"Whatever, I'll leave now," Vernon wore his loafers and went to the front door.
"Um… be careful on your way. I'll be waiting for you at home," Chloe said meekly, which made Vernon stop right before he opened the front door.
He felt a strange tingling sensation around his body when Chloe said that she'd wait for him, like a housewif—
Vernon took a deep breath and dispelled that idea again, he wanted to ignore his sister-in-law, but his mouth just opened before he could think;
"Go to bed first. You'll catch a cold waiting for me."
"Ah— Vernon—" Chloe was stunned by Vernon's reply because that sounded so strangely intimate coming from Vernon. But before she could ask him about it, Vernon suddenly opened the door and left before slamming it shut.
Chloe paused for a good while, then murmured, "That sounds so… warm, coming from him."
