<h4>Chapter 258: Chapter 258: Let the Entire Hughes Family Be Buried with Them</h4>


    "Chloe, if you’d acted like this earlier, things could have been much easier. Obediently sacrificing a bit, maybe I could have shown you somepassion. Don’t go thinking I’ve done something horrible to you. After all, we’re already married."


    "Being together is the most natural thing. What I’m asking of you now is simply for you to fulfill the marital obligations you originally failed to carry out. You’ve been with Alexander so many times. Why can’t you do the same with me?"


    "Besides, we’ve been together for five years. I’ve treated you so well. Did your conscience get eaten by a dog? To think you’d be unwilling to let me have you even once! Don’t worry, I won’t harm you. Once it’s done, you can leave."


    Lucas was extremely pleased to see Chloe lying there, no longer struggling. He reached out to continue undressing her.


    Earlier, due to Chloe’s furious resistance, the two had gone back and forth, tugging at each other. Her top had already beenpletely torn apart by Lucas, not to mention her pants, which were shredded and no longer covering her properly.


    Lucas nced over and grabbed hold of her pants, yanking them off in one swift motion.


    When the pants came off, Lucas saw Chloe wearing a pure whitece lingerie set, and his eyes immediately lit up.


    "I hadn’t gotten a good look earlier. I never expected you to be wearing whitece lingerie. Chloe, in all the time we were together, I’ve never seen you wear anything like this."


    "Tsk, tsk, look at you now, dressed in whitece, you look just like a delicate little white flower, just begging to be crushed and ravaged! But don’t worry, I’ll restrain myself a bit. Besides, before I proceed, I’m definitely capturing this moment."


    Lucas, utterly thrilled to see Chloe in whitece for the first time, pulled out his phone and snapped shot after shot.


    After taking the photos, he spent a moment appreciating what he’d captured before setting the phone aside.


    Then, Lucas began to reach for Chloe’s lingerie to remove it.


    By this point, his excitement was so overwhelming that even his fingers were trembling.


    Seeing his long-time wish finally about toe true, knowing he’d have his way with this woman tonight, it was impossible for Lucas not to be overjoyed.


    Truly, he was beside himself with emotion.


    Even the sp on her lingerie took him several tries to undo—his hands trembling with eagerness.


    For five years, Lucas had been impotent, terrified Chloe might discover his condition. Because of this, he had avoided any deep physical intimacy with her in the past.


    Let alone actually seeing Chloe’s bare body.


    Thus, at this moment, Chloe to Lucas was like a woman he’d known for so long but never managed to possess.


    Underneath the lingerie, to him, her softness was something he’d longed for with all his being, yearning to savor and then ravage.


    Steadily and delicately, Lucas started to unfasten Chloe’s lingerie, his gaze fixed intently, anticipating the reveal of the alluring curves beneath.


    But just then, an abrupt "bang" resonated from the door.


    "Who the hell—?"


    Lucas, assuming it was someone knockingte at night, got up and walked out. Looking up at the figure who’d entered, his face immediately drained of color.


    It was Alexander Johnson. He had kicked the door down, his face seething with fury, resembling a devil resurrecting from hell, utterly terrifying.


    "Y-Young Mister Johnson! Why... why are you here?"


    Lucas could not fathom how Alexander would show up at this precise moment.


    "Where’s Chloe?" Alexander demanded as soon as he spoke.


    "What? Chloe? I don’t know—"


    Lucas still attempted to feign ignorance. But before he could finish speaking, a noise came from the master bedroom—a heavy thud.


    Alexander immediately rushed toward the bedroom, where he found Chloe on the floor, d only in her underwear, the sp at the back undone. Her head was bleeding profusely.


    "No, Young Mister Johnson! This has nothing to do with me. I just wanted to be with her, that’s all. I didn’t do anything to her! She ran into the wall herself—I neverid a hand on her."


    Lucas frantically exined, his words tumbling over one another.


    "Lucas Hughes, listen to me. If anything happens to Chloe, I’ll see to it that your entire Hughes Family pays the price."


    Alexander approached Chloe, removed his jacket, covered her with it, and carried her out of the room.


    "No, Young Mister Johnson, please listen to me! I swear, this isn’t my fault. You know how long Chloe and I were together. Wanting to be close to her is perfectly reasonable, isn’t it?"


    "Besides, you haven’t reached out to her recently, not even a phone call. I thought you’d already lost interest in her, so I invited her out tonight."


    Lucas followed after Alexander, attempting to justify himself incessantly.


    At this moment, Jack Woods hurried over.


    "Jack, take him away first. Once I’ve taken Chloe to the hospital, I’ll deal with him," Alexandermanded brusquely, carrying Chloe away to the hospital.


    An hourter, the doctors hadpleted all tests and administered an IV drip. Standing before Chloe’s hospital bed, they looked deeply troubled. "By all ounts, she should be awake by now."


    "Then why isn’t she awake yet? What’s going on?" Alexander’s voice was grim, his expression dark.


    "Um, Young Mister Johnson, please wait a little longer. She will definitely wake up by tomorrow morning at thetest," the doctor quickly reassured, cautiously.


    Alexander gave a weighty nod. "Alright. But if she isn’t awake by tomorrow morning, I’ll hold you personally responsible."


    The entire night, Alexander stayed beside Chloe’s hospital bed, not stepping away for a single moment.


    At ten in the morning the next day, Chloe finally regained consciousness.


    Seeing her awake, Alexander immediately spoke up, "You’re awake. How are you feeling now?"


    "I... what happened? Why am I in the hospital? What on earth happened?"


    Confused, Chloe nced around the hospital room and asked.


    Alexander quickly followed up, "You don’t remember anything fromst night?"


    Chloe lookedpletely puzzled. "Last night... What happened?"


    Alexander’s face turned as dark as ink, and he bellowed, "Doctor! Bring someone here!"
