Chapter 349 Sorry for the Trouble

Chloe, feeling weak and exhausted, thought Grant had some inappropriate intentions toward her.

"Grant, no. I'm really tired now..." she quickly protested.

After being tied up all night, Chloe was physically and mentally drained. Her arms and legs were sore and heavy from the prolonged lack of circulation.

The cold floor felt like it was freezing her body. Having just escaped from danger, Chloe had no energy or strength to deal with Grant. She could only refuse.

Seeing her in such a state, Grant chuckled softly. He reached out and gently tapped her nose. "Chloe, what are you thinking?"

"Do you really think I'm that kind of guy?"

"Relax and lie down. Let me check if you're hurt."

Realizing she had misunderstood Grant, Chloe's face turned red with embarrassment. It seemed she had indeed jumped to conclusions.

Grant carefully examined Chloe's body. After confirming she wasn't seriously injured, he grabbed some water from the boat to gently clean her up.

Starving after a whole night without food, Chloe pitifully clung to Grant's hand, her voice trembling with tears. "Grant, I thought I'd never see you again..."

Hearing Chloe's sobs, Grant felt a deep ache in his heart.

He held her close and apologized repeatedly. "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry. It's my fault. I failed to protect you well."

"But it's okay now. You're back, and you're safe."

Grant comforted Chloe for a long time before she finally calmed down.

She looked up at him with tear-filled eyes. "Grant, I'm so hungry and thirsty. Do you have anything to eat?"

Having gone without food or water all night, Chloe was completely out of energy. Upon hearing her pitiful voice, Grant's heart ached even more.

"Yes, we have some," he said. "I'll get it for you right now."
