"I don't understand, Vernon. Why did you mention my name during your drunken stupor?"
The question lingered in Chloe's mind. All this time, she was convinced that Vernon was in love with a woman he met in high school or uni when he was in Europe.
Because it made much more sense for him to find the love of his life when he was far from his family.
When he was a teenager who first knew about love in high school or university…
Now that she was faced with the possibility of being the woman in Vernon's dream, she felt… very uncomfortable.
It was hard to describe, but she didn't find it repulsive.
She just… didn't want to be put in the spotlight, 'Besides, he deserves to have a much better woman than me….'
Chloe entered the car and sat in the driver's seat in a daze.
She kept staring straight at the bar in front of her, much to Vernon's annoyance.
