Lucas Morgan clearly felt that there was some estrangement between him and this little niece.
No matter that he's put everything aside these past few days to take care of her.
The more he took care of her, the more distant she seemed.
She said it over a hundred times, "You go, I can handle it myself."
Lucas was so angry he wanted to hit her.
But when he thought about it...
Lily Grant's affairs had caused several unpleasant incidents, so her having emotions was understandable.
Lucas decided that no matter how distant Chloe Grant was, he would still take good care of her these days to make up for the past unpleasantness.
To put it bluntly, it was to mend the relationship.
This niece was very important to him, and Lucas absolutely didn't want to become estranged from her.
Thinking about this... it felt all sorts of uncomfortable in his heart.
