Chapter 496: Chapter 496

Vernon accepted the tumbler. He stared at it for a while and then looked at Chloe, who was smiling at him.

His hand trembled as he tried his best to keep it together. He had to be strong. He didn't want to be seen as a weak man who could easily be coaxed even though his spouse was cheating on him. 

"You… you don't need to do this. I don't need it," Vernon said as it was his last attempt to show Chloe that he wasn't the one she could coax.

"Eh? Why?" Chloe tilted her head. "You always love banana-apple combo in a smoothie or juice. Did you change your taste now? Tell me what you like, so I can make it for you."

"Tsk!" Vernon couldn't do this. He couldn't handle Chloe's sweetness when he was supposed to be angry. 

Whenever she smiled and stared at him with her sweet doe eyes, Vernon felt he could give up on anything as long as Chloe wanted to stay with him.
