Lucas withdrew his hand from Lily Grant's head, his expression a bit cold, "Chloe doesn't gossip."
Moreover, Matthew Morgan isn't someone who listens to gossip either.
Lily originally had her head down, and hearing Lucas defend Chloe so directly, naturally felt displeased.
But she was smart and did not argue.
When she looked up, she quickly explained, "I didn't mean it that way, my sister is really great. I... maybe was misunderstood when I was young, so I felt wronged. I didn't mean to speak ill of her."
"No, I didn't misunderstand." Lucas shook his head, and when he looked at Lily again, his gaze naturally softened, filled with affection.
He always liked this kind of soft, adorable, sensible, and gentle young girl.
However...
Lucas's expression suddenly turned a bit serious.
He looked back at the tightly closed door, rubbing his forehead, "Chloe has been in a bad mood lately."
