Chapter 78 As Lucas was handling the pot, the handle on the side of the boiling pot snapped off, causing the whole pot of steaming hot pasta to splash onto Lucas' waist. Lucas was severely scalded.

Chloe vividly remembered how serious Lucas' injuries were. He had a long hospital stay and even spent several days in the ICU due to a severe infection. During that time, Chloe was by Lucas' hospital bed day and night. At the worst point, the doctor mentioned that if the infection couldn't be controlled, amputation might be necessary. With tears streaming down her face, Chloe promised Lucas that even if he becdisabled, she would take care of him for the rest of her life.

After Lucas was discharged, he never brought up the incident again, nor did he tell Chloe the full extent of his injuries. This was the first tChloe saw Lucas' scars. His muscles were deformed, his skin uneven with varying depths and colors, and this was just a small part that was visible. The worst burns were on his left leg, and Chloe could almost imagine how horrific and shocking the scars must be. The memory hit her hard, and her eyes reddened as she stared at his scars.

"Luca, why would you say that? When have I ever despised you?" Chloe asked.

"You wrote it in your diary. Do you still want to argue?" Lucas' eyes were filled with sorrow. "I'm ugly. I don't deserve you." Chloe wanted to ask more, but Lucas suddenly pushed her out the door in a frenzy. "Leave, Chloe, just leave. I don't want your sympathy or your pity." Then, he slammed the door shut.

Chloe was initially going to leave, but then she ran into Tara. Tara was surprisingly happy to see Chloe and warmly held her hands. In the end, she insisted that Chloe stay the night. Considering it was already midnight, and Chloe still had things she wanted to clarify, she stayed in the next room. That night, Chloe tossed and turned, unable to sleep. What did Lucas mean? And what about his mention of her diary, what was that about? Chloe got up early in the morning. When she went to have breakfast in the dining room, she ran into Lucas. Lucas seemed to flash a barely discernible emotion upon seeing Chloe.

"Was it you who broughtback yesterday?" he asked.

Chloe, ever graceful, sat down to start breakfast. "You were drunk. Wyatt gavea call." Lucas was silent for a moment.

"Next I'll tell them we've up so they won't bother youoken Chloe's expression was indifferent. "As you wish." Lucas stared at Chloe's face. She had just woken up bare-faced, a stark contrast to her usual polished appearance. With makeup, Chloe was dazzling, like a seductive enchantress. But without it, she looked young and glowing. After a moment, he said, "I looked into the post. It was Linda's doing I don't know why she targeted you, but on her behalf, I apologize." Chloe was noncommittal and gave Lucas a glance.

He continued, "I can also compensate you. You can ask for anything." Chloe's eyebrows slightly raised. "Really, anything?" pression darkened, a

Chloe found it amusing. He was guarding himself as if she wouldn demand something extravagant.

"Don't worry, I won't ask you to leave Linda and cback to me." Lucas' frown seemed to deepen even more.
