"Stay for a moment, Chloe. I want to talk to you," Vernon said.
…
Chloe felt that her feet became itchy and wanted to leave as soon as Vernon asked her to stay.
She didn't know what he wanted to talk about, but she didn't want to listen.
Because every time they talked, there would be an agreement that would end badly between them.
'Why can't we just maintain our current status of acting like there's nothing wrong, and pretend we're in a good relationship?' Chloe said in her heart.
She wanted to say it out loud, but knowing Vernon, he'd probably get offended at her for being weak hearted.
She simply didn't want another fight. She was too tired to fight with Vernon, especially when she had problems with Vincent.
…
"Do we really need to?" Chloe asked, hoping she could avoid another conflict and get the rest she needed.
