The moment Vernon heard the voice of his beloved woman, he pressed the brake so fast that he sure would cause an accident if he didn't drive in an empty gated community right now.
He stopped right across the school's parking lot and parked his car to the side while on a call with Chloe.

"C—Chloe, you—"
"I…" Chloe wanted to say that she was fine. But that was an obvious lie. Thus she tried to think of another method to calm the young man down.
Chloe was scared that Vernon might already be in Mackie's school right, and she did not want the Gray brothers to encounter each other.
So she muttered, "I'm in your office with Diamond and Mackie, can you return now?"
Vernon was about to say yes when he suddenly saw a figure of a man walking out of the school gate to the parking lot. The man was mid-thirty and covered with bruises and dried blood on his temple.
