've been ignoring him, so he asked me to come talk to you.
"I know it's sudden, but Mr. Xender didn't know what else to do, so he thought up this silly plan."
Lucy tried her best to take the blame, hoping Chloe would not be too mad at Hudson.
"I should've known only Hudson would come up with something like this."
Chloe popped another piece of chocolate into her mouth. It was so sweet it almost made her teeth hurt, but inside, she felt a strange bitterness. "You're not mad at me, are you?" Lucy asked, worried.
"Why would be mad at you? I know you're just here to watch Hudson make a mess of things." Chloe gave a wry smile. "Getting you involved in this mess, Hudson sure has some funny ideas, that goofball."
"Chloe..."
Lucy could tell Chloe was feeling a lot better, but Chloe still had a sharp tongue when it came to Hudson. "I know Hudson too well. He just
misses his little shadow-mei nét
being there for a bit. He's got a big ego and can't handle me leaving him behind."
"Chloe, I really don't think it's like that. Mr. Xender is..."
"Let's drop it, Lulu. I'm just happy to have you as my friend. We can talk about Hudson some other time."
