Chapter 43 Chloe scoffed, "Three years ago, didn't you know what I was going through? Yet, right when I was at my lowest, you both betrayedand threwinto hell. Compared to what you did, my little tricks are nothing." Lucas' face went rigid. "Chloe, you ended up in that mess because of your own actions. You betrayedfirst,” he said, glaring.
"What happened during that summer after our freshman year, Chloe? Can you even tell me?" Chloe's face went pale in an instant. How could Lucas possibly know? Seeing Chloe's ashen face, Lucas was visibly taken aback. Even in her panic, her beauty was striking. "So, who did you give your virginity to?" Chloe stood up, her eyes turning icy. "Shut up."

Would you have chosenif you were still the Meadows family's precious daughter?" "Now you say you lovedesperately, but it's only because you're afraid of losing your last lifeline.

"Enough, Lucas." Chloe's fingers trembled. She harbored a secret. A secret no one knew. She had convinced herself it was just a nightmare. She thought she had successfully erased it from her memory. She believed no one in the world knew.
But Chloe hadn't anticipated that Lucas had known all along. So, was this why Lucas' attitude towards her had changed so drastically? She didn't want to dwell on that incident. In fact, apart from sscars and physical injuries, her memory of it was blank.
Chloe walked straight to the door and left. As she frantically opened the door, she found Linda standing there. Chloe gave her a long, hard look. Without saying a word, she left.
Lucas also cout. "Lucas, what did you say to Chloe? She looked really upset," Linda asked.
"Nothing much. I just brought up that incident," Lucas replied.

"I didn't want to, but she pushedtoo far. Someone had to put her in her place. You're just too kind, Linda. You're even concerned about her now." Linda frowned, clearly uneasy. Chloe would surely suspect her.
Chloe drove away, her car aimlessly cruising down the highway. During the summer of her freshman year she had been violated. In truth, she didn't remember what happened that day. It seemed she had been drugged. When she woke up, she was in a hotel bed, naked. The discomfort in her body made it clear something had happened.
Later, she went to the hospital for an examination, and as she feared, she had lost her virginity. Unfortunately, because of the drugs, the events of that day had all vanished from her memory. She couldn't remember what had happened before and after she was violated. Ashburn X
