Chloe completely ignored Vernon and went out of the office, leaving Vernon alone, wondering what went wrong with his sentence.
"Did I say something wrong? She is obviously suffering from bulimia, just looking at her reaction," Vernon murmured. "If she keeps everything bottled up, how am I supposed to help?"
He sighed and put the plate on the table. He was gentle to her and even tried his best to be patient despite Chloe acting like a difficult child.
Vernon also noticed that Chloe thoroughly enjoyed her lunch, but when he confronted her about her eating disorder, she immediately retreated and became extremely guarded again.
He thought he had become his best version and was entitled to obtain all the information he wanted from Chloe.
"This is like playing a cat and mouse game. I keep luring her out by acting nice, but whenever I want to catch her, she would retreat and hide inside her hole again," Vernon murmured.
