Chapter 340 Chloe's Regret
Under the watchful eyes of countless people, Larry drove away in the Jeep.
Chloe was sobbing uncontrollably.
She squatted on the ground, watching the Jeep disappear into the distance, covering her mouth with her hand as tears streamed down her face.
At this moment, she knew she had forever lost a man who deeply loved her.
She had lost a man who had always protected her.
"Farewell, War God."
"War God, we await your victorious return."
It wasn't until the Jeep was out of sight that many citizens began to speak.
About ten minutes later, the area outside the Sunset City Hotel finally quieted down.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the members of the Lewis family.
The Lewis family members looked very upset.
How could they have known that the son-in-law who married into the Lewis family was actually Black Dragon? If they had known he was Black Dragon, they would have definitely tried to win his favor.
"Chloe, what's going on?" Maria asked, still in shock and unable to process what had happened. "How did that useless Larry turn out to be Black Dragon?"
Chloe continued to squat on the ground, crying incessantly.
"Chloe, what exactly is going on? Larry, is he Black Dragon?" Oscar also questioned.
"Chloe, speak up."
"Why are you just crying?"
The Lewis family members kept asking.
"I don't know, I don't know, I don't know anything."
Chloe's mind was in turmoil.
She was also stunned.
The man she had lived with day and night turned out to be Black Dragon.
She couldn't understand it.
If Larry was Black Dragon, then who was the Larry from The Serpent Group?
Who was the other Larry?
At this moment, Abigail walked over.
Chloe stood up, tears streaming down her face as she looked at Abigail, hoping for an explanation.
"Abigail, you knew all along, didn't you?"
Abigail's face was cold.
Larry was a national hero, always on the edge of danger, protecting the safety of the United States, but Chloe had broken his heart.
"Yes, I knew all along."
"Why didn't you tell me?"
Chloe shook Abigail's shoulders.
At this moment, her emotions completely erupted, and she shouted, "I treated you as a friend, but you hid everything from me. Larry is Black Dragon, why didn't you tell me? Why did you keep it from me? Do you think I'm a fool?"
Abigail looked at Chloe and said word by word, "Would it have made a difference if I told you? Do you love Larry or Black Dragon? Neither. You love the identity of Black Dragon. If Black Dragon were anyone else, you would still love him. Larry said that the person he is with you is his truest self. If you can't accept his truest self, what good would it do to tell you?"
Abigail took a deep breath.
"Chloe, do you really think Larry is short of money?"
"How many dangers have you encountered over this time? How many crises has the Lewis family faced?"
"But every time, the Lewis family managed to get through the crisis, and you were always safe."
"Isn't it because you had a War God of the United States by your side, with Larry protecting you?"
"It's because you saved him ten years ago, and because of that, he wanted to silently protect you and repay you with his time."
"And you all."
Abigail looked at the members of the Lewis family.
"Larry has helped you so much, but you still look down on him."
"Is a son-in-law always a useless person?"
"What makes the Lewis family think they deserve Larry to marry into the family?"
"What makes you, Chloe, think you deserve Larry's constant protection?"
"Who do you think you are? There are plenty of women out there who like Black Dragon. It's not like he can't find a wife."
Abigail's voice echoed.
Every word she said was like a sharp blade piercing Chloe's heart.
Oscar couldn't help but mutter, "If he had told us earlier, if he had said he was Black Dragon, how could we have treated him like this?"
As he said this, he lacked confidence.
Thinking about the cold words and ridicule he had directed at Larry during this time, he felt like a jerk.
It turned out that Larry didn't want to hold it against him.
If Larry had held it against him, he didn't know how many times he would have died by now.
"My son-in-law is Black Dragon, he really is Black Dragon?" Maria slapped her forehead in regret. "Maria, you fool, you let go of the best son-in-law in the world and drove him away."
"Do whatever you want."
Abigail gave Chloe a cold look, left a parting remark, and turned to leave.
Esmeralda saw Chloe's regretful expression and sighed helplessly. She looked at Xerxes, took his hand, and said, "Dad, let's go back, back to the North. Larry doesn't belong in Sunset City, and neither do I."
"Yes."
Xerxes nodded and left the Sunset City Hotel with Esmeralda.
Seeing Abigail leave, Chloe hurriedly called out to her, "Abigail, don't go, tell me, what should I do, what should I do?"
Abigail turned around, looking at the still-crying Chloe, and said, "You drove Larry away yourself, I can't help you. To be honest, I like him too, I love him too, but he's your husband, I can't compete with you."
"When you two divorced, I thought I had a chance, but he always had you in his heart, I could never get into his heart."
"Southwild is in crisis, he went back to fight, the battlefield is dangerous, and it's uncertain if he'll come back alive this time."
After saying this, Abigail ignored Chloe and turned to leave.
The members of the Lewis family were all filled with regret.
They hated themselves.
Hated how they had treated Larry back then.
And Chloe kept crying.
Her mind replayed all the events since Larry appeared.
From the Imperial Residence, to the Black Dragon Card engraved with Black Dragon, to the Free succession ceremony.
Along with his strength and his medical skills.
"I should have realized it earlier, I should have realized it earlier, Chloe, you're so stupid."
She cried out in self-mockery.
Meanwhile.
Larry was already in the Jeep, heading to the military district to take a special plane back to Southwild.
Frank sat beside him.
"Dragon Lord, are we really just going back like this?"
Larry looked at the buildings rapidly receding outside the window, a trace of reluctance on his face.
"Sunset City never belonged to me. This time, I came back to Sunset City to avenge my family and repay Chloe's life-saving grace, so I resolved some things."
"But you and Chloe..." Frank hesitated, then finally said, "Larry, is there really no hope for reconciliation between you and Chloe? You love her so much, how did it end up like this?"
Larry sighed helplessly.
He hadn't expected things to end this way with Chloe either.
Maybe this is fate.
At this moment, the car stopped.
A soldier got out and quickly ran over to report, "Dragon Lord, someone is blocking the road ahead."
Frank ordered, "Drive them away. If we delay important matters, can you take responsibility?"
"Understood."
The soldier was about to leave.
Larry said, "I'll go take a look."
He got out of the car.
Walking forward.
Ahead on the road stood a young woman.
The woman was about twenty years old, dressed in casual clothes, very beautiful.
"Her?"
Larry recognized the woman.
She was Trinity.
Last time, Cormac had captured Trinity to frame him, and the two had ended up having a relationship.
Trinity stood in the middle of the road, blocking the convoy's path.
Larry, dressed in his Black Dragon battle robe, walked over and stood in front of her, asking, "Why are you here?"
Trinity looked up at Larry, at the man who had once collided with her body.
"Why can't I be here? I want to go to Southwild with you."
Trinity was very bold.
She came back this time to pursue her own happiness.
She knew that if she wasn't brave, she would never have a chance.
Larry was slightly taken aback, then said, "Trinity, although I was framed, I did have a relationship with you. As a man, I have to take responsibility for what I did, but I really can't take on this responsibility right now. Give me some time. If I can come back alive after settling the war in Southwild, I'll marry you, okay?"
Larry felt deeply sorry for Trinity.
He didn't know how to make it up to her.
He could only make this promise.
