Chapter 2857

Lucas was about to take her inside, but Coco suddenly threw herself at him and buried her face deep into his chest.

Lucas stiffened when she hugged him suddenly, a puzzled look on his face.

"Don't push me away. Let me hug you for a while, okay? I really want to be in your arms right now," she rasped, choking with sobs.

"Did something happen?" Lucas asked, realizing she was having a little emotional breakdown.

Coco said nothing, but her hands tightened on his waist. Her body was so close to his.

Lucas stopped asking questions. Lifting his hand, he wrapped one hand around her waist and gently stroked her hair with the other. It was a quiet embrace, their warmth comforting each other.

Coco rested her face on Lucas' chest, inhaling his incredible scent. His familiar warmth was a comforting taste.

When Coco ran into trouble in university, she always told herself to be strong. There was no one else she could rely on anyway. Coco wondered if things would be different with Lucas around.
