Chapter 011 You Feel Lonely and Empty
Hogan grabbed Stacey by the wrist and dragged her all the way out of the bar.
The bodyguard opened the car door and Hogan pushed Stacey into the back seat.
“Stacey, are you that lonely and empty?” His first words were reproaches, and it was clear that she went to a bar at this time for men.
He couldn’t believe that she became so reckless after a few
years.
“I came here because Lydia called me. Do you really have to say that?” Stacey frowned. Although the relationship between them was a bit delicate now, how could he question her like
that?
“They are in danger, how can I ignore them?” Stacey’s voice raised slightly. Hogan thought she wanted to get into this situation?
“You think you can protect them?”
Stacey bowed her head and couldn’t say anything. Hogan’s words pierced into the softest part of her heart. He was right. Stacey failed to protect Norma and Lydia well but put herself in danger instead.
Although Hogan’s attitude was very bad, Stacey also knew that if Hogan didn’t show up today, the consequences would be disastrous.

So Hogan was rage because of her?
“You are too weak to protect others.”
There was a hint of sarcasm in Hogan’s cold words.
Stacey’s eyes widened wide, looking at Hogan in disbelief.
Hogan was right. If she was strong enough, why would she need Hogan’s help today? If she was strong enough, why would Hogan get her body and threaten her with what happened that night?
Stacey’s head hurt slightly, and Hogan sneered again, “Stupid
woman.”
Stacey was speechless, and after a long silence, Hogan’s cell phone rang suddenly.
It was the most original ringtone, and Stacey muttered to herself, “No taste.”
Hogan answered the phone, and a woman’s voice came faintly from inside. Stacey couldn’t hear what was said.
After Hogan hung up the phone, he kicked the back of the front car seat in front of him, “Stop.”
The car was driving very fast on the road. Hearing Hogan’s order, the driver braked suddenly. After the car squeaked and stopped, Stacey’s head hit the front seat hard.
When people were in bad luck, they could even stuff their teeth when they drink cold water.
After giving the order to the driver, Hogan turned to Stacey again, with two simple words, “Get off.”

Stacey’s expression froze for a moment, but she still opened the door and got out of the car.
The limousine next to her started immediately and sped away and it turned a corner and disappeared from her sight.
Stacey’s thoughts were suddenly filled with grievances. The woman who called should be important to Hogan, so he left her in this damn place.
Stacey walked back slowly alone, the wind was a bit cool, and the cold moonlight shone down, making the city look a little sad.
After failing to flag down several taxis in a row, Stacey called Matthew.
After a few beeps, the phone was answered by Matthew.
“Matthew.”
Hearing Stacey’s voice, Matthew felt flustered suddenly. He stood up and asked her, ” Stacey, are you okay? What happened?”
“Matthew, I…”
“Where are you?”
Stacey was cut off mid–sentence, and Matthew could hear the panic in her voice, as well as the howling wind.
“I’m on the Island Highway, and I can’t get a taxi here. Can you pick me up?”
“Why are you there? Wait for me.”

Matthew hung up the phone as he spoke, and left the room with his suit jacket in his hand. The Island Road was a single- lane mountain road with few people. It would be dangerous for Stacey to be there alone.
He drove rapidly down the road and ran through several red lights.
Matthew was worried about Stacey, but at the same time, there was a tinge of joy in his heart. At least Stacey came to him when she was in trouble. This undoubtedly proved that Stacey still had his place in her heart.
When the car stopped in front of Stacey and Matthew appeared in her sight, her heart was suddenly filled with bitterness and softness.
Not because Hogan left her, not because she was scared by the dark night, but because Matthew appeared in front of her when she needed him most.
Stacey was so moved.
“Matthew.” Stacey’s nose turned sour, and her eyes suddenly
turned red.
Matthew had always known that Stacey was not that strong as she showed, in fact, she was fragile, but she never showed it. Seeing Stacey like this, a kind of endless worry filled Matthew’s heart.
Originally, he had a lot to say, but at this moment, all of the
words were choked in his throat.
Matthew took off his coat and wrapped it around shivering Stacey.

Matthew put a finger in front of Stacey’s mouth, “It’s okay, get in the car first.”
He stroked Stacey’s head, and his gentle tone warmed Stacey’s heart.
Matthew and Hogan were two completely different people. Hogan was like an iceberg, indifferent, and domineering. As long as it was what he wanted, he would do everything to get it, even using intimidation. Stacey had a deep understanding of this.
Matthew was like the sun, he could warm her heart at any time, and as long as she needed some, he could give it to her.
“Stacey, I’m always there when you turn around.”
Matthew stared intently at the road ahead and unconsciously
said the words.
Didn’t Stacey understand his heart for so long?
