Chapter 44 Find out Everything Anna Did to Chloe

Roy was surprised. After all, the most important person to Luke over the past two years had been Anna. He pressed further, asking. Mr. Bolton, what exactly are you looking into?"

"I need to know how Chloe's child died and what she did to Chloe behind my back, Luke replied, his voice growing tense.

Luke's brow furrowed tighter, his conflicting emotions written across his face.

He wanted to uncover the truth but feared that the truth might be too cruel. It could shatter the mask he had built around his feelings for Anna, a mask that shielded him from the reality of his past actions. The more Anna proved herself unworthy, the more it reflected how deeply he had hurt me. In this, he had played a shameful part.

He had no choice but to add, "Also, make arrangements for me to go abroad as soon as possible."

"Of course. It's already late. You should get some rest," Roy said.

Luke's flight was scheduled for the next afternoon, but he still had a mountain of things to handle.

So, instead of heading home, he dragged his exhausted body to his suite, where he intended to take a short

TEST.

I hadn't been here in a long time. The place had changed significantly since I was last here. The photo of me and Luke had been replaced with one of Luke and Anna.

The sheets were in the floral pattern Anna liked, and items belonging to her were scattered around the

room.

Luke, already drained, froze when he saw that everything in the suite was related to Anna,

He sat on the bed, one hand tugging at his tie, lighting a cigarette.

His appearance was both weary and desolate as he stared at the photo on the nightstand, not blinking

once.

Perhaps he was starting to realize how strange it was. This was supposed to be my place with him, but now, it was filled with traces of Anna. What was I to him now?

He finished the cigarette. Instead of washing up, he grabbed a tote bag and stuffed everything that belonged to Anna in
