Chloe and Mackie were shocked when they heard Vernon muttering that word. Never in their life had they ever seen him as a failed man.
Vernon was a powerful man that always protected them at all costs. He always prioritized Chloe and Mackie over his safety and did everything he could to keep them safe.
Mackie wondered why Uncle suddenly cried because he hadn't done anything wrong.
She looked up to ask for an explanation from Mommy.
But Mackie was even more surprised when she saw her Mommy, who also cried.
"Mommy?" Mackie asked. "What's wrong? Why are you crying too?"
Chloe tried to wipe her tears as she stared at Vernon, who looked so disheartened. This scene greatly affected her because she thought this whole mess was her fault.
If only she listened to Vernon bring at least a dozen bodyguards.
If only she had told him it was too early to visit Judith's body in the morgue because Maria and Vincent were still hunting her.
