Chapter 164 His voice cout a bit flustered but also carried a note of surprise. "Chloe, I didn't expect you to be the one coming for the interview today. Or, I would have personally welcomed you." Chloe's smile was faint, and her tone was strictly professional. "Mr. Moncada, you're too kind. I'm just here for an interview and to gather sfootage on-site." "Alright, whatever you need, we're at your disposal." The interview went smoothly.
Chloe and Kyle planned to take sphotos around the site. Lucas quickly followed after them. "Letjoin you." Chloe's voice was indifferent. "Mr. Moncada, with your busy schedule, there's no need to accompany us." Lucas responded, "The resort is quite expansive, and there are sareas you might not be familiar with. Allowto guide you." In the end, Chloe didn't refuse, considering they were on his turf.
Lucas and Chloe walked ahead. Kyle followed behind, occasionally stopping to take pictures.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTrue to his word, Lucas took his role as a guide seriously. The site was vast and bustling even on its first day of work.
Various subcontractors had already arrived on the scene. Currently, they were cleaning up the area. Excavators, cranes, and bulldozers could be seen everywhere.
Throughout, Lucas observed Chloe's expression. From start to finish, she remained calm, her demeanor strictly professional, but she hadn't always been like this towards him.
"Chloe..." He finally couldn't help but stop in his tracks.
Chloe stopped, too, turning around, "Mr. Moncada, with our current relationship, you should probably callMs. Meadows." "Don't you want to know why I broke up with you back then?" Chloe's brow furrowed. Her voice was tinged with sarcasm. "I'm quite interested to hear this, actually." Their past was filled with mysteries. Regardless of their current relationship, the desire to know the truth was instinctive.
Regret and guilt seemed to fill Lucas' eyes. Did you know Linda could forge your handwriting? Perfectly? She stole your diary during that summer camp we attended together. She pretended to have taken it by mistake, and askedto return it to you, but I couldn't resist reading it..." By this point, Chloe had pretty much guessed what had happened next. Linda must have forged her handwriting to write something that sowed discord.
"What did Linda write that made you lose even the courage to confront me?" Chloe had her suspicions. It was probably related to that incident.
Lucas' gaze shifted, a hint of embarrassment on his face, "That diary is in the safe in my room at the Moncada family estate. You know the combination. If you want to know, you can look for yourself." Chloe replied indifferently, "Alright, I got it."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmChloe wasn't interested in seeing how Linda had tried to sow discord, but she had been investigating that incident for a long twithout any leads. She always felt Linda was involved. If Linda used that incident to drive a wedge between her and Lucas, it would surely be mentioned in the diary.
She had to check it out. She needed to fully uncover the truth.
Even after learning the truth, Chloe's expression remained indifferent, and it felt to Luca's like a cold bucket of water had been dumped on him. "Chloe, I admit I was blind. My heart
was blinded too, but Linda also manipulated me. Can you giveanother chance? I want to make up for everything I owe you." Content I X
