Never Tired of Mr. Leon's Love novel Chapter 544

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?

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?"

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 longer, that's all. We're not related by blood, and we're hardly friends despite what I say.

"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.
