Chloe smiled at her daughter and nodded, "Sure, dear. I'll pack the cake for you, and we can deliver it to your Grandma Dorothea."
Chloe gave Vernon a quick glance and then walked to the fridge to retrieve the cake.
Vernon went silent instantly. His heart felt heavy knowing that a little girl like Mackie was so kind and caring to her sick Grandma while he still couldn't let go of the past.
But at the same time, his mind kept telling him not to forgive Dorothea so easily. She had to suffer for what she did to him back then. Since he couldn't hurt Dorothea physically, at least he should hurt her mentally.
She had to suffer in loneliness, knowing that her only capable son wouldn't ever accept her, and she would die with heartbreak!
Vernon didn't know what to do because his logic and conscience were fighting against each other, trying to dominate Vernon until he made a decision that he thought was right.
