Chapter 422 - 402: Do You Want Lucas Hughes Dead?

When Chloe asked this question, there was silence on the other end of the phone.

She held the phone for a long time, waiting, but got no response from Harry.

She pulled the phone away from her ear and confirmed once again that the call was still connected.

Actually, even without checking, she knew the call hadn’t ended.

Otherwise, there would have been the sound of the line disconnecting.

"Harry?"

Chloe called out once more.

Still, the line was silent, with no response.

She thought, she guessed right.

Harry must know something, but is unwilling to share with her.

But what exactly does Harry know?

Chloe began to carefully recall everything that had happened since Harry contacted her.

Ultimately, Chloe couldn’t figure anything out.

There was still no sound from Harry’s end.

Chloe was ready to hang up.

But just as she put her hand on the end-call button, suddenly there was a voice on the other end.

"Hello? Chloe, my dad called just now. I picked up his call, I thought you had already hung up."

"After hanging up with my dad, I saw your call was still connected. What did you ask me? I didn’t hear."

"Nothing much, if you need to, go ahead and get busy."

"Okay, I’ll hang up then. I’m going abroad tomorrow; call me when you have time."

"Mhm, okay."

Finally, the call was hung up just like that.

Chloe didn’t ask Harry again.

Harry also acted as if he didn’t hear what was said earlier.

They both seemed to have agreed not to mention it again.

After hanging up, Chloe lay on the bed, suddenly finding herself somewhat ridiculous.

What exactly is she still hoping for in her heart?

Anyway, now there’s only one thing left for her to do, and that’s to avenge her mom.

Chloe let out a bitter smile, stopped overthinking, and closed her eyes to sleep.

She had plans with Chloe tomorrow to go out together.

But just as she closed her eyes, the phone rang again.

Chloe thought Harry had something else to say, but when she picked up the phone, it turned out to be a call from Selene Wilson.

Chloe looked at the name "Selene Wilson" on the screen.

She gripped the phone tightly, wishing her gaze could turn into knives to slice Selene a thousand times.

Before, she didn’t know that her mother’s death was caused by Selene, but now she does.

Chloe was really afraid she wouldn’t be able to hold back as soon as she answered the call.

Fortunately, the phone stopped ringing after a while.

And she let out a breath of relief.

But just as she relaxed, the phone rang again; it was Selene calling once more.

Chloe closed her eyes, took a deep breath, thinking about the revenge for her mom she still had to pursue, and the confrontation with Selene she had to engage in.

She forcibly suppressed all the hatred in her heart and answered the call.

"Hello, Miss Wilson."

"Chloe, come to my room."

Selene, still arrogant as before, commanded as soon as the call was connected, then hung up immediately.

Chloe clenched her fist, holding tight to her palm, nails gradually digging into her skin, and it was a long time before she came back to her senses, opened the door, and went downstairs.

Previously, Selene lived upstairs.

But after she was paralyzed, Soren relocated her downstairs for convenience.

When Chloe arrived at Selene’s room, the door was ajar, clearly, Selene was waiting for her.

She walked to the doorway, seeing the silhouette inside through the slightly open door, and couldn’t help but clench her fist again.

So, she kept telling herself deep down.

Know yourself and the enemy, and you will never lose a hundred battles.

Chloe, remember, the person in front of you is your mother’s killer, no matter what, you must endure.

And you must endure.

She stood at the door, taking deep breaths several times to calm her emotions before going in.

Hearing her open the door and enter, Selene turned slightly but did not turn around, still with her back to her.

"You’re here."

"Yes, Miss Wilson, what’s the matter?" Chloe nodded, expressionless as she asked.

"Chloe, seeing me like this, you must be somewhat pleased, right? After all, my legs are paralyzed. And you, with Alexander Johnson..."

Selene didn’t answer Chloe’s question, and directly started talking.

Chloe interrupted Selene before she could finish: "Miss Wilson, several days have passed, I think you are aware of the agreement between me and Mr. Johnson."
