Chapitre 271: Chapter 271

"Really? I thought you said it's nothing to worry about…." 

"W—Well, now I'm in total pain! I feel so sick! Very, very sick!" Vernon became dramatic all of a sudden. "Oh, I think I'm going to faint, my head is spinning… ugh, I think I'm going to die soon, Chloe."

"But you can sleep alone, right?" Chloe continued compromising. 

"Cough, Cough, ugh, I'm in so much pain," Vernon said while faking his cough.

'That's not how a real cough sounds like….' Chloe thought. She didn't know why Vernon became so clingy to her. 'Was it the effect of being sick? He should've done this to his girlfriend then….'

"I don't think—"

"Cough."

"Vernon, you're an adult—"

"Cough. Cough!"

"You can sleep alone—"

"Cough. Cough. Cough!"

"I—"

"Cough. Cough. Cough. Cough!"

Chloe went silent after getting interrupted by so many fake coughs. The more she tried to speak, the more Vernon faked his cough for attention.
