Young Bride in a Lightning Marriage: Never Tired of Mr. Leon’s Love



Chloe felt Hudson's grip on her wrist. She tried with all her might to pull away, but it was no use.

"What are you trying to do, Hudson?"

Chloe's face turned bright red with annoyance. She really did not want to fight with Hudson in front of her colleague. It was just too embarrassing.

The roses Hudson had brought were on the floor, petals scattered around his feet. Felix could tell there was trouble, probably because Hudson had tried to do something sweet, but Chloe was not having any of it.

"Sir," Felix started to speak. Seeing Chloe trying to get away from Hudson, he quickly stepped in like a true gentleman and pulled Chloe to his side. "Let's just talk this out. No need to get physical."

Hudson stared at Felix, shocked. Could this guy and Chloe... They were wearing the same aprons, and with the way he was acting all protective, quietly pulling Chloe back to his side...

No, something was not adding up...

"Sir, what's really going on between you and Chloe?"

Felix's sharp question hit Hudson right in the heart. What business was it of his to ask about Hudson and Chloe's relationship?RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

Anger flared in Hudson's eyes. "Why do you care? She's my girlfriend!"

The words tumbled out of Hudson's mouth before he could stop them, and once said, they could not be unsaid.

However, he was not sorry. No, deep down, he knew he did not regret saying it.

Chloe's cheeks were bright red as she glared at Hudson. "Stop talking nonsense! What's gotten into you today, Hudson?"

Had she not just seen Hudson a month ago? Had he changed that much?

However, Hudson had used up all

said then, Chloe felt he was

just upset because she had not been treating him well lately.

It was not her that Hudson could not get over it was her way of always letting him get away with everything. Hudson was selfish, and Chloe was sure she could not let herself fall for his tricks again.

She was finally getting over him, and she would not let him pull her back in.

"Leave, now!"

Chloe pointed to the door, telling Hudson to go back where he came from, but the look on his face told her he was not about to leave.

"So, you'll kick me out, but you won't let your so-called colleague leave, right?"

The room went silent for a few seconds. Hudson could hear his heartbeat. It was getting faster and faster...

Hudson's heart was full of hope as he silently prayed that Chloe would say something-anything-that he wanted to hear and not the words he dreaded most.

However, when Chloe finally spoke, Hudson felt his heart shatter into a million pieces.

Her voice was clear and icy. "Yes,

you're right. Who are you to me?

We've known each other a little

blood, and we're hardly friends

"Today, you just showed up at my house and barged in against my will. You're lucky I didn't call the cops."

Chloe's words struck Hudson like a lightning bolt. It was clear that the moment she decided to walk away was the moment she gave up on him. What had he done to make her lose all hope in him? "I'm sorry... I overreacted when I saw you with another man," Hudson admitted regretfully.
